Hotels in Xining Railway Station, Xining

Took us some time to understand how things function in the room, but we finally got it. We missed the AC most. Although the city is at almost 2300 m alttitude, it can get hot in the summer and there's only a narrow window in the room. Too little to cool it over the night. No fridge means no cold drinks either. And also the shower nozzle is not fully functional. Water is fighting its way out of that 😵 But there is a nice lobby and also the room looks good. We did get a surprise snack around 10.00 pm. All put together I would say 'Better try one of the other hotels in the neighbourhood.'

My last night in Xining, I chose this hotel mainly because it's close enough to the train station. The hotel's underground parking lot seems to have a limited number of spaces (similar to the Holiday Inn Express I stayed at before). You need to get a handwritten pass from the front desk to enter and exit without paying for parking. I arrived around 3:30 PM, and they said the room was still being inspected, so I had to wait a bit before getting the room card. The front desk also gave me two complimentary vouchers for afternoon tea on the top floor. I checked it out later, and honestly, it felt less impressive than the breakfast's dessert, fruit, and beverage selection. 😅 I got a room on the 20th floor with views of the mountains to the north and south of Xining, so I guess you could call it a ”mountain view + city view” room. Breakfast was pretty standard. The local specialties from Qinghai were 'sanzi' and 'huahua' (I think that's what it was called, also a fried starchy food). Similar to other HUAZHU hotels I've stayed at, this one had many tourists from eastern China. Around 8 AM, the restaurant and elevators became particularly crowded. Goodbye, Xining! 👋

It was well worth the effort to carefully select this hotel in Xining. The facilities are comprehensive and new. Its location is central to all attractions, yet not directly on a main road, making it very convenient – a quiet oasis in a bustling area. The breakfast was decent, and both the front desk and room service were excellent. The room's air conditioning is a central system, so the temperature (hot/cold) couldn't be adjusted. With Xining being a bit chilly in the mornings and evenings, it was actually warmer with the AC turned off these past few days.

The price really threw me off, it didn't match my expectations for an Orange Hotel. It was comparable to their hotels in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai. I figured it was due to peak season, which I could understand, even though there aren't many tourists this year. The main issue was the air conditioning, which was on a timed schedule, but I couldn't even use it. The pipe was in the ceiling right by the entrance, and I guess air got trapped, because there was a constant draining noise. It woke me up after I'd finally fallen asleep at night. I couldn't take it anymore. At 12:42 AM, I called the front desk, and a technician came up to turn off the valve. Manual silence, I guess... Then I had to rush out for my itinerary early the next morning. 😫 My bad, I was out exploring all day and got back to the room too late to notice the issue sooner. Three days later, back in Xining, I downgraded to a budget hotel, and wow, it was actually pretty good!

It was difficult to find the hotel in the first place when we stepped out of the taxi as we need to enter the building, go up to the 9th floor. Before, we asked surrounding locals ans they had no idea where was our hotel even :) The room were really spacious for 4 people. However, there were one queen bed for, and one big single bed which were not enough for 4 people to sleep in. Also, the room in reality didn't match at all the illustrated images. I suggest the hotel to be more honest with how their rooms look like so future guests wont be shocked as I was in the first place. Nevertheless, the hotel location was excellent. Next to the train station, to the market streets, surrounding mosques and Nanshan Park. We had a great time in Xining.

The hotel's location is excellent, right next to Xining Station, making transportation very convenient. The room was brand new, clean, and spacious, with a large desk perfect for eating or working. The hotel upgraded our room, which made for a very satisfying experience!

The room was very clean and well-designed. It was particularly convenient for business trips, and the transportation was excellent. I'll definitely stay here again. I stayed in Xining for 7 days, and this was my favorite place.

This was my second stay at the hotel, and it felt just as familiar and relaxing as the first time. It's still incredibly clean and hygienic. The breakfast spread is fantastic, with everything from beef noodles to bread, jams, and fruit salad. I even managed to hit the gym 3 times on this trip – it was great! I'll definitely be back if I get the chance. The only minor issue is that the room gets a bit dry and too warm in winter. Could you possibly provide thinner duvets or add a humidifier?

This was my first time staying in Xining; usually, I just passed through on road trips. I booked this hotel because it was close to the Provincial People's Hospital, where I had some business. I got the largest room. After registering my phone number at the front desk, I could use a WeChat mini-program to open the door and even control the room lights. Everyone says hotels in Xining don't have air conditioning, but this one actually does – good foresight, I guess! The front desk service was excellent. I asked for recommendations for places to visit, and after work, I walked to the nearby Xiaguan Night Market. It was within walking distance, and I ate so much I was stuffed when I got back. I've already saved this hotel on my phone's map for future reference.

The room was spotless and odor-free, with soft bedding that ensured a good night's sleep. The hot water supply was ample, and the soundproofing was excellent. The front desk staff were warm and efficient, making check-in and check-out a breeze. The location is super convenient for getting around, and it offers fantastic value for money. This will definitely be my top choice for future stays.
