3-Star Hotels in Gansu, China

Overall a wonderful stay at Oasis Glamping. I can think of so many pros after staying here for 3 days/2 nights. There are only 2 things I wish were a slight bit better but it’s definitely just small things. Pros: 1. The staff is super welcoming and attentive. I had a warm welcome when I checked in and you can contact the staff at any time of the day and they are always super helpful. 2. The location of Oasis Glamping is also wonderful. It gives the feeling you are at a luxury private resort in the desert. Once you arrive at the front desk a driver picks you up and drives you into the desert about 1km from the front desk. It’s a short drive but it really allows you to actually feel the desert. Also going to Mingsha mountain and crescent lake is only about a 10 minute drive away. 3. Rooms are clean and cozy. I stayed in the R room and the room was extremely clean when I arrived, views were great, the room came with all of the amenities (tv, couches next to a desk that you can adjust the height of, king size bed, big windows next to both sides of the bed that’s perfect for stargazing at night. I was also greeted with instant noodles and 10 bottles of water which was super helpful. 4. Housecleaning was super quick and helpful. Around noon housekeeping would come by and restock your water and instant noodles and toiletries and also do a quick cleaning. Super fast cleaning but it was also super thorough. I’ve tracked some sand into the room and by the time housekeeping was done it was spotless. Also housekeeping staff were super nice and gave tips on when to head outside to avoid the heat and also nearby attractions. 5. Attractions on Oasis Glamping. Unlike a typical hotel, oasis glamping actually offers a few different fun activities most notably sand boarding. Behind where the rooms are, there is mountains of sand which you can climb up with the sandboards that are free to use and are stationed in convenient places. Once you climb up these sand mountains you get some of the most beautiful views especially during sunset. They also offer a free 3 minute ATV ride into the nearby desert and you can buy other packages that offer longer routes and at night there is a campfire with fireworks that occurs a short hike from your room. I think they also offered desert photography but I was too busy enjoying the other activities that I mentioned. 6. Small things that really stood out. After spending a day in the sand you’re very likely to have sand in your hair. The shampoo and conditioners in the showers not only smell great but also doesn’t leave your hair dry which I personally find super helpful. Other small things include having staff deliver your food straight to your room which I was extremely thankful for. Outside of the room there are two small chairs and a decent size camping table which a lot of guest including me used at night to either play cards or simply just sit and stargaze. These are all of the pros of staying here. Below are the 2 cons I talked about above. 1. The toilet is a bit wobbly when you sit on it. Honestly it’s not a huge problem more of just a minor inconvenience. 2. The WiFi is a bit laggy at certain times of the day. But it also makes sense because everyone might be using the same WiFi when they come back to the rooms. So it’s totally understandable and definitely doesn’t ruin the experience of staying here. Overall I would give Oasis Glamping a 10/10! Staff were super nice and staying here was super comfortable and I definitely would stay here again when I come back to Dunhuang. If you are looking for a place to stay in Dunhuang I highly recommend Oasis Glamping

The hotel facilities are exceptionally complete. The entire room was clean and tidy, with a full range of toiletries and stable water pressure in the shower. The air conditioning worked very well, and all the furniture and appliances were provided. It was a comfortable and hassle-free stay, an absolutely fantastic experience.

Out of our 9-day trip along the Qinghai-Gansu Loop, this homestay was our family's absolute favorite. It's a place with real heart and soul, where every detail is thoughtfully considered. Even our five-year-old said he'd give this hotel 30 stars! The homestay has a great design aesthetic, and the rooms are spotless, perfectly matching the tastes and ideas of younger travelers. We always bring our own disposable toiletries when we travel, but here, everything was already provided in the room. I also really loved the landlady – she's just one of those people you instantly like, and it was so comfortable interacting with her. From the moment we checked into the homestay in Dunhuang, we had such a positive impression of the city. Even though our stay was brief, it's full of beautiful memories. When we were leaving, she found out my child liked apricots and even gave him some from her own yard, which was incredibly touching. The breakfast offered a wide variety, and it was all very enjoyable. I truly recommend this homestay if you're coming to Dunhuang. I hope everyone gets to experience the genuine warmth and hospitality during their travels here. Their raisins are also highly recommended!

The hotel is easy to find; navigation takes you right to the entrance. There's ample parking both in front and in the back courtyard, which is super convenient for those traveling by car—no need to worry about finding a spot. Even though it was a holiday with many guests, after checking in, the residential building beyond the lobby was very quiet with good soundproofing, allowing for a restful stay. It's understandable that the hotel was busy during the holiday, and overall, the cleanliness was good, making for a comfortable and accommodating experience.

Overall, the experience was quite good. It's the off-season now, so the price-performance ratio is very high. The parking lot is right at the hotel entrance. The service was very warm and patient. The hotel was also quite clean and tidy, and the elevator was very convenient.

Located right at the foot of Danxia Mountain, it's incredibly convenient for visitors to go stargazing after exploring the Danxia landscape. The owner is very welcoming and even helped guests take stunning starry sky photos late at night. The sky was full of stars, and the Milky Way was visible to the naked eye. The yurts are equipped with heaters and fans. The shared bathrooms are quite clean, and there were many foreign guests staying here. Breakfast is a blend of Chinese and Western options, quite plentiful for a B&B, showing the owner's dedication.

A cozy B&B by Mingsha Mountain with an amazing lamb noodle soup for breakfast! I booked this ”No. 23 Courtyard” through Trip.com in Dunhuang, and it exceeded my expectations. Definitely deserves a great review. 📍Location: It's very close to Mingsha Mountain Scenic Area, only a 7-yuan taxi ride away. Super convenient for catching both sunset and sunrise, saving a lot of travel time. 🏡Environment: There's a charming little courtyard. I had breakfast sitting under a tree one morning, and the owner and his daughter (just home for vacation) even picked some local specialty Li Guang apricots for us to try, sharing an interesting legend. Although I heard a few dog barks at night (their dog Chopper was on duty!), the owner explained it was foxes visiting, which actually added a touch of wilderness charm. 🛏️Accommodation: The room was clean and tidy, and very quiet at night. A pleasant surprise was the fully automatic, heated smart toilet. The towels were also thick, new plush ones, making for a comfortable and reassuring stay. 🍜Breakfast: It's a set menu, and I have to rave about the lamb noodle soup – fresh, delicious, and warming. The five-spice tea eggs were also very flavorful. The owner eats the same food as the guests, which shows the quality of the ingredients. 🍵Afternoon Tea: They surprisingly offer it for free, which is rare for a B&B. Big plus! Overall, it's a comfortable, clean B&B with a family-like atmosphere and great value for money. I'd definitely consider staying here again on my next trip to Dunhuang.

Close to the station, which is convenient for transfers. The room is small but sufficient for a stay, especially with kids and elderly.

Thanks to the owner and his family for a wonderful day in Zhagana. We didn't go anywhere, just sat on the balcony with my family, drinking tea and chatting, watching the clouds drift by and the breeze gently swaying the petals. It was refreshing and wonderful. The air in Zhagana in the morning is fresh and moist. It's beautiful here without having to do anything. The hotel room facilities are very useful, with a smart toilet, a vertical air conditioner, a warm shower, and a comfortable bed and pillows.

Checked in on New Year's Eve. Two wind towels were given as a gift when I checked in. I took a photo of it specially because it was my favorite color, hehe. Cleanliness: The room was surprisingly clean. No weird smell. Facilities: Free toiletries are provided. The bathroom is spacious. The eco-friendly slippers are comfortable, but you can’t take them away. Environment: Entering the hall, it is cozy, warm and the heating is very good. Service: The beauties in the lobby are enthusiastic and warm. To emphasize, heating is very good in winter. The bedding was clean and tidy. We stayed for two days and went out to the scenic spot on the second day. They cleaned and tidied the room without any request. It is convenient to eat. There is an authentic beef noodle restaurant opposite the hotel, a convenience store next door, and a large supermarket around the corner, which is open on New Year's Eve. A perfect trip to Dunhuang! Dunhuang of the world, where my heart longs for!
