Homestays w: Xinjiang, China

We absolutely loved our stay at Jiangyun, our room was comfortable, clean, big and nicely decorated. The hotel is in a beautiful traditional building, and within walking distance or a very cheap DIDI ride to all attractions. The best part about our stay was the kindness and friendliness of Yan and Rukia, they went out of their way to provide information for us and help organise onward travel to Kyrgyzstan. Yan speaks good English and with his adept use of a translator app we were able to communicate on all topics. When we couldn’t find a cooking course in Kashgar Yan organised a neighbourhood chef to come and teach us how to make steamed buns, in the guesthouse kitchen, it was great fun! Can’t recommend enough, Tim

My family of 4 had the best stay at this hotel! When we arrived, the staff stood by the door and greeted us warmly. As the weather fell to extreme lows during the period we were staying there, the heater was unable to keep the tents warm enough.As such, the staff graciously upgraded us to a family room inside the building. The view was absolutely stunning from the room. When the sky is clear, you can even see stars from their rooftop! The room itself was extremely clean and tidy, while the bathroom was very well equipped. The beds were large and extremely comfortable, and there was even a humidifier in the room which was perfect for the cold and dry weather. The service of the staff was exceptional. My husband and son experienced altitude sickness upon our arrival at the hotel, and they took extremely great care of them, even cooking them a warm meal. They even provided us with snacks before we left for our day trip. On our last night, they invited us to have dinner together. The staff prepared a home-cooked meal which was very delicious. During the duration of our stay, the staff took exceptional care of us and made us feel at home. Even as we checked out, they gave us a farewell gift as a token of appreciation. I highly recommend this hotel to all travellers! This was truly a great stay, and thank you to the staff who was committed to ensuring that my family had an amazing stay here!

Ten B&B sprawił, że poczuliśmy się ciepło, kiedy zameldowaliśmy się tego samego dnia. Szef osobiście nas odebrał, pomógł nam nieść bagaże i przedstawił cechy starożytnego miasta. Kiedy weszliśmy do B&B, szef przygotował dla nas nawet arbuzy , co dało nam smak domu. Pensjonat znajduje się po przeciwnej stronie internetowej listy gwiazd. Pokój jest czysty, schludny i ciepły, a dojazd i wyjazd ze starożytnego miasta jest bardzo wygodny. Są też specjalne zdjęcia możliwości w B&B! Spokojna noc pozwala na spokojny sen. Porozmawiajmy o szefie. Jest gościnny i kompetentny. Po południu wszyscy razem rozmawialiśmy i dzieliliśmy się swoją podróżą w zakresie przedsiębiorczości oraz kulturą Xinjiangu. Ponieważ podobało nam się środowisko B&B i szczera gościnność szefa, pozwolił nam zostać jeszcze kilka razy. Czuję się jak w ciepłej rodzinie. B&B był dla mnie niespodzianką podczas tej podróży. Spotkałam inne krajobrazy i doświadczyłam innego życia. To wzbogaciło podróż i pozostawiło niezapomniane wspomnienia. Życzę szefowi pomyślnego biznesu! Zarabiać!

La Turpan West impression home stay ressemble à un petit palace. La chambre que j'ai occupée est particulièrement spacieuse,calme,bien éclairée,d'une propreté irréprochable .Je me permets aussi de préciser que la qualité de l'accueil est tout à fait irréprochable. Un bémol toutefois,le ménage est fait un peu tardivement dans la journée alors qu'on est déjà rentré de l'excursion.

Personally, I would like to give 6 stars 🌟 It is one of the best boutique hotels I’ve stayed in across many countries. The highlight of my stay is definitely the exceptional service from every staff member. They are efficient, polite, friendly, and genuinely warm. The hotel’s design is unique, with each room having a different layout and high standard of furnishings. Rooms are spacious, spotless, and most importantly, completely free of any smoke smell, which is rare to find in China. It’s also incredibly quiet at night, giving me a wonderful restful sleep. The location is great, within walking distance to several tourist spots and only about 20 minutes from the city centre, easily accessible by Didi or taxi. A heartfelt thank you to all the staff for making my Xinjiang journey complete with such a wonderful stay and memorable experience. Please 🙏🏻 keep the standard as excellent as it is now.

hotel is very well designed with local authentic style, very convenient to get in because it is close to the south gate of ancient town. The receptionist is very helpful, very friendly, the first day when we arrived the hotel sent receptionist to the gate to help us carry our luggages and took us inside. This is the ancient town so you need to get luggages checked through security scanning machine. The ancient town is very beautiful and it is a must visit when you come to South Xinjiang. In general we feel very comfortable and convenient to stay in this home stay. First night as the hotel was full so we had to stay in a small room, but when we came back after several days they provided us a big room, I can feel their care to the guests and tried to serve at their best

Staff was friendly and helpful. Room was spacious and beds are comfortable. Breakfast in pack (boil egg, steam pumpkin, sweet potato & bum, small portion of vegetable, fresh plums and a cup of soya) simple and delicious.

Our stay at the Shar Starry Sky Glamping camp in Karajun Grassland was a truly rejuvenating and luxurious experience! The camp is nestled in the core area of a World Natural Heritage site, offering breathtaking views. From our window, we could see vast grasslands and continuous snow-capped mountains – the scenery was absolutely stunning. The starry dome we stayed in was incredibly impressive. It offered unobstructed panoramic views, allowing us to watch the grassland sunset right from our bed. At night, with no city light pollution, the Milky Way was clearly visible, and the provided telescope made stargazing super convenient – the kids absolutely loved it. Both the owner and the staff were incredibly attentive and thoughtful, responding 24/7. They even offered stargazing explanations. The camp provides excellent privacy, with ample space between each room, making it quiet and comfortable. Breakfast was rich and authentic, featuring traditional flatbread (nang) and fresh milk – the grassland cuisine was delicious. Away from the hustle and bustle, falling asleep under the stars and waking up to the view of snow-capped mountains – this is what a true luxury wilderness getaway should be. Highly recommended!

Amazing hostel! Beautiful building and a very inviting common area. Everyone is talking to each other, it’s so easy to meet people :) I wish I could have stayed longer. Unfortunately they don’t accept foreigners anymore :(
