Hotele z: Pools w Ningxia, China

The hotel's location is excellent, right next to the Ningxia Museum. The rooms are spacious with a smart layout, and the bathroom is particularly large. This time, I booked an Executive King Room, and the food at the Executive Lounge's Happy Hour was exquisite and delicious. From the high floor, the panoramic view of Yinchuan city was incredible. The hotel breakfast is plentiful, with many Ningxia local specialties, and the service is very attentive. The Baicao Lamb Hotpot on the third floor of the hotel is absolutely delicious and a must-try. All in all, the JW Marriott Hotel Yinchuan comes highly recommended!

I stayed at the Kempinski Yinchuan for two consecutive nights, and overall, it was a very solid experience – the kind of comfortable stay where nothing goes wrong, and you even get a few pleasant surprises. The location is genuinely convenient. Just cross the road to your right, and you're at the Ningxia Museum. It was perfect for a stroll and then coming back to relax. The room was clean and spacious, and the bedding was just right – not too soft, not too firm. I slept soundly both nights. Service was prompt too; whether I needed water or something delivered, there was no delay. The breakfast bread station really impressed me. Both the croissants and the whole wheat toast were perfectly baked – crispy on the outside, soft on the inside. Paired with a black coffee, it was simply delightful. It's not over-the-top, and there's nothing to complain about. It's the kind of reliable choice where you think, 'I'd definitely stay here again next time I visit.'

I was looking for a hotel that would be comfortable for introverts – a place where I could relax, enjoy the scenery, people-watch, observe the wind, birds, and insects, with minimal interaction but genuine service, and quick responses when needed. serendipitously, I found it this time. A few days before check-in, the housekeeper set up a WeChat group to inquire about our arrival method and dining reservations. After check-in, we received reminders and activity notifications. Before bed, we got a night reminder and the on-duty staff's phone number. Throughout, there was no unnecessary chatter or disturbance, and face-to-face interactions were warm and sincere. Upon entering the manor, the May grapevines were still slowly growing, and all I saw was a vast expanse of loess. However, stepping into the lobby, the contrast was striking – an indoor tropical garden! Staghorn ferns, banana trees, vines, orchids, and other plants thrived beautifully; some banana trees even bore fruit. The restaurant on the second floor offered a panoramic view of the Helan Mountains, with the side profile of the Reclining Buddha clearly visible. If the weather was good, we could enjoy the sunset from the restaurant, watching the sun slowly disappear behind the mountains, painting the sky with brilliant hues. While the accommodation already met my expectations, the restaurant's delicious food was truly a pleasant surprise. Perhaps it's my stereotype, but I've always felt that guesthouse restaurants tend to be a bit pricey and the food generally mediocre. Who would have thought that the dinner was so good that my family and I decided to book lunch for the next day before we even finished eating? For dinner, we ordered stewed lamb from Yanchi, scrambled eggs with sand onion, and 'tangmian youxiang' (half portion). For lunch the next day: 'chuanzui' carp, fragrant goji berry shoots, and lamb buns or dumplings? Oh, I forgot… The taste was on par with, or even surpassed, well-known old restaurants in the city. (Two dishes and one staple were more than enough for two people – I was stuffed! Order moderately, don't be as gluttonous as me!) Finally, a big thank you to our housekeeper Niu Niu, store manager Li Yang, and the other staff members. Niu Niu was always enthusiastic and polite in all our interactions, always greeting us with a smile. Store manager Li Yang provided detailed explanations during the evening wine tasting, ensuring everyone felt included (even us in the corner, hahaha!). And to the other young people whose names I can't recall but whose brief encounters left an impression: the girl who led us on the cellar tour; the clear-eyed young man who diligently used a lint roller to pick up stray hairs in each room; and the curly-haired guy who effortlessly lifted our luggage when we got out of the car. Also, the sisters in the restaurant – every single person made me feel genuinely welcome, polite, and never intrusive. I'm already looking forward to my next visit with friends for a longer stay!

The room environment feels comfortable, the hotel is in a good location, and the transportation is generally convenient. Duoduo at the front desk said that there is Hengdian Cinema nearby. We went to the snack street in the evening, which is not far from the hotel and can be reached in a few minutes on foot. The room is comfortable and sanitary, the front desk and room attendants are happy to provide all kinds of help, the facilities are very smart, and the price-performance ratio is good. It is the first choice for next stay.

Our first night was in a capsule room, which was quite spacious and comfortable for adults, and the kids really enjoyed it. For the second and third nights, we moved to a different room. Half of the curtains didn't block out light, the toilet constantly ran 24/7, and the shower would suddenly turn completely cold every three minutes or so. It was really terrible; it might just be a hardware issue with that particular room.

This hotel is perfect for young children. My little one absolutely loved the courtyard, the hot tub, and the second-floor terrace. Stepping out of the courtyard, you're right on the dunes, perfect for endless digging – they were even happier than when they first saw the ocean! The hotel's public facilities are excellent; they even have a proper hydraulic-driven excavator experience. The environment is beautiful and great for photos. The overall design is a Moroccan rammed earth style, similar to what you'd find in Marrakech or Ouarzazate, which is quite rare in China. The stargazing conditions in Zhongwei are superb. If you love the night sky, you can't go wrong here. However, there were a few areas that weren't so great. First, there was an abundance of commercial photo shoots, which really detracted from the vacation feel. Second, the service level could be improved. While all the staff were very polite, the management and process design need work. Third, the food quality was not good. Breakfast was entirely buffet-style, with the only live station being noodles. There was no à la carte menu at all. The buffet and à la carte options for lunch and dinner were also disappointing, a significant mismatch given the room rates.

Very close to Lanshan. Convenient small restaurants and supermarkets downstairs. A short taxi ride to the high-speed rail station. The breakfast was plentiful, delicious and tasty. Even though there were many guests during the summer, the management was smooth. The front desk even gave out lollipops.

My partner and I came to Yinchuan for the weekend. We booked the hotel on a whim, and it turned out to be the highlight of the entire trip. The room had a warm color scheme and layered lighting, unlike some hotels that are just stark white. In the afternoon, we snuggled up on the sofa by the window, basking in the sun and daydreaming, neither of us saying a word, but it felt incredibly comfortable. We had dinner at the hotel restaurant, ordering a plate of hand-pulled lamb and a cold salad with wild onions. The lamb was tender and not ***** at all, and the wild onions were crisp and refreshing—even more authentic than what you'd find at trendy restaurants. After dinner, we took a walk hand-in-hand around the hotel. The evening breeze was gentle, and the streetlights cast a warm glow. There weren't any special plans, but every moment felt blissful.

The hotel facilities and hardware are good, the rooms are spacious, and the breakfast is rich. The only thing that is surprising is the service attitude, especially at the front desk. During the entire check-in, the person was cold and dejected, as if she owed her two buckets of rice. Breakfast The waiter also had no sense of service. When asked if there were fried eggs, the answer was no. The machine was broken, as if it was a matter of course. Western pastries were provided for breakfast, but no knives and forks were provided. I had to spread the bread with my mouth and dig out the jam with chopsticks! As a service industry, I believe this is closely related to the general manager of the hotel. I hope it will attract attention!

I highly recommend the Anmo Hotel Helanshan! The hotel is nestled at the foot of Helan Mountain, offering spectacular natural scenery, and the stay was incredibly comfortable. The staff were exceptionally warm and attentive; traveling with a child, they thoughtfully upgraded our room. And because my little one wasn't feeling well, they even allowed a late checkout, which was a wonderfully thoughtful detail. The room was comfortable, and the environment was tranquil – a perfect score! There aren't many dining options nearby, but we ate twice at the hotel's Chinese restaurant, and the food was delicious both times.
