4-Star Hotels in Gansu, China

The location is absolutely fantastic! It's right in the center of Zhangye city, super close to the Bell and Drum Tower and Mingqing Street, all within walking distance. Eating and shopping are incredibly convenient. It's also just a 10-minute taxi ride from Zhangye West Station, making travel hassle-free. The business king room was spacious, and the bedding was clean and comfortable. The soundproofing was excellent; I couldn't hear any outside noise, which made for a great night's sleep. The front desk staff were warm and friendly, and check-in and check-out were both very quick. They even thoughtfully offered suggestions for exploring Zhangye. For 187, to get this location and quality, the value for money is off the charts. If you're coming to Zhangye, staying here is definitely the right choice!

Just 10 mins walk from the main train station. The hotel is amazing, befitting its international brand name. The layout of the bed, tables, internal decor, cleanliness, the thought put into the buttons for control of lighting, plus the placement and availability of sockets is in line of what I would expect for ”Hilton”. It has on-screen monitoring (in the room) of the laundry and dryer, negating the need to physically stay in the laundry room. Love the breakfast ! It has lamb and beef steak for breakfast. Good varieties of fruits, yoghurts and Chinese cuisine. I wonder why Hilton doesn't have similar hotels for other silk road cities such as Dunhuang or Jiayuguan. The reception staff is prompt and helpful in directions. Probably the only downside I can think of is lack of proper restaurants near or inside the hotel. We had to take a taxi or walk in 3 km (in -10C freezing cold) to get to the nearest mall. However, there is a mid-size convenient store adjacent to the hotel (across the traffic light junction). Would absolutely recommend this hotel. Worth paying the premium.

The location is fantastic, right by the Dang River. It's a five-minute walk to Dunhuang Bookstore, and parking is free. Driving to Crescent Lake, the airport, and Mogao Grottoes all take about fifteen minutes. Shazhou Night Market and Dunhuang Museum are also close by, about a five to six-minute drive. Right behind the hotel is Shunzhang Yellow Noodle Restaurant, and there are snack stalls on the south side of Jinshan Alley in the evenings. They were doing road construction near the entrance when I was there, which made getting in and out a bit inconvenient, but everything else was great. I booked the Mulan King Room, which had a humidifier, a smart speaker, and convenient electric curtains. The room was clean, and the water pressure was excellent, making for a really comfortable shower – almost surprisingly good for Dunhuang! The breakfast selection was quite varied; over three days, the cold and hot dishes rarely repeated. The beef noodle chef deserves high praise, his noodles were very authentic, and the lamb soup was also delicious. I had originally planned to try some local breakfast spots, but ended up eating all three breakfasts at the hotel. I overheard a customer ask for 'lamian' (pulled noodles), and I could tell the chef wasn't thrilled by the term, but he still freshly pulled a bowl for them, haha. I also find it a bit jarring to hear 'lamian' in Gansu, even as a non-local; it's always better to call it 'beef noodles' here. The off-season price was really good value. I'd definitely stay here again. It was a pleasant surprise to be able to see the sand dunes of Mingsha Mountain from the Dang River. The hand soap had a slightly odd smell and could be changed. They provide laundry detergent, which is a nice touch. Pictures 5 and 6 are of the hotel lobby, pictures 2 and 4 show the scenery by the Dang River, and picture 3 is of the bookstore.

This was my first time visiting Zhangye, and I chose this hotel mainly because it was relatively new and its location was decent. The room decor and amenities were generally good, but there were quite a few issues that I hope the staff can address and fix soon. On the first day, as soon as I entered the room, I noticed a strong cigarette smell. Opening the window didn't help much, and the front desk informed me there were no other rooms available. They sent housekeeping to do a 'non-smoking' treatment, which essentially involved spraying some air freshener. Unfortunately, the smell returned in the evening, so I had to keep the window open until I went to bed. The next morning, it felt a bit better, but in the afternoon, I discovered a loud water gushing sound coming from the air conditioner pipe. It continued into the night and was so loud it affected my sleep. I had no choice but to switch rooms. The new room also had its own set of minor issues, like the hallway light turning off automatically after a minute or two, and poor in-room Wi-Fi signal. My phone wouldn't display the Wi-Fi icon unless I turned off cellular data. Both rooms also shared a common problem: the shower water temperature kept fluctuating between hot and cold, which was quite uncomfortable during my three-day stay. Despite these issues, the hotel staff's service attitude was quite satisfactory. They were responsive, actively tried to resolve problems, and handled things competently. If the hardware issues can be improved, I would still recommend this hotel.

The room was absolutely amazing, I was so pleasantly surprised when I checked in! I couldn't believe how spacious it was!!! The service was excellent too! Their little cat is also super cute; being able to pet it every time I came and went was so therapeutic! There's coffee and tea in the lobby, and the room's amenities are fantastic. Not only do they provide shower gel and shampoo, but there's also conditioner!! It's the first time I've ever seen a hotel offer conditioner!!! I highly recommend this place!!! Such great value for money!!! I was so comfortable, I really didn't want to leave! I'll definitely stay here again next time!

The hotel is quite new and very clean. We were a group of three, and our room only came with two breakfast vouchers, but the front desk kindly provided an extra one. The handmade beef noodles at breakfast were especially delicious! They were the best I've had in the Hexi Corridor these past two days! As someone from Guangdong, I found the Northwest quite dry, but they provided a humidifier, and the smart toilet with a heated seat was fantastic. The only downside was that the shower water in my room was a bit cold (though my friend's double room had hot water). The hotel's location is good, with many restaurants nearby.

For this price point, you usually expect a budget hotel, but this one, both in terms of service and facilities, could easily be compared to a four-star. The location is excellent; Kumārajīva Temple is just a short walk downstairs, and there's a large Xinle supermarket nearby. It's also not far from Leitai Museum, Dayun Temple, Wenmiao Temple, and Western Xia Museum. The hotel service is fantastic; the front desk is always responsive to any issues, making for a great experience. The cleanliness is also superb, especially the bathroom which is spotless. Although the hotel has been open for quite some time, the facilities are well-maintained and functional, though the furniture's dark red color reflects a hotel design trend from about 10 years ago. What really pleasantly surprised me was that upon check-in, the front desk upgraded me to a business king room, which even had a bathtub and disposable bath liners. Coming back after a day of exploring and taking a relaxing bath was absolutely wonderful.

This was the second Mercure hotel on our trip, and overall, the facilities were quite good. **Facilities:** The hotel is well-equipped. The lobby is clean and bright. As expected from an Accor property, the decor style and design elements are largely consistent. What truly stood out was that on each floor's common area, right outside the elevator, there was a row of complimentary bottled water. This is quite rare in other hotels and very convenient for guests to grab. Breakfast is served on the 21st floor, offering a panoramic view and a great sense of openness. On another note, staying on the 14th floor, the water pressure was a bit low, and the shower felt like it didn't have enough flow. **Hygiene:** The room's cleanliness was generally acceptable, but I found a long hair stuck to a tile in the bathroom. It felt like the cleaning wasn't thorough, which was a bit off-putting. Also, there was a small tear on the bed linen. I'm not sure if it was an oversight, but ideally, it should have been replaced. **Service:** The hotel's front desk manager took my feedback very seriously. Afterwards, they even proactively called us to inform us that the issues had been rectified. This was truly excellent.

My recent stay at this hotel was truly exceptional! Its location is very easy to find, with navigation leading directly to the hotel entrance, and complimentary parking is a huge plus. The front desk staff were warm, enthusiastic, and patiently answered all our inquiries. Our room was spotlessly clean, and the bathroom had no unpleasant odors. The space was generous, and the layout was practical. Plus, there are numerous fantastic dining options nearby. It's perfectly situated for both business travelers and tourists, being close to major attractions and very convenient for getting around. I wholeheartedly recommend this hotel and will definitely choose it again next time without a second thought!

The hotel rooms are incredibly spacious, truly enormous! Even if it's peak season and a bit pricey, five people wouldn't feel cramped in there. 😂 The hotel is brand new, and all the facilities are excellent. I visited in March, and they had underfloor heating, air conditioning, a humidifier, and an automatic toilet. The bed was super comfortable, and I really appreciated having both soft and firm pillows – I slept great for several nights. Breakfast was quite lavish for the area, and I personally loved it. They also provide plenty of bottled water in the room; you can just ask for more if you run out. The front desk even offers small items like masks. Indeed, the hotel has a comfortable Mercedes minivan for airport or train station transfers, and everyone seemed to have a great experience with it. Finally, they even gave me a windproof headscarf and a small camel souvenir. 😊 I'll definitely choose this place again next time; it's also very close to the night market.
