Mingsha Mountain and Crescent Moon Spring | 9.89km from Mingsha Mountain
The unexpected choice turned out to be the most exciting day of the trip to Dunhuang!
Originally, we accidentally booked this camp hotel, but it turned out to be the most surprising and unforgettable stop of this trip to Dunhuang. The children had a great time with the desert for the first time, and they had a lot of fun and took great photos. It was incredibly beautiful both during the day and at night!
Special thanks to the housekeeper Xiao Wei who warmly received us. He was meticulous and thoughtful, making us feel at home. There were some minor problems that occurred on the night of check-in. Thanks to the professional response and quick handling of the three housekeepers Xiaopang, Xiaowu and Xiaoyan, our family spent the night safely and smoothly.
Next time we come to Dunhuang, we will definitely choose here again. Highly recommended to parent-child families and friends who love nature

GGuest UserIt’s a dreamlike feeling and the wilderness experience is great!
When staying in the wilderness, the first thing is to look at the scenery. The scenery of the desert hills is not to mention. Although it is at the foot of the mountain, it is still refreshing.
It’s also great to take photos in an open space. They gave us guidance on how to take pictures of the starry sky and provided a mobile phone holder. It was great. PS. If you come here, be sure to ask the housekeeper or the boss for a candlelight lantern (the store will provide it for free). The atmosphere for taking photos is great. Got it
In terms of meals, we ordered a barbecue from the store and ate on the terrace of the room (four people can sit on it, and if more than four people eat on the sand below the terrace)
DDongdundunVery good.
Facilities: The room is fully equipped with a full set of disposable baths and bath slippers. There is a washing machine in the public area. The space in the room is also large. It is very convenient to dry clothes.
Hygienic: very clean, the bright atmosphere shown by the introduction
Environment: The room is large

GGuest UserGreat atmosphere. The tent/bedding was much cleaner than expected despite being in the middle of desert . The heater works well. The owner took his time to take great care of us (noted that we didn’t go during high-season); very service-minded. He took us to/from airports and different tourist spots. Also provided us with many additional activities (not excluded in the initial program of camel riding) such as ATV riding, sand hill sliding, firework. The hotpot/grill dinner was delicious! Overall we were very impressed with everything.
ที่พักบรรยากาศดีมาก สะอาดกว่าที่คาดไว้เนื่องจากอยู่กลางทะเลทราย heater ทำงานได้ดี เนื่องจากตอนเราไปยังไม่เข้าช่วง high season เจ้าของจึงดูแลเราอย่างเต็มที่ ให้บริการดีเลิศ มีรับส่งสนามบิน มีรับส่งสถานที่เที่ยวต่างๆ ช่วยดูแลเรื่องซื้อตั๋วเข้าสถานที่ท่องเที่ยวต่างๆ มีขับ ATV สนุกมาก ตอนกลางคืนมีเอาพลุมาให้เล่น ดูแลนอกเหนือจากโปรแกรมที่ตั้งไว้ (ในโปรแกรมมีขี่อูฐ,อาหารมื้อเย็น มื้อเช้า อาหารเย็นเป็นปิ้งย่างและหม้อไฟ (烤肉,火锅))
气氛很好。帐篷/床上用品比预期的要干净得多,尽管它位于沙漠中部。加热器工作正常。主人慢慢来照顾我们(注意到我们在旺季没有去);非常有服务意识。他带我们往返于机场和不同的旅游景点。还为我们提供了许多额外的活动(不排除在最初的节目中),如ATV骑行,滑行。火锅/烧烤晚餐很美味!总的来说,我们对一切都印象深刻。
GGuest UserI have to give this hotel a thumbs up!
Service: Very friendly. After parking the car, the hotel helped to carry the luggage in. Fruits were prepared in the room, and drinks were available. It was really generous! There was also a washing machine available.
Facilities: There are projectors, electric toilets, etc., all good
The most important thing is that the hotel is very close to Mingsha Mountain, and you can walk there without worrying about traffic jams. We went there on the first night. There were really 10,000 people at the concert. After the show, we walked back easily without worrying about not being able to get a taxi or traffic jams. The next morning, we went to play the beach project again. There were not many people in the morning, and there was no need to queue up for camel riding. After playing, we went back to take a shower and check out at noon. It was really convenient.

GGuest UserThe service and other details of this inn are very good. It is the best inn I have stayed in during this trip to the west. The front desk staff will enthusiastically help with luggage and introduce the various facilities in the store. The starry sky ceiling in the room is also eye-catching. The taste of breakfast is no worse than that of other hotels and breakfast shops. It is a very good inn worth recommending.

GGuest UserI saw the vineyard when I selected a homestay online, so I quickly contacted the owner, who was very enthusiastic and met me at the station. You know how happy it is to have someone meet you at the station when you go out with the elderly and children🥰
The sanitation is super clean, and the family is very capable. You can eat at the inn, and the owner's mother cooks for you herself. The vegetables are grown by herself, and you can pick grapes when you leave the room. Every time I come to the Qinghai-Gansu line, my mouth gets blisters, and I count on coming here to supplement my vitamins! All the meals we had at the B&B were very delicious. The children ate until they were full every day, and the eggs were very, very big.
The boss helped me contact Dunhuang for the A ticket. Although the peak season had passed, it still needed to be booked a long time in advance. I contacted the boss only one day in advance. He actively helped me with various plans. He was very enthusiastic and patient. It was a lucky trip. I watched two performances in a row, ”See Dunhuang Again” and ”Music of Dunhuang”, both of which were very exciting. You can contact the owner to buy tickets and get discounts. I have recommended it to friends who are going there soon. If I have the opportunity to come to Dunhuang next time, I will definitely stay here again.
GGuest UserFuguo was so new when we visited in April 2025 that it was still being constructed around us! The staff made great efforts to minimize disruption and noise, and the room was very clean since it was basically new! Special thanks to Xiao Tian and the others at the front desk for going above and beyond for helping us locate a lost item, including contacting the business and arranging a courier to retrieve the lost item. Breakfast was great, too, and the breakfast staff very accommodating! The only caveat (especially for Western guests un-used to the ubiquitous smoking habit in China): we had a wonderful time at Fuguo hotel partially because this was the only truly non-smoking facility we encountered during our trip to China. Because it was so new, the hotel did not have the smell of smoke in its general areas or within the non-smoking rooms. However, while leaving on our last day, we noticed that a large group of guests took up residence and immediately started smoking in the elevator and lobby. We recommend the hotel reinforces its non-smoking policy - as stated on the lobby signs - so that all guests can breathe comfortably.
AAnonymous UserThe location of the hotel is easy to find, it is very convenient to take a taxi anywhere, and it is close to several attractions in the city.
Facilities: The facilities are complete, mainly the hotel room is equipped with a humidifier, which is very considerate for people who are not used to the dry weather in Dunhuang.
Hygiene: The bedding, bath towels, and bathroom are very clean. After staying in the room and going out to play, the room will be cleaned and the bath towels will be changed every day.
Environment: Very quiet, very good rest.
Service: The service is in place, and they will ask in advance whether you need to bring breakfast or beef noodles across the street.
A hotel with a relatively high cost performance, I will choose it next time I come!

PPatrik_ROur stay at this riverside hotel was pleasant, thanks to the nice and friendly personnel. They were consistently helpful, creating a welcoming atmosphere. The hotel's excellent location by the river and close proximity to main tourist attractions (accessible by taxi) made exploring the city a breeze. The room was spacious and impeccably clean, ensuring a comfortable retreat. While the breakfast was just okay, the reception staff's exceptional assistance stood out—they were always ready to help with anything we needed. Overall, a reliable choice for those seeking a convenient and comfortable stay near key tourist spots.
HHeong Siew YinLocation is very ideal, along a pleasant Main Street, around 5 to 8 mins walk to night market, yet away from the rowdiness of tourists. Just opposite there are convenience shops, a western bakery (Angelia) and stretch of small restaurants in an alley which are of good quality.
Front desk services are fantastic especially helpful for foreigners ( though they don’t speak English- try to use e-translator), regarding local attractions and getting a cab for you if encounter difficulties. They are genuinely helpful to try to overcome your difficulties. Special mention on Ya Jin who even asked her regular taxi driver to accompany us to buy the Mogao Grottoes tickets and arranged for a long distance taxi trip to Liuyuan South Railway station. Wang Na also offered her WeChat contact number if we have difficulties coming back at night. Really warm hospitality.
Even the hotel driver who fetched us from the airport was nice(complimentary service). The housekeepers are too hardworking.
Only complain I have is the breakfast which served exactly the same thing every morning and of limited choices. Thus Angelia bakery just opposite was really a good alternative.
