Yining City Homestays

From the first moment, i had such an excellent time at Blue Dove. I chose the place for the incredible design of the place, the location within Kazankh ancient town, and the reference to Doves... I left with so much more! The owner and her husband were so helpful and brought ice coffees for me and my dad when we arrived, which was so welcome. They had local treats and fruit to try and a wonderful sense of community. They helped us arrange a driver to Qionkushtai and packed us a breakfast to go, with coffee :) Every detail has been carefully considered and it was a joy to stay at Blue Dove. I consider owner Wen to be my friend and look forward to visiting again. I highly recommend!

The most perfect hotel for this trip. Because I like to feel the ethnic characteristics, I fell in love with this hotel at first sight. I was a little nervous when booking. From the moment I entered the door, I knew it would be worth the trip. I highly recommend it. The whole building is like a work of art. As soon as you enter the lobby, you will see pure wool carpets and hand-carved wood. The public area alone is dazzling. The room layout is also very meticulous. The hand-carved big bed is very exquisite, the mattress is super comfortable, and all kinds of furniture and soft furnishings are very attentive. I like to pay attention to the details of the hotel, so the washing and care of Aqua de Parma hits my heart, even the razor is Gillette. The housekeeper is also very considerate, the service is considerate and thoughtful, and the breakfast is also very good. Although there are only four of us in the off-season, the breakfast preparation is also very rich, and the hand-cut beef is great. Every place in the hotel is suitable for taking pictures and checking in. It’s a pity that I didn’t bring my baby this time. I will definitely bring my baby to check in next time. The texture of oil painting is too good. I also gave a souvenir before leaving, and once again felt the hospitality of Xinjiang. In short, it is recommended!

The room was spacious, the bedding was excellent, and I slept very comfortably. It had a strong ethnic feel. The room was very soundproof and clean; sitting in the courtyard in the evening was very pleasant. The owner was incredibly welcoming, and the breakfast was excellent and plentiful. They even helped cut the watermelon, and the cocktails they made were delicious and beautiful – so talented! It's also very close to Liuxing Street, with many great restaurants nearby; the location is fantastic. When I asked the owner, they recommended well-known local restaurants, not just trendy ones, but very good and tasteful. I'll definitely stay with the owner again next time! Thank you for the hospitality these past two days!

The indescribable beauty can be said to be the most beautiful yard in Kazan. No matter from the health or the environment, the children are too cute, let alone send the local breakfast, the experience is full, the back is too big, will definitely go again, next time I go to live for a few more days. Hope more people see it, wrap it up!

Found a hidden gem!!! Seriously, who knew a random booking could be such a pleasant surprise? ✨ Disposable towels are provided for free! And the hairdryer is a top-notch Laifen, which really elevated the experience. The bathroom even thoughtfully provides disposable toilet seat covers, addressing all the hygiene concerns for women. The room was spotless, and all the appliances worked perfectly. My stay was absolutely fantastic, and they even had lavender essential oil for a good night's sleep. I've already saved this place and will definitely be booking here again next time!

Our trip to Yining led us to the 'Slow Time' B&B in Liuxing Street. The location was perfect – right outside were popular restaurants, and it was very close to the East Gate and a parking lot, making it super convenient for getting around, dining, and parking. The B&B's design was incredibly thoughtful; the owner did a fantastic job blending ethnic styles with modern simplicity. With the carpets, tiles, and vintage lighting, photos came out great even without filters. The hygiene and facilities were also impeccable, clearly showing the owner's refined taste. In the evening, we listened to street music and danced with the minority girls from the restaurant, making for a lively atmosphere. We woke up to the sunlight and the smell of freshly baked *baozi* – now that's the right way to vacation!

The location is a little bit hidden in an alley, however I love how it is nestled among the local restaurants and houses, you get to see how the people live on the daily basis. Otherwise the room is clean, amenities are great too. If you are a light-sleeper, it can be a little bit noisy since it is located near houses. But overall, it is a great guesthouse if you would like a place near town as a base for your travel. The owner’s daugther though..despite my limited Mandarin, she went away and beyond to help me with literally everything from booking a bus, and communicating with a DiDi driver to mail my AirPod which I had left in the car at a different city!  She arranged for it to be sent to my next location which I had book prior, ensured that the postman gave the mail to me personally by phonecall. She is one of the sweetest person I have met during my solo travel to China.

The location is absolutely perfect! The Yuanman Courtyard B&B is located in the core area of Liuxing Street. You can go to the color streets and alleys a few steps away. It is especially convenient to walk to see the night view of Liuxing Street in the evening. Quiet in the middle of noisy, return to the courtyard to instantly isolate the lively neighborhood, and the sense of relaxation is directly full. Parking is also very worry-free, there is an exclusive parking space, and you don't have to worry about finding a parking space when you drive by yourself. The decoration of the room is very textured, the design of the log is matched with warm atmosphere lights, the soft decoration details are full, the bedding is soft and clean, the whole house is meticulously hygienic, there is no smell, and the living is comfortable and at ease. The boss and the front desk service are particularly intimate, and the response to any questions is very fast, and they will patiently give Yili local play guides and food recommendations. The overall hardware quality is online, the environment is quiet, the location is unique, and the self-driving parking is convenient. This is the first choice for Yining. I really recommend it!

The hygiene is excellent, and the owner is very warm and friendly. This is my second time visiting Yining, and the people here are genuinely wonderful. The hotel has a washing machine for laundry, and the staff even provided laundry detergent and hangers. The location is easy to find, right at the intersection of the main road in Liuxing Street.

It is a good hostel. However, they have to take care of the daily validating room keys. People go out to the washroom in the middle of the night, and even if they paid for the following day, they get locked, and they can't get in. Regardless of how many days you pay for, you need to get your room key validated, which is a redundant and unnecessary thing to do.it is very frustrating, too. Last night, a girl from the dorm went to the washroom at 3 a.m., and she got locked out until morning when other people in the room woke up to get her in. Also, for these unfortunate circumstances, there is nobody in the reception area to take care of it. I stayed 6 nights, and every day, I had to reactivate the room key. That is something the hostel must pay attention to it or fix it. Otherwise, it is a clean please to stay at.
