Hotels near Desert Escalator, Zhongwei

This time I went to Shapotou and stayed at the Yellow River Villa. It is very convenient in the scenic area. The most surprising thing is that the staff inside are very good at communicating with the itinerary. I am very happy. The elderly and children are very satisfied. The facilities are indeed a bit old, but compared with the peak season. Tent accommodation in the desert costing several thousand yuan is still a good value for money.

Very good B&B, perfect service, add WeChat a few days in advance to inform some hotel information. The room is very large, very comfortable when you enter the room, the bed is warm and comfortable, with 2 children, one big and one small, two 1.3-meter beds are just right, the terrace is also very large. The service staff is very warm and thoughtful, helping with luggage and getting on and off the bus during the entire process of arriving and leaving the store, answering any questions in detail, and responding to needs in a timely manner. The breakfast is also unexpectedly rich and delicious! It is really a great B&B! The price is more than 1,700 during holidays, which is also cost-effective compared to some other B&Bs I have seen in Huanghe Suji, and it is highly recommended!

This time, the experience of staying in Xuli B&B is perfect, and I would like to especially thank the thoughtful and considerate housekeeper Xiaoyi! From the moment we stepped into the B&B, Xiaoyi used his warm smile and meticulous service to instantly relieve our travel fatigue. He not only boiled water for us in advance, but also paid attention to every detail. The most rare thing is that he always appears in time when you need him, and leaves just the right amount of private space. This kind of professional and warm service is really rare. The design of the B&B itself is also full of ingenuity, with a perfect blend of simplicity and modernity, but what really made this trip unforgettable was definitely the ”family-like care” brought by the housekeeper Xiaoyi. I have already made an appointment with my friends that I must stay in Xuli next time I come, and I must appoint Xiaoyi as the housekeeper!

The room was nice and we upgraded the room type. In fact, we wanted to book a higher room type at that time, but when we paid, we were reminded that there was no room and the price kept changing. There are few seats in the restaurant, so people need to share tables, and people are stuck inside so they can't get out. The attitude of collecting food trays is average. I especially criticized the two female staff in black uniforms who drove a battery sightseeing car at the door and reversed the car when checking out. They were very arrogant. As if he were flying a plane, he ignored the residents who were waiting to pass by on the road, turned around and slowly reversed across the entire road. Also, if you book a basic room type, please note that it may share a courtyard with those in higher room types.

Feiqiji is the last homestay we stayed in on this trip. In the innermost part of the Yellow River Suji, the environment is very good. The whole yard is very quiet and unique in design. The shape is the only white container house in the Suji. The room is large in size and the large floor-to-ceiling windows can see the outside scenery. The light and shadow shined into the room through the glass window. It was really beautiful. Because I stayed in the west slope the day before, I set off to Wuhu again early that morning. The luggage was temporarily stored in the west slope. The housekeeper was very intimate to help us send the luggage to the room. When we came back, we reported the vehicle news in advance. We were sent to the room, prepared gifts, soups and snacks for us, and also sent afternoon tea for two people. Because we were leaving at noon the next day, we went to Yuanbai in the morning to use the afternoon tea set. The housekeeper also helped us take pictures. The photography technology is superb. When I left, I also printed the photo and sent it to us, and prepared Ningxia wolfberry for us. I was really touched. The days of this trip in the Yellow River were really beautiful.

The camp is in the Tengger Desert, and it is especially suitable for playing in the sand and watching the stars. The traffic is a section of the desert entrance by yourself. The store has an off-road vehicle to pick up and drive into the desert to the camp. We increased the price on the spot to change to a sand view room type, with a private bathroom, power supply and network, which is very convenient. Breakfast is complimentary, other meals have buffets and some dishes. The camp activities are also very rich, sandboarding is free, and there are projects such as camel riding, sandy motorcycles and other projects to play.

This time I stayed at Nan'an No. 2. I was very satisfied with the walnut courtyard and the room type. The 2.2-meter tatami bed was placed on the side without worrying about the children falling off the bed. The stones and cats in the yard made the children play happily. The fruits in the room were very fresh, and the small box of instant noodles was very thoughtful to fill the stomach. The housekeeper service was even better. The group was set up three days in advance. During the stay, we responded to every request. Children's slippers, nail clippers, and disposable bath bags were provided. When we forgot to bring glasses when dining at the restaurant at the entrance of the village, the housekeeper group immediately sent a car to pick us up and take us back to the room. The free laundry service was even more considerate. It was washed that night and returned before check-out the next day. It was also the pear blossom season. The pear blossom tree at the door was super beautiful, and the sauerkraut noodles for breakfast were delicious. The most unforgettable experience in Zhongwei during this trip was given by Nan'an. I highly recommend it.

I was lucky enough to get a room at Huanghe Suji during the May Day holiday. Of course, the price is not cheap, but it is worth it to go there once. It feels like a paradise, very different from the big city. It is in the style of Journey to the West. There are travel photography, cafes, hot pot, bars, skewers, resident singers, and fireworks. Everything is beautiful. You can also take pictures of the sunset over the Yellow River on the Ming City Wall, which is amazing.

I've finally arrived at the place I've been longing for. I drove 2,000 kilometers here, and I feel that it's worth it. This season satisfies my fantasy about the Northwest. The feeling of loneliness and freedom is great. I chose Yuanbai for accommodation, seeing that it is the newest place. After moving in, I found that I made the right choice. Both the architectural style and the service attitude are very consistent with my channel. It is said that a good B&B has a home feeling. This time I really felt it. I came back late at night. There were no street lights along the way. Other homes were pitch black, but only here were warm lights on. I saw the housekeeper waiting for me. When I returned to the room, he sent two servings of sweet soup, which made me feel warm... I will try my luck to see the snow scenery before the New Year. This time the experience is full. Thank you~

Stayed 1 night late August. 24kms and ¥40 taxi ride from ZhongweiNan fast train station. The area used to be a farm on a bend of the Yellow River. There are numerous accommodation areas, all looking similar. Apparently, one person owns all, and rents out clusters to various entities. Ours had a restaurant, but it wasn't open. For dinner and included breakfast, we went to the first restaurant on the right as you enter through the security gate from the carpark. Peaceful part of the world. Facility had a nice little pool, but water was too cold. Too dangerous to swim in the river. As you face the river, we walked right to a glamping area and had a cold beer. There is a petting zoo type deal on the way. To the left, you eventually climb up to a mini version of the great wall. Keep walking, for a side track to the river, or up to a little pavilion after crossing a road. + points, well set up, peaceful and secure. - points, zero English and most frustrating experience I've had in China even with apps both ways. We all travel with a price to quality/experience ratio. In this instance, far too high, and I wouldn't be back or recommend this place
