Let me give a truthful review. Let me talk about the advantages first:
1️⃣ The location is an absolute advantage. It is not easy to build a hotel in the desert. The decoration style is very good.
2️⃣ The Chinese restaurant tastes good. The average price per person is about 180. Considering that there are no restaurants around and you can only eat in the hotel, the restaurant does not charge exorbitant prices. It is considered conscientious and has a good value for money.
3️⃣ The activities are good, stargazing is good, and the 180 per person UTV is very exciting and worth playing.
4️⃣ You can see the bar, there is a wood stove on the top floor of the guest room, and there is a bar in the desert. If it is fully opened, the experience should be good.
Let's talk about the disadvantages:
1️⃣ The parking environment is bad. There is no fence around the parking lot in a place where sandstorms often occur. When encountering strong winds, the paint of the car will be directly frosted, and there is privileged parking. Some people can park inside the hotel, but not It's the parking lot outside (I saw orange Shaanxi U tanks & Volkswagen Multivan)
2️⃣ The toiletries of this price range hotel are not high-grade enough, and there is not even conditioner
3️⃣ The decoration style is OK, but it does not mean that the window seals can leak sand all over the table
4️⃣ The bar is too slow to mix drinks. It took 15 minutes to make two drinks without the previous guests, and the staff who were off work sat at the bar and chatted with the staff who were on duty
5️⃣ The breakfast was chaotic, and the queue for cooking noodles was unreasonable. It was really not like the order that a hotel of this grade should have
Summary: The hotel is actually good, but if you check in with the mentality of ”I spent 3,000 to get a 3,000 stay experience”, it must be a little worse, because at least half of the price is spent on the location. Compared with brand hotels, there is still a gap in service, probably because there is no centralized training system and unified standards. But as a tourist who came to the desert for the first time, the experience was still good from the perspective of getting close to the desert
It was a great experience. First, after driving the car to the centralized parking lot, the hotel will soon send a car to pick you up, and you can reach the camping base in about 10 minutes. It was so exciting to sit in the scenic area's surfing car and take us up and down the hills. We booked a double room with a private bathroom. The room was very spacious and clean, and there was enough hot water. When we arrived, there was a buffet prepared by the campsite. Our family of eight ordered meals, especially the barbecued skewers of the special salt pond beach sheep, which were served to us one after another. It was really bold. We could walk around in the desert and stop to take pictures at will. After dinner, there were some sand sliding facilities for us to play. There are also fireworks, bonfire parties, etc., coupled with the starry sky, it is really beautiful.
The key point is the service here, it's really great! My girlfriend accidentally lost her phone while sandboarding. The hotel staff was more anxious than us and sent five or six people to look for it. In the end, they comforted us and hoped that we could adjust our mood. It was really great. What’s even more fortunate is that after we left the hotel, other tourists picked up our phone. The hotel staff excitedly contacted us immediately and helped us send the phone back. Thank you so much! All in all, it was a great experience and I hope I will have the opportunity to go there again in the future.

The future cabin design of the Mars base is great, with a smart toilet, plenty of hot water, Dyson hair dryer, L'Occitane toiletries, and a rich welcome fruit plate. It can be said that it has everything. Unfortunately, we encountered extreme weather during the two days we went there. We felt the power of the sandstorm and spent half of the time playing in the room. It was considered a bad stay haha. Fortunately, the wind stopped at night, and we watched two nights of bonfire parties in a row. The children liked it very much. When the wind stopped during the day, we took the time to go sandboarding. The children loved sandboarding so much. It was super fun. On the third day, it finally cleared up. We went to Tonghu Grassland Scenic Area to brush the project. It was still very cost-effective with a 50% discount. 150 per person, you can play four projects: horse riding, camel riding, surfing car, and motorcycle. The housekeeper Xiaodong took very thoughtful care and provided us with great convenience. He deserves a five-star praise.

The most satisfying thing about this trip to the northwest is the service of the store Ronaldinho. Whether it is a variety of sightseeing projects or accommodations in the desert area, they are very responsible for answering and trying their best to arrange, very enthusiastic and no pits at the same time.
This time I chose desert camping. The first time I lived in a desert tent, the environment in the tent was much better than expected. However, for children with low collars, I need to pay attention to it because there are bonfires and fireworks at night, so I have to wait for 10:30 in the evening to be quiet. In addition, it is mentioned that because they all live in tents, there are always people who get up at night, and people who get up in the morning to watch the sunrise, so you don't have to consider tent rooms for high sleep requirements.

GGuest UserThe B&B has attentive service, complete facilities, rich activities and unique experiences. It is a paradise for our travel lovers. It is recommended and worth a visit.
SstonicThe boss picked us up and took us to the tent camp, gave us a big plate of watermelon, helped us carry our luggage to the tent, and provided us with free sandboarding trays and sand digging tools.
The tent is clean and has a small table, two chairs and a clothes rack.
In the evening, there is a buffet in the restaurant from 0730 to 0900, where you can grab beer and drinks, home-cooked meals, barbecue, etc. The outdoor accommodation conditions are already very good. After drinking and eating, we participated in the bonfire party and set off fireworks, and then watched the starry sky and sunrise.
The children were having so much fun that they didn't want to leave.
GGuest UserThe experience of staying in this hotel is really good. The lobby on the first floor is magnificent and grand. The front desk check-in is fast. The customer service is very enthusiastic. Before I arrived, they added WeChat to send me travel tips and food recommendations. Seeing that I was bringing my children, I applied for a breakfast with the manager. The manager took the initiative to send children slippers, toothbrushes, and welcome fruits. It is worth praising that there are many breakfasts, and the desserts, cakes, and mugwort noodles that children love are also good. There are quite a lot of varieties. I recommend it to friends who are on business trips. The overall design of the room is relatively reasonable. The space under the clothes hanger is just right for an open suitcase. It is convenient to take things without bending over and taking up space. The shower and toilet are separated separately, which is relatively convenient for us two adults and two children.
Service: Very good
WWitidaWe came to Zhongwei only to visit Shapotou desert park. This hotel is not at the center of the district and you need to walk or take a taxi to get there but I recommend here to all who like a relax/green atmosphere. The hotel buildings sit in a big garden. We stayed on the second floor and there's a lift. The breakfast was great, a lot to choose both savory and sweet. The staff was helpful and polite. They gave us medicine footbath on the first day we arrived.
GGuest UserDon't be too great! ! The most comfortable youth travel I have stayed in, I have set the suite. Super clean and tidy, that is, the boss is exposed! Completely in line, the price is not high, especially comfortable, you must boast the boss! Too enthusiastic, have the feeling of going home. Very comfortable, very clean, the quilt cover is definitely new, the bathroom has hot water The overall environment is better than many hotels, the price is super high. I will come next time.
GGuest UserIt's quite quiet, and there's breakfast. It's just that the restaurant has no air conditioning and it's too hot. It's very close to the Shabotou Festival, which is very convenient and worth watching. When we went there, there were not many people and we needed to change paper tickets. It's better to go in 5 minutes in advance.
GGuest UserVery good hotel, the experience is also very good ( ∀`*)
When I checked in, I also sent silk scarves, which can be sunscreened, and children's slippers and toothbrushes. They are very cute. Children's favorite 🥰🥰. The room is large, the lighting is bright, the facilities are complete, and it is smart. The front desk service is also very good, the overall effect is good, There is also free parking, travel is also very convenient, very recommended
WWunianguilaiThe room space is very large, the aisle is particularly wide, the fruit is delivered at night, the bathroom has free bath flowers to use, parking is also very convenient, next to the hotel is the snack street, the disadvantage is that the facilities are slightly old, but the special enthusiasm of the service makes up for the lack of facilities, Especially the manager at the front desk of the breakfast room should be a slightly fat lady (forgive me for using the word fat) short curls, full of enthusiasm and smile for every dining customer, other kitchen staff are also very polite and enthusiastic, like a 👍👍👍👍👍
QQinantingsunenThe room has been upgraded. The boss is super nice. The unlimited sleep and drink at the buffet are super cost-effective. There are fireworks in the evening. It is very quiet at night. The kids love it. I wish the boss a prosperous business.
JjkdddddddddddThe room is nice and clean, with a private bathroom and a view of the wild and luxurious
There is a hot pot buffet for dinner for 168 per person, which is OK.
I gave a bad review to the service staff. When we booked the sand-making time, the staff on duty was sleeping. I called the customer service number on the wall, but they only told me to call the staff on duty. I called him several times before he responded, but he still ignored me. We waited 20 minutes longer than the appointment time for the car to pick us up for the trip. The customer service representative Ke Xin also didn't reply to WeChat messages. The experience was originally good, but I was speechless when it ended. Not recommended if you are in a hurry ❌
