Dunhuang Zhongzhou International Hotel

Booked two nights at this hotel for Mogao caves tour. Service at the hotel is excellent. Better than any other l have stayed before. Room is very clean and updated. It way exceeded my expectations . Photo shows tea set with two kinds of nice tea provided.

I arrived at the hotel around four in the morning, exhausted and with tempered expectations after a major flight delay. To my great surprise, the staff had patiently waited for me despite the ungodly hour. Everything was prepared, and the check-in proceeded smoothly and professionally, without any trace of impatience or reluctance. This attentiveness and consideration from the very first contact set the tone for my entire stay. The room far exceeded my expectations. Not only was it exceptionally comfortable, but it also offered that rare standard where price and quality stand in a remarkable relationship to one another. The cleanliness was impeccable, the furnishings tasteful and thoughtfully arranged – one could sense genuine care in every detail. The breakfast deserves special mention: an abundant selection offered both traditional Chinese dishes and European options for Western palates. The quality of the food was consistently high, freshly prepared and lovingly presented. It was evident that international guests' needs are genuinely considered here, without sacrificing local authenticity. What truly distinguishes this hotel, however, is its staff. The friendliness and attentiveness with which one is received and cared for goes far beyond the usual service level. This is the kind of hospitality that doesn't feel forced, but springs from genuine warmth. For anyone visiting Dunhuang – whether following in the footsteps of the Silk Road or exploring the breathtaking Mogao Grottoes – I can wholeheartedly recommend this hotel. It not only provides an excellent base for exploration, but becomes itself a positive part of the travel experience.

This is my first visit to this hotel, and I must say the facilities and staff attitude are quite good. However, there are a few minor inconveniences: 1. After a long day of walking, if I want to soak my feet, I have to carry a heavy wooden bucket to the bathroom to fill it with water, which is inconvenient and risks straining my back. It would be more practical if a hot water kettle was provided in advance . 2. The room has limited wardrobe space, requiring clothes to be stacked on top of each other, and there are not enough hangers, which can be inconvenient at times . 3. The room does not provide ear-hook coffee; instead, only three-in-one coffee is available, which I’m not very accustomed to drinking .

A little disappointing.  The breakfast was worse than cheaper hotels in Gansu and they do not accept western credit cards despite the higher cost.  There were also no dryers in the laundry room though plenty of washers.

The room was very big and clean. The room was equipped with all conforts. There were some markets near the area. The staff doesn't speak english and doesn't accept foreign credit card but only Alipay and Wechat (we had Visa but didn't accept). The hotel has tour desk so you can manage day trip tò the sorrounding area. The breakfast had only asian cuisine, there was a Little desk with some sweets for foreign. The overall judgement Is a good hotel.

New amenities, very good breakfast. About 15-20 mins walk from the night market. The hotel is generally clean, the staff are super friendly. Will definitely stay there again.
