"The hotel has been open for many years. While the lobby is beautiful, some of the in-room facilities are outdated. 😂 Even the Qinghai-Gansu Loop hotels now have smart toilets as standard. There's no air conditioning in the room (I'm not sure if this is typical for all of Xining), and it felt quite stuffy, so they sent a fan up. However, the service from the front desk, concierge, and even the room attendants was excellent – very polite and professional. Every morning, I'd see a senior manager on the first floor who would proactively greet guests and hold the elevator. The restaurant also has a good variety of dishes, but the chef wasn't very polite and seemed impatient when answering questions, and this was the case both days 🙃. The beef offal soup on the first day was even cold 🙃. The hotel's location is great, in the bustling Chenxi district, surrounded by shopping malls, making it very convenient for dining and shopping."

"Booking the Guanhu International Hotel was the smartest decision I made on this Qinghai Lake trip! As the first 5-diamond hotel around the lake, its facilities are truly impressive, but what really made it feel like great value for money was the warm service. I have to give a special shout-out to our little ******* fox butler! They proactively contacted us before check-in to help plan our itinerary. During our stay, whether it was recommending the best sunset viewing spots or promptly responding to our various small requests, the ******* fox butler was incredibly meticulous, gentle, and patient. That feeling of 'everything is taken care of' completely washed away our travel fatigue and truly made us feel at home! The hotel restaurant also gave me a huge surprise! I originally thought dining in a scenic area might be a hit or miss, but the dishes were amazing, and the ingredients were incredibly fresh. From authentic highland beef and lamb to the yak yogurt in the special breakfast, everything was unforgettable. Enjoying delicious food by the window while admiring the vast lake view was a truly wonderful experience. I will definitely choose this place again next time I visit Qinghai Lake!"

Perfect for those working on the move, this hotel caters to a large number of business guests.

"Let's start with the positives: the location is excellent, with many restaurants nearby making dining convenient, and there's an airport shuttle stop right outside. The higher floors offer a panoramic view of the city's nightscape, which was one of the reasons I chose this hotel for my last stop in Xining before flying home. However, on the second day, breakfast was a bizarre experience. They had simply set up a few tables with food in the second-floor hallway, and strangers were squeezed together at large round tables to eat. It was incredibly awkward. There were only two or three unresponsive servers who showed no service awareness. On the third day, we were informed that breakfast had returned to the first-floor restaurant, and the food and environment were finally up to a normal hotel standard. Since my flight was in the afternoon, I called the front desk and was granted a late check-out until 3 PM, which shows the hotel's consideration for guests and good service. This is also why I gave a higher rating."

I had a wonderful stay! The room was spacious and well-designed, spotlessly clean, and completely odor-free. The bed was so soft and comfortable, I slept like a baby. The bathroom had a great wet/dry separation, and there was plenty of hot water, with all the essential amenities provided. The hotel staff were incredibly warm, attentive, and friendly. The location is super convenient for transportation, yet the surroundings are peaceful and quiet. It’s definitely an excellent choice for a trip. The hygiene was top-notch; there wasn't a speck of dust or dirt anywhere, and the room was well-ventilated with a comfortable temperature. The soundproofing was fantastic, making for a truly quiet night's rest. The facilities were excellent, with soft, pleasant lighting. The staff were responsive and friendly. This hotel offers much better value for money than others in its price range, and I would genuinely recommend it and definitely return.

This is an older five-star hotel in Xining. I booked a high-floor deluxe twin room, trusting the old reputation of five-star hotels. Upon check-in, they gave us three boxes of specialty Qinghai yogurt. The room wasn't particularly spacious, and the facilities were quite standard, not really feeling up to a five-star rating. The mini-bar fridge was empty, and only tea bags and instant coffee were provided. There was bottled water on a table in the hallway, available to grab anytime, which is good since Xining is quite dry and you need to hydrate. The bathroom was a bit small, with a regular toilet and shower, and the shower pressure was a bit low. The hotel offers a variety of pillows, and the towels and bath towels in the room were very comfortable to use. The standout items at breakfast were the beef noodles and 'zhusheng' noodles.
