Xiahe Homestays

On the Gannan Great Ring Line, if you go straight through it, Xiahe is the first stop. If you go through it backwards, Xiahe is the last stop. This time I went through it backwards. After being beaten by various hotels and B&Bs along the way, I stayed in Xiahetian. Zhu International Hotel gives you the feeling of surviving a disaster and returning to civilized society. . This should be the best hotel in Xiahe, right? In addition, although there are several so-called ”wild luxury” hotels in Gannan, it is not recommended to stay in them. I have seen almost all of them along the way. The location is just like that, there is no exclusive view, the facilities are not good, and the price is extremely high. Before departure I originally wanted to experience a few of them, but I found that it was completely unnecessary. Gannan does not need to live in a scenic spot like Ili. You can enjoy the entire scenic spot to yourself in the evening and morning. The best scenery is on the road. . The hotel is very close to Labrang Monastery and you can walk there. It is of 4-5 star standard in terms of hardware and decoration. There are many hidden-style decorations. The room price of about 400 in the off-season is acceptable, and it also comes with breakfast. . The interior of the room is a relatively old-school business hotel configuration, but it doesn't feel very outdated. The double bed room is more than 30 square meters, with floor-to-ceiling windows. The view outside the window is not bad. There is a chaise bed by the window and a standard work desk. It is suitable for everyone during the journey. For me, who has to organize videos and photos at night, this is very important. . The room comes with free ice water and two bags of loose tea. The bathroom has a single basin and no bathtub. The shower room is okay for bathing. At least you don't have to worry about not having enough hot water. . The breakfast the next day was okay, the best among so many hotels in Gannan. The cold dishes included pig ears and chicken feet, at least there was meat. The hot dishes were all vegetarian, but it was necessary to add some green leafy vegetables. There were also a few The Chinese dim sum can fill your stomach. It seems strange that there is no freshly cooked noodles stall, but there is no problem if you are full. . Generally speaking, this hotel is convenient for traveling, has good hardware, and has no issues with hygiene. If you are in Xiahe, I recommend staying there.

This hotel is absolutely fantastic! It is run by a Dutch lady, and she has a wealth of tourist information about this area. She is kind and charming, and runs the hotel like clockwork. The rooms are clean and the hotel is beautifully decorated. They have an amazing bar with great coffee and many liqueurs. An overall amazing experience !! Highly recommended.

Visited Labrang Monastery and stayed for another day. The hotel is located in the center of Xiahe City, only about 10 minutes walk from Labrang Monastery. Downstairs is the largest supermarket in the county. The transportation is convenient and the location is superior! The hotel room is spacious, the scenery is very good, the breakfast is full of local characteristics, the hotel restaurant is childlike, good quality and low price, strong Amway! The fly in the ointment is that some facilities in the room lack maintenance, the socket switch is not powered, the quilt and pillow are too hard, and the room does not have an air-conditioning fan, so I sweat all over at night. It will be better if it is improved!
