Super cool hotel! One of the best hotels I have ever stayed. Breathtaking view and great food, super friendly staff. There are many programs for family and kids. My room type is the desert view cabin, wonderful- kids can just play send once step out of the door. You can observe stars in their star viewing valley, swim in the swimming pool, or simply go to explore the desert and enjoy the great scenery. Love it and will come back!

Hotel: Located in the Shapotou Scenic Area in Zhongwei, in the heart of the Tengger Desert, surrounded by sand hills, it is truly far away from the city and the hustle and bustle. We were also upgraded to the Diamond Hotel for free on this trip, which was really great! There is hot water and electricity, as well as two restaurants. The room is fully equipped, with a full set of L'Occitane toiletries, a free Mini Bar, and you can see endless sand dunes when you open the curtains. It also snowed, just like being in outer space, so dreamy! Zhongwei is simply a treasure travel destination that is seriously underestimated. There is the grandeur of the desert smoke and the romance of the Jiangnan area on the frontier. More importantly, you can see the stars in the sky, which is really amazing! The service at the Star Hotel is also very good, recommended!

We originally booked the Desert Star Hotel, but I was so lucky that I was a Taurus and they upgraded us to the Diamond Hotel for free! ! ! ! Their service was very enthusiastic, the shuttle bus was always available, it was very convenient to go anywhere, and there were many activities in the hotel, and the children had a lot of fun! I would like to thank the receptionists of the front office of the Diamond Hotel: Zhang Yiran, Shi Xinyao, and the concierge: Liu Haipeng. Thank you very much for their enthusiastic service!

The hotel sent us to Diamond Hotel, which has a very good and quiet environment, which meets my picky choice. Especially the receptionists of Diamond Hotel front office: Zhang Yiran, Shi Xinyao, and Yan Jiaxin, who are very enthusiastic and proactive in providing help. They are very good and highly recommended!

Hotel: The experience was really great. I stayed for two nights. It was so comfortable. We were upgraded to Diamond Hotel because of the constellation event. I was so happy. It was worth it. The shuttle bus was always available. The service was very good. Zhang Yiran, Wu Jiale and Li Ruida, the receptionists of the front office of Diamond Hotel, all provided very good service. The ladies were so beautiful and the brothers were also handsome. They all greeted me with a smile. I liked them so much. It was really a good experience! Chloe Travel Photography: There are not many photographers in the off-season, but the brother who took pictures for me is very professional. He didn't take many pictures, but they were very good. He also made some preliminary adjustments when selecting the pictures. It's really possible to post them directly on WeChat Moments. It's great! Buffet dinner: There are a lot of varieties, stir-fry, small hot pot, cakes, and I eat so much every time. Hahahaha. The dishes are the same every night. The environment is also good and the hygiene is very clean. Shapotou Scenic Area Tickets: The hotel provides scenic area tickets. With the wristband, you don't need to buy tickets for the scenic area bus. You just need to pay for the project. After playing, you can directly get on the hotel shuttle bus back to the hotel in the desert area. It's so convenient!

We originally booked a Star Hotel, but luckily the front desk lady upgraded us to a Diamond Hotel Star Room. Each building in the hotel is shaped like a white diamond, which is romantic and technological. The room layout is thoughtful, with Bowers & Wilkins speakers, Duravit toilets, Smeg coffee machines... There are fragrant flowers in the lobby and rooms. The hotel service is also very good, and the guests' needs can be responded to quickly. If you need to go out or have a meal, the taxi will pick you up quickly every time. The hotel arranges a variety of activities every day, and both adults and children have a lot of fun. It was a very satisfying experience.

How to say it, overall it is a hotel worth recommending and worthy of praise. It is worthy of the price. The environment is in the desert, surrounded by desert. You need to drive in by hotel car. It is together with the desert area of ​​Shapotou. The environment is very, very good, surrounded by sand dunes, very friendly to children. The hotel aesthetics are also very good, there are pictures. Diamond Hotel and Star Hotel are together and share some facilities. Relatively speaking, Diamond Hotel is a little higher than Star Hotel, and the room is also large. Star Hotel is also OK, mainly because this desert hotel has a good positioning and is very suitable for parents and children. Yan Jiaxin at the front desk of Diamond Hotel is the colleague who is responsible for replying to our WeChat messages. The service is very enthusiastic and feels at home. It happened to be a birthday for a companion on this trip. Shi Xinyao at the front desk and Guo Hui at the guest room helped to decorate the birthday room and sent a high-quality birthday cake, which was a surprise. The cake is very good. The hotel room is very quiet, there is no construction or roads around, and the sound insulation is very good Good reviews
