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!

1. When driving, you must navigate to Shapotou P1 parking lot, otherwise you will go the wrong way. The hotel has a special shuttle bus. 2. You must go to the Star Observation Valley to see the stars at night. There is light pollution in the hotel and you can't see the stars. Bring a star pointer. 3. If you want to participate in the desert adventure, you will find desert lizards. 4. The beach around the cabin is flat, and the sand dunes around the sand view room are high, which has a better visual effect. 5. Although the price is high, the hotel service is very good, and the children like it very much. It is worth going.

Facilities: Very good. Humidifiers are carefully equipped. Toiletries are also branded. Environment: Because it is located in Shapotou Scenic Area, we went there in the off-season, so there are few people. It is very quiet. You can enjoy the whole desert and sandboarding. Service: A fruit plate is given when you check in. There is a coffee machine in the water bar. You can take any snacks. It is very considerate. There is also a free off-road shuttle bus when you want to go to the scenic area. Buffet Chinese and Western dinner: I like the free meals the most. They are very rich and have many varieties. The dining environment is a panoramic restaurant with great views. Participated in the hotel's stargazing activities. The overall experience is great. It is more suitable for families with children. There are many children's projects. The room is also equipped with children's products

It is very suitable to bring children here. Every day, they dig sand and slide at the door. There are also various activities organized by the hotel. I especially like desert exploration. You can interact with teacher Yuxin to learn about various plants and small insects in the desert and bring them back as specimens! Teacher Yuxin is also very patient! The self-service hot pot is also very good, with many dishes and very fresh! I will come again next time!

The Star Hotel that I have been looking forward to for many years finally came true. The buffet dinner, midnight snack and breakfast were all very rich. The hotel front desk also prepared disposable raincoats and windproof face towels for guests. The night view of the hotel was so beautiful, but it was a pity that I couldn't see the stars on a cloudy day. With the hotel wristband, the Shapotou ticket and transportation were all free. Ctrip customer service also subsidized the price difference based on the price on *nar.com. It was a perfect itinerary and I was super satisfied.

I had a very pleasant stay at the Star Hotel in China recently, and I would like to share my experience. ### Location The Star Hotel is in a very convenient location, located in the Shapotou Scenic Area. The hotel provides exclusive minibus pick-up to facilitate our travel to and from the scenic area. In addition, there is an off-road vehicle pick-up service that takes us directly to the parking lot, which greatly facilitates our travel. ### Service The hotel's service is very thoughtful. As soon as we arrived at the reception, there was a concierge waiting, enthusiastically helping with the luggage, and quickly completing the check-in procedures and sending us directly to the room. This thoughtful service made me feel warm. ### Family Friendly Since we brought three children with us, the housekeeping staff specially prepared extra sand toys for us, and the children had a lot of fun, which made our stay even more perfect. ### Dining The buffet options for breakfast and dinner are very rich, and even drinks are included, which is really good value for money. The mineral water in the restaurant can also be taken at any time, especially in the desert, which is particularly important. ### Room Upgrade On the second night, the front desk upgraded our room to be closer to the main building, which made it easier for us to go to the restaurant for dinner. We were very satisfied with this meticulous care. ### Hotel Activities The stargazing and parent-child craft activities provided by the hotel were also very thoughtful. The service attitude of the staff was very good, and the children participated happily. ### Special Thanks Special thanks to the service team who received us: Yin Meng, Shen Yue, concierge Zhang Yue, Li Rui and room Zhou Chenfei. Your warm service made our vacation experience even more memorable! Overall, Zhongxing Star Hotel is a very suitable hotel for family travel, with excellent service, complete facilities and excellent location. It is highly recommended!

I came to the Star Hotel during off-peak travel. Overall, I was quite satisfied, but many problems need to be improved and upgraded. After all, the price has caught up with high-star hotels. Hygiene: The room facilities are old, the sand toys are not cleaned and dirty, the sand at the door is not clean, and the small stones and small pieces are very easy to scratch the children. Facilities: No bed guards, no children's toiletries, and even no children's toothbrushes. Service: No one at the reception desk responded. The front desk said they found the room when they couldn't find it at night. Overall, the exterior photos are good. The additional items are not cost-effective. Anything worthwhile requires extra charges.
