"It was my first time to experience ******* houses. It was quite special. Their house was very big. The biggest highlight was that there was a large public area on the second floor where you could drink tea and chat, and children could walk around and play. The boss was very nice, and there were also breakfast drinks. The room was all wooden, and I personally was not used to the smell. I chose a private bathroom, but the room was very small. The one in the picture without a bathroom was very large. It depends on your personal preference."
"The owner was incredibly nice, rushing to greet us and serve us!
We stayed on the second and third floors, and they carried our luggage up there. They recommended delicious food and kept us warm. They even gave us a fridge magnet when we left! A must-stay when visiting Labrang Monastery! Clean and tidy! And so welcoming!"
The Nirvana Hotel provides a great place for travelers to relax after a busy day. Visitors to Xiahe will find that the Nirvana Hotel is a fantastic accommodation choice. The hotel is approximately 62km away from Gannan Xiahe Airport. The nearest airport is Gannan Xiahe Airport, approximately 62km away. There's plenty to do nearby, with Depository of Buddhist Sutras, Labrang Sky Burial Platform and Labrang Monastery - Tsongkhapa Buddha Hall all within a short distance. This hotel makes a great place to kick back and relax after a long day of sightseeing. Our guests consider this hotel to have excellent service.
"Very nice staff and extremely close to the monastery entrance without the noise being too bad, tucked round a corner off the main drag.
The rooms are spacious and comfortable - the only issue we had was no hot water for the first night/ morning - after we spoke to the lady at reception it was fine for the remainder of our stay.
The bar area is nice, we didn't try the food but very cosy for drinks."

GGuest UserWe absolutely loved our stay at 山古民宿 Shangu Homestay. The room was spacious, well presented in ******* style, and kept wonderfully warm with underfloor heating. The window-side lounge area was so cozy that we didn’t want to leave after three nights. Dinner was a highlight—the ******* hotpot was delicious, with fresh yak meat, vegetables, and noodles. Breakfast included fruit, ******* butter tea, and tsampa, giving us a real taste of local traditions.
The host was incredibly welcoming and shared fascinating stories about ******* culture, nomadic life, and even how to make incense. During our stay, it snowed heavily, and our children had a fantastic time playing in the snow with the host. It was not just accommodation, but a cultural journey filled with warmth and unforgettable memories. Highly recommended!
我們非常喜歡山古民宿!房間充滿西藏風格,寬敞舒適,還有地暖讓整個空間非常溫暖。窗邊的坐臥區特別舒服,我們住了三個晚上,離開時還依依不捨。晚餐的藏式火鍋令人驚艷,新鮮的氂牛肉、蔬菜和麵條都非常美味。早餐提供水果、藏式酥油茶和糌粑,讓我們真切感受到藏族的飲食文化。
民宿主人非常熱情,分享了許多關於藏族文化、遊牧生活以及製作藏香的故事,讓我們收穫滿滿。在住宿期間還遇上一場大雪,孩子和民宿主人一起玩雪,笑聲不斷,留下了難忘的回憶。這次的體驗不僅是住宿,更像是一場深度的文化之旅,我們非常推薦!
DDarylThe house was absolutely beautiful! The hosts were very kind and friendly. There were very good mountains for long hikes right behind the house and the views from the top of the mountain were very good. The house was also a medium walk away from the Labrang monastery and we found it very calming to get up early to spin the prayer wheels there. We absolutely recommend this beautiful house and helpful hosts for others.
GGuest UserIt is in the alley next to the White Pagoda, very close to Labrang Monastery. We booked this oldest restaurant, with a simple ******* style and a relatively small space, especially the bathroom. It was still cold at night in August with the air conditioner turned on. Although the hardware is a bit inferior, the service is better. The housekeeper boy and girl are very enthusiastic. They went to the parking lot of the tourist service center to pick us up and help with the luggage. There is also a free yak hot pot. Adults and children are very satisfied. The two cats in the yard are also very cute.
GGuest UserWe opted for tent camping on the Sangke Grassland during the Gannan Loop! It was a unique experience. The campsite had a one-on-one butler, and a friendly staff member helped us with our luggage both during check-in and check-out. The service was excellent! The breakfast was simple, as shown in the picture, but it was filling. The campsite had a beautiful view, and the campsite was relatively quiet on our arrival day, allowing us to enjoy a peaceful and beautiful night. However, since it's on the grassland, there were plenty of flying insects, making it feel quite pristine!
FFC6685The facilities are new and clean, the boss is hospitable, the scenery is pleasant, suitable for relaxation and stargazing. But because there is no air conditioning, it will be a bit cold in early June, and it should be more comfortable in July and August. I will come again if I have the chance.
GGuest UserMy trip to Gannan ended, and I've been home for two days now. I have to add this belated review today.
Location and Natural Beauty
The hotel is nestled on the edge of the Sangke Grassland, offering vast grassland scenery as soon as you step out the door. On our check-in day, the welcoming owner offered to take us for a walk by a nearby stream. Verdant grass lay beneath our feet, dotted with wildflowers, the stream gurgled, and in the distance, cattle and sheep strolled leisurely. It felt like stepping into an untouched natural landscape. This immersive experience, detached from the hustle and bustle of life, was one of the greatest surprises of the trip.
Service is in the Details
What touched us most was the owner's thoughtfulness. Due to our tight schedule the next day, we planned to depart at 7:30 AM. We had planned to skip breakfast, but the owner specifically inquired about our departure time the night before and prepared a hot breakfast the next morning. Bread, milk tea, and side dishes...the simple fare held the most simple warmth, making us feel like family on a cool morning. This selfless enthusiasm far exceeds expectations of ”hotel service.”
Summary
This isn't just a hotel offering accommodations; it's a warm, grassland inn. If you're looking for a place on the Sangke Grasslands where you can experience local hospitality, this is definitely worth choosing. The owner's sincerity and the beautiful grassland scenery will be the most unforgettable moments of your trip.
AAnonymous UserWe stayed three nights at Nirvana Resort in early July and loved our time there. Spectacular location, the grasslands are alive with flowers and birds, and everyone at Nirvana was kind and helpful. We had our own car (ideal if possible) and alongside visiting Labrang Monastery and walking in the nearby hills, we also enjoyed driving around the backroads into Qinghai and immersing ourselves in the landscape. At the end of each day it was perfect to climb the hill to the Sky Bar and drink a beer while watching the land grow dark.
GGuest UserThe dorm was very clean and equipped with a kettle, which was nice. I was the only guest during my stay. As mentioned in the other reviews, the dorm is located in the basement and you have to walk a bit to reach the toilet.
The „shower“ is located across the front desk. It’s a small room where the hotel is storing their cleaning equipment, so showering there is a quite dirty and unpleasant experience. As there are so many dorms in the basement (I would guess 50+ beds), I wonder how they would handle the situation if the hotel is fully booked.
Overall I would recommend staying there for one night, if you are not picky.
GGuest UserThe hotel is in a great location, facing the gate of the scenic area. The room decoration is quite unique. The lady at the front desk will also help with luggage. The room does not include breakfast, but the boss later gave it to me. It is generous. It is recommended to provide disposable sheets instead of blankets.
IiinoiinoThe boss is very enthusiastic and the waiter is also very nice!
Five-star hotel with particularly high accommodation requirements! The homestay is to experience the customs and customs here ~
Seven of us lived in two rooms ~ One of them had a fully automatic mahjong table (surprise surprise) ~ instant value back to the price! Hot pot and stir-fry are provided~ stir-fry
The taste is very good for our group of seven people. It is more in line with our taste~ It feels very good when you enter the door! The overall feeling is still very clean, no other evaluation is so bad! The boss finally sent us tea~
