Dunhuang Mengzhitu Hotel (Mingsha Mountain and Crescent Moon Spring Scenic Area)

Wonderful inn at an unbeatable price. The free airport transfer was very smooth, and we were given early check in and a free room upgrade (get the desert view, it's worth it! You can see the ming sha dunes change colour throughout the day, as well as goats and alpacas roaming the property.) The room was very clean, especially the washroom and shower, and the water pressure and hot water was very good. I think this is a family-run place, because the atmosphere is very open and warm. The owners were helpful with providing tips on how to get around and were always around to help and say hello and goodbye as you left and came back. It is just a bit outside the city centre, which adds to the charm; we called didi for most of our transport. The inn is also only about 3km to the mingsha dunes and crescent lake, which allowed me to go twice during my trip (one ticket is good for three days of entries). I have travelled all around China for one month, and this is my pick for a value stay.

Great accommodation with super welcoming service. Even though we arrived really early in the morning, they let us get into the room in order to rest. The facilities are in good shape and everything was perfectly clean. Great choice if you're in Dunhuang!

Good location,attentive staff,comfortable and quiet environment
