A Must-Visit Hotel in Xining!
In Xining, quality hotels are a rarity, making Sofitel Xining New Town a standout choice. The hotel's exterior, resembling a classical castle, boasts a striking replica of the Eiffel Tower—a design marvel that sets the tone for the entire stay. The hotel's common areas are perfect for capturing stunning photographs.
The front desk staff were incredibly helpful, graciously upgrading us to an executive room. The room itself exuded classical elegance and offered ample space. As executive guests, we enjoyed complimentary drinks, Parisian water, and exquisite afternoon tea and dinner.
Breakfast at the ground-floor Western restaurant showcased a variety of local delicacies. The generous portions of Qinghai beef noodle soup and the flavorful beef tripe soup were highlights, while the Danish pastries were exceptionally flaky and delicious.
Surrounded by numerous shopping malls, the hotel area provided convenient dining options, especially with several eateries offering delicious beef noodle soups and handmade noodles. The cleanliness of the New Town area made it perfect for leisurely strolls.
