A recommanded stay in ZhangYe

A little gem for a foreigner. It is a hostel, so you can’t expect the comfort hotels offer but you find a helpful staff who speaks English and who will help you with your excursions at a much better price than the one you ' ll get with agencies. We ́ve seen the main attractions with them , including a 2-day-trip in the Badan Jaran desert.

We stayed in this hostel because the staff speaks English and was of great help for the excursions around at a very reasonable price (especially when compared to the foolish prices asked by agencies). We visited the Badan Jaran desert, the rainbow mountains, mati si, Pingshanhu... The rooms are very cheap and very clean. On the whole I highly recommand this place if you don’t speak Mandarin.

Very nice, good spot to explore the city and see the surrounding area.

Location was good, close to restaurants and things to see while still off the main roads. Hosts had full recommendation lists to send out as well as great instructions of how to get to and find the place.

This hostel is the place to be in Zhangye. The rooms are comfy with curtains around the bed, the washroom is hugh, there is lots of space to do and dry your laundry, there is a kitchen, its really clean and it has a very convenient location right next to a food court. Its a great place to meet other travellers aswell, a nice mix of chinese and european tourists were staying here when i visited. But above all: the staff! They are superfriendly, kind and absolutly amazing!! They can help with all sorts of questions about the sights around Zhangye. Offering information about public transportation but also offering convenient tours. They also helped me with a lot of unusual questions. It was superhelpfull, thank you so much. I stayed here 6 years ago, very recently again and will definitly come back in the future aswell!

The place is a good quality for price deal and the service is great, really helpfull and nice staff. Thanks to one of the receptionists i could book a taxi at 3am. The place is well heated during winter and the rest is flawless. Maybe ask before if you have trouble sleeping on hard matresses but i personnaly like it so. Thanks again to the very nice receptionnist ! The minibus to Danxia Mountains is so cheap !

Staff was super friendly and helpful. They helped us book the tour cars to the grand canyon, daxia rainbow mountains and the grottoes. Super convenient and cheap. They even gave us free breakfast, while it was not included in the booking, i think it came with the cars we booked. They also gave great restaurant recommendations. You can do laundry there, bathrooms are very clean and vibe is really friendly. Location is great, in the middle of the center, Zhangye is a nice city to roam around.
