Homestays in Inner Mongolia, China

After looking at several guesthouses and yurts, we finally chose Xingchen Mujia, right next to Huahai Ranch. I was worried my child wouldn't be used to staying in a yurt, so I picked a grassland accommodation with standard rooms, and the environment was very clean. Also, I saw in the reviews that their roast lamb chops were good, and the set menu offered decent value for money on the grasslands. We tried the lamb chops, and they were indeed excellent; our whole family was practically fighting over them! The owners are also very welcoming and friendly. They thoughtfully advised us on what to look out for when dealing with local drivers. The male owner is very talkative and can share many stories about the grasslands. Just a few hundred meters walk from the accommodation, there's a grassland high point where you can watch the sunrise and sunset. We took many beautiful photos there.

I spent the weekend with family and friends visiting the Desert Herdsman Homestay, and the overall experience far exceeded my expectations. Highly recommended! The courtyard landscaping is very tasteful, with an exquisite and elegant Chinese-style welcoming pine tree. Sitting in the private courtyard, enjoying tea and conversation is incredibly relaxing. The outdoor barbecue area is well-planned, with tables suitable for small gatherings, a large canopy with a rainproof roof for team building meals, and a full range of commercial grills, making it convenient for self-service grilling skewers and roasting whole lamb. The elevated camping platform under the trees offers shade from the native forest, decorated with Mongolian patterns that add a local touch, creating a fantastic tent camping atmosphere. The owner cleverly uses the well house as a popular photo spot, with auspicious text and koi fish decorations, resulting in excellent photos. Nestled in the countryside, backed by cornfields and protective forests, the environment is quiet and free from urban noise, with low light pollution at night, allowing for clear stargazing. The venue is well-maintained, with gravel paving and hardened floors that are both aesthetically pleasing and fireproof and drainage-resistant. The owner is warm and welcoming, and food and equipment can be booked in advance. It's suitable for short trips to the suburbs, family gatherings, company team building, and camping stays. It's a rare gem of a rural homestay in the Dalate Banner area, with an elegant and pristine environment, thoughtfully designed photo spots, and attentive service. It's suitable for team building and family trips. The hygiene details are handled meticulously, making it a worry-free experience. Every facility and room is newly renovated, with coordinated colors for the bedding and curtains. The rooms are clean, bright, and comfortable, and quiet, perfect for relaxation.

Few people, beautiful scenery, and family-friendly accommodations equal a perfect vacation! The stylishly designed guest rooms are scattered across the vast grasslands, offering exceptional privacy, allowing children to run freely without disturbing others. The rooms are comfortable, and every space is meticulously designed (sitting by the window, gazing at the grassy slopes and simply relaxing is a great way to unwind). We recommend waking up in the morning to watch the mist drift across the valley, hiking the nearby grassy slopes, enjoying the dairy products of herders, and stargazing by the campfire at night—this is the true meaning of ”wild luxury.”

Specifically brought the kids here for Children's Day. The guesthouse environment is great, with a starry sky yurt and convenient parking. They even prepared snacks and drinks in the room. The surrounding area is beautiful and very close to the volcano attractions. The hotel also provided discount vouchers for hot spring tickets. Dining is convenient, and breakfast is excellent, with kids' meals available. On weekend evenings, they even arranged a bonfire and fireworks.

I chose this yurt because I wanted to try something a little different, and I never expected such a warm welcome. From the moment I arrived, they made me feel at home, and it was clear that they genuinely wanted me to have a great stay. Even though we didn't speak the same language, it was never a problem with the help of a few translation apps and plenty of smiles, we were able to communicate and share some wonderful moments. I was even invited to enjoy a homemade traditional meal with the family, a simple yet heartfelt experience that will remain one of my favorite travel memories. The yurt itself is very comfortable and beautifully decorated. Spending the night in such a unique setting was an unforgettable experience. In the morning, I was treated to a delicious homemade breakfast, another thoughtful touch that made my stay even more enjoyable. I even had the chance to try on a traditional outfit, take some photos, and enjoy a fun karaoke session during my stay. If you're looking for a genuine local experience rather than a standard hotel stay, I highly recommend this place. It offers a rare opportunity to experience true hospitality, and it's a memory I'll cherish for a long time. I couldn't be happier with my stay. If I have the chance to visit China again, I will definitely come back here without a second thought.

As the last stop of our Hulunbuir trip, this guesthouse absolutely exceeded our expectations! The owner was incredibly welcoming and even upgraded our room. The room itself was designed in a wabi-sabi style, with smart home features throughout, and the bedding was exceptionally comfortable. We slept so well, it truly rivaled many high-end hotels. Before we left, the owner even gave us a small gift. If we ever come back to Arxan, we will definitely choose to stay here again!

I traveled alone with my 3 year old daughter and we had a fantastic stay! The owner was very kind to upgrade us to the largest king size bed room which was very spacious for my kid to run around. Unfortunately she didn’t realize we booked 2 nights and made us move the second night but still gave us an upgraded room! She made up for it by helping me move and watch my child while I settled into the second room. She and the restaurant chef were so kind with allowing us to eat a late breakfast because my child was too tired and could not wake up in time before breakfast ended. The chef made us a delicious fried rice with some tomato/eggs and hot Mongolian milk te which was the best meal we’ve had in Inner Mongolia because we are tired of eating lamb. Everyone treated us so well and loved my outgoing daughter. We sang karaoke at night and my daughter sat on the swings and ran around in the courtyard playing. I loved that the light to the AC turns off when the room lights turn off but the AC is still working. It makes sleep so much better to not have a light shining on you. The rooms are very new and there’s lots of cabinet space. Parking is available. Bottled water, slippers, shampoos/body wash are all provided. We also got free tickets to the grassland which we unfortunately could not make it to but appreciated. Thank you to the owner and the staff for making our stay so comfortable! We will definitely come back and stay again!

前台女孩是個温暖的四川妹妹，我們晚上九點才到海拉爾，她打電話過來，讓我們慢慢開車，又發微信讓我們小心路上可能出現動物。 木刻楞充滿異域風情，讓我們眼前一亮，頗為興奮。衹是木刻楞隔音是通病，過於計較的旅遊者要避開，免得大家都不舒服。喜歡木刻楞的一定要體驗一下這種風格的房子，特別是喜歡拍照的，非常出片。房間後面，一條河流緩緩流過，美極了。牧場上也有蒙古包，喜歡蒙古包的可以有另外的選擇。 第二天見到場主，是個極有內涵的男孩子，温和而有江南男子的影子，倒是不像草原上獵風的漢子。 因為第二天牧場的馬要運出去野騎，但是場主還是特意留了一些馬，等我們騎完之後才運走，蒙古人的淳樸可見一斑

It was a wise decision to stay in this loft B&B next to the East Railway Station when traveling to Hohhot this time! As a tourist from other places, you can arrive quickly after getting off the train. The transportation is super convenient. The host was as enthusiastic as family. He not only patiently answered our questions, but also shared travel tips and food recommendations for the surrounding area. I was stunned the moment I walked into the room. The design of the Loft is very stylish, and the space layout is reasonable and full of artistic sense. The room is spotless, the facilities are new and complete, the bedding is soft and comfortable, and the toiletries are exquisite. Living here is particularly safe and comfortable, and it feels like being at home. I highly recommend it to friends who come to Hohhot. I will choose here again next time!

Absolutely thrilled with my stay, it completely exceeded my expectations! The accommodation experience was fantastic, and it made my entire trip so enjoyable. When I arrived, it was pouring rain, and I was a bit bummed, thinking I wouldn't be able to see anything. But then, shortly after I dropped off my luggage, the weather cleared up, and I was incredibly lucky to see a huge rainbow! In the evening, I got to witness the spectacular sunset I'd hoped for. Standing on the hillside, I could see the entire grassland and yurts bathed in a pink glow – it was absolutely breathtaking, photos don't do it a millionth of justice. The next day, the weather was beautiful. I woke up at 4 AM to catch the hazy sunrise, and when I pulled back the curtains, there was nothing but endless grassland and blue skies with white clouds. The accommodation itself was incredibly comfortable! The yurt was well-equipped and spotlessly clean inside. The bedding was soft and cozy, and the hot water, air conditioning, lighting, and toiletries were all excellent. Yesterday, there were seven-force winds, and I thought the yurt wouldn't hold up, but it was super sturdy! As for bugs, I didn't see a single one in the yurt yesterday. As long as you keep the mosquito net at the entrance closed, it should significantly reduce their appearance. Finally, the service from the staff was so warm and thoughtful. The sister who hosted us was genuinely friendly and down-to-earth. She proactively told us about the local ethnic culture, and for breakfast, she even prepared local specialty dishes – so meticulous and considerate. This time, I also got to try on Mongolian robes for free, and there were so many beautiful options to choose from. If I didn't have to go back to work, I would definitely stay for a week. In short, I highly recommend everyone to come and experience it!
