2-Star Hotels in Kangding

The Treasure Sunlight B&B hidden at the foot of Gediram is particularly clean. The two ancient trees in front of the courtyard are more than photographed, the solid wood decoration of the room is clean and tidy, and the floor-to-ceiling windows face the mountain scenery. The proprietress was caring and kind. The two children in her family enthusiastically took us to find groundhog interactions, and it was full of fun. It is very close to Gediram, and the human touch and scenery are both online.

As a self-proclaimed ”Sichuan West enthusiast” who spends at least 20 days a year driving through the region, this was my sixth time venturing into this land. I've stayed in countless hotels and guesthouses over the years, but this time, ”Linxi Xiaozhu” in Kangding still made our whole family feel a unique warmth. The guesthouse's location is very convenient; it's a short walk from the highway exit into town, and about a 20-minute walk to Kangding Love Song Square. The most surprising thing was the exceptionally large parking lot, a godsend for travelers like us with an SUV and plenty of luggage. While the room facilities weren't luxurious, they were clean, tidy, and fully equipped, making for a very comfortable stay. What truly impressed us was the service. The two young ladies at the front desk, Zhuoma, were gentle and welcoming. They proactively greeted us every day, helped with our luggage, and brought us fresh fruit and local snacks. Seeing that we had children, they thoughtfully provided small-sized disposable slippers—a detail that showed their attention to detail. The local restaurants they recommended were also authentic and incredibly delicious. We booked two rooms and stayed for three whole days. Every day we had all sorts of questions—from road conditions to attractions, from the weather to food—and they always answered patiently and without complaint. This kind of genuine, heartfelt service is becoming increasingly rare in many commercialized accommodations these days. On the day we left, the sun finally came out in Kangding. Although the temperature was still quite low, the sunshine warmed our hearts. My mother said, ”The weather here is warm, but the people are even warmer.” These words expressed the feelings of our whole family. We sincerely hope the owner will reward these two excellent employees; they are the most valuable asset of ”Linxi Xiaozhu.” Next time we come to Kangding, we will definitely stay here again!

Dumu Cang B&B Review This stay at Dumu Cang B&B far exceeded my expectations. Their dedication was evident in so many ways, and I absolutely have to give it a thumbs-up! Environment The B&B's ambiance was truly amazing! From the carefully arranged greenery in the courtyard to the layout of the common areas, it exudes a natural and warm atmosphere, creating stunning photos. The view from the room was also fantastic; just opening the window, you're greeted by a breathtaking view, instantly soothing the fatigue of travel. Cleanliness The cleanliness was impeccable, with meticulous attention to detail. The bedding was clean and soft, with no odor at all. The bathroom tile grout and sink corners were spotless, and even the towels and bath towels exuded a fresh, clean feel. I felt incredibly comfortable staying here. Service The service was incredibly warm and thoughtful! From the pre-stay consultation to the arrival greeting, the staff were incredibly helpful. They were always quick to respond and assist with any requests, and they proactively shared nearby attractions and restaurants, offering genuine friend-like support. Facilities The room was fully equipped and functional. The air conditioning was quick to cool and heat, and the hot water supply was reliable. The toiletries were of excellent quality, and even the little details like the hair dryer and charging sockets were thoughtfully considered and extremely convenient. I didn't have to worry about missing anything in a B&B. Overall, it was a fantastic stay. I'll definitely choose Dumu Cang again next time I'm in the area!

Excellent value for money! If it's off-season, you can pretty much have the six-bed dorm all to yourself. The bathrooms, showers, and laundry room are also very clean. The owner is incredibly welcoming and helpful; definitely add them on WeChat for tips on food, drinks, and entertainment in Kangding!

The overall living experience is very good, the room is well lit and the sound insulation effect is very good. The boss is warm and generous and can recommend local specialties. The road conditions are smooth and parking is convenient. Whether you are passing by by car or staying to play, the stay experience is comfortable.

Environment: There are many restaurants, small shops, fruit vendors, and a pharmacy nearby. Cleanliness: This is one of the worst hotels I've ever stayed in. The disposable slippers were used by previous guests, and the soles were dirty. The shopkeepers then put them back in paper bags for the next guest. The headboard had traces of dried yellow liquid, and the sheets had many black spots. There were cigarette boxes left in the closet from previous guests. The toilet had urine stains, so I couldn't sit down. They provided alcohol wipes, but they were also dry. The sink had black sand in the water, and the disposable cups were covered in disposable bags... It was really bad. Read the reviews; there's a clear pattern. There's even the owner's own online post... Hilarious! She's the same owner as the restaurant downstairs. I generally give good reviews to all the hotels I stay in, but this one was truly terrible. Service: Check-in took a long, long time, with no explanation...

We happen to visit Dartsedo (or commonly know as Kanding) in October, at the time of a big national holiday. So, the town was full of visitors from the mainland. Our original hotel has rejected our booking and this hostel was one of the very few options left. We booked 3 rooms in total. There are lots of good things that could be said about this hostel. The owner and the staff ladies were very nice and super helpful. They had accepted to wash our bag of travel clothes in the facilities free of charge, which was very kind. The rooms were what could be expected from this type of accommodation and for booking last minute. All was much nicely arranged that what we have expected for a hostel and the bedding were very clean .The common areas where also kept clean at all time. The shower area are on the small side, but all had hot water, towels, overall not great as maintenance but clean and functional. Our room was probably the only one that was facing a brick wall not a street, but we were OK with it. Anyone visiting this area from the West, should be ready to use squat toilets, which are common in this part of the world. Our room was probably the only one equipped with it. The bed had some kind of board instead of a mattress, but still was comfortable to sleep. The location was great. Obviously if you are a Westerner, you shouldn't expect a peaceful place , but this hostel is on the main street leading to the ”Love square”, with many nice places to eat and buy what you need. And the walk up to the central town is short and pleasant. The only recommendation we can make is to put some mosquitos repellent, Our room was for some reason had the most and that made it difficult to sleep.. On the downside, but we know it's a common problem for the town- there is no parking for the hostel and in general very difficult to find a parking place in this town. And the hostel is on the 3rd floor, so you should be prepared to take your luggage on the stairs.

After comparing several hotels, I chose Kangsheng. This hotel has a very high cost performance. It is located on the pedestrian street on the left side of Liuliu. There is someone to meet you at the door. The environment is good and it is not noisy at night. The photos seen on the website are the same as the actual ones, and the hygiene conditions are also very good.

Amazing hostel with cozy interior and a really lovely host who made the stay extra enjoyable! The location was ideal for me as the hostel is high enough up the hill that you get an stunning view but still only have to walk around 10 minutes (up/down hill) to get to the centre of the city. The rooms were comfortable and clean and the common area for relaxing is beautifully decorated in traditional ******* style. The host was really helpful and caring (always bringing us tea and snacks) and we had some great conversations with her about life in Kangding. She gave us lots of advice on what to do in the city, helped us out organizing cheap transport back to Chengdu, and even made us a super unique and delicious fusion meal of yak steak with salad. Highly recommend if you’re looking for somewhere with a traditional feel and a great view!

Such a good place in the heart of Tagong! Very clean and the owner is an amazing person! I booked a double room but he offered me a free upgrade to a bigger room. He also helped me book a bus and came all the way with me to the bus station to make sure I board the right bus. I really recommend this place!
