4-Star Hotels in Bole

🙂 Sharing a hidden gem hotel I discovered in Bole. Last night, we returned to Bole City from Sayram Lake Scenic Area after 10 PM. We had booked the Bole Xihai Lijing Hotel (Bole Grand Bazaar Branch) in advance. The hotel is located right next to the Grand Bazaar, with beautiful night views and convenient parking. The lobby was very comfortable, with a luxurious and warm decor. The receptionists were friendly and attentive. The room was even more satisfying; it was very warm, fully equipped with smart technology including a smart toilet, automatic curtains, a smart bathroom mirror, a hairdryer, and a kettle. The room was clean and tidy, with attention to detail, and even included an emergency flashlight, bottled water, tea, and coffee. Breakfast was on the third floor, beautifully decorated and clean. Unfortunately, we forgot the breakfast time and arrived late the next morning; the restaurant had already closed. However, a lovely lady in the restaurant said they had some side dishes, steamed buns, eggs, and milk, and offered to prepare them for us if possible. Surprisingly, the side dishes were plentiful and delicious, including incredibly tasty braised beef. The milk was also authentic and rich, making for a truly satisfying meal. I'm so grateful for the hotel restaurant's attentive service! 🌹🌹 Also, there's a Snow Lotus Restaurant next to the hotel entrance, with luxurious decor and a strong exotic flair. It's always brightly lit and packed at night. On our evening at the hotel, we had a hot and comforting lamb soup rice (everything at the restaurant was delicious, but it was too late to try it). During this trip, I only stayed one night at the hotel and didn't have time to explore the bazaar. Next time I'm in Bole, this hotel will be my go-to place! ❤🥰🥰

A really nice B&B! **Amenities**: The room was fully equipped with air conditioning, underfloor heating, a wet/dry separated bathroom, and a large balcony perfect for tea and relaxing. **Environment**: It's very close to the new Sayram Lake Tourist Center, just a traffic light away by car, takes only a few minutes. After verifying your ID (provided you've bought tickets in advance), you can enter. Turning right takes you counter-clockwise around the lake, and turning left takes you clockwise. **Service**: There's a dedicated butler providing one-on-one service. Whatever you need, just message them on WeChat and they respond very quickly.

As an Atour member, I decisively chose to stay at Atour when visiting Sayram Lake this time, making it convenient for a second visit the next day, even though Atour's room rates were almost double those of other hotels. The quality at Atour is always guaranteed; the facilities are good, the bedding is comfortable, and the hygiene is reassuring. Upon arrival, a slightly plump lady at the entrance helped with my luggage, and the front desk staff was very welcoming. Both check-in and check-out came with complimentary souvenirs, and the service was truly excellent. However, there are a few things worth mentioning. Initially, I tried to book through the Atour mini-program, but it consistently showed no availability. So I checked other hotels on Trip.com, and to my surprise, Atour had rooms there, so I booked immediately. But because I booked through a third-party app, member benefits like room upgrades weren't available, which I understand given it's a popular scenic spot and rooms are in high demand. My room was on the first floor, right next to the hotel's main entrance. Around 1 AM, a large tour group seemed to arrive, creating a lot of noise that severely impacted my sleep. I called the front desk twice to ask them to remind the guests to lower their voices and keep quiet, but it didn't have much effect. The situation lasted for nearly an hour until all the guests had checked in and it finally quieted down. Although the duty manager called to apologize later, I still feel that the hotel's management needs to be strengthened.

Finally made it to the highly anticipated Sayram Lake! My classmate insisted we try the vendace restaurant, Gaobaigu Yufang. Once I entered the room, I realized Gaobaigu Yufang was right 'in front' of me! The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable, with great hot water and effective air conditioning. The hotel also provided a fruit platter and snacks that were exceptionally delicious/unique. It's very close to Sayram Lake, making it convenient to get around. After returning from the scenic area, we went to Gaobaigu Yufang for dinner – perfect! The vendace, a must-try at the restaurant, was prepared two ways: half steamed and half in a hotpot. It was a full and rewarding day, and a very satisfying stay. Thank you, thank you again!

I originally booked the Blue Lake International, but found out it didn't have air conditioning, so I switched to Orange Crystal. Among the hotels near the East Gate of Sai Lake, this one offers excellent value for money. The facilities are great, especially the coffee corner in the room, which provides everything you need for pour-over coffee and tea. I have to highlight their service, which was truly outstanding. Nana and Xia Xia, the ladies at the front desk, proactively asked about our needs. The complimentary cocktails were even delivered to our room, and they gave us a thoughtful souvenir when we checked out. The hotel also offers a shuttle bus to the Sai Lake Tourist Center. The only drawback was the restaurant; during breakfast, with about 60% occupancy, spoons and bowls weren't replenished promptly.

I really appreciate the camp shuttle service for helping me with my heavy luggage, both from the car park to my tent and then back again. A big thank you to the service staff! The room decor was lovely, the surrounding environment was beautiful, and it was a short drive to the scenic area. It was very convenient to drive around the lake, entering and exiting through the East Gate to return to the hotel. We arrived at the hotel at 6 PM and left for the scenic area at 8:30 PM. Feeling that we wouldn't make it back before the restaurant closed at 11 PM, we paid in advance and arranged for our meal to be delivered to our room at 10 PM. We returned at midnight and were so happy to see our packed meal waiting on the table as promised. The next day, after checking out at 10 AM, we went back to the scenic area again, this time entering through the East Gate and exiting through the South Gate, to get another look at Sayram Lake, which we hadn't seen clearly the day before! 😄

To visit the Atlantic's Last Teardrop, I stayed just outside the scenic area's East Gate. The hotel staff at the front desk were incredibly warm and attentive, and the breakfast was delicious and plentiful. The hotel is also a short walk from the nearby commercial street, offering a wide variety of dining options.

The hotel is located near the Sayram Lake Tourist Center, making it very convenient to enter the scenic area. Our room was upgraded, and we could even catch a glimpse of Sayram Lake – it was truly beautiful. However, despite being a Marriott, some of the amenities felt a bit lacking. The children's toiletries provided were dirty; it looked like they had been used and not properly cleaned before being put back in the box. Luckily, we had brought our own, so we didn't need to use theirs. The sound insulation in the room was poor. Perhaps because our room was close to the emergency exit, it was especially noisy in the morning. Still, it wasn't a huge impact on me, so it wasn't a big deal.

I specifically chose this place for my trip. Since you can't stay inside the scenic area, I opted for this campsite right next to it. It's just a 5-minute drive, which saved a lot of hassle. The camp environment is tranquil, and the air is exceptionally fresh. The room facilities are well-equipped, the bathroom is clean and hygienic, and the bedding is comfortable for a good night's sleep. From sunrise to stargazing, every moment of the scenery is captivating, and the service is meticulous and attentive. It's a great place to stay when visiting Sayram Lake.

I originally booked the resort, but then got upgraded to the Puli Hotel. The location is superb, very close to the East Gate of Sayram Lake, making it incredibly convenient for getting around. The king-size room was spacious and bright, with a brand-new light luxury decor. The large bed was soft and comfortable for sleeping. The panoramic floor-toceiling windows offered stunning views of the snowy mountains and spruce trees; waking up to watch the sunrise and enjoying the lake colors in the evening was absolutely breathtaking. The underfloor heating kept the entire room warm and cozy, and the attention to detail was impeccable, with friendly and thoughtful service. The breakfast was plentiful. A perfect experience, highly recommended!
