Zhongwei No.7 Starry Sky Tent Hotel
9.4 (1,977 reviews)

Zhongwei No.7 Starry Sky Tent Hotel ★★★★

📍 No. 128, Left Podium Building, Lvyouxin Town Visitor Center, Shapotou District, Zhongwei

"Even though it's a tent, it's still very convenient and the kids loved it! The hotel service was excellent. We had trouble finding a taxi in the evening when we were leaving, and the butler even helped us call one. The bonfire show included in the package was great, and we could also buy an activity pass for half price, which was amazing value!"

Desert Wild Star Lakeview Retreat
9.7 (155 reviews)

Desert Wild Star Lakeview Retreat ★★★

📍 No. 106, Building 3, Zhongwei Country Garden, Jichang Avenue, Shapotou District, Zhongwei

"The mattress was even better than those in regular hotels! The owner was incredibly helpful, and the surroundings were beautiful. The bonfire party in the evening had a fantastic atmosphere. In the mornings, there were study tours and hiking activities, including a desert water retrieval experience. They even had a professional instructor guiding stargazing lectures at night. The sunsets were stunning, and there were so many stars visible at night."

BEIDOU

BEIDOU ★★★★

📍 Room 1N12, Building 2, Ruifeng Community, No. 113 Yingli South Street, Shapotou District, Zhongwei

"Who understands, my family members! Stayed in a super cool starry sky tent in the Zhongwei Desert in Ningxia! Ride a camel to see the endless sand dunes during the day, and lie on the terrace to count the stars at night! The chef is amazing, every dish is delicious, the sizzling meat skewers grilled by the guy, the crispy butter wrapped with cumin burst on the tip of your tongue! The Border Collie named "Diandian" has been squatting like a stone statue, with the sand swept up by its tail rising and falling with the smell of meat, just waiting for you to feed it! The surfing car during the day and the bonfire party at night are all worth it. Now looking at the group photo on my phone, with its furry head still rubbing against my knees, I really want to pack my luggage right away and rush to Beidou Xingye!"

Impression Tengger Desert Camp
9.4 (479 reviews)

Impression Tengger Desert Camp ★★★

📍 Reception Office, No. 02, Building 3, South Area, Tourism New Town, Shapotou District, Zhongwei

"Choosing this desert hotel in Zhongwei was such a pleasant surprise! The room was spotless, well-dusted, and the AC worked perfectly. Having 24-hour hot water for showers was a big plus. Stepping out, you're right by the dunes, perfect for watching the desert sunset in the evening, and at night, the sky is filled with a breathtaking Milky Way – the ambiance is absolutely incredible. The staff were warm and attentive, and any issues were quickly addressed. The camp also offered bonfires and fireworks, making it especially great for families with kids. To have such a fantastic living experience in the desert exceeded all my expectations. Highly recommended if you're visiting Zhongwei!"

Royal No.81 Hotel
9.2 (704 reviews)

Royal No.81 Hotel ★★★

📍 No. 1 Huaiyuan South Street, Shapotou District, Zhongwei

"We stayed here for a one-night stay in the desert with our kids, and it was only a little over 100 yuan – a great deal! The receptionist was very nice; we arrived around 11 pm and they upgraded us since there were rooms available. There are many vendors selling selenium-rich watermelons near the entrance (local drivers said 10 yuan each, 15 yuan for two; I bought mine at the night market for 1.5 yuan per jin). There's a lamb restaurant to the right outside; their hand-pulled lamb is good, but the barbecue is not. A taxi from the train station costs 6 yuan (there will be touts along the way, but it's a local custom; you get used to it). A taxi to Jinshahai costs 50 yuan (the closest and most affordable place to do desert activities in Zhongwei). We'll definitely come back next time!"

Zhong Wei Soul Resort Hotel
9.3 (82 reviews)

Zhong Wei Soul Resort Hotel ★★★★★

📍 900 meters southwest of Shikongzhimen, Shapotou District, Zhongwei

"I checked out yesterday at noon. I booked the hotel after seeing it advertised in a live stream. I was really interested in this new hotel, which just opened in August. Before going, I specifically checked the reviews, and they weren't great; most complaints were about the service. I decided to give it a try anyway and booked for two nights. I understand that building a hotel in the desert is expensive, and the owner is clearly aiming for a long-term business model. However, given all the effort and investment, why is the service so lacking? The hardware facilities are actually quite decent, but the service truly falls short. Firstly, there was no greeting from the bellhop; they just immediately asked about check-in and took my luggage. At the front desk, the staff member processed my check-in without even looking up, no smile, no tea, no candies. After we got to the room, there were flies. I contacted a staff member, and they just brought an electric fly swatter for us to deal with ourselves. My child had nosebleeds on both the first and second day, and when I asked if there was a medical room, they said no, and that I'd have to go to Zhongwei city to buy supplies. There wasn't even the most basic level of concern. On the day of check-in, we received a fruit platter, but we hardly ate it because it was mostly apples, and the pears needed peeling. On the second day, there was no disposable toothbrush for my child, and the single-use toiletries were incredibly small, completely different from what was advertised. Overall, the experience was very poor. If the owner continues to operate like this, fewer and fewer people will visit. The breakfast was also mediocre, and I have pictures to prove it. The only thing I was most satisfied with was the hotel's design style, which is very beautiful and great for photos. It's such a shame that a hotel with such good design is let down by its service."

"The tent was fantastic, very clean, and I had a really comfortable stay. The owner's service was excellent, and the activities offered were great value. They also had amazing free educational programs, and the teacher made the learning activities so much fun! The bonfire party had a great vibe, complete with a fireworks show and open-air karaoke where you could sing your heart out. Sandboarding in the desert was unlimited. After our hike with the educational program teacher, the owner even brought us watermelon. This trip felt absolutely perfect and incredibly relaxing, and I got a wonderful experience for a very comfortable price. Thumbs up, thumbs up, thumbs up! I'll definitely be back."

BEIDOU ★★★★
"Overall, it was decent, I guess, considering it's in the desert and conditions are limited, so you can't expect too much. Stepping out, you're literally in the sand, and any small dune is perfect for sandboarding. The restaurant offered good meals for all three sittings, with options for à la carte or hot pot buffet. While the choices weren't extensive, it was fine for a two-day stay; I felt like I'd get tired of the food if I stayed longer. Also, paid desert activities like dune buggy rides and camel riding were more expensive here than at the nearby Tonghu Grassland scenic area. If you plan on doing paid activities, I'd suggest doing them at the scenic area first, then staying in the desert to enjoy free activities like sandboarding, hiking, and stargazing. I highly recommend stargazing; it's beautiful even with the naked eye. Finally, I booked this hotel mainly for the pool and professional astronomical telescope. The desert gets too hot in the afternoon, so besides swimming, you're pretty much stuck in your room with the AC on. There weren't many activities available here, and they said all the activity materials were out of stock. Well... on our first day, the water was too dirty to swim in. They did change the water on the second day, but it took all day, and by evening, the water still hadn't reached knee-level. Our child went in to splash around for a bit and said it was cold. When I touched it, I realized the water was ice-cold, like mountain spring water. We quickly took him back for a hot shower, fearing he'd catch a cold. Then, during stargazing that night, we found out the astronomical telescope was also broken, so we could only stargaze with our naked eyes... I'd just say it was a less-than-perfect desert trip."

"Traditional old hotel in the city center, but the staff can't explain normally what they want from a foreigner. So instead of contacting WeChat provided and explaining the staff knocked the door and then just opened it with the master key. Then, when they realized there is a minor only in the room, they have not left room and asked him to call parents etc. And according to later explanations "it was according to the hotel's internal regulations". Be aware"

"Soso is truly a top choice for families with kids! The all-day activities are incredibly rich and varied. With a 'Sand Play Room,' you can literally step out onto your balcony and enjoy playing in the sand – making it a super easy experience for parents. The bonfire party, fireworks, and stargazing activities really set a fantastic atmosphere. The staff's attitude is also excellent. You can genuinely enjoy a relaxing vacation here without even needing to leave the premises or deal with crowds. It's definitely a hotel worth visiting again!"

"The hotel is right next to Xiangyang Street, where there's lots of delicious food. The hotel also has its own restaurant, which offers great value for money. There's even free parking, making it perfect for road trippers. The room was generally clean and spacious, and the bathroom was also large and comfortable. I'd definitely come back again."
