Homestays in Xinjiang, China

Beautiful rooms, as per the picture. The amenities are quite complete. The washing machine is very convenient for longer stay, and you could hang your clothes at the balcony, plenty of space. For the service and amenities provided, this place is a good bargain. The owner are friendly and helpful. They helped us customised our four days three nights trip to Tashkurgan, ensuring us get the most out of our trip. And they even advised us on the preparation for the trio during our stay in Kashgar. We felt very welcomed staying at this place. The hostel is near to the carpet street, and it is best to call a taxi rather than walking to the old town, but it is pretty convenient and affordable to take taxi in China in general. There is a very nice grilled chicken and duck stall open at night near the hotel, in front of the Zhenyou Convenience Store, do try it if you have the chance!

This place is about a 15-minute drive from Taxian county, located off a rural road, quite a distance from the town center. The views are incredible, with direct sight of the snow-capped mountains – the scenery is absolutely stunning, and the tent atmosphere is just perfect. We arrived late on the day, so we didn't really experience much in the way of attentive service; it was just a quick check-in and some directions. Since it's a tent camp, you can't drive directly to your tent. Luggage needs to be transported by the scenic area's shuttle bus, which can be a bit of a hassle and tiring if you have a lot of stuff. The breakfast was pretty average, not particularly lavish, but considering its remote, outdoor location, this standard is understandable. It works perfectly fine if you're looking for a guesthouse-like stay. Also, it was incredibly windy that night. If you're sensitive to wind noise or other sounds, I'd recommend checking the weather forecast beforehand, otherwise, it might affect your sleep. Overall, the experience was decent. Its main draw is the scenery and the unique tent experience. If you're looking for peace and quiet while enjoying snow mountain views, this is the place to be.

This guesthouse immediately caught my eye when I was browsing accommodations. My friends and I chose the 'Bahar' room, which perfectly matched our aesthetic preferences. It's genuinely beautiful, featuring a bright, airy window. The entire guesthouse also boasts a wonderful ethnic charm. **Cleanliness:** Spotless. We arrived quite early, and a staff member was still diligently sanitizing the room. **Service:** Excellent. The owner was incredibly kind and gracious, and communication was very smooth. They even helped us with our luggage. **Location:** There are plenty of great restaurants nearby. It's also very conveniently located close to the Old City and the Gaotai Dwellings. **Facilities:** Excellent. It seems guests can even use the kitchen to cook here.

I stayed at this hotel with my dog. It's located in an old street with Xinjiang-style architecture. The room even had a long balcony, which was great for enjoying the view in the morning. There are also plenty of food options right next to the hotel. The front desk staff was very kind. Even though she was a little scared of my dog, she still wanted to pet his head a lot. I highly recommend this place for anyone visiting Turpan with their pet!

Traveling with my parents, our main requirements were spaciousness, cleanliness, and warmth. The two-bedroom suite we booked was very spacious, and the washbasin had two sinks, which was very convenient. The cleanliness was excellent, and the service was warm and welcoming. They responded to any questions immediately. For the air conditioning, make sure to select the heating mode first, then press the auxiliary heating button, or ask the butler to adjust it for you. It's been quite cold lately, so we needed to use the heating mode. With the air conditioning on, it was very warm. The two-bedroom suite had two large beds and two air conditioners. There were candles in the common area at night, creating a lovely atmosphere. In summer, the swimming pool in the common area would be even more beautiful for photos.

My friend and I (both from Ireland) stayed here for 4 days and had the best experience. The rooms were lovely and had everything we needed, and the location was perfect- right in the Old Town with lots of nice shops and cafes nearby and beautiful places to take photos. The best part was the staff- everyone was so friendly, welcoming, and helpful, and they really went above and beyond to make sure we had a great stay. It was really nice to meet lots of groups of travelers there from various countries, too. Would highly recommend!

We had a wonderful stay. The location was excellent, close to everything we needed, and the host was incredibly kind and helpful. She made us feel very welcome from the beginning. We were able to park our bicycles safely in the hallway, which was very convenient for us. Since we needed to cross the border, she went out of her way to help us by providing detailed information about the officials and even arranging a taxi. This was especially helpful because we didn’t have WeChat, and it made the whole process much easier for us. Thanks to her support, everything went smoothly, and we could truly relax and enjoy our time. We would definitely recommend staying here and would happily come back in the future.

Our stay at the Shar Starry Sky Glamping camp in Karajun Grassland was a truly rejuvenating and luxurious experience! The camp is nestled in the core area of a World Natural Heritage site, offering breathtaking views. From our window, we could see vast grasslands and continuous snow-capped mountains – the scenery was absolutely stunning. The starry dome we stayed in was incredibly impressive. It offered unobstructed panoramic views, allowing us to watch the grassland sunset right from our bed. At night, with no city light pollution, the Milky Way was clearly visible, and the provided telescope made stargazing super convenient – the kids absolutely loved it. Both the owner and the staff were incredibly attentive and thoughtful, responding 24/7. They even offered stargazing explanations. The camp provides excellent privacy, with ample space between each room, making it quiet and comfortable. Breakfast was rich and authentic, featuring traditional flatbread (nang) and fresh milk – the grassland cuisine was delicious. Away from the hustle and bustle, falling asleep under the stars and waking up to the view of snow-capped mountains – this is what a true luxury wilderness getaway should be. Highly recommended!

I'm not a shill, but I highly recommend it! First of all, the public area and toilet in the room are very clean, and the auntie cleans every day. The location is very good, just opposite the alley of Qiuci, and not far from the attractions in the city. The decoration of the house is very unique, it's very interesting to live in the room, and it's super cool to sit in the yard and chat and eat! The most important thing is that the atmosphere is really good, the boss and the clerk are super nice, and all the brothers and friends I met are very good. I stayed for three days and ate or shared meals every day (it was super delicious Han food, friends who want to eat vegetables and Han food are saved 😭, and I also ate zongzi on the Dragon Boat Festival), and I also took the brother's car to visit attractions outside the city. Haha. Anyway, I had a very happy three days.

👍🏻A very nice B&B. The public area is very atmospheric, where you can eat or chat. 🏨The room is clean and most importantly, quiet! Can have a good night's sleep. The only drawback is that there is no elevator. When you check in, you will help carry your luggage to the room, and you will take it down yourself when you check out. 🚗Parking is convenient, there is a parking lot downstairs. This place is very close to the Russian Style Street, but there is not much to do in this style street...
