"Finally got some time to write this review. First, the conclusion: in my parents' words, 'This was the most comfortable hotel they stayed in during their 10-day Xinjiang trip.'
Let's start with the bedding. It was very comfortable. There were two pillows, and the softer, lower one was just perfect in terms of firmness. The duvet thickness was also ideal – not like some hotels where the duvet is so thick you don't know whether to use it or not. This definitely gets 5 points; getting a good night's sleep when traveling is so important.
Next, the food. The breakfast was plentiful, with both Chinese and Western options. You absolutely must try their homemade tofu pudding; you can customize the condiments, and it's delicious. Late at night, there's also complimentary porridge and snacks. Just help yourself. Coming back to the hotel after a day out and having a bowl of porridge is quite nice.
As for the location, it's indeed convenient. There's a park nearby, and right downstairs next to the entrance is a supermarket (well-stocked and reasonably priced). Directly opposite the hotel, on the basement level of the mall, there's another supermarket. A local resident pointed us to it. It has almost everything you could need, which is very friendly for self-drivers or tourists looking to stock up. It's also a short walk to KAZANQI, very convenient.
Whether it was the front desk staff, the restaurant staff, or even the cleaning aunties, everyone was very friendly. Overall, this Atour hotel is well worth it, both in terms of service and all other aspects.
Almost forgot, there's a reading area in the lobby on the first floor with plenty of books, perfect for those who love to read or just want to relax."
