2-Star Hotels in Qinghai, China

Haiyou Hotel is truly a hidden gem among budget hotels! The price is affordable, but the experience is incredibly good value. The room was clean and tidy, and the bedding was comfortable – it completely exceeded my expectations. For travelers on a budget who still want quality, this is definitely a top choice! The front desk staff was so warm and helpful! She proactively upgraded my room and even provided detailed information on local eateries and transportation routes. Any requests I had during my stay were addressed incredibly quickly, making me feel right at home.

Sheng 45 Is located a 25 minute walk from city attractions and a 15+ minute taxi ride to the train and bus stations. Around 8am and 5pm, traffic is terrible because of parents picking up their kids at the nearby school. The Good The best part was the social experience. A couple volunteers were very friendly. They played games and watched movies with us in the communal area on the ground floor. It is a great place to meet people. The Bad While the dorm bed and room were comfortable, there were significant issues elsewhere. The door to the room made loud noises whenever entering and exiting that disturbed sleep. Someone kept the door to the roof outside open, permitting the toxic stench from the nearby auto shop inside as well as street noise and humidity. There was only one functioning squat toilet on the third floor in a dirty bathroom with little privacy—one of the doors wouldn’t close.

The hotel is conveniently located. The staff were very helpful and patient with me when I encountered problems with my wifi. The rooms were clean and considering the price I paid, the hotel is good enough. If I ever return to Xining, I will stay there again.

Really comfy for short break! I want to go to Tibet via Xinning and it was rainning also that day so I decided to take more time and the receptionist said yes I can. Really thoughtful. The place is really close to the railway station, even when you bring your luggage, it was still easy to get there! The room was okay and has everything you need. The lobby also has convenient store.

Having stayed in so many hotels, this one must be on the list! The front desk greeted us warmly when we arrived, and the check-in was super fast. They also gave us warm tips on the surrounding places to visit. The room was spacious and bright, the bedding was soft, and it was super comfortable to sleep in. The bathroom was also clean and odorless. There were a lot of breakfast options, and the taste was great, which made me energetic for the whole day. The fitness facilities were new, and it was super relaxing after swimming. The location is excellent, and it is convenient to go anywhere. The staff is on call and the service is thoughtful. It is very cost-effective, and I will stay here next time I come here!

This stay was fantastic! The hotel is just a few hundred meters from Xia Nanguan Street and Daxin Street Night Market, making it incredibly convenient for shopping and dining. The room was fully equipped and spotless, and the common areas were especially cozy. Blackout curtains and adjustable lighting were provided. Cleanliness was impeccable; even the toilet was spotless. The mattress was exceptionally comfortable. Definitely a five-star review! [Strong][Strong][Strong]

The staff at this hostel is very kind hearted and welcoming — we even received a free room upgrade, which was such a lovely surprise! The interior is cozy and the location is also great, with a nearby bus stop, multiple restaurants and a supermarket.

The hotel is in a good location, with the Daxin Street Night Market just 500 to 600 meters away. It is very convenient for eating, shopping and taking a bus. The only inconvenience is that parking is a bit far away, so you have to park across the street. The parking lot security guard is very responsible and enthusiastic.

Pro points - The beds are soft and comfy, good showers with very hot water. Rooms were clean. The buses from outside connect well to the Muslim area of the city and the restaurants nearby are nice. Staff are friendly. Bad points - We booked a non smoking room, all the rooms available were infact non smoking and yet the whole place absolutely stank of cigarettes. We moved rooms because after dinner we came back to a haze of smoke in the room, everyone must be smoking. I live in China, I realise this isn't uncommon, but in that case don't advertise non smoking rooms.

Literally minutes away from the railway station and the main bus terminal. Room is spacious with lots of storage space. Hot shower works well. Wifi is average speed at around 10mbps (slower when using VPN). Plenty of eateries nearby. Buffet breakfast was ok and filling with decent choices. Only issues are the elevators being super slow and found some hairs in the room (cleanliness issue).
