Hotéis com bar em Inner Mongolia, China

We stayed at Lotus Hotel for two nights and overall had a very enjoyable experience. The biggest highlight is definitely the location. The hotel is set in the middle of the desert, making it a unique and memorable destination. Reaching the resort is part of the adventure: you first take a cable car, then transfer to a jeep shuttle that brings you directly to the hotel. The hotel staff can transport your luggage for you, although it may take up to two hours before it arrives in your room. The reception area is warm and welcoming. The staff explain how the resort is organized and help guests understand the various facilities. Since the property is very large, transportation within the resort is well organized. The guest rooms are spread across different rings, and in the lower ring you can call a small train that picks you up and takes you directly to your room, which is very convenient given the long walking distances. The same service is available when returning. The hotel offers plenty of facilities for both adults and children. Near the entrance there is a buffet area, while the ground floor features several recreational spaces, including an ice-skating rink, game rooms with billiards, archery, and other activities. Outside, there is a large shaded sand play area for children with staff members available to supervise and entertain them. Throughout the resort there are also shuttle trains that can pick you up if you prefer not to walk. In the evening there are live entertainment shows, and the atmosphere is wonderful. The main dining hall is spacious, the food is good, and everything is included. There is also a hot pot restaurant on the first floor if you want an alternative dining experience. One of the most beautiful parts of the stay is the outdoor entertainment park at night. Guests walk through the desert on a beautifully illuminated wooden walkway while enjoying performances, shows, balloons, and activities for children. The evening temperatures are very pleasant, especially during summer, making it a fantastic experience. The exterior entertainment park includes many complimentary activities, such as VIP camel riding, guided off-road rides, zip lines, and a water park. Transportation between the hotel and the park is free and very efficient, with buses, themed boats, small trains, and other fun vehicles. You can easily spend one or even two days here. Most of the main activities can be experienced in one day, but there is enough to keep you entertained longer. The staff are always friendly and eager to help, and there are many employees throughout the resort. However, most of them are very young and sometimes lack experience, resulting in avoidable mistakes. Additional training would certainly improve the overall service. Another significant drawback is the language barrier. Very few staff members speak English, and during our two-night stay we found only one person who could communicate sufficiently. The room itself is simple and quite small, but that's not really the focus of this type of resort since you'll spend most of your time enjoying the activities outside. If you're looking to relax in your room, this may not be the ideal place. The bathroom definitely needs renovation. The shower was disappointing, and when we entered the room there was an unpleasant pee smell that suggested cleaning standards could be improved. Overall, the room was acceptable, but for the price I expected better housekeeping and maintenance. Despite these shortcomings, the incredible location, the wide variety of activities, and the overall experience make Lotus Hotel a destination worth visiting. I would definitely come back, probably for one night rather than two, simply because most attractions can be enjoyed in a full day. Overall, I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a unique desert resort experience.

This hotel is definitely worth staying at. The front desk staff are professional, warm, and attentive. The rooms are large, clean, and tidy with expansive views where you can see the Chilechuan Grassland and horse racing. You can enjoy the grassland until 8 or 9 PM, and the night view is beautiful. The 'Eternal Horse Song' show is just a three-minute walk away. Breakfast includes local specialties like lamb offal soup and milk tea. The Chilechuan Grassland is right downstairs, making it perfect for photos. The hotel even provided welcome fruit, and watching the horse racing from the balcony was absolutely fantastic!

Here's the updated review with that additional context: Full Version We had a wonderful stay, largely thanks to one of the owners who went out of their way to organize activities for us and made our experience truly memorable. The dinner and show were fantastic—featuring original-style Mongolian traditional dance and singing that felt authentic and captivating. Both lunch and dinner were excellent, and we were especially impressed by the Lamb Bao served at breakfast. Overall, the service and warmth from the people were genuinely good. That said, all the costs were quite expensive compared to what I'm used to after living and traveling in China for more than 10 years. I would recommend the horse riding off the main area, as they suggest, but the Happy Ranch was not that fulfilling—most of the rides and activities there weren't worth the time or money. That's an external activity though, so no discredit to the hotel itself. While we didn't end up using the actual amenities, the hospitality and cultural performance alone made the visit worthwhile. Balanced Short Version (Google/TripAdvisor): Great experience thanks to one of the owners, who personally organized activities for us. The dinner and show were a highlight—original Mongolian traditional dance and singing that was unique and impressive. Food was excellent at all meals, especially the Lamb Bao at breakfast, and the staff were genuinely warm. Costs were quite high compared to what I'm used to after 10+ years in China. I recommend the horse riding off the main area as suggested, but the Happy Ranch activities weren't worth the time or money—though that's external, not the hotel's fault. Didn't use the actual hotel amenities, but the hospitality and performance were good.

I brought my family to Xilamuren Grassland this time and we stayed at the Saibei Inn. The inn is right on the grassland, so stepping out, you're greeted by endless plains. The view is incredibly open and the air is fresh. In the mornings and evenings, you can enjoy a cool breeze, which is really refreshing. The room was spotlessly clean, the bedding tidy, and all the basic amenities were provided, making for a comfortable stay. Both the owner and staff were very warm and genuine, always willing to help when needed. It's also very convenient for sightseeing around; horseback riding and other grassland activities are all nearby. You can even enjoy the grassland nightscape in the evening. We had a great experience with both the food and accommodation here. I highly recommend this place to anyone planning a trip to the grasslands.

I am a young Englishman on a 20 day solo self-drive road trip across northern Heilongjian and Inner Mongolia. After my stay in Hulun Buir, I decided to drive down to Arxan for 2 nights exploring. I booked this stay based off of the other foreign guests' positive experience. I arrived in the town late in the evening. The boss was waiting for me and was attentive and welcoming from the start. The room is very spacious and comfortable, and the temperature was just right. Everything is provided and replaced when needed. After hiking in the national park, I came back to the boss and his extended family making CNY preparations. Then I was invited to drink Chinese tea (Dian Hong) at their tea table. I was then welcomed to eat with the family, drink beer and eat until I was full. I was welcomed not just as a guest of theirs, but as a family friend. In mid-winter, Aershan/Arxan is a quiet and cold place. I came as part of a long journey taking my rented 4x4 Tank 300 through the snow and ice on routes apart of the Hulun Buir Snow and Ice Festival. My journey was peaceful, solemn and isolated. The hospitality and warm welcome was exactly what I needed after my long drive alone and it is a memory I will take home to the UK with me. I highly recommend this guesthouse, especially if you are travelling solo across this wilderness. Thank you brother. I look forward to returning in the near future with my partner, and when my mandarin is better.

There were a few frustrating issues with our stay here. First off, the property is in a neighborhood that is accessed through a guarded gate. Hotel instructions after booking said to reach out to them to inquire about car parking and accessibility. I e-mailed the hotel a week prior and didn't hear back. I e-mailed again 2 days before our stay and did not receive a response. That was already frustrating. Once we arrived at the guard gate on the day of the check-in, the guard ordered us to drive away. He had absolutely no interest in even looking at our reservation or helping. The least helpful person we have met in China so far, he just basically yelled at us. I ended up having to walk to the hotel, where a staff member had to phone the guard to eventually let us in. Overall, this was a totally wasted, frustrating hour. Once we got assigned a room, it was evident a large dog had stayed there for several days. The room smelled very bad, which even the staff member agreed with. So, we had to ask for a room change. The new room was ok - the bed was nice and soft, however it lacked in some cleanliness (toothpaste splashes on the bathroom mirror etc.). The staff was definitely nice and tried their best to rectify all the issues, however, we would probably choose another hotel in the future. Not the 4* experience one would hope for.

I'm so glad we booked our stay inside the Xiangshawan Desert Scenic Area! It made everything so incredibly easy. Each room came with 6 bottles of water, and the air conditioning was already on before we even arrived. Even though it's a yurt, the interior space is very large, and the private bathroom is super clean. The hotel's services were all excellent. The all-inclusive meals were not at all superficial; each meal featured local specialties like lamb offal soup, savory milk tea, and plenty of beef and lamb. The quality was on par with outside restaurants, and we all agreed their milk tea was the best we had during our entire trip. After a fun day exploring the two islands, returning to the hotel wasn't boring at all. In the evenings, there were disco parties, firework displays, and stargazing. Every event was well-organized and very entertaining. It truly lived up to its nickname, 'Desert Disney'! Definitely worth the trip!

Few of the amenities listed on the listing page are available. Maybe they were at some point in the past long ago, but this hotel is far from in its prime. There is no sauna. The ”bath center” where this was has been converted into a commercial spa for a business unrelated to the hotel. There is no night club. There is no ”gym” as shown in one of the pictures. I believe a lot of the pictures shown on the listing page are years if not decades old. There is no ”boutique”. There is one tiny convenience store on the first floor. The hotel has a restaurant on the second floor. I only used it for the free breakfast which was good. The hotel largely focuses on catering to business events. They have meeting spaces and a big ornate looking meeting space. For normal travellers, this hotel is very bare bones. Service was great. The staff are friendly and helpful. The laundry is not self service. You need to pay per article of clothing for someone to take it. The room itself lacked a minibar, functional air conditioning, or a functional safe. It was very spartan. Would I come here again? Not for the listed price. Without any of the advertised amenities, I can't imagine this is much better than cheaper hotels in the area.

The decoration of the hotel environment is particularly good, that is, it is not soundproof, the low-frequency sound of the air conditioner outside the air conditioner in the middle of the night is particularly obvious, and the corridor is not soundproof

Beautiful resort in the Xilamuren grasslands, with a mix of traditional yurts and unique modern-styled accommodations. I stayed in both types of accommodation and both were very comfortable. Full length windows offer views of the expansive grasslands in the day, while the yurts also have a unique skyroof design for stargazing on clearer nights. Breakfast was quite simple local fare, mainly porridge with sides like pickles and egg, very filling. Lunch and dinner is not inclusive but there is a large menu that you can order from. The resort also has its own bar! I believe it is open nightly during the peak season of July/August, and depending on guest volumes at other times. The boss Mr Da and his staff were so welcoming and kind. I travelled solo, and they added me on WeChat so that I could easily reach them if I had any questions or needs. Boss Da also very kindly took me to a few local sights and spots, since I did not have my own means of transport (感谢达老板!). Overall, I really enjoyed my stay at the resort. If I were to visit Xilamuren again, Xilamuren Grassland Mongolian Holy Land Resort would definitely be my accommodation of choice.
