“A quaint perfect accommodation near Echoing Mountain, Dunhuang”
The hotel sits close to Mingsha Shan, and the owner personally drove us to the site and offered to pick us up again. We walked back through shops and local restaurants for 20 minutes. The ticket we bought was a 3‑day pass, so we returned early the next morning. By car it’s very close to the station and Mogao Caves—about one sterling pound each way! For just over 1 sterling pound we could take a taxi to the night market in the city center. The location was great. The owner also arranged a self‑guided trip to Yadang and other spots, and helped us plan the rest of our itinerary from Dunhuang to Xining, which was very helpful and friendly. The staff were courteous and even did our laundry. The room was spacious with modern facilities and the bed was very comfortable. Overall, it was an ultra‑wonderful stay and I would highly recommend it. On the downside, new hotels are opening nearby; some travelers might prefer a more immaculate, touristy area, but we liked the comfortable, village‑feel atmosphere and there was no construction noise.
