Jianguo HIDDEN Hotel (Ancient City of Kashgar Scenic Area)

We stayed at the 建国璞隐 hotel for two nights. The hotel is located in an excellent location and close to the entrance of the Eastern gate of the ancient city of Kashgar. It’s about five to ten minutes stroll. During our visit the central aircon system was set to heating (during October), and our room became very stuffy overnight and too warm. It was so hot, that we got woken up during the night, so we tried turning the heater off, but as the whole hotel didn’t have much ventilation that didn’t help much. We couldn’t sleep well during our stay. The other point was that we hung our room cards for ‘do not disturb’ on the door handle, but when we returned to our room, some people have clearly been inside. This made us feel somewhat uncomfortable.

This hotel was a total surprise, it was exceeding expectations. The front of the hotel was like a small shop on a roadside street, which was super easy to miss. But when you go in, it reveals a nice lobby. The room was clean, service was good. It has air conditioned heating as well. The location is also superb. Beside/behind are stalls that sell xinjiang nuts, which supposedly is something xinjiang is famous for. Just a 7 min walk and you reach the east gate of the ancient city, where the opening ceremony will be. Great place.

The front desk is extremely helpful and courteous, especially the manager.  Location is perfect with close access to the Ancient City, restaurants and shops, and the theatre.  The hotel is gorgeous especially our room.  The room is huge, clean, comfortable beds, comfortable toilet and large shower.  The included breakfast is served in a wonderful space; large variety of food to choose from including won ton soup, udon noodles, bao, veggies, chow mein, boiled and fried eggs, sausages, cereal, toast, roasted yams and cob corn.  I give them 5 out of 5 stars.
