Urumqi Belle Hotel (Hotan 2nd Street Jingyi Road Branch)

Walking to famous market Hotian. Where you can shop all your food stuff like red dates, nuts, clothes. Delicious breakfast. Free foot spa and beautiful library for photos shoot.

Fantastic hotel stay! Wonderful service and convenient location, was here for 6 days 5 nights to explore Urumqi.  前台的小李服务很棒！Xiao Li at the front desk was super helpful to help check us in early at 8am and she was very friendly. She also suggested the restaurants on the right side of the street after going out the hotel cause we were hungry 韩姐每天 帮我们 带泡脚来房间! 也很棒的服务！ Every night we asked for the free foot soak and they would bring to our room and prepare for us. Great to end the night after a cold day.  There is also always hot tea the lobby and also some free coffee vouchers to drink specialty coffee (try the pumpkin latte) at the restaurant since they don’t provide coffee in the room.  Location is convenient as we had to DiDi around. Around 10-15 mins to the Grand Bazaar.  Would recommend to go to Heavenly Lake 天山天池, take a DiDi to the tourist entrance and buy a ticket for another bus which is 40 minutes (sit on right side of bus going up and down for good views).  Another place worth visiting is 南山牧场 Nanshan pasture. We went in Nov so it’s cold to ride horses (30 mins to waterfall and 30 mins back). Still worth the experience although it’s freezing, or can take a little shuttle bus up to the waterfall. During summer many locals go for holidays and stay there for horse racing etc, so I would definitely visit in summer again.  The area near the hotel itself is also good to walk around because after exiting the hotel and turning right, cross two traffic lights and there is a wholesale area for dried fruits. Many stores selling cheap raisins etc. quality and price is much better than Bazaar or other stores!  Also there is a restaurant for Xinjiang food right next to the Hotel with many 羊肉烧烤 Lamb skewers. Very good food, worth trying for dinner at least once. May look dark and quiet from the outside, but inside is beautiful and actually pretty big with many customers.  Initially was considering between Belle Hotel (百丽) and Atour as I came with my parents. In the end my friends stayed at Atour and came over to visit, said this hotel was so much in terms of facilities and the service. I will be back for sure!

Loved this hotel! Great location, beautiful rooms. They even got the bidet for the toilets. If you are traveling for a long trip like I was, the laundry room was a huge plus. I would highly recommend this hotel :)
