Hotels with Breakfast in Tekes County

The guesthouse itself boasts beautiful scenery; sitting at the entrance and daydreaming was very relaxing. The staff were all very warm and friendly, providing a hearty and delicious breakfast, and they even cut us cantaloupe and watermelon. The rooms weren't large, but they had everything we needed, and the cleanliness was quite good. Mountain accommodations certainly can't compare to those in the city, but for the price, it's excellent. The traditional wooden cabins weren't very soundproof, but with the heating on, it was very cozy, and I slept soundly after a long day. Qiongkushitai is definitely worth a visit!

If Tekes Bagua City hides the most poetic retreat in the Western Regions, it must be ”Xichu Guli Homestay.” It's more than just a place to stay; it blends the winds of the Ili River Valley, the memories of Kazakh yurts, and the romance of the ancient Silk Road into its courtyards and windows. The homestay boasts a prime location right by the roadside. The rooms are spacious, and the owner even upgraded us for free. Pushing open the wooden door reveals a courtyard bursting with flowers, hand-carved wooden pillars entwined with grapevines, and Kazakh embroidery patterns on the brick walls—grassland totems meticulously embroidered by artisans. There's no excessive decoration, yet every detail reveals thoughtful touches—an old wooden table restored by a carpenter, a wool felt mat handmade by a herdsman, and Ili pottery displayed on the windowsill—each piece carries the warmth of ”home,” making you feel like you've stepped into the home of an old friend from the Western Regions. The guest rooms strike a perfect balance between comfort and charm. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame panoramic views of the Bagua City streetscape or distant green mountains, while the bedding is made of soft cotton and linen with simple ethnic geometric patterns. The bathroom features a thermostatic shower, and even the toiletries are local herbal brands. In the morning, sunlight filters through the sheer curtains onto the floor, and birdsong fills the courtyard. For a moment, you forget you're in a guesthouse, or perhaps in a dreamlike Western Region. The guesthouse is pet-friendly, but the only drawback is the lack of its own parking lot; you have to park on the street. However, I would definitely choose this place again next time I visit Bagua City.

The hotel is very close to the Kalajun entrance, about a 5-kilometer drive. Follow the navigation; the gravel road is narrow but don't hesitate. The moment you see the room, all your fatigue will melt away. The shower room and separate wet/dry bathroom are clean and hygienic, completely free from the inconveniences of staying in a tent camp. Lying on the bed, pull open the 360-degree curtains, and the surrounding scenery fills your view. Open the electric curtain on the dome, and you can see the sky. If you still have energy, before sunset, go for a one or two-hour horseback ride to enjoy the grassland sunset—it's incredibly pleasant. The hotel's service is very thoughtful and meticulous, and it has its own restaurant where you can order dinner, which tastes pretty good. Breakfast is a buffet and quite rich. The highlight, though, is the starry sky after dusk, which truly cures everything. To avoid light pollution, the hotel thoughtfully turns off the ambient lights. In the morning, open the curtains and you can watch the sunrise. This is a hotel that constantly provides pleasant surprises.

The guesthouse was very easy to find; a long mural on the signboard was quite eye-catching. I had a pleasant chat with the owner upon arrival. The owner was from Urumqi, and we had a very pleasant conversation; he was also very welcoming. I felt right at home. Breakfast was prepared by the owner's family, and it was delicious and reassuring to eat.

We are newcomers to Northern Xinjiang for the first time. I originally booked this B&B because I was going to Kalajun Grassland (top 3 scenery in Ili). Unexpectedly, I accidentally bumped into Qiongkush Terrace, which ranks top 2 in Ili scenery. This B&B is on the top of a mountain. It has an excellent location. The scenery outside the window is so beautiful. Please see the accompanying picture, no photoshop. You are very close to the stars at night, and you can watch the sun rise from Tianshan Mountain in the morning! And there is also this so-called internet celebrity swing (we didn’t know about it until we arrived). It is estimated that many people go to the swing in the back mountain because of a few big Vs, but the real thing is here! The house is clean and warm. The boss is very enthusiastic and down-to-earth. To get here, you need to walk a mountainous road with many twists and turns. Remember to fill up your tank before going up the mountain. This is what the boss told us. So we arrived very late, and the boss was waiting all the time and cooked delicious food for us! The biggest surprise was going to the Wusun Ancient Trail! ! We gave up on Karajun directly. The rainforest on the Wusun Ancient Trail is simply an instant kill for Kalajun. No tickets yet. It is recommended to enter on horseback, but you can of course go on foot. If you are riding a horse, it is recommended to find a local kid friend. They will not only tell you a lot of local life stories. They also take various photos for you, which is of great emotional value!

Advantages: The room was decorated with a great atmosphere, and the guesthouse was perfect for taking photos; it's clear that some thought was put into the design. There's even a swing on the small hillside, so you don't have to go to crowded Instagrammable spots. The guesthouse was also well soundproofed, with almost no noise. Areas for improvement: 1. No one proactively cleaned the room for two consecutive nights, including removing trash, possibly due to staff shortages. 2. There were some unwashed stains on the sheets, so they didn't look very clean. 3. There was no bottled water in the room; the owner provided two bottles later, but they weren't replenished the next day. 4. On the last day, we planned to eat at the restaurant, but were only informed at the last minute that the chef was unavailable. The breakfast was also mediocre; frankly, even for men, it wasn't very filling. Since it's priced like a five-star hotel, it's recommended to try to provide five-star service, such as providing more bottles of water. Clean the rooms regularly, or inform guests in advance to lower their expectations. After all, the price isn't much different from other five-star hotels I've stayed in. Also, the window view was beautiful, but the windows need cleaning.

Choosing Wuyin Zhidi for our trip to Kalajun was absolutely the right decision! The hotel is super close to the East Gate of Kalajun Scenic Area, just a ten-minute drive. Our butler, Xiao Ba, wasn't just handsome, but also incredibly thoughtful and attentive. He was always responsive to our needs and gave us great tips on the best places to visit and the most beautiful scenic spots – he was really, really nice! As for the hotel room, it was very clean, spacious, and had an amazing view. They even treated us to a wonderful, extensive afternoon tea with incredibly sweet fruit. This place is definitely worth it! Highly, highly recommend!!!

My stay at Qiongkushitai Stargazing had its pros and cons. On the positive side, the room's bed was equipped with heating, which was incredibly useful given the cold local weather. I was able to sleep quite comfortably at night and get some good rest. The guesthouse also had many adorable and lively small animals, including lambs, bunnies, and chickens. However, there were a few issues with the bathroom facilities. Firstly, the bathroom temperature was quite low, lacking sufficient heating, making showers feel very cold. Secondly, the hot water supply was inconsistent, fluctuating between hot and cold, making it difficult to adjust to a comfortable temperature. In the mornings, hot water was almost unusable, causing significant inconvenience for washing. Additionally, the bathroom drainage system needs improvement. The drain was slow, leading to severe water accumulation during showers, which affected the user experience and posed a potential safety hazard. Overall, the guesthouse service was excellent. They provided afternoon tea and a sweet soup before bed. The guesthouse manager also promptly came to help resolve the bathroom issues.

The room has huge floor-to-ceiling windows with amazing views (p1). Waking up in the morning and opening the curtains reveals snow-capped mountains, forests, meadows, and fluffy white-muzzled calves grazing peacefully. The heating is excellent, hot water is plentiful, and the internet speed is fast. The bed is also very clean and comfortable. Even staying in the room is wonderful; you can relax on the chair by the door and watch the river and stars. And let me praise the service here! Super attentive, warm, and considerate, with a quick response time. They put a lot of effort into making everyone's stay and experience as smooth as possible. They provide beautiful afternoon tea by the river, lead horseback riding trips to the ranch, and even help find fresh milk – a truly exceptional experience. The lamb at Pin Ye Ju is delicious, and the afternoon tea included milk tea, which dairy lovers will love. The café is also very photogenic. The location is near the starting point of the Wusun Ancient Road and very close to the village, making it convenient for hiking or just strolling around. Qiongkushitai in autumn is still incredibly beautiful, with golden trees and white snow. A little further up the mountain, the landscape turns green again, creating a rich and varied beauty that's truly breathtaking. I could never get enough of it! I'll definitely come back!

Miss Mira at the front desk has a good service attitude. We came here in the middle of the night. She also smiled. The attitude is really a plus. After the tiger is opened, this is the most comfortable time.
