Pet Friendly Hotels in Yan'an

Thanks again to Sister Lian for your sincere hospitality. There were 9 people in our family, including 4 elders and me, who drove from Xi'an to Yulin and booked 5 cave-dwelling double rooms at Sister Lian's house. Unexpectedly, the weather was not good. After arriving at Ganquan, we found that there was a level 7 gale, it was cloudy and rainy, and the temperature dropped to 10 degrees. We suddenly decided to cancel our plan to visit the Grand Canyon that day and drive directly to our next stop, Yan'an. At this time, we had already given up the prepaid deposit (after all, Ctrip indicated that it was non-cancellable, and Lian Jie also sent a WeChat message at noon saying that she had already bought the dishes we had reserved for dinner). Unexpectedly, after learning that we wanted to cancel the reservation, Sister Lian immediately refunded the deposit in full without saying a word; when I was still hesitating whether to receive the refund, Sister Lian called me three times in a row to ”threaten me” that she would continue to harass me until I received the refund. In the end, our whole family decided to stay one night at Sister Lian’s house on the way back to Xi’an. Three days later, on a sunny afternoon, we returned to Ganquan again. When we drove into a slightly barren village and walked into the narrow path leading to her yard, the sanitary conditions and environment of this homestay still made me somewhat uneasy. But when I saw Sister Lian’s brilliant smile and walked into the cave she had carefully prepared, all my worries disappeared in an instant. It is no exaggeration to say that this is the cleanest homestay I have ever seen. The decoration is simple, with two 2-meter beds, clean bedding/bath towels, empty suite, bathroom heater and water heater. What I find most incredible is the marble floor of the B&B. On this loess plateau with flying sand, it can be cleaned spotlessly by Sister Lian (cleaner than the floor of my home in Shanghai). For dinner, we enjoyed 8 dishes and 1 soup specially prepared by Sister Lian according to our taste requirements, plus the big rooster she raised. The whole family was very satisfied with the taste. After dinner, we sat together in Sister Lian’s yard, drinking wine and chatting with Sister Lian about family matters (this night was definitely the happiest night of our trip). The cave was very quiet at night, and we didn’t hear the crowing of the big rooster raised by Sister Lian in the morning (which made us very puzzled). Lian Jie’s family has a total of 6 cave dwellings, one of which is for her own use. It is located in a small village 2 kilometers behind the entrance of Ganquan Grand Canyon Scenic Area. This location is particularly inconspicuous, because most tourists will definitely choose the larger Xia Siwan County 2/3 kilometers before the scenic area or some cave homestays at the entrance of the scenic area. If you want to find a relatively quiet and tidy small homestay and experience the sincerity, simplicity and enthusiasm of the rural people in northern Shaanxi, then Lianjie is definitely your best choice.

It's right next to the Ganquan Grand Canyon bus stop, extremely close. The main gate faces the boarding area, and there's a large courtyard for convenient parking. Restaurants aren't very convenient nearby; you'll have to go to town to eat. They do have a restaurant during peak season, but when we went it was off-season, though they still served breakfast. The rooms are spacious, with a charming cave dwelling style, and they even had lots of succulents. The landlady was incredibly welcoming! The next day, after we finished exploring the Grand Canyon, we came back to pick up our car. The sheets and blankets from the previous night had already been washed and dried – very clean!

We went to Ganquan Canyon during the autumn holidays. We decided to stay near the entrance. The hospitality of the owners was fantastic. Despite the language barrier, we were able to understand each other easily. They provided entrance tickets on our behalf while we enjoyed an excellent, wholesome breakfast of vegetables from the garden. The room is big and clean. Highly recommended!

The hotel is generally good, very close to the scenic spot, about ten minutes walk to the visitor center. The hotel parking lot is also big enough and parking is convenient. Going to the scenic spot in the morning, the boss also suggested to walk there, or spend ten yuan more parking fees, very intimate. It was ten o'clock on the night of the stay, and the boss also cut the watermelon specially, which was very sweet. Hot water is also sufficient and easy to wash. The hotel has its own breakfast, the price is not expensive, no need to go outside to eat. After the tour, I went back to pick up the car. The boss also sent a bag of local specialty sour dates. It can be dried and brewed. It is very enthusiastic. The boss is an old couple and the people are very kind. The price of the hotel next door is a bit expensive and not recommended. If you come to Shaanxi to play Hukou Waterfall, I highly recommend this homestay, affordable and good service.

Inside the scenic area, it is very lively at night, the room is very quiet and clean! Suitable for taking photos and checking in! The breakfast is also rich. And the price is not high, it is very cost-effective to use the points deduction. It is also very easy to find after getting off the highway, and it is very close. The parking lot is on the underground floor, and you can take the elevator directly upstairs. There are a lot of luggage, and the girl at the front desk came down to pick it up. The service is pretty good! One night in Yan'an, very satisfied!

The guesthouse is only about 200 meters from the scenic area entrance. The owner is said to be a scenic area ambassador, so you can get a discount on tickets purchased through him. The food at this guesthouse is delicious, especially their lamb (the owner's mother has been cooking lamb for 41 years! [Thumbs up]). It used to be called ”Lao Dang's Farmhouse Cuisine.” The guesthouse offers both cave-style rooms and standard rooms. Currently, the cave-style rooms don't have air conditioning, but it doesn't seem to matter much, as the temperature difference between day and night is quite significant, and it's not cold at night. The guesthouse has a large courtyard (I really like guesthouses with courtyards), parking is very convenient, and a self-service car wash is available.

During the summer vacation, I took my parents and children to experience Yan'an cave caves. I chose Swallow Flower House B&B on Trip.com . When I arrived at the B&B, it was too unexpected. The B&B was so beautiful. The garden was in different shapes. The boss and his wife were also very good. We arrived late because of some things and prepared a table of delicious food for us. The portion and taste are very good. When we left, we made a route recommendation for us to Yan'an. I really appreciate it. I will definitely go to Yan'an next time I have the opportunity to experience it.

Facilities: Standard hotel standard Hygienic: the whole is very clean and tidy Environment: Very satisfied with staying for one night. Although the hotel is in the town facing the street, it is very quiet after 10 o'clock in the evening and can sleep beautifully. There are two breakfast shops in the town, complete variety, clean and cheap Service: The boss and his wife are warm, kind and generous, trustworthy In short, our whole family was very satisfied with this stay.

I was trapped in Yan'an due to heavy snow, but fortunately Hua Ting Hotel calmed my mood. The location of the hotel is very convenient, the room is clean and comfortable, the shower water is large and comfortable, the air conditioning and heating in winter are also very good, and the attitude of the entire hotel staff is particularly good, giving people a simple and real feeling. The hotel's catering is also very good. Although the breakfast buffet is not open due to the small number of residents, a delicate and large breakfast is prepared and delivered directly to the room at 8 o'clock in the morning👍👍👍. Very good living experience, I will stay here again next time I come to Yan'an.

quick check in and very fiendly front desk lady. very clean room, window towards the street. shower head wasnt cleaned, only little water came out. location is convenient, will come again
