Hotels With Pools in Xinjiang, China

The environment is absolutely fantastic! It's a riverside campsite, and you can tell it's been thoughtfully designed, with clever touches everywhere. We unfortunately spent too much time at the attractions and arrived quite late. The campsite offers a bonfire, BBQ, and Uighur girls dancing. On the way to the river, there's also a splash pad for kids, so we really should have arrived earlier. The only minor thing is the gravel path at the entrance, which seems intentionally designed. You can contact the camp beforehand to have staff help with your luggage, as it's a bit difficult to drag suitcases yourself. Also, the soundproofing in the tents isn't the best, but that's to be expected when choosing a campsite. Overall, it's a great camp, and the breakfast selection is very rich. You can also request an oxygen machine.

I stayed in the intercontinental for one night and I wish I had more time here. The hotel is new and decorated in a sleek yet exotic fashion. The room is very spacious, with a comfy king sized bed and choices for pillows. Amenities wise, the room is equipped with the usual Blanche line of personal care products (however the hair brush is still quite rubbish...). The view from the room is superb, overlooking the yili river and the small apple lake with the mountains in the background. The executive lounge is dainty and the cocktail hours buffet was delicious (though doesn't have a huge alcoholic choices like some other executive lounges). Sitting in the lounge and watching the sunset over the river was a fantastic experience. The location of the hotel is a bit remote but it is perfect for someone wants to wander around the yili river park and/or do a nice long and peaceful run/bike ride. Gym is small but meets the basic needs (has dumbbells, cross trainer and treadmill but no bar bells or rack). The swimming pool looks fancy and big, makes it ideal for leisure and training. Lastly, and most importantly, for my stay I truly appreciated the hard working staff here. They have made my already wonderful stay perfect. A big shout out to the concierge team, especially 来存智 Leonard, the concierge supervisor, they have gone out of their way to help me. I wanted to visit some ethnic group bar at mid night and given the distances and lack of taxis, Leonard, together with his team, helped me get to the right place and Leonard personally drove me back from the bar at 3am. I was able to have a great night thanks to him. Upon checking out, I was also given a nice souvenir to mark a perfect stay (unfortunately I left it on the taxi due to rushing!!! To whoever is the next lucky passenger to pick it up: I am jealous!).

I had an excellent stay at this hotel and was very satisfied with the overall experience. The hotel’s environment, facilities, service, and cleanliness were all excellent. The room was very clean, comfortable, and well equipped. Complimentary beverages were provided in the fridge, along with plenty of bottled water. The room and the bathroom were very well equipped, including a high-quality Dyson hairdryer. I had requested a room on a high floor, and the hotel made sure to accommodate my request, which I really appreciated. The check-in and check-out processes were both excellent, smooth, and efficient. The staff throughout the hotel were very helpful, considerate, and professional. I would especially like to thank the Guest Relationship Manager, Refat, who provided excellent service during my stay. He was very considerate and made sure everything went well. Thank you, Refat, for your kindness and excellent service. I would also like to mention Cathy, who left a very good impression on me. Her service was attentive and thoughtful, and she patiently answered all of my questions. She was extremely helpful and reliable throughout my stay. The location of the hotel is great, especially as it was close to the places I wanted to visit. Overall, I had a wonderful experience and felt very well taken care of. I would happily choose this hotel again for my next stay and would definitely recommend it.

The room was spacious with excellent amenities, and the late-night snack was a pleasant surprise. The view from the window was great. On the day we left, the dust had cleared, revealing the distant mountains, which was a lucky sight. However, the service could be improved. No one offered to help with our luggage when we got out of the car; there was no staff in the specialty store on the first floor. We stayed for two nights, and when the room was cleaned on the second day, the staff took away our toilet seat cover and didn't replace it with a new one 😂. They also put the duvet insert we had removed (because it was warm) back on the bed 😂.

This hotel truly deserves its spot as one of the top 50 scenic hotels in the country! Shuiyunshan Wild Luxury is definitely the ultimate family-friendly resort in Xinjiang, and the entire experience was impeccable. Upon check-in, we were greeted with a lovely welcome gift of fresh fruit and nuts. The views and ambiance were absolutely stunning. In the afternoon, we enjoyed afternoon tea in the outdoor sunlit seating area, with panoramic views of snow-capped mountains and spruce trees – incredibly therapeutic. What truly stood out was the exceptionally warm service from everyone. The staff were incredibly enthusiastic and attentive, and they even offered to wash our self-driving car for free. The outdoor activities were abundant and fun: we rode horses across the grasslands, fed adorable fluffy lambs, and saw lively marmots everywhere along the way. The kids were cheering non-stop throughout! And the three dogs – Oreo, Pipi, and Chocolate – were super cuddly and loved interacting with us. The evening bonfire party was full of atmosphere, with adults and children sitting around, laughing and chatting. The mountain wilderness romance was truly maximized. Facilities, scenery, service, and family-friendly experiences were all top-notch. It's our first choice for traveling with kids and has already made it onto our 'revisit' list!

A True Hidden Gem – The Best Stay of My Xinjiang Trip! Out of my entire journey across Xinjiang, this homestay was by far the most memorable and heartwarming experience. The moment I stepped into the beautifully decorated home, with its stunning blue hues, traditional Uyghur details, and peaceful courtyard covered by a canopy of vines, I instantly felt at ease. It truly felt like home. What made it even more special was the incredible hospitality. The owner was exceptionally friendly, always ready with a warm smile and willing to help with anything I needed—whether it was sharing local tips, helping with transportation, or simply chatting over tea. Their kindness made me feel not just like a guest, but like part of the family. The attention to detail in every corner, the peaceful swing in the courtyard, and the cozy atmosphere created the perfect setting to relax after a day of exploring. I can’t recommend this place enough—if you’re traveling through Xinjiang and want to experience genuine warmth and culture, this is the place to be.

Our last stop in Xinjiang! After experiencing the hotels in Narati and the homestays in Turpan, it was a completely different feeling to be back in a big city. We pretty much decided on this hotel last minute, and it was a blind booking that turned out to be a great success! The hotel is right next to Meimei Shopping Mall, which made dining incredibly convenient. So convenient, in fact, that we didn't even feel the need to brave the crowds at the International Grand Bazaar, a must-visit for tourists! The breakfast was also very generous, with fresh squeezed juice, a wide variety of fruits, and the à la carte menu was delicious too!

Overall, I was very satisfied with my stay. The hotel's decor is tasteful and aesthetically pleasing, and the public area on the third floor is perfect for photos. We booked a poolside room, which had an amazing vibe, though the lack of privacy meant we had to keep the curtains drawn most of the time, which was a bit of a shame. The room's amenities were also a highlight for me. It came with a Marshall speaker, an aroma diffuser, a Dyson hairdryer, complimentary welcome fruits, and free yogurt and Perrier in the fridge, all of which showed great thoughtfulness. I particularly want to commend the butler service – it was incredibly attentive and thorough! They helped us with laundry, drying and returning our clothes, and assisted with our luggage when we checked out. The biggest bonus was their help in booking a horseback riding excursion. They not only found a wonderful, authentic local stable but also personally escorted us to the horses, making for a fantastic riding experience. Additionally, the breakfast and afternoon tea were excellent, and the coffee was delicious. Areas for improvement: The only significant letdown was the service from the front desk and restaurant staff. They seemed to lack enthusiasm and proactivity, rarely smiling throughout our stay. They didn't even greet us when we passed them, giving off an aloof impression. This level of service doesn't match what one would expect for this price point. I hope management can provide more training for front-line staff; with such great amenities, excellent service would make this place unbeatable. Overall, I still highly recommend it.

A person drove to the grape ditch by himself, and chose Guanlan Mountain Puxi to spend a few days in a quiet time, which completely exceeded expectations! The homestay is hidden in the mountains and grape forests, the environment is quiet and healing, away from the hustle and bustle of the city. The rooms are clean and tidy, the bedding is comfortable and the facilities are complete. The boss and staff are very friendly and caring, and there are some concerns about traveling alone, but here they are particularly at ease. In my free time, I blow the hair in the yard and look at the mountains and streams, and the whole person relaxes. It is very suitable for a person to relax. Next time you come to Turpan, you will definitely come back to stay. It is highly recommended to friends who travel alone!

This guesthouse in Narati was the best accommodation we had during our entire Xinjiang trip. The aesthetic appeal of both the exterior and interior design is evident, with attention to detail truly standing out. I particularly loved the green plant views from our room. The comfort level was excellent too; the bedding was soft, and the latex pillows were absolutely amazing. We loved them so much that we bought the same kind when we checked out. They didn't skimp on amenities either: a Dyson hairdryer, L'Occitane toiletries, a coffee machine, a magnifying mirror, a washing machine, and more. What truly impressed us the most was the service. From the manager to every staff member, everyone genuinely cared about the guests' experience. In the evening, when we ordered food, they even sent up some small pastries, and the next morning, they treated us to coffee with breakfast, which was a really thoughtful touch. Due to a change in our itinerary, we had to shorten our two-night stay to one, and the guesthouse was incredibly accommodating, kindly waiving the fee for the second night. Overall, it was a comfortable, considerate, and high-quality experience. It's not one of those mass-produced 'influencer' guesthouses; they genuinely put their heart into their service.
