Atour Hotel (Tianshui South High-speed Railway Station Shengda Plaza)

What a gem! Great rooms, great staff, great WiFi and great breakfast. What more can you want? We had it. A free upgrade. A special thanks to Lei Ailin for helping us.

Excellent location, 5 min taxi distance of Tianshuinan train station. Hotel staff, in particular the front desk gentleman was very helpful with planning our trip to Maijishan Grottoes. Room has Philips tv so we could connect our laptop with a HDMI cable and watch western movie. If you visit Maijishan, the taxi to the visitor center is ¥40, sometimes fixed fee ¥60, no more. It is 30 minutes from the hotel. At the visitor center you purchase tickets. We preordered them with the help of the front desk but it turned out that was not needed, there are enough tickets out of mayor high season. From the visitor center you take the bus to the grottoes. If you have time, purchase special tickets for private entrance to some of the more special grottoes. The regular visit takes appr 2 hours. The hotel has a washing area, very convenient and an excellent breakfast.

Friendly staff. Big comfortable room. Right in town. Bus to Maijishan next door.

Hotel is well located, easy access to maijishan as well as fuxi attractions. The staff we encountered 谢小姐& 董小姐are both friendly and helpful. They even help us with our laundry although it was late at night. The security guard we met was also very helpful and a jovial guy. Recommended stay.

Very good hotel, clean and well maintained.

Facility is fairly new and advertised as the only none smoking hotel in the area so I booked it. However I smelled cigarettes my first night through the air vents. Unfortunately there doesn’t seem to be much enforcement around the policy. The shower head was a bit stuck with clogged pores so the water will spray outwards a bit but for a small city in gansu this is probably the best you’ll be able to get per hotel standard.
