My favorable impression of Lanzhou Hotel has increased at this moment! up! up!

🌟 Geographical location: Central business district, convenient transportation🚇

The hotel is located on Tianshui North Road, Chengguan District, close to Lanzhou Wanda Plaza, a 5-minute walk to Yantan Park and a 10-minute drive to Lanzhou Waterwheel Expo Park. Metro Line 1 Lanzhou University Station (1.5 km) and the airport bus stop (in front of the hotel) provide efficient travel options. There are many restaurants in the surrounding area, including chain brands in Wanda Shopping Mall as well as local halal beef noodle and barbecue restaurants. However, if you want to experience the Zhengning Road Night Market, you will need to take a car for about 15 minutes.

🛌 Room experience: more classic, less innovative🛋️

The hotel has 295 rooms, which are inspired by Dunhuang murals and Silk Road culture and decorated with warm-toned solid wood furniture and traditional patterns. The "Wanda Vista Bed" is paired with the "Wonderful Dream" sleep-aid series. The mattress is moderately soft and hard, and the bedding is skin-friendly and comfortable. The rooms on the executive floor are equipped with separate dressing rooms and bathtubs, but the area is not much different from that of ordinary rooms, and modern facilities such as smart toilets and electric curtains are missing. Some rooms are subject to noise interference due to proximity to construction areas (such as Wanda Phase 5 project). It is recommended to choose a room on a high floor or facing away from the construction site.

🍳 Dining highlights: Amazing breakfast, buffet with outstanding value for money🍜

The breakfast at the all-day restaurant "Meishihui" on the first floor is a benchmark in Lanzhou's hotel industry. You can choose the thickness of the freshly pulled beef noodles (chives are recommended), and it is served with 4 toppings such as braised pork and braised chicken. The taste is not inferior to that of the old street shops. The egg stall offers Benedict eggs and American-style scrambled eggs, while the baked goods’ butterfly puffs and Chinese dim sum are also quite distinctive. The upgraded dinner buffet includes more than 200 dishes, including sashimi, hot pot, flamed beef ribs and other highlights. The price per person is 164 yuan (original price 328 yuan), which is an outstanding value for money. The quality of the hot dishes during happy hour in the executive lounge is average, so it is recommended to go out and experience local cuisine.

🏋️ Facilities and services: Business-friendly, details to be optimized💡

The fitness center on the 5th floor is equipped with Technogym equipment and a 25-meter constant temperature swimming pool. The locker room has a steam room and a hot tub, which is suitable for relaxation after exercise. In terms of conference facilities, the 1,180-square-meter pillar-less banquet hall can accommodate thousands of people, and the LED display screen and one-stop conference butler service can meet business needs. In terms of service, the staff behaved professionally during large-scale events (such as the reception for the Provincial People's Congress), but during daily check-ins, there were problems such as insufficient proficiency in front desk business and reduced welcome gifts.
