Mogao Hotel

Dunhuang


With its central location near restaurants and shops, this five-floor place is one of the better options. Breakfast is not included, but rooms are comfy, if somewhat straightforward. Staff are helpful, though not much English is spoken. In-room wi-fi is independent for each room and is good. The hotel has a lift.
