Qinghai Guide Hot Spring Hotel

Qinghai


The hotel is starting to show its age, but this is a decent choice for foreigners, with clean rooms, a heated pool (¥50 per use), a spa and pleasant garden grounds. There are no hot springs per se on-site; instead, the hotel claims to have piped water from the springs into its pool and taps. Located 1km west of the bus station.
