Your ideal base depends on your travel style: immerse yourself in the timeless desert or dive into vibrant city life.

For a truly majestic experience, stay near the Mingsha Mountain scenic area. This is the realm of luxurious desert resorts where your window frames the endless sands. Enjoy star-gazing at The Silk Road Dunhuang Hotel, marvel at Han-Tang dynasty architecture at the Dunhuang International Hotel or watch a legendary sunset from the Moonview Terrace at Dunhuang Huaxia International Hotel.

For convenience and local buzz, the Dunhuang City Center is your hub. It’s steps away from the famous Shazhou Night Market, diverse restaurants and key transport links. Four Points by Sheraton Dunhuang offers premium comfort at a major crossroads. For direct market access, Atour Hotel is located right at the night market's entrance, while Ji Hotel Dunhuang provides excellent value and is a short walk to the market and Dunhuang Museum.
