JJ Sun Hotel

Lanzhou


Swathed in highly buffed marble, this four-star choice has well-groomed, spacious and affordable rooms. There’s a pleasant wood-panelled western restaurant on the 2nd floor and a Chinese restaurant on the floor above. The location right across from the airport shuttle bus stop is handy. Discounts of 40% are usual; without breakfast, the price comes down another ¥30.
