Shaolin Hotel

Henan


Enthusiastic staff, a good location and easy discounts make this midrange hotel a half-decent choice. Rooms are tidy enough but don't expect them to be spotless.

Look for the white building on the corner of Guan Shi Jie (opposite the night market) with the yellow-and-red sign. It's a ¥7 taxi ride from the bus station. Discounts of ¥100 available.
