 | Green Tree Inn - 格林豪泰酒店 295号 Xinhua South Rd Tianshan, Urumqi+86 991 235 5998 Price: $$Chinese Pronunciation: gélín háotài jiǔdiàn My Thoughts on the Green Tree Inn: This hotel is your typical 3-star Chinese hotel that offers the necessities without going overboard. This is a great place to stay if you want a jumping off point into the southern (more Uyghur) parts of Urumqi. From here it's not a far walk to the International Bazaar, the Uyghur neighborhoods and the snack street. | Hotel Rating: 6.7 / 10 Category: Mid-Range |
 | Tumaris (Tumalisi) Hotel - 突玛丽斯大饭店 618号 Xinhua South Rd Tianshan, Urumqi+86 991 852 5555 Price: $$$Chinese Pronunciation: tūmǎlìsī dàfàndiàn My Thoughts on the Tumaris Hotel: This beautiful 4-star hotel is located in the Uyghur heart of Urumqi. It's less than 100 meters away from the International Bazaar and all the major Uyghur shopping options. What's cool about this hotel, though, is the beautiful ethnic influences in the architecture and interior design. It's not a luxury hotel, but it's definitely an experience that you'll enjoy. | Hotel Rating: 6.9 / 10 Category: Mid-Range |
 | Super 8 Hotel - 速8酒店 Multiple locations available; check their website+86 991 559 0666 Price: $$Chinese Pronunciation: sùbā jiŭdiàn My Thoughts on the Super 8: The great thing about the Super 8 is the price (which is quite cheap) and the fact that they have multiple locations across the city. My favorite is the one in the center of town near the bar street, but there is also one further north and further south. Check their website (see above) or just look for "Super 8" on Google Maps. They seem to be everywhere. | Hotel Rating: 6.4 / 10 Category: Budget |
