I bragged to my friends that I spent 3 days at a nice hotel by the Yellow River.
The room was spacious and clean, and the service was good.
I was satisfied because there were many kinds of breakfast.
I used the bar after dinner and I was impressed by the kindness of the waitress.
However, I had no choice but to use a taxi to get out of town, so that was a shame.
But the staff call a taxi quickly
I didn't have any difficulties. Even if I went back to Lanzhou
I will be using the Crown Plaza Hotel.
The property overall was very nice. However, even if you request and receive a non-smoking room guests are permitted to smoke on your floor. There are ashtrays near the elevator that are used. The smoke smell will certainly leak into your room a bit.
We paid for the breakfast through our Expedia booking upfront. However, every morning at the breakfast I was the only one out of our large travel group of 31 (who are mainly of Chinese origin but not living in China) who got hassled every morning to pay. I couldn’t help, but wonder if it was because I am only part Chinese and don’t present as Asian to most. The last breakfast was quite embarrassing in the way that I was treated. But that said we had a really good experience with our room service person for dinner one night. Also, we had hot pot one evening in the hotel restaurant, which we enjoyed and were told we were going to be given a small discount for a reason I am not sure of.
I probably would not stay here again given the smoke smell, the distance from night markets, and the breakfast hassle every morning to double pay.
Lanzhou is the land of smokers and the hotel does little to control people who choose to smoke in the lobby, the elevators, the rooms. Great hotel but just can’t get away from the smoke.

Random pricing, bad shower
I booked on hotels.com at 756HKD per night vs trips.com offered 330RMB (half of the price I paid). Hot water in the shower didn’t work well. The hotel said it was because there were too many guests on the same floor… there was nobody at the main door helping you with taxi. Surprisingly bad experience
I've had the misfortune of having stayed here twice, once in 2015 and once in 2017. The ONLY reason I'd ever stay here is that there are basically no other options in the city.
It looks like most any other Crowne Plaza, but looks can be deceiving. The staff are poorly trained, and as is common in China, indifferent at best, and rude at worst (although at a nice western brand you sometimes get better service- not here).
Front desk- staff are generally unhelpful. They didn’t tell us anything about the hotel... we had to ask about things such as breakfast (included with our rate) and the club lounge.
There also seems to be no communication across the hotel: they have no idea what time either of the two restaurants open or the "bar".
We were given vouchers for “first drink is on us” free drink upon check-in, good for beer, juice, or coffee… -when we tried to use them, we were told the lounge/bar downstairs was out of beer, and that those vouchers were only for juice anyway.
4th floor “bar”- Very weird experience- the name of the “bar” didn’t match the name of it on the website or even on the elevator… scantily clad employees were walking around, going into various side rooms… there were more employees than customers, most of whom stared weirdly at our group the entire time… we felt very out of place, like we were in a night club or strip club instead of a hotel bar…
I could go on and on, but unfortunately characters are limited.
