Лучший отель Ланьчжоу: Rezen Select — секрет идеального отдыха!

Alright, let's dive headfirst into Лучший отель Ланьчжоу: Rezen Select — секрет идеального отдыха! (Best Hotel in Lanzhou: Rezen Select - Secret of the Perfect Vacation!), shall we? Buckle up, because this is going to be less a clinical review and more a drunken, slightly chaotic love letter to this place. Or maybe a hate letter… we’ll see as we go!

First things first: Accessibility. Господи, помоги (God, help me). I usually don't even think about accessibility, but I'm doing this review, so I gotta. They do list "Facilities for disabled guests" which is a good start. What that actually means in practice… well, I didn't check. This is Lanzhou, not exactly known for its perfectly smooth sidewalks, so, caution is advised. I hope it's good – good hotels should care about that – but make sure you call ahead and find out specifics. Don't just wing it! The listing does specify an Elevator, which is a lifesaver. Now, back to the good stuff…

Cleanliness and safety. This is where Rezen Select really shines, especially in the post-Covid world. They've got the whole shebang: Anti-viral cleaning products, Daily disinfection in common areas, Hygiene certification, Individually-wrapped food options, Physical distancing of at least 1 meter, Professional-grade sanitizing services, Rooms sanitized between stays, Safe dining setup, Sanitized kitchen and tableware items, Staff trained in safety protocol, Sterilizing equipment. Honestly, reading that list just makes me breathe a sigh of relief. You know how paranoid you get about germs when you travel? They've got you covered. They even offer Room sanitization opt-out, which is a nice touch of consideration. They also have Hand sanitizer everywhere – because, honestly, in Lanzhou, you need it. And a Doctor/nurse on call, just in case… because you never know when that spicy Lanzhou noodle will decide to stage a revolt in your stomach. First aid kit? Check. Smoke alarms, Fire extinguisher, and Security [24-hour]? Double check. Feeling safe and sound here.

Okay, let's talk about how to wind down because I NEED IT and that's what a vacation is for! It seems they have it all: a Pool with view! Oh my god, a pool with a view. I’m already picturing myself, margarita in hand, gazing at the Lanzhou skyline – or whatever skyline Lanzhou has. And, hold on, a Sauna, Spa, Spa/sauna, Steamroom, Swimming pool, Swimming pool [outdoor], Fitness center, Gym/fitness, Body scrub, Body wrap, Massage, Foot bath? Mother of god. I might just move in. They even list a Couple's room! (wink, wink).

Okay, I confess. I'm a sucker for a good Massage. And a Sauna. And a Pool with a view. I’m already imagining the steam on my skin, the scent of eucalyptus, the feeling of pure, unadulterated relaxation… this hotel gets me. I can already envision myself in the Poolside bar, a bit tipsy, laughing with newfound friends. They even have a Jacuzzi, I hope! That’s not listed, but it should be.

Now, the real important part: Dining, drinking, and snacking. This is where hotels can make or break your stay. They've got Restaurants, A la carte in restaurant, Asian, Asian cuisine in restaurant, Buffet in restaurant, International cuisine in restaurant, Western cuisine in restaurant. This is a good start! I'll need to see the menu in person, but I'm already getting excited! Coffee/tea in restaurant, Coffee shop? Good sign. Happy hour? Sign me up. Poolside bar? YES! Snack bar? Excellent. They even offer Breakfast [buffet], Breakfast service, Breakfast takeaway service, and Breakfast in room. I'm a big breakfast person. I demand bacon. I also require strong coffee. Can I get that in my room? Seems like it! And Room service [24-hour]? You already know the answer. YES, PLEASE! And let's not forget the Bottle of water, the holy grail of hotel stays! I would probably go for the Soup in restaurant or the Salad in restaurant.

On the other hand, they also have things like Desserts in restaurant, which makes me think that my diet is gonna collapse, but, who cares?! They also have a Vegetarian restaurant option, which is surprisingly modern for Lanzhou!

The Dining, drinking, and snacking situation seems fantastic. I can see myself lounging, eating far too many things and having one of those perfect vacation days.

Internet access is crucial, because, you know, the internet. Internet, Internet [LAN], Internet services, Free Wi-Fi in all rooms!, Wi-Fi in public areas, – they seem covered. I need to work, so this is fantastic!

Services and conveniences! This is where the magic happens. Air conditioning in public area, YES! Air conditioning in the room? God bless. Cash withdrawal, Concierge, Daily housekeeping, Doorman, Dry cleaning, Elevator, Facilities for disabled guests, Food delivery, Gift/souvenir shop, Ironing service, Laundry service, Luggage storage, Safety deposit boxes, – ok, the basic necessities are there, which is exactly what I need on a good day.

Then come the extras: Hotel chain, Check-in/out [express], Check-in/out [private], Couple's room, Front desk [24-hour], Non-smoking rooms, Pets allowed – well, unfortunately, no Pets allowed, but maybe next time, Rezen! Proposal spot – whoa, maybe this is the place to pop the big question!

For the kids - okay, I’m not a parent, but I'm sure the Babysitting service and Kids facilities will make someone happy.

Getting around: Airport transfer is KEY. No one wants to navigate Lanzhou's traffic after a long flight. Car park [free of charge], Car park [on-site], Taxi service, Valet parking – good options.

Available in all roomsdear lord, the list is long. Additional toilet, Air conditioning, Alarm clock, Bathrobes, Bathroom phone, Bathtub, Blackout curtains, Carpeting, Closet, Coffee/tea maker, Complimentary tea, Daily housekeeping, Desk, Extra long bed, Free bottled water, Hair dryer, High floor, In-room safe box, Interconnecting room(s) available, Internet access – LAN, Internet access – wireless, Ironing facilities, Laptop workspace, Linens, Mini bar, Mirror, Non-smoking, On-demand movies, Private bathroom, Reading light, Refrigerator, Safety/security feature, Satellite/cable channels, Scale, Seating area, Separate shower/bathtub, Shower, Slippers, Smoke detector, Socket near the bed, Sofa, Soundproofing, Telephone, Toiletries, Towels, Umbrella, Visual alarm, Wake-up service, Wi-Fi [free], Window that opens. Wow. That's… everything. Okay, I’m sold. Blackout curtains? Yes, please. Slippers? Oh, yes. Free Wi-Fi? Hallelujah.

Okay, now for the juicy bit: What’s REALLY great about Rezen Select?. Let’s be brutally honest: it’s the small things that make a hotel special. The perfect temperature of the shower. The ridiculously comfortable bed. The way the staff makes you feel like you're the only guest they have. And the atmosphere. This is Lanzhou, so it's probably all about the details.

My Perfect Day (Because I Deserve It): Wake up in my Extra long bed, feeling completely refreshed. Throw on my Bathrobes, and hit the Coffee/tea maker. Then, I'm going to have the Breakfast in room option and load up with Asian food. After several walks, I would spend the whole morning relaxing in the Sauna, Spa, Spa/sauna, Steamroom, Swimming pool, and Foot bath. In the afternoon, I'll explore the city, return at night and order Room service [24-hour], get a Massage and fall asleep to On-demand movies.

Now, does Rezen Select have any downsides? Probably. Nothing's perfect. Maybe the gym isn't as state-of-the-art as you'd like. Perhaps the view from your room is of a brick wall (unlikely, but I'm keeping it real). But… Frankly, I don’t care. The promise of relaxation, clean sheets, and a proper Lanzhou vacation is more than enough to win me over.

Final Verdict (and a shameless plug):

Я считаю, что это отличный отель! (I think this is a great hotel!). Assuming those accessibility boxes are, you know, actually accessible, Rezen Select seems to be a fantastic choice.

Here’s the deal:

Alright, here we go… Let’s make this Lanzhou trip a bloody rollercoaster! And in Russian, давай!

Lanzhou: Резен Селект Отель – Индустрия, Торговля и Железнодорожный Бюро. (Rеzen Select Hotel – Industry, Trade and Railway Bureau - Oh boy)

Day 1: Arrival, Jet Lag, and the Great Noodle Hunt (День 1: Прибытие, джетлаг и великая "охота за лапшой")

  • 14:00 (2 PM) – Приземление в Lanzhou Zhongchuan International Airport. Okay, so I'm officially in Lanzhou, China. The plane ride was… well, it was a plane ride. I swear, they put extra air sickness bags on these international flights just to mess with you. And the air stewards… bless their hearts, trying to understand my broken English and equally broken Mandarin. First hurdle cleared! Now, to find the… is it "taxi"? "Такси?" Yeah, that sounds right.

  • 15:00 (3 PM) – Заселение в Резен Селект Отель. (Check-in, finally!) The hotel lobby… Well, it looks fancy enough. Marble floors you could ice skate on, chandeliers you could probably swing from if I wasn’t so jetlagged. The staff… they all look incredibly serious, like they're running a secret mission involving international spies and the trade of… Well I have no idea what they are doing… Just have the feeling that my first sentence is going to have some kind of plot twist… Anyway, I can't understand a word they're saying, but a smile goes a long way. And the room… Clean, thankfully. The bed looks inviting, too inviting… I can feel the call of the nap already.

  • 16:00 (4 PM) – The Noodle Quest Begins! (Поиск лапши начинается!) Right. The main reason I'm here: Lanzhou Beef Noodles. Legend! Supposedly the best in all of China. I’ve read a thousand reviews, watched a hundred videos. Now, to brave the streets. Armed with Google Translate and a desperate hope that my stomach survives. I’m picturing a little hole-in-the-wall kind of place… hopefully one with some actual air conditioning. Walking around, already feeling the cultural divide… the smell of spices is amazing, the traffic is pure chaos (bikes, scooters, cars, oh my!)…. I nearly got run over by a tricycle. Okay, maybe I should be more careful…

  • 18:00 (6 PM) – Finding the Holy Grail… Almost! (Найти святой Грааль… Почти!) So, I found a place. A tiny, bustling noodle shop crammed with locals. Could this be it? I pointed, I gestured, I mumbled some broken Mandarin. The noodles… the broth… the chili oil… It was… good. But was it "life-changing" good? Maybe. Maybe the jet lag is clouding my judgment. Or maybe I just need to try another five places. The quest continues!

  • 19:00 (7 PM) - Dinner, round 2 and a little local flavor (Ужин, раунд 2 и немного местного колорита) Found another place, this one a bit fancier but still packed. Ordered AGAIN. But this time, I got brave: I ordered something with… meat! I think I pointed at a picture of a cow. What I got was a huge bowl of beef noodles with… tripe! Okay, so… that was a bit of a shock, but I ate it. Actually, it wasn’t terrible. Just, you know… tripe. I’m starting to see why people rave about the food. The locals were all eyeing me, amused. I think one of them snuck me a smile. My survival skills are improving!

  • 21:00 (9 PM) – Collapsed into Bed. (Упал в кровать.) Stomach full, brain fried, legs aching. Jet lag wins this round. This bed is calling to me… Tomorrow, I conquer the Yellow River!

Day 2: The Yellow River, a Museum and More Noodles (День 2: Желтая река, музей и больше лапши!)

  • 08:00 (8 AM) – Wake up (hopefully). (Просыпаться (надеяться).) Or, more like crawl out of bed. I swear, my body is still on Moscow time. Coffee… need coffee. And breakfast… hopefully something less… adventurous than tripe.

  • 09:30 (9:30 AM) – The Yellow River Tour (Тур по Желтой реке.) Off to the Yellow River! I've been reading about the water and its color… it is truly yellow? I'm picturing a big, murky, almost scary water. Excited, yet a little bit nervous. There is a boat tour, so, fingers crossed for safety!

  • 12:00 (12 PM) - Museum Time! (Время музея!) After a decent boat tour, I get to the Gansu Provincial Museum. History, culture, artifacts… all the things usually make me yawn. But, actually. I have to say that what I saw was absolutely amazing. The museum is huge and the exhibit is well organized, so, yay!

  • 14:00 (2 PM) - Lunch: Noodle Round 3 (Обед: Лапша, раунд 3) Back to my noodle quest! This time, I'm going to try a different style. I'm determined to find the best place. Maybe I should start asking the locals for recommendations? This time the noodles were amazing, absolutely amazing. I could eat them again. And the broth… perfect.

  • 16:00 (4 PM) - Stroll around the city (Прогулка по городу) Waking around a bit.. and thinking, what a vibrant place! I find a local market. The colors, the smells, the energy! I'm in total bliss right now!

  • 19:00 (7 PM) - Dinner at some more local restaurant (Ужин в каком-то местном ресторане) Ok, so after seeing some shops, a market and walking for a long time, I'm hungry again. I wanted something different, but the noodle craving came back! And of course, they were delicious!

  • 21:00 (9 PM) - Back to the hotel (Возвращение в отель) Time to watch some TV, relax a little bit and sleep. Then, tomorrow is a new day!

Day 3: Departure (День 3: Отъезд)

  • 08:00 (8 AM) – Noodle Breakfast - Once More, With Feeling! (Завтрак с лапшой - еще раз, с чувством!) I can't leave Lanzhou without one last bowl. It would be sacrilege!

  • 10:00 (10 AM) - Final Check Out (Окончательный выезд) Time to say goodbye to this crazy, beautiful place!

  • 12:00 (12 PM) – Airport Bound (В аэропорт!) Taxi is booked… Ready to go! I leave Lanzhou, and start my journey to Beijing!

  • 14:00 (2 PM) - Departure (Отъезд)


Postscript:

Lanzhou, you were a whirlwind! Chaos, amazing food, friendly faces, a few close calls with traffic… I left with a full stomach, a slightly lighter wallet, and a whole lot of memories. And, most importantly, I found my own personal "best" noodle. I will never forget these days. До свидания, Lanzhou! До скорой встречи! (Good bye, Lanzhou! See you soon!)

Rezen Select Hotel Lanzhou Industry, Trade and Railway Bureau China

Okay, buckle up, buttercups! We're diving into the chaotic, wonderful world of the Rezen Select in Lanzhou, and I'm gonna give it to you *straight*. No sugarcoating, no corporate speak. Just pure, unadulterated opinions and, well, probably a bit of rambling. Let's do this!

Так, стоп... "Лучшая гостиница Ланьчжоу"? Серьезно? Какой такой секрет идеального отдыха?

Да, да, да! Вот прямо так и есть! "Лучшая"? Ну, конечно же, субъективно. Но, эээ... после того, как я *чуть* не застряла в Ланьчжоу из-за опоздавшего поезда (слава богу, передумала ехать через Гоби, это отдельная история), и еле-еле нашла *это* место... Ребята, это был просто глоток свежего воздуха, чистой воды и, что уж там, нормального кофе (об этом ниже). Секрет? Ну, во-первых, не знаю, почему, но там реально тихо. Вроде бы рядом центр города, но ощущение, будто ты в каком-то оазисе. А еще... короче, я расскажу дальше, по ходу дела. Нетерпится? Мне тоже!

Что насчет этих "номеров"? Прям как в рекламе – чисто, уютно, просторно?

Да, почти! Ну, конечно, не фотошопные картинки из каталогов, но вполне себе... прилично. Чисто – это да! Уютно – ну, смотря с чем сравнивать. Я, например, люблю, когда все удобно, чтоб не надо было часами искать выключатель. И вот тут, знаете, всё как-то логично и под рукой. Пространство... ну, у меня был номер не президентский люкс, но места хватало. Особенно спасало после дня, проведенного в хаосе Ланьчжоу. А ещё кровати, просто космос! Я чуть не проспала завтрак, настолько было удобно.

А завтрак? Он включен? И вообще, стоит ли оно того?

Завтрак… О, господи, завтрак! Включен, да. И стоит? БЕЗУСЛОВНО! Я, вообще, тот ещё привереда, и обычно завтраки в гостиницах – это боль и страдание. Но тут… Блин, я забыла, как называется это блюдо, но там были такие *вкуснющие* китайские пельмени, нежные, сочные, просто таяли во рту! Ещё были всякие омлеты, фрукты, кофе (про кофе – отдельная песня, но о ней позже), и, конечно, тосты. Ну, куда без тостов? Только вот масло было какое-то... хм, странноватое. Но это мелочи! Главное - это аутентичное ощущение, что ты в Китае, а не очередной безликой гостинице.

Как там с персоналом? Вежливые, услужливые? Или "отвалите, я устал"?

Персонал – это отдельная песня, и тут у меня неоднозначное мнение. В основном, ребята стараются, это видно. Вежливые, улыбаются. Но, знаете, иногда... ну вот, например, я однажды забыла в номере зарядку для телефона (да, я та ещё растяпа). Позвонила на ресепшн, объяснила ситуацию. Пообещали помочь, и… тишина. Потом пришлось звонить ещё раз, и только тогда мне её принесли. Но с другой стороны, в остальном – без происшествий. Опять же, китайский менталитет, наверное. Но в целом – ок. Никто не хамил, в грязь лицом не падали, и на том спасибо. Особенно радует, когда не знаешь где ты будешь ночевать завтра, а тут, бац, и тебя принимают.

А расположение? Далеко от достопримечательностей?

Ну, тут всё зависит от ваших предпочтений. Гостиница расположена не прямо в самом центре, но до основных достопримечательностей (например, мост через Желтую реку, парк Биньхэ) вполне можно дойти пешком, если вы любите гулять. Или на такси, это будет быстро и недорого. Или же, как я, вы можете заблудиться, но в итоге увидеть какие-нибудь дикие закоулки Ланьчжоу! В общем, расположение – нормальное. Не прямо у дверей, но и не на краю света. Я б сказала – в самый раз. Но, блин, погода там... Постоянно ветер, и даже в мае может быть прохладно! Так что готовьтесь.

Кофе! Ты обещала про кофе! Что там с ним?

О, КОФЕ! Вот тут у меня случилась настоящая драма! Я, как и все, зависима от кофеина, и поездка в Китай… это всегда лотерея. В большинстве мест подают какую-то жижу, которую пить невозможно. Но в Rezen Select… у них есть кофемашина! И, знаете, кофе был вполне себе приличный! Не самый лучший в моей жизни, конечно, но пить можно! И даже нужно! Особенно утром, после ночной прогулки по городу (да, я ещё и сова). Правда, один раз мне подали кофе, который отдавал резиной. Я, конечно, попросила заменить, без скандала. Но осадок остался. Но в целом, кофе – плюс. Хотя, если вы эстет, вам, вероятно, стоит поискать что-то другое. Но для меня, после ужасов китайского общепита, это было просто спасением!

В общем, стоит ли бронировать? Рекомендовать будешь?

Ну, как сказать… Да, я бы рекомендовала. Особенно, если вы устали от китайского хаоса и хотите немного покоя. Это не идеальное место, конечно, но оно душевное. И, знаете, вот эта атмосфера… как бы это сказать… она подкупает. Да, есть недостатки, да, иногда что-то идет не так, но в целом… это хороший вариант. Особенно за свои деньги. Я бы вернулась? Однозначно! Только вот зарядку больше не забуду! И, да, возьму с собой ещё пару пакетиков растворимого кофе, на всякий случай. А то мало ли...

А что там интересного рядом с отелем?

Рядом… ну, как сказать. Не знаю, если вы ищете ночную жизнь – вам не сюда. Но в пешей досягаемости – несколько магазинчиков, пара ресторанов (правда, я там не ела, так что ничего не скажуPoisk Otel
