Langmusi Hotel — Hotel in Gansu

Stayed here for a week in early June. Firstly to try and sort out some confusion it appears there are 2 Langmusi hotels most of the reviews here including this one are for the one by the bus stop and owned by the Black tent and langmusi horse trekking operation.|The other langmusi hotel is by the monastery entrance at the top of the hill. |Pros | The rooms are large, clean the bathroom is also a very good size.|The staff speak some English and really try to help as much as possible.
