Airport Guide
Compare 2 airports near Kashgar City
Travelers heading to Kashgar have two primary airport options, though they serve very different needs. The nearest and most convenient facility is Kashgar Laining International Airport (KHG), situated only 8.55 km from the city center. As a major domestic gateway for the region, it is the recommended arrival point for most visitors, offering affordable bus and taxi services that reach the heart of the city in as little as 15 to 50 minutes. In contrast, Shache Yarkant Airport (QSZ) is located 164.43 km away in Shache County. This airport is typically used for regional travel within southern Xinjiang. Passengers arriving at QSZ must undertake a significantly longer journey to reach Kashgar, relying on regional train lines or long-distance taxis, which can take over two hours. For the best experience, we strongly advise flying into KHG directly. Always carry the address of your destination in Chinese characters to show taxi drivers, and opt for metered taxis or designated airport buses to ensure fair pricing throughout your stay in this historic Silk Road hub.

Wanda Plaza(Kashgar) Kashgar City|3.37km from city center
After dinner, I took a taxi back and accidentally saw some people in uniforms welcoming me at the door. I looked carefully and found that it was the designated reception point. The whole building feels like a comprehensive mall, and accommodation is only part of it. There is a sales point for Nanda Dairy on the first floor, which is open from 8 am to 10 pm, which is very convenient for guests. There is a huge wall of luggage lockers on the first floor, which is shocking. Unfortunately, I felt that they were not staffed enough at the front desk several times, and the waiting time was relatively long, but it was not easy to maintain a good service attitude. To be fair, the hotel hardware and supplies are really good. The decoration is a more old-fashioned hotel, with wooden cabinets, a little smell, and the facilities may not be particularly new, but the overall feeling is OK. The shampoo and shower gel are not a very expensive brand, but they are comfortable to use. The shower gel seems to be from pmpm, and the hair dryer is also a new basic model. The slippers are particularly thick and of good quality, surpassing many high-priced hotels. I will consider staying here next time I come to Kashgar. I stayed in an expensive hotel next to the ancient city for one night and felt that I didn’t win many points except for the geographical location.FromUS$30

Located on the street in the ancient city, it is very convenient to get in and out. It is very close to the popular check-in spots. There are many coffee and local delicacies around.
I opened the window and found myself in the scenery. The children downstairs were playing and chatting. The locals were passing by and chatting. It felt so good.
The room was clean and comfortable. The bed was very comfortable. I slept well every day.
The boss is super nice. He will help you with your luggage at the parking lot outside the ancient city. He will find a way to help you with any problems during the trip. This time, I suddenly didn't want to drive back. The boss was very helpful in finding a towing service for us. It was much cheaper than the price given by the platform, saving money and effort.
The terrace is also suitable for daydreaming in the B&B. You can see the daily life of the locals around. It is very comfortable. It feels like my little home in Kashgar.FromUS$60

The hotel boasts an excellent location, making it very convenient for getting around, and it's not far from the Kashgar Old City. The breakfast buffet offers a wide selection, and there's a laundry room available. A special shout-out to the front desk staff, especially the ladies – their smiles were so sweet and their service incredibly thoughtful. When my door lock had a minor issue and wouldn't open, they quickly found someone to fix it. I'll definitely stay here again next time I visit. Beautiful Xinjiang isn't just about its stunning scenery; the people are even more wonderful, as warm and generous as a Xinjiang dance.FromUS$21

Xiyu Avenue Kashgar City|2.09km from city center
It may be the most relaxing place for the body and mind in the whole Xinjiang journey.
Children can play freely in the yard. Men work. I can read books, drink tea, and chat with my hostess for a while.
Afternoon tea and breakfast are great, the local style and modern comfort are blended here. There are good books on the shelves, especially on the theme of the Silk Road. Want to know about the house story, Kashgar history, travel tips have also been fully answered and recommended.
Even better, 5 minutes walk from the local food street, the recommendation of the hostess is very reliable, more authentic than the dirty and messy small restaurants near the ancient city.
The dolls were shown the CCCTV documentary on the new Silk Road that night, Kashgar, which focuses on Svenhding's adventure story, certainly not the Russian consulate. The dolls were stunned when they saw the house they were in at the moment. A wonderful coincidence.
Anyway, it is recommended to passengers who want to be connected to history, passengers who want something different from the Internet celebrity ecology, and passengers who want to eat and sleep well.
Friendly with baby, very quiet, clean and beautiful.FromUS$206

Kashgar Pedestrian Street/People's Square Kashgar City|0.85km from city center
The room was exactly as pictured, and the upgraded room type was even more spacious. It had a smart toilet, and the shower pressure was great with plenty of hot water. Even though the window faced the street, it wasn't noisy at all. After more than ten days of traveling in Xinjiang, I had long run out of my own lotion. Only three hotels on my trip provided lotion, so when I discovered this one did, I was genuinely thrilled! Finally, I could relieve the dryness and itchiness on my legs – huge praise for that! The front desk staff were all very friendly, and the breakfast was quite good too. Plus, they offer airport pick-up and drop-off, which is super convenient. While a taxi to the airport isn't expensive, having this service just feels incredibly thoughtful.FromUS$26

After a long and bumpy journey to beautiful Kashgar, checking into the Radisson Hotel was definitely the right choice – it's quiet and convenient. If I hadn't specifically asked, I never would have guessed this hotel has been operating for 12 years. Everything, from the cleanliness of the hallway carpets to the pristine condition of the furniture and appliances in the room, is maintained to a high standard. The service is superb, and both the late-night snacks and breakfast are reliably good. The hardware is well-maintained, and there are no overlooked spots when it comes to hygiene. I felt completely at ease during my stay and highly recommend it to anyone who values a great practical experience.FromUS$96

This was my first time staying here. The waiter brought us dried fruits, Sprite, and snacks, which was a bit of a surprise. On the day of check-out, the front desk guy Kurban also gave us two dragon dolls. The front desk lady also helped to call a taxi, which saved me the time of going outside the hotel to call a taxi. Brother Kurban saw that we had a lot of luggage and helped put it in the car. Thumbs up to himFromUS$97

I chose to stay at the Air Garden in the old city the night before leaving Kashgar to see the apricot blossoms in Southern Xinjiang. As soon as I completed my booking, the guesthouse manager contacted me to ask if I needed airport transfer and informed me about the local weather conditions. I felt a sense of warmth even before checking in.
Since vehicles aren't allowed in the old city, the manager informed me of the drop-off point and picked me up the night before check-in. This service was fantastic and saved me the awkwardness of dragging my luggage around looking for the place.
The hotel used to be the residence of a local 'Master Bayi' who was in the jade business. His eldest son later inherited the business and expanded it internationally. The original residence was very luxurious. Later, a boss from Hunan bought it and preserved the original four floors. The current third and fourth floors are replicas of the original residence, featuring exquisite wood carvings, making it a wood carving museum. Guests can visit for free. The fifth to seventh floors are the guesthouse, and the first floor sells jade. On the day of check-in, I received a complimentary jade 'peace buckle' from the guesthouse, which was a thoughtful touch 👍
The room decor had a distinct local flavor. Welcome fruits were already waiting in the room, and the mini-bar was free to enjoy. The super-large terrace offered a fantastic spot for enjoying the night view. On the day of check-in, I got to enjoy a complimentary afternoon tea. The pastries were exquisite, and sipping tea while admiring the beautiful scenery of the old city made all my worries disappear.
This hotel boasts the highest vantage point in the entire old city, perfect for watching sunsets and sunrises. I didn't get to experience it this time, but I'll definitely try it next time.
A big thank you to my manager, a handsome local guy, who was with me from the moment I booked until I left. He showed me around and explained the stories behind the wood carving museum, promptly resolved any requests I had during my stay, and patiently inquired about my airport transfer. Thumbs up! The guesthouse manager arranges breakfast for guests on the fifth floor according to their requested time. You can choose to dine indoors or outdoors. The breakfast spread was rich and well-balanced; I couldn't even finish it all by myself 😂
This guesthouse has only 10 rooms, offering a high degree of privacy. The elevator and entrances all use facial recognition. After checking in, I had a travel photoshoot with makeup on, and afterwards, the facial recognition surprisingly didn't work 😂 This only further convinced me of the guesthouse's excellent security! 👍
Although it's a guesthouse, it's very well-managed. Here, I truly experienced what 'customer-first' means. The guesthouse manager, Ms. Jin, an elegant lady, genuinely cares for guests, making everyone feel at home. I heard that after May 1st, the guesthouse will offer a service where managers take guests on tours of the old city. This is a brilliant idea, saving guests who are unfamiliar with the old city the hassle of getting lost. I look forward to the guesthouse getting better and better. The guesthouse's amenity kit is beautiful, and the manager said I could take it home, which is great! 😄
I'll definitely stay here again next time I visit Kashgar. I highly recommend everyone to experience the charm of this guesthouse up close and hear its stories firsthand.FromUS$191
