For travelers visiting the region, Yushu Batang Airport (YUS) serves as the primary and only gateway located directly within Yushu City. As a domestic airport, it connects this high-altitude destination to major Chinese hubs, making it the most practical choice for those arriving by air. Because it is the only airport serving the immediate area, travelers do not have the typical trade-off between multiple nearby hubs; rather, the decision lies in selecting the most comfortable ground transport to reach the city center. A taxi is generally recommended for those seeking a direct, stress-free arrival at their hotel, especially after a high-altitude flight, whereas the airport shuttle provides a reliable and economical alternative for budget-conscious visitors. Always confirm your ground transport arrangements in advance, particularly during peak travel seasons, and keep in mind that the local infrastructure is adapted to the mountainous terrain. For the best experience, ensure your travel plans account for the significant elevation upon arrival.

Friendly staff, clean room, hot water, fast wifi. Comfortable bed. It's about a 10min walk to Gesar Square. The hotel is a bit uphill.
Plenty of restaurants and shops nearby. A taxi from the airport to the hotel is 80 yuan.
Staff doesn't know much about getting around, they have to ask the boss.
It can be a bit noisy when people walk through the hallway as the sound echoes through the building.
It's a bit dark inside and there is no elevator.
Eventhough the minor things, it's a good and affordable place to stay in Yushu!FromUS$18

The location of the house is very good in the city center. It is very convenient to go to Kangba Style Street and watch the performance of King Gesar Square. The proprietress is very good. Seeing that we are not oxygen-free, we have changed the room with windows and did not add more money. Thank you, the boss.
Friends from the mainland should not live in windowless rooms, because Qinghai hotels are basically without air conditioning.FromUS$32

The hotel rooms are spacious and clean, with a good wet/dry separation in the bathroom. The service was excellent; any issues were immediately resolved. There's free parking, which is a big plus for those traveling by car. It's not a new hotel, but rather an older one that's been taken over. Even taxi drivers weren't familiar with it. The city of Yushu itself is clean, taxis are easy to find, and facilities are well-equipped.FromUS$27

The room is very close to the commercial area and it was very noisy after 1am. It was around seven in the morning and I had to collect garbage again. I couldn't get any rest because there was no air conditioning and I couldn't close the windows. There is no place to put things in the bathroom, and there is no partition, which makes it very inconvenient to change clothes after taking a shower. The toilet flushes very hard, like a flood, and I have no choice but to unplug it. The service was pretty good. There was no hot water in the bathroom, and they immediately came to fix it when I reported it. The facilities in the whole room are actually good, but the details still need to be improved.FromUS$39

I don't know why hotels in Yushu are so terrible. They're expensive and not worth the money. This hotel is considered clean in Yushu, and the service is attentive and considerate. The room was clean and spacious, but the shower water was a bummer. There was no hot water. I asked the staff to adjust it, and it came out scalding hot. I tried to endure the scalding heat and shower that night, but the hot water was out again. My shower was a failure. It's not cheap, and I couldn't even take a shower. However, I later moved to the nearby Sanjiangzhiyuan Hotel, and found it even worse. The sanitation at Sanjiangzhiyuan is beyond words... At least this staff house is clean, spacious, and sanitary. I suggest the hotel improve its shower facilities. For nearly 300 yuan, it's unacceptable that the shower water isn't working.FromUS$41

Traveling for a month, this hotel is the worst one, the health is not to say, the key is that there is no water, said that we live this day without water, until the next morning to wash the water dripping. And the hotel does not provide mineral water, the toilet is called a dirty, it is too bad, I don't want to say it, this price to live in such a hotel, my heart is really unbearable.Excellent2 Reviews

The Vienna Hotel is located in the city center. You can get off the plane and take the airport express directly to the hotel. The front desk clerk is a *******, very enthusiastic and responsive to all requests. I had high reflexes. The front desk clerk promptly sent an oxygen concentrator to the room, gave me a drink to slow down high reflexes, paid attention to our precautions, asked about the cold and warmth, and helped me place an order online. Glucose water, and accompanied my friend to the pharmacy to buy me anti-altitude sickness medicine. I am grateful. I would like to thank the hotel manager and waiter, Tashi Delek!
The room was clean and tidy, and the hotel's breakfast was also rich!FromUS$32
