Hohhot Map. Click the map to enlarge it. Hohhot is located in the middle of Inner Mongolia, between 39Â°35'N and 40Â°51'N, 110Â°46'E and 112Â°10'E. It leans against the Yinshan Mountain on the north, adjoins the Yellow River on the south and meets Beijing, Tianjin, Tangshan, the Bohai Bay and the other economically advanced areas on the east.
Hohhot is one of those places where no-one speaks a word of English therefore we were pleasantly surprised to find check-in staff fluent in the language. The rooms are nicely sized, with two queen beds they were adequate for our family. The staff generously sent us complimentary moon cakes.
