Staying at Angsana Xi'an Lintong was an absolute delight from start to finish. The resort’s ambiance is serene and beautifully maintained, with a spacious lobby that immediately puts you at ease. My room was spotless, featuring a private balcony overlooking lush greenery and a deep soaking tub—perfect for unwinding after a long day. What truly stood out was our host, Warm, whose genuine warmth and attentive service made all the difference. He went above and beyond with kindness and patience, making us feel like valued guests. The location is fantastic—just minutes away from the Terracotta Warriors and Huaqing Hot Springs, with easy access by car or public transport. Everything about this stay was exceptional, and I’d absolutely return in a heartbeat—especially if Warm is on duty again.
