Platinum wan'ao Victory Hotel

Our 8-day self-drive trip across Shaanxi ended with a stay at Platinum Wan'ao Victory Hotel in Xi'an, and overall, it was an excellent choice. The location is incredibly convenient—right across from Hepingmen Metro Station, just a 50-meter walk away, making public transit access seamless for exploring the city. The hotel faces the ancient city wall directly, and it’s only about a 1.7-kilometer stroll to Yongning Gate if you want to walk along the wall—a pleasant way to enjoy the historic surroundings. Upon check-in, the front desk proactively upgraded us to a larger room, which made a big difference: spacious enough to comfortably unpack and move around, and ideal for family travel. Cleanliness was spot-on, meeting standard expectations without any issues. One minor drawback is the parking situation—being a multi-level garage, it’s not the most user-friendly, especially for larger vehicles, though my compact car navigated it easily. Breakfast was decent but not particularly impressive by luxury hotel standards—nothing overly elaborate, and we didn’t receive a third breakfast for our parents, which was slightly disappointing since this was one of only two hotels on the entire trip that didn’t offer it. Still, considering the excellent location, helpful staff, room comfort, and overall value, it’s hard not to give high praise. For travelers prioritizing convenience and a solid base in central Xi’an, this hotel is a strong recommendation.

HERMITAGE

Staying at HERMITAGE was truly one of the most immersive experiences I've had in Xi'an. Just a 2-minute walk to the Tang Paradise Night Market, where vibrant lights and lively energy greet you outside, while inside, it's all calm and serenity — a peaceful courtyard with red walls, bamboo groves, and authentic Tang Dynasty-inspired design. The rooftop terrace offers breathtaking views of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, perfect for sunset moments. My room was uniquely designed, incredibly comfortable with soft bedding, and the little touches like complimentary Shaanxi tea and fresh seasonal fruit made me feel genuinely cared for. The 24-hour concierge service was responsive and helpful anytime I needed anything. Breakfast featured delicious local Shaanxi snacks, and even late-night bites were thoughtfully provided. It’s rare to find such a high level of comfort, authenticity, and value in one place. This solo trip gave me the perfect balance of culture, relaxation, and discovery. Thank you, HERMITAGE, for creating such a peaceful haven amidst the city’s rhythm. I’ll definitely be back.

Elegant Hotel Xi'an Bell Tower Yongningmen

Had a great experience staying here—first time with friends after my family had previously visited. The staff were incredibly warm and welcoming from the moment we arrived. Everything felt so thoughtfully done, especially the personalized service from the housekeeping team who went above and beyond, even helping organize our clothes. The room itself was spotless, smart, and super comfortable. One of the highlights? Breakfast included fresh hand-pulled liangpi—so refreshing and authentic! I highly recommend trying the traditional paper printing activity—it’s such a unique cultural touch. After a quick workout, I grabbed a late-night bowl of noodles—huge portion, perfect for anyone with a decent appetite. The afternoon tea setup is ideal for unwinding. And don’t miss the rooftop terrace at night—perfect for sipping a cocktail while enjoying panoramic views of the city lights. Plus, you can borrow Hanfu for free (though makeup isn’t included)—I’d suggest booking a nearby salon for styling if you want a full look. Overall, this place nails comfort, culture, and convenience in one.

Xi'an Bell Tower Area Wanda Yi · Linkainuo Hotel

Staying at this hotel near Xi'an's Bell Tower was an absolute highlight of our trip! The room was spacious, clean, and well-equipped—perfect for a comfortable stay. Special shoutout to the front desk staff, Xiao Dong, who was incredibly professional and efficient during check-in—no waiting, just smooth and friendly service. Our room included breakfast, which we enjoyed on the third floor. It’s a bit of a walk up (and you need to swipe your key card to access it), but that added security makes sense, especially with all the foot traffic around the area. What really stood out was the unique interior design on the third floor—stylish, modern, and very Instagram-worthy. The ambiance made breakfast feel like a special treat. Plus, being so close to the Bell Tower and Muslim Quarter made exploring the city a breeze. Great value, great location, and a truly memorable experience. Definitely coming back!

Honglu Garden Hotel (Xi'an Zhonggulou Huimin Street Branch)

Staying at Honglu Garden Hotel (Xi'an Zhonggulou Huimin Street Branch) was an absolutely delightful experience, and I couldn’t be more impressed. Special thanks to the front desk staff, especially Sha Sha—her kindness and genuine warmth made a huge difference. I traveled with my dog, and due to a shipping company mix-up, he arrived in Xi’an earlier than expected. I reached out to the hotel for help, and Sha Sha immediately stepped in to pick him up. When I arrived late at night, my pup was calm, happy, and showed no signs of stress. Even better, she had already cleaned his travel carrier, provided plenty of food and fresh warm water, and made sure everything was ready for his comfort. The housekeeping staff were equally attentive—when I returned from taking my dog out for a walk midday, the room was spotless and freshly tidied. Everything felt thoughtfully cared for, down to the smallest detail. This place truly values pets and their owners, offering not just accommodation but a real sense of home. If you're traveling with your furry friend and want a reliable, welcoming, and thoughtful stay, this hotel is absolutely worth considering. Highly recommended!
