Top Xi’an City Center Hotel Reviews

Four Points By Sheraton Xi'An Bell Tower

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice hotel and surrounding area"

Xi'an Eastern House Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful property within the ancient walls of Xi’an. Especially excellent for the price point. Loved how clean and functional the property was including free soup delivered by robot. Especially loved the above and beyond service of Anna when she helped us with our luggage to the car on check out whilst providing some insightful of the beaten track tips for exploring our next destination of Chongqing. Her genuine happiness was infectious and filled us with a smile for the whole day - thank you :)"

Mercure Xian City Centre

10/10 Excellent

"The room was very nice, clean, and comfortable. The breakfast buffet offered an excellent variety of delicious options. The hotel's location is also a major advantage, with the Muslim Quarter and the Bell and Drum Towers all within easy walking distance. The only disappointment was that the airport pickup service was not accurately described. Our original flight was canceled, so we didn't arrive until after midnight. I emailed the hotel three times over the two days before our arrival to request an airport pickup but never received a response. When I finally called, I was informed that the hotel only provides airport pickup until 9:00 p.m., not 24 hours as advertised. The staff did try to help by connecting me with a third-party transportation service, but it required upfront payment, so we ultimately took a taxi from the airport instead. Despite this issue, we had a pleasant stay overall, and the room, breakfast, and convenient location made it a great choice."

Sofitel Xian on Renmin Square

10/10 Excellent

"Our room at the Sofitel was huge! With a great big comfortable bed, our own sitting area and dressing room, we were very impressed when we arrived. Ethan at the concierge really made our stay, helping us with our bags, our first DiDi and generally making us feel welcome and safe. The lovely man who we think was a Manager took us across to the ATM and assisted us, we were very grateful to him. Breakfast was delicious and the pool a godsend, we would not hesitate to recommend the Sofitel and will definitely stay there again."
