I will never return to this hotel again.

The staff is rude especially the chief of housekeeping. When I couldn’t find the face towels in the washroom, I called the receptionist. A lady came opening my door without knocking, I was quite shocked, luckily I latched the door. She asked me what was my problem , so I told her about the missing towels. She went into the washroom to check and she checked my bed too. She gave me a her disbelief look. When she came back with the towels, she asked me again whether I had misplaced somewhere. I was quite annoyed because of her accusation as if I had stolen the towels. The room was not properly clean too.

Perfect central location in Xi'an. Very comfortable bed, spacious ultra modern ensuite. TV had China News in English. Helpful advice on which busses to take to reach out of city centre sites. Large desk with light . Good kettle/ fridge facilites. Plenty of coat hangers. I had an upgrade and a room with a view over the main road but good windows ment there was no noise to spoil the view.

Great location

The clerk at check-in was friendly and the room was clean. I asked for a wake-up call and it came right on the dot. The bathroom is modern and nice. The only flaw would be the toilet doesn't flush very hard; sometimes needed two times to get the job done. The water pressure in the shower is not very strong, but the water was hot. The bed was a bit hard, but I suppose for some that is not a bad thing. But these are minor and I just mention them for those who are quite picky. The location is the major selling point. Between the Bell Tower and City Wall, within walking distance of most major sites, which is good in a city that expansive.

Be careful which room you choose. The windows in the cheaper rooms do not open. When I stayed in mid-March, the central A/C had not yet shifted to cool air, and as I result my initial room was very warm and stuffy. After the first night, I changed to a room with a window that opens. Although the hallway smelled of cigarette smoke, my room was fine! Very convenient location for sightseeing in the old city! Many of the staff at the front desk speak English, but some do not. We were able to communicate using translation apps. The buffet breakfast (7:00-9:30am)--although not gourmet--was good! If you oversleep, there's a 24-hour Chinese fast food restaurant across the street.
