5-Star Hotels in Shaanxi, China

Overall, we had a wonderful stay. The room was impeccably clean, the bed was very comfortable with just the right firmness, and it was nice and quiet at night for a good night's sleep. The front desk staff were warm and welcoming, and the check-in and check-out processes were quick and efficient. The location is fantastic, making it very convenient to get around, with plenty of dining options nearby. Great value for money compared to other hotels in the same price range. Highly recommended, and I would definitely stay here again next time. I will definitely visit Xi'an again—the service was just too good!

Beautiful boutique hotel hidden on the last 3 floors on a high building at the center of the walled city. Very convenient and very quiet. Nice rooftop with swimming pool, bar, view point on the bell tower. Room was elegantly design and spacious. The service is amazing, very efficient yet patiente and talored to your needs. The staffed recommended us great restaurants and show. Joy served us a very nice cocktail at the bar. Food was delicious and lots of complementary snacks and drinks. I would recommend this hotel to anyone that come to Xi'an. Wonderful!

I redeemed a hotel voucher from Ctrip for 699 (RMB) for two nights with breakfast included, which was an amazing deal! The hotel's decor is quite grand and opulent. My room had a large floor-to-ceiling window directly facing the city wall, offering beautiful views day and night. Plus, it's right next to a commercial area and a subway station, making dining and getting around incredibly convenient.

Fantastic hotel with spacious rooms. The pillows and bed were very comfortable, which is the best thing you can ask for as a traveler. I was originally going to book a hotel near the Datang Everbright City, but after checking the prices and reviews, I decided on this one. It's very close to the elevated highway on the second day and not far from the Everbright City either. Their breakfast, in particular, is genuinely amazing. Renaissance has always been a top-tier hotel brand, and even though they were acquired by Marriott, they’ve maintained their high standards of service and quality. I will definitely stay here again next time I visit Xi'an. The room photos look exactly like the promotional pictures, so I won't bother uploading more.

The hotel lobby is magnificent and luxurious, and the hot springs feature the same imperial spring water from a thousand years ago. Staying here allows guests to access the Huaqing Palace scenic area at any time. The hotel service is exceptional—attentive, meticulous, and delivered with gentle greetings that make you feel truly warmed. This hotel is well worth experiencing.

This is an apartment hotel, and it has all the amenities an apartment should have: a fridge, washing machine, microwave, induction cooker, and even tableware. It's perfect for extended stays of several days. The swimming pool and gym are also fully equipped, making for a cozy and comfortable stay. The selection at the East and West buffet breakfast is a bit limited, but it's exquisite and delicious, with different offerings each day. The Xi'an Museum and Small Wild Goose Pagoda are within walking distance. The Bell and Drum Towers and the Ancient City Wall are about 6 km away, and shared bicycles are very convenient for getting around!

I came for a staycation the night before school started, and I was torn between the InterContinental Economic Development Zone and the InterContinental High-tech Zone. Since I hadn't been to the High-tech Zone one, I decided to give it a try. The hotel opened in 2019 and was renovated in 2023. It's located next to Yanping Gate, with plenty of good food nearby, though it's a bit far from tourist attractions. As a Platinum Ambassador, I was pre-upgraded via email to an open-plan suite, but due to a cleanliness issue, I was moved to a one-bedroom suite. The room featured Byredo BLANCHE toiletries and a Dyson hairdryer. It's worth mentioning that the bathrobes in the room were unique and very comfortable to wear. The overall decor of the room was dominated by dark-toned stone, a classic InterContinental style. The biggest highlight of the one-bedroom suite was a huge circular bathtub, about a meter in diameter, which was incredibly comfortable for soaking. This bathtub might just be the best in Xi'an. Before checking in, I had heard that the hotel's F&B was excellent, and my experience confirmed it. The lounge's afternoon tea was decent, though it did include carbs like Liangpi or Liangmian (cold noodles), which is very Xi'an. However, the happy hour was fantastic, with about 7-8 hot dishes, many cold dishes, and a wide selection of drinks. A bartender from the lobby bar even came specifically to mix drinks during happy hour. The overall quality of the lounge could rival the Ritz-Carlton Xi'an. The breakfast selection was even more outstanding, with freshly made Roujiamo (meat burgers), Cheong Fun, and beef noodles, all tasting delicious and full of local flavor. And because it's in the High-tech Zone, there were fewer children in the lounge, making the overall experience much better than Marriott's lounges. The service is another aspect of this hotel that deserves high praise. It's truly surprising that a hotel in Xi'an, which is often considered a service 'lowland,' can provide service standards comparable to luxury brands. All the staff were very enthusiastic, professional, and attentive. At breakfast, all staff members would kindly greet you, and because the breakfast area is quite large, they would also help you get some food. Regarding service, I must specifically commend Fiona & Rita from the lounge, and the duty manager Jennifer. Due to staying up late watching the US Open, I only got a quick glimpse of the fitness facilities. The changing rooms had plunge pools, and the pool water temperature was moderate, though the length was a bit short. It meets standard five-star expectations. Overall, the hotel industry in Xi'an is very competitive, with the W Hotel flagship, the Hualuxe and Westin near the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, two JW and InterContinental hotels in the High-tech Zone and north of the city, and two Grand Hyatts and one Hyatt Regency already open, with Park Hyatt also on the horizon. The name InterContinental High-tech Zone might easily be overlooked among these, but among all the hotels I've stayed at in Xi'an, this one definitely ranks in the top three.

Novotel Xi'an Bell Tower is located right in the city center, right next to the Bell Tower, making getting around super convenient! There's even a direct shuttle bus right outside the hotel. The room amenities were great and the environment was spotless! I stayed for three days during the National Day holiday: the hotel service was exceptionally attentive, and the breakfast was rich with great local specialties. It left a wonderful and lasting impression on my first trip to Xi'an!

Had a very comfortable stay at the HUALUXE Xi'an Tanghua, and I just had to leave a review. Upon arrival, the concierge proactively stepped in to help with our luggage. Miss Xu made the check-in process smooth and efficient, and Shanzha at the front desk patiently explained the hotel facilities while thoughtfully offering local sightseeing tips. The guest room was exceptionally well-maintained with soft, pleasant lighting. However, it still differs from modern business hotels—if you are looking for high-tech gadgets and facilities, this might not be for you. But for those who appreciate traditional Tang Dynasty garden aesthetics and antique charm, this is definitely the place to choose.

The room was clean and tidy, offering great value for money. A special shout-out to the housekeeping auntie, who was always warm and friendly, greeting us every time she passed by – it was truly heartwarming. The male staff member at the front desk who handled our check-in was professional and amiable, providing excellent service. The hotel arranged a room with a great view for us, and it was the best view we had among all the five-star hotels we stayed at during this trip. The lobby staff were polite and attentive, and the doorman at the entrance actively opened doors for us when we arrived and departed, and helped with our luggage. The location is excellent; it's a five to six-minute walk to Qujiang Ruins Park, which has a beautiful environment, and Datang Furong Garden is also just a five to six-minute walk away. There's also a shopping complex nearby, making dining, accommodation, transportation, and entertainment all incredibly convenient. The Cantonese restaurant within the hotel also offered delicious food. When checking out, the female front desk staff even specially prepared a suitable small gift for our little boy – the attention to detail was exceptional. Overall, we were extremely satisfied with our stay! After comparing many options, we chose this European brand hotel, and indeed, based on my experience, foreign-owned hotels generally have an edge in service detail management. I would definitely recommend it to friends and family. While other tourist services in Xi'an weren't great, our stay at this hotel was quite comfortable!
