Homestays in Shaanxi, China

The homestay we stayed in this time really exceeded our expectations! Opposite is the Daming Palace National Park, with a superior location and prosperous business. It is close to the subway entrance, and is a few stops away from the Bell Tower and the Tang Dynasty City that Never Sleeps, which is more convenient than driving. Nearby is the lively night market street of Wanda Plaza, which is very convenient for eating and shopping. The community is of high quality, the lobby is luxurious and atmospheric, the rooms are spacious and bright, with a light luxury style and exquisite design. The large flat with five bedrooms, two living rooms and three bathrooms is very practical, and it was just enough to accommodate our group of more than ten people! It is also equipped with a fully automatic mahjong machine, which added a lot of fun to our leisure time. It was as warm and comfortable as at home, and it was a very pleasant travel experience.

**Title: Avoid this hotel ⚡️ Only informed about renovations at midnight? Don't come here with elderly or children!** **Body:** Traveling with elderly and children is already tiring, but staying at this hotel was a huge mistake! This is definitely the worst experience I've ever had, with absolutely no service to speak of 😡. During check-in, they casually mentioned that renovations were happening downstairs and it would be noisy! Why wasn't this communicated earlier? The hotel actually said, ”You can switch to another hotel”... Their emotional intelligence is seriously questionable. In the middle of the night, where do they expect us to go with our family? Seeing my elderly parents and children, I had no choice but to swallow my anger and stay. This kind of hidden information is truly infuriating! 🤬 Before checking in, I messaged them on WeChat asking if they had anything for elderly or children, naively hoping they'd thoughtfully prepare a late-night snack. Turns out, that was just my wishful thinking! Just because it was one minute past ten, the late-night snack was gone, leaving only some plain porridge without any side dishes. Even the parking entrance was incredibly hard to find, which led to a delay in checking in. I'm so exhausted 🤦‍♀️. Perhaps the service at my previous hotel was too good; they even left warm sweet soup in thermos containers in the room on hot nights. This hotel really pales in comparison! Pretty facades are all the same; I really can't stay at a hotel with no service! What's the use of having only a beautiful rooftop pool and night view? I hope the hotel addresses these issues and doesn't take guests for granted. Be very careful when choosing a hotel! Don't use your vacation time to test things out! 🙅‍♀️

The hotel is a little bit hard to find and is down a spooky alley, but otherwise it is quite a great hotel for the price. The staff was very friendly and helpful with everything!

Best place to enjoy Muslim quarter food. This hotel just upside 24h shop. If we want to eat,night view just go downstairs with lift. We family are 4th floor stay for 2 night. The room large and able to wash our clothes . Recommended. The xian grand mosque just 100+m walking distance. Drum tower walking distance. Easy transport to go to teracotta, the great of Qin teather. The host is nice

The hotel ia strategic, near and easy access to all the scenic area. Food is not a problem since the shopping street is surrounding the hotel area. We have a great time staying there. The host has been very helpful and friendly during our entire stay. Laundry services is also available at the hotel and it’s convenient for us. If you are tired from walking at the scenic area, the lower ground shop-lot have lot off massage parlours where you can relax after the hectic day. The owners’ cats are so cute and super friendly and being and additional friends for us 😍

This guesthouse is our top choice when traveling with family. The location is absolutely perfect, right at the foot of Mount Hua, making trips to and from the visitor center incredibly convenient and saving us a lot of hassle. All the facilities are brand new, and the rooms are clean and dry, offering a very comfortable stay. What really touched us was the owner's thoughtful service: he drove us to the scenic area early in the morning, and when he realized my phone was out of service and I couldn't scan a QR code, he proactively helped me top it up, which was a huge lifesaver. He's genuinely warm and sincere, always putting guests first. Whether you're driving or hiking, this place is a perfect fit. I've already saved it, and I'll definitely stay here again next time I visit Mount Hua. I truly recommend it to anyone traveling to Huashan!

The location of this traditional hostel next to the city walls was very convenient and close to a metro station and at walking distance of some of the city landmarks. The room was very clean, beautiful traditional style, very comfortable beds & cosy bedlinen. Good water pressure. No noise at night time as double windows. Little offer of food and drinks at the cafe on the ground floor but many places nearby to eat and drink. I do recommend it!

Only smaller room has access to lift 🛗 bigger room is on different building and NO lift 🛗 At 12pm exactly I walk inside the hallway, to their receptionist for check in (normal check in was at 2pm actually, I missed that time frame). I have expected that my room will have no lift, but thank goodness when the receptionist opening the door behind the counter I saw a lift and I asked about it. He told me that not all room have access to it, and mine specifically is on different building with stairs, and I’m on the fifth floor with balcony 🫣 He kindly asked us whether we want to change our room and he also invite us to show each room available for the lift and for the other building, oh my gosh, I cannot tell you how struggling it was to climb to the fifth floor, we only managed to the 4th one to see the room, and gave up. We chose room 5003 as it has a large windows with unobstructed view, albeit a bit smaller than what we ordered, but the lift access make it worth it. And also if you’re on a heavier side like I am and not used to walk a lot, just bare in mind, didi are not allowed on this street, they’re motorcycles you can pay to sent you inside, but the price varies. We also only used the bicycle until their park station and has to walk inside the street another 500m +- I tried to used taobao but my item kept on failing to deliver 😭 but thank god I can return and refund all of them. All in all this has taught me a lesson to choose hotel that didi can drive literally up until the front entrance of the hotel. I’m not build to walk a lot 😭 and literally carrying 5kg of rice in my bagpack too along with how many litres of drinks. But the hotel is nice, they treat us well, and very whenever I WeChat they will make sure to reply promptly. The cleanliness can be improved, and the amenities are a little bit outdated. There’s foreign hairs from mopping I think, so we just wipe the floors with clean towel again.

I stayed here for 2 nights and had a wonderful experience. The room was clean and comfortable, the staff were very friendly, and the food was delicious. The location is a bit far from the city center, but it’s close to the Huashan scenic area, making it perfect if you plan to visit the mountain. If you’re looking for a quiet and peaceful environment, this accommodation is an excellent choice. The place feels homely and welcoming. They provide free shuttle services to the Huashan ticket office and the train station, which is very convenient. The common area on the first floor is also very relaxing. Tip: Call the accommodation in advance to arrange a pick-up from the train station. Didi taxi drivers at the station tried to overcharge me, so the free shuttle is a much better option. There is also a small ***** mall near the Huashan ticket office with more shops and restaurants if you need anything.

Ms. Ding, a former tour guide who has extensive experience climbing Huashan mountain, is an excellent source of advice and tips. She provides gloves and hiking poles, eliminating the need for guests to purchase or bring their own. Ms. Ding can conveniently pick you up from the Huashan Bei Station, and she even offers to purchase entrance tickets, cable car tickets, and shuttle bus tickets, ensuring a hassle-free experience. To immerse ourselves in the local culture, Ms. Ding recommends visiting the night market by the river. She even assisted me in placing an order on Taobao when I was unfamiliar with the process. When I was bitten by a bug, she kindly sprayed a soothing liquid on my arm. The hotel offers delicious home-cooked meals, and Ms. Ding and her staff are incredibly friendly and helpful. The service is exceptional, and the hotel provides a great place to stay. My room had a stunning view of the mountains, and the top floor of the hotel offers an even more breathtaking view.
