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.

The hotel staff were attentive and meticulous; communication via WeChat was smooth whenever we had questions or requests. The breakfast, delivered to our room in a charming, antique-style two-tiered wooden box, was a particular highlight, and the 'saorou' noodles were quite memorable. The high-altitude pool and the Clock Tower viewing platform offer unique perspectives of the ancient city. The overall ambiance of the hotel is relaxed and distinctive, and the parting gift was a delightful touch.

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!

The place is right in Muslim quarters. It can get a bit noisy at night but we were ok with that. The service was good and even helped with a few recommendations. The only downside is the water heater which take a while to heat because there are 4 of us taking bath. Highly recommend for those food lovers. 😝🤩

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 😍

The transportation is super convenient; the owner personally picked us up and dropped us off at both the high-speed train station and scenic spots. The room was also very spacious with good facilities. The food ordered at the B&B was delicious, and ordering takeout was also very easy. The only downside was that the sunrise was a bit shy, peeking out only partially.

Location is great, not a huge fan of staff smoking at reception area. Unfortunately the doof doof music from several live venues out the front made it terrible. Nearly 2am on weekend and midnight on weekday. It literally thumped through the bed and I was lucky to get a couple of hours sleep even with ear plugs and playing music on a speaker. Unless you can sleep through anything I'd recommend finding something else in the area

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.

The hostess was incredibly warm and thoughtful. She drove us to and from the train station in her shuttle and dropped us off right at the scenic area entrance. She also helped us plan our hiking route and purchase the most suitable ticket package. The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable, with beautiful views outside the window. The guesthouse is very close to the scenic area, and the large terrace is stunning. The food at the guesthouse was delicious, generously portioned, and well-priced. Highly recommended!
