I made the right choice to stay at this hotel in Xi'an! I will come again next time.
Courtyard by Marriott Xi'an Blue Harbor
The public area is very well designed, and it is a great place to take photos, but I didn't have time to do so.
The suite is very spacious, with a simple but cozy design.
The panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows offer a great view, and the bathtub is very clean. I had a nice bath and a good sleep. The mattress is so comfortable that I will come again just for it.
The room is equipped with fruits, nuts, and snacks. Although simple, they are well matched.
Surprisingly, there is an electric iron in the closet, and the room is equipped with an e-book. Listening to it before sleep is very helpful for sleep.
The hotel is next to the famous Blue Harbor Wanbang Bookstore, a must-visit place. But I didn't have time to visit it due to my tight schedule. I will definitely visit it next time.
This is a great choice for your trip!
Room: The room is marked as 103 square meters, but it doesn't feel that big. There are two bathrooms, one of which is only for the toilet, a separate living room, and a cloakroom. The cloakroom is well designed, but the only drawback is that there is no full-length mirror. The toiletries are small packages of the Spanish brand Bvlgari (the hotel is a Spanish brand). The bed is hard, but not uncomfortable, and there are multiple pillow options. The living room has a three-seater sofa, which is big enough for an adult to sleep on. There is a coffee machine at the bar. The master bathroom has a separate makeup mirror with lights. The bathtub and shower are together, and there is a curtain between the shower and the bedroom to avoid embarrassment. The curtains are electric.
Lounge: The lounge environment is good, and there are few people. There are few vegetables, only salad, and the food is mainly meat, fried food, and sushi. The food is not picky and filling, and the taste is okay. There are alcoholic and soft drinks, but we didn't try the alcohol. The lounge service is polite and standard.
Breakfast: The room includes breakfast for two. Our child is 1.46 meters tall, so we had to pay the full breakfast fee (CNY 168). The breakfast is very good and rich, with both Chinese and Western options. Local snacks include Zhen cake, roujiamo, lamb paomo, cold noodles, and fermented glutinous rice, all of which taste good. Western options include various breads, cheeses, salads, salmon, and ice cream. In addition, there is a small children's play area in the breakfast room, which frees up parents.
Overall evaluation: The facilities are well maintained, and the decoration style is still very good. The service is indeed as rumored, a bit lacking, but the core foundation is good, which can slightly make up for the lack of service. The food is good, especially breakfast, which is rich in variety and tastes good. The hotel accommodation price is not high during the National Day holiday, and the cost performance is high. Overall recommended.
