Xi'an! A budget-friendly hotel worth a second visit! It's so good!
Explore Xi'an Hilton: A perfect blend of ancient charm and comfort
I recently stayed at Xi'an Hilton Hotel and had an amazing experience, so I have to share it with you! As a person from southern Shanxi, I felt like I was back in my comfort zone, which was a pleasant surprise!
📍Unparalleled location
The hotel is located in the Xi'an City Wall Scenic Area, a 5A scenic area in Xi'an, where you can immerse yourself in the ancient charm of the Tang Dynasty. It's only a 5-minute walk from the Ming City Wall, and only a 10-minute drive to the Bell Tower, Drum Tower, Giant Wild Goose Pagoda, the famous Muslim Quarter, and the Shaanxi History Museum, which is very difficult to book. The hotel is conveniently located opposite a street full of local snacks, where you can also enjoy performances such as Qinqiang Opera and shadow puppetry. The hotel is a step away from the scenic area, saving you a lot of travel time and greatly enhancing your travel experience.
🏛️Unique design style
The entire hotel is full of elements from the Tang and Qin dynasties, making it the most distinctive Hilton hotel I've ever stayed in. Murals, sculptures, carriages, clay sculptures, chain mail... Ancient elements can be seen everywhere, and the hotel is full of ancient charm. Among all the Hilton hotels in Xi'an, this one has the most distinctive ancient style.
🏘️Spacious and comfortable room layout
The rooms start at 43 square meters and are spacious. Although the rooms are not in the popular minimalist style, the Tang Sancai ornaments and ancient paintings are full of the traces of time, which complement the temperament of Xi'an, an ancient city. The room is equipped with a large bathtub, a 2-meter bed with a King Koil mattress, which is super comfortable to sleep on and allows you to get a good rest.
🛌High-quality supplies and facilities
The hotel provides branded bath products. Although they are in large bottles and cannot be taken away, the quality is guaranteed. The rooms are well maintained. Although the hotel opened in 2011 and may be a bit old, the northern climate advantage means that the rooms are not as prone to mildew as in the south, giving an overall impression of a calm and atmospheric "old money" style. The soundproofing is good, providing a quiet environment for rest, and the hygiene is also well done, with the rooms being clean and tidy.
🍽️Rich and varied food experience
1. Breakfast feast: The breakfast is surprisingly rich, with not only the usual fried eggs, sausages, and bread, but also various Xi'an specialties, such as beef in water basin, meatball soup, cold noodles (with yellow mustard), biangbiang noodles, oil tea (salty), roujiamo, zenggao, oil cake, sugar cake, etc. The beef in water basin is especially delicious, with every bite full of rich local flavor.
2. Delicious Chinese restaurant: The hotel's Chinese restaurant offers a wide variety of dishes, combining Shaanxi cuisine and Cantonese cuisine, with exquisite presentation, making it perfect for entertaining guests. Although the price is relatively high, the quality of the ingredients and cooking is worth the price.
💗Other tips
1. Be sure to get up early to enjoy the hotel's breakfast and taste a variety of authentic Xi'an snacks to start a day full of energy.
2. There are many attractions around the hotel, so you can plan your itinerary in advance to make full use of the hotel's excellent location.
3. Although the hotel's bath products cannot be taken away, they are of good quality and can be enjoyed during your stay.
In short, Xi'an Hilton Hotel is excellent in terms of location, style, food, and accommodation experience. I highly recommend this hotel when you travel to Xi'an, and I'm sure you'll love it!
