Where to Stay in Xi'an, Xi'an Hotels

Xi’an was the forerunner of cultural developments in China and one of the oldest civilizations in the world next to Cairo, Athens, and Rome. The city remains ancient in form with buildings, artifacts, and historical sites still intact. Tourism boosts with the discovery of Terracota Warriors in 1974 followed by the preservations of other attractions such as the City Wall. With the flock of tourists coming in and out every year, it is no wonder that tourism became the leading industry in Xi’an. The city greatly improved its facilities and accommodations throughout the years.

Xi’an is enveloped by a City Wall and it is practically helpful in marking destinations and directions. You may opt to stay outside the city wall but most people prefer to choose within the wall. Let us explore the world of hotels inside the box… Starting off with the Bell Tower, the central attraction in Xi’an where four streets are parted in North, South, East, and West directions. The Bell Tower area is lined with local and hole-in-the-wall restaurants mixed with modern café shops such as Starbucks. The Drum Tower, a Muslim heritage site, and Airport Shuttle Bus Station are also located nearby. Strolling along the area gives you a nostalgic feeling and somehow sets you into a romantic mood. Sustain the excitement by staying in the following hotels:
