Hotel Dengan Bar di Shaanxi, China

Weekend train trek to BaoJi from Xi’an. It’s a very walkable city, and there are bikes all around. Crowne Plaza has a nice longe on the 40th Floor. It is next to a mall, and adjacent to the theater. The park nearby stretches to the historically designed walking bridge into Chencang Old Street (I suggest folk music bar next to Panda Aquarium/BaoJi Station display). Crowne has nice views and comfortable rooms. Staff is bilingual and everything is clean. Of the Crowne Plazas I have stayed in, this one is maintained well.

The employees at the reception could barely speak English but were super friendly and accommodating, which made for a great start to my journey through china. The room is super comfortable, almost Japanese style toilet with heating and the shower is also well-provided and there’s hot water, not just warm. Minibar had not just water but also tea and coke, I was pleasantly surprised! The bed was perfect to cure from jetlag;) Only the breakfast was a bit lackluster and there was only very little and low quality western food available.

We had a great time in the Novohotel, i haven't slept like a baby in a long time. Besides that, teh location was great, we didnt really have any complaints, it would be amazing if they had an indoor pool or something like that. I will definitely come here again if i visit Xi'an another time!

Great Hotel in a great location right next to a metro station. The room service was amazing. Free water is such a cheap and easy thing for a hotel but only few hotels in Europe are providing that, so I highly appreciated this service. The room was spacious and modern with USB C ports even. The only downside was that the A/C didn't work properly. When I tried to set the temperature to the lowest possible setting, the fan would just stop instead of cooling the room. The breakfast was amazing and the buffet was still fully available even when joining late. The vast variety of Western and Chinese food was astounding. The price per night is very affordable. Would recommend.

Walking distance to Mt Hua entrance. Comfortable stay. Like the water pressure in the shower. Nice view of the mountain too. Hotel also help to purchase tickets to Mt Hua.

Everything met my expectations for comfort and good service. The room was nicely furnished, very spacious, and felt peaceful and private. The hotel's location is convenient, and the whole atmosphere is pleasant and well-kept. I was especially impressed by the staff. The front desk team was very professional and took care of everything we needed. The housekeeping was also excellent—they kept the room spotlessly clean without ever being intrusive. The whole stay felt smooth and relaxed, which is exactly what you want. It’s the kind of consistent, quality experience that makes me definitely want to stay here again when I'm back in Xi'an.

We stayed at the Himalaya Hotel Xi'An only for 2 nights but would have happily stayed more. The staff were extremely helpful and polite from the moment that we arrived. The frontage is a bit quirky with a huge transformer type robot outside that continuously announced something but you couldn't hear it inside. Also the only access to the hotel was via a lift to the 5th floor through the ground floor entrance and although a bit stark was fine once we arrived at the reception. Our room was on the same floor as the reception and restaurant (5th) so was handy. We looked out onto the front which wasn't noisy at all. The room was clean and generally well equipped but it's worth noting that there wasn't a fridge or safe. The location was convenient being less than a 10 minute walk to the metro station and close to restaurants and food stalls. Make sure that you download Alipay before you arrive in China and all payments will be simple. The metro staff helped us with it as did shop assistants and even various security officials. WeChat is also useful. It was also next to the Bell tower. Xi'An Wall is easily travelled to by metro. We took local transport(metro then bus) to the Terracotta Army Museum which was interesting and fun but I'm sure that there are many tours. Just stop anyone and ask for help and they will accommodate you(translating apps help tremendously- Alipay has one too) Breakfast was a good selection too and thankfully mostly local(stay in your own country if you're going to complain). Again the staff were kind and helpful. Would definitely stay again.

Nice Boutique style hotel that gives a bed and breakfast vibe. If you have heavy luggage I recommend taking exit H from line 2 metro for the escalators. Amaps directed me to a blind alley towards the back of the hotel which was gated off. Fortunately a random local aunty kindly walked me around 2 blocks to the actual street of the hotel entrance. Staff was welcoming and helpful with any questions. They will look things up for you if you ask and send it to your WeChat. Housekeeping is done daily. Breakfast was decent and free refreshments/ beverages are provided daily which was nice!

Overall the stay was satisfactory for the price. The front desk staff were helpful, but they lacked the warmth and hospitality you would normally expect from hilton brand. The room was too warm during winter. When we asked about adjusting the temperature or turning on the air conditioning, we were told it could not be adjusted, which made sleeping uncomfortable as we were sweating during the night. We also had to change from a room with a good view because the road noise was loud from midnight until morning. Breakfast had a decent variety, but there were not many Western options available. Overall, it is acceptable for the price, but there are areas that could be improved.

A real gem in China! Friendly staff, who were very happy to help with tickets for attractions and shows, as well as provide everything you need for a comfortable stay. The hotel itself is well located for everything and for anything further afield, Xi'an's Didis are inexpensive and the drivers are generally super friendly and accommodating. Breakfast selections were fine, everything is cooked to order, which we all liked as usual hotel buffets tend to be less fresh and hot. The hotel was quirky and interesting, and my children really enjoyed their time at the cat cafe. All in all, a fantastic stay in a comfortable, well appointed and very reasonably priced hotel.
