Shaanxi Aurum International Hotel (Bell and Drum Tower Huimin Street)

This is a fantastic hotel. Located in the center of Xi'an, close to the Bell Tower and many shopping malls and places to eat. The hotel is amazing, modern and with details of a luxury hotel. We stayed in a family room, comfortable, clean and spacious. Our stay was absolutely wonderful. Highly recommended.

Family enjoy the spacious ensuit room with comfortable beds and sofas. Old style decoration like travel back twenty years. Kids like the toys. The umbrella in the wardrobe is helpful when it rain.

I am taking 3 boys with me for a two days family trip in Xi'an. The hotel is in a prime location, walking distance to local tourism attractions in walking distance. It's next to the Shanxi province government building. The square in front of the government building has a music fountain which will blow water more then 10 stories tall. This is fantastic. The rooms are big and clean, breakfast has both eastern and western styled food which was rated the best breakfast they had in China by the 3 boys. We were trying to eat at the famous muslin street but find it too hard to enjoy due to the huge crowd even during the rain. We found a local chain food store next to the hotel is our favorite, it is called 秦晋味道. We visited the Terracotta Army and Shanxi history Museum. They are so famous that there are huge crowd. It's like trying to get on the subway during rash hours in Tokyo. But there is a hidden treasure that is much worth than the Terracotta Army. It is called Mausoleum Museum of Bronze Chariots and Horses. This one is included with the purchased tickets of Terracotta Army. Not many people go there due it is 1 KM away and there is a long walking to reach the exhibit as well. The level of technologies used are amazing. It's a shock for us. The hotel is required by the government to collect both the passport and VISA information. So be prepared. I will use this hotel again for my next trip.
