Ulasan Sofitel Legend People's Grand Hotel Xian

+ : - The hotel boasts a legendary history, and I'm delighted that it is now open to the public, allowing us to experience the distinguished hospitality once reserved for government guests of the city. - Service exceptional beyond exceptional. - Bedroom, living room, and walk-in closet are well decorated and comfortable. The beautiful marble bathroom. - Fitness is well equipped and pool is temperature control. So so : - Bed is tough and blanket is thin. Not so comfortable.

Hotel location is fine but hotel is quite dated. Xi’an in general hotel standard isn’t high.

I like the museum and the garden most. hotel room is spacious. Great breakfast. The only fall back for me is that it's not close to subway station of either line 4 or line 5 - it will unbearable to walk 12-15 mins under the burning sun in the summer between 10am and 4pm. but if you take Didi all the time then it's fine.

Fantastic building, brilliant design and great service

The Sofitel Legend is above standard in all respects: perfectly positioned yet wonderfully quiet, spotlessly clean and cozy despite the generous dimension. We would like to praise Tommy and Hattie for organizing the perfect stay for us. From airport pick-up and drop-off to booking of all possible attractions they went the extra mile to make it a memorable stay. We will be back soon L and R

During my extensive global travels, I’ve had the privilege of experiencing numerous luxury hotels, and I must say, the Sofitel Legend Hotel in Xi’an stands out as a truly remarkable gem. Its enchanting façade, reminiscent of a meticulously crafted petit château, transports guests to a world of mystique and elegance. The ambiance created by the hotel is nothing short of a sensory delight, gracing each moment with a unique touch of beauty and indulgence. The meticulously designed garden, a picturesque masterpiece, feels like stepping into a fragrant dream. Meandering through lush green lawns, I found solace in the tranquility of nature, as if time itself stood still for my enjoyment. This distinctive environment allowed me to rediscover a sense of inner serenity during my brief stay. The culinary experiences at the hotel are undoubtedly a highlight, with a sumptuous and diverse breakfast selection as well as exquisite afternoon tea offerings. Whether indulging in French classics or savoring local delights, each dish is a symphony of flavors that tantalize the palate. While the service, on occasion, may not have been flawless, I commend the hotel’s proactive approach in swiftly addressing feedback, demonstrating a genuine commitment to continuous improvement and guest satisfaction. The presence of a well-stocked Mini Bar in the room further elevated my stay, providing a range of snacks and beverages that added convenience and comfort to my leisure moments. I must take this opportunity to commend the three dedicated butlers, Eric, Mandy, and Flora. Their professionalism and warm hospitality redefine the concept of “home away from home.” Always greeted with a smile, they patiently attended to my inquiries, even offering invaluable travel insights that enriched my exploration of the city. In summary, the Sofitel Legend Hotel in Xi’an has left an indelible mark on my memory, crafting an unforgettable experience. As a seasoned connoisseur of luxury accommodations, I confidently place this hotel among the finest I’ve encountered. Its charming French-inspired façade, harmonious garden landscape, and unforgettable culinary journey have etched a profound impression in my heart. This is a journey I will cherish for years to come.

The hotel is fabulous. The staff are friendly and helpful. The hotel was immaculately clean and the facilities are excellent. Very pleased with our stay here. I have stayed in many hotels in China and around the world and this was very special indeed. I would wholeheartedly recommend this hotel to anyone wishing to stay in Xi’an.

The two stars on service, one for concierge one for the hotel bar’s waitress (Rose 游娜，a trainee but who offered us excellent service , made up for other issue we felt being unfairly treated). The itself, being a historical building and all, looks magnificent. Even though the decor may seem dated, but inside our room was comfortable, and cosy, we got nothing to complain. Concierge would accept our deliveries and helped with luggage and all, again, nothing to complain. BUT, on the second day, the hotel housekeeping mistakenly took a huge bagful of our travel stuff ( including snacks, mini packed laundry detergents, biscuits, fruits, alcohol wipes , packed tissues etc), they simply throw away as garbage. We deliberately left it in a corner so it WONT be mistaken as rubbish. We did NOT leave it next to the bin, and we HAVE already taken out our takeaway boxes. Because we did not at all expect this to happen at a five star hotel , we did not realise it was missing until the next morning when we were getting ready to leave for train station. At this point, when we called, the hotel told us, housekeeping merely thrown out two EMPTY takeaway boxes, that was NOT true! They could confirm it from surveillance camera that it’s s about heavy yellow bag been taken out instead of two empty takeaway boxes. Yes, perhaps it’s not valuable, it’s not a gold chain or a camera, but it’s something very handy to our long journey , and their initial response was not acceptable. We are also not sure what other small things we have left inside the bag ( Because we didn’t think someone will throw it out!!!!). It was obvious it’s not a bag of garbage, if they were not sure why not keep it until we are back and ask? In all the years staying in any international five star hotel chains, we’ve never had to deal with such situation … And one more thing, made us uncomfortable, was before we depart we decided to have a drink in the hotel bar. I asked the bar staff for two Proseccos, she replied if it’s the bubbly free drink being offer upon check in. I spent about 60rmb for two sips, and only to find out it was offer for free which we never been offered upon our arrival ( was nobody else just us two on the arrival night). However. After hearing my complain, the bar staff Rose was very thoughtful gave me a second pour, I still paid, but at least feeling not as mistreated. Perhaps this just the final straw on the pile. On check out, the front desk staffs were busy, no one asked how was our stay , so I did not tell them our experience as above, I had only this one chanel to let out. Legend, not so legend. 传奇酒店让我期待已久，毕竟全球六家，而且在西安的历史建筑内，所以完全没有考虑其他酒店，哪怕我本身几乎不住索菲特，也没有用过accor的loyalty program。 酒店所在建筑的确很棒，我很喜欢，里面的设施也都达到需求。礼宾部前台都很有礼貌，让人觉得很帮助。但是我遇到了两件事，让我觉得以后恐怕不会回来。 1，我们有一个旅途中用的袋子（黄色美团超市袋，里面是一个大的绿色纸袋，因为美团袋子不怕脏放在火车站火车上地上都不担心弄脏，到家了直接拿下来丢掉即可）。里面放了各种小零食，全部可以肉眼看到没有拆开，还有路上用的小包纸巾，ole买的小包酒精湿纸巾，还有小号垃圾袋，以及旅行装洗洁精等。我们把它放在书桌边上的一个墙角，特地放得离垃圾桶区域远一些（房间也没有很多空间放东西我们也不能当路中间）。在我们用完了外卖以及快递后，按照酒店茶几上放的小牌子的要求，打电话请客房部也来收走了。我们理解古建筑立面万一染上污渍会比较难清理。 结果我们离开了一个白天，回来也没特意检查，毕竟这是我们住的地方，我也不想一天到晚防贼一样，也没有对自己的物品拍照。到了第二天我们准备收拾东西离开酒店了，发现这个袋子不见了，这是一个至少有8-10斤左右的袋子，不会轻易错过，于是我们致电酒店管家，在插叙后，告知的确丢掉，但就是一包里面两个空外卖盒… 这是让我最生气和不愿意接受的部分，不小心处理了，不能理解也得理解，但是总不能说瞎话，cctv调出来，我来看看这位清理人员拎出来的是什么东西？？？ 随便看一眼就看到里面的东西都是没有吃过没有用过，就算不确定我也能理解，为什么不放半天等客人回来了确认一下？这里面没有任何异味和汁水，存放一下并不会妨碍你们的酒店。或许对酒店来说，都是些不值钱的东西，没了就没了，有什么好抱怨的，但是将心比心，东西的价值很多时候不在意实际价钱的高低。我们在外面旅行，这些东西是我们的需求，不是钱能买的。 第二个点，我们在离店前，去酒店的酒吧喝一杯，我问吧台服务员点起泡酒（之前我在房间点过，意大利起泡酒），她问我是不是入住时候免费送的起泡酒，我当时就愣了，入住的时候，没有任何人offer我们任何到店饮品。而且到店时就我们俩没有别的客人（所以不是因为太忙）。我拿着一小杯我要付钱别人免费的起泡酒加上被丢了东西，心里不是滋味，不患寡而患不均。是，说我小气，60多一杯的酒在这儿逼逼… 我朋友点了个咖啡，我看到旁边来了另外两个客人，其中一位和一个服务员说，我上次来你们也送的哦，别忘了哦，服务员轻声说知道知道。之间随她的咖啡一起来的，是一份曲奇饼干… 看这个我们桌上孤零零的饮品，心里又是一根稻草压上去。 可能吧台一位员工看到了这个问题，她还是个实习生，也知道了我关于免费不免费起泡酒的不满，于是主动给我续了一杯酒，还拿了饼干（虽然我们也没有吃）、但是心里好受了很多。人真是奇怪的动物（我自己），确实这些都是小东西小细节不值钱可能，但是感觉不公平那就像损失了一个亿，同样是客人为什么没有标准化的服务流程，需要客人去“哭奶喝”，… 逼着大家小气。我不知道这个酒店开了多少时间，但是与传奇这个品牌相比，远远还做的不够。希望传奇品牌有的不紧是历史人物们踏足过的辉煌， 更能够创造属于自己新的传奇。

The front desk staff should be more helpful; I really need a simple help to activate my WeChat but they do not want to help - finally I has to ask from other hotel guest.

It’s amazing experience, thanks.

Very comfortable hotel room, great staff!

Nice～Good！～

傳奇給了我驚喜。從幾個方面談談感受: 1.服務:管家式，倒也沒有加微信，其實這樣也不錯。房間電話一鍵可溝通，所有事項管家都可以處理。因為是孩子生日，升級了房間，還送了個6寸蛋糕，好看又好吃，很感謝！ 2.房間:外觀有歷史感，酒店內部保養得很好，房間內細節一點看不出裝修很久了。泡澡的時候可以看鏡子中暗藏的電視，不要錯過。拍了很多照片，文字就不多説了。 3.餐飲:因為兵馬俑回來太堵沒趕上“歡樂時光”，管家給打包了一些送到房間，很貼心。早餐半自助，其實自助的部分內容並不比正常自助早餐遜色，增加的點餐中西式都有，非常精緻，也拍了照片給大家參考。 4.位置:省政府隔壁，司機説是西安最安全的酒店。離中山門和永興坊很久，永興坊踩雷不斷，其實反而是附近的當地小吃店味道好也不貴。 5.套餐:好幾項也沒用上，不過，驚鴻旅拍不錯，拍攝體驗好，出片效果不錯 [愛心][愛心]

住到目前為止服務最好的酒店，位置不用説了，就在人民政府裏面，安全性完全不用考慮。剛到酒店門口，前台就奔下樓梯幫忙開車門拿行李，中午到了酒店很驚喜的馬上有空房給了房卡入住，辦理期間咖啡和茶一樣不少。早餐有自助和點單，點單的華夫餅和班尼克蛋幾乎成了每天必點，麪條也是非常好吃，餐廳不大但服務相當好。酒店房間設施因為最近一次是2014年裝修的，所以有的東西肯定有破損，但這些破損完全可以用完美的服務來抵消。外賣、快遞都直接幫忙送上來，客房打掃完了每天都會準備小點心在床頭，還幫小朋友削鉛筆，也太細節了！！！下次再來西安絕對不會考慮其他酒店了，衹住傳奇索菲特。
