Comfortable stay at Xi'an
Pros:

The room and the hotel were very comfortable. The staff was also very helpful.

Cons:

The location was a bit away from all the attractions, but that said, it was just a short cab ride to mostly everything.

100% Empfehlenswert
Pros:

Das Hotel war der Hammer. Wir hatten eine Junior Suite und das Zimmer war unglaublich. Ich finde hier auch das Preis Leistungsverhältnis absolut top. Das Frühstück war im Preis mit drin und war unglaublich gut. Die Auswahl war riesig, egal auf was man Hunger hatte, man hat es bekommen. Von traditionellen frisch gekochten chinesischen Köstlichkeiten bis hin zu knusprigen Waffeln, Sushi,frisches Obst usw., absolut perfekt und mit einer sehr hohen Qualität. Das Hotel ist egal wohin man schaut, super sauber und sehr schön und hochwertig eingerichtet. Wir kommen gerne wieder

Cons:

Es gibt nicht zu bemängeln, es war alles top

De doorman Andy die perfect Engels sprak en goede tips gaf! Hij was ontzettend attent en meedenkend. In tegenstelling tot andere werknemers in het hotel was hij goed verstaanbaar en zeer behulpzaam.

Pros:

Персонал молодцы.. Питание отличное. Расположение очень удачное и до метро и для прогулок. Хороший бассейн.
Поздравление на ДР отдельная благодарность.

Cons:

Мы жили в 3ем в 2ух комнатном номере. Однако 3 суток из 4 нам приносили всего на двоих - воду, полотенца и тд. Просьба быть внимательнее.

Pros:

The “single bed” in the family suites is just a hard, wooden additional bed added to the room. Maybe would be okay for a child but very uncomfortable and definitely not suitable for an adult

是個讓人感到舒服和服務良好的飯店!不過,房間品質不一,且對顧客訂的房間服務不夠清楚!有些可惜!
Pros:

感覺住在很高級的飯店中!

Cons:

床有些不舒服!感覺應該換床墊了!還有廁所洗手台周邊有許多發黃和坑洞,會讓人覺得很髒!

Sofitel in Xi'an used to be a star location and hotel, just like most Sofitel hotels which I love. But sadly it is n
Pros:

The location is very nice. In the center of Xi'an with easy access to the wall gates, the bell tower and a lot of tasty restaurants.

Cons:

The lack of service and a list of bad experiences. 1. Arrived in my room to a clogged toilet from a previous guest, having to wait 1.30 for service after multiple calls. 2. Had a bathroom that was flooded everytime I toke a shower and the damage was visible everywhere on the walls with mold in the grime. 3. A nail sticking out of the floor between the bathroom and room that penetrated my foot which started bleeding heavily. 4. Being locked out of my toom twice in a 3 night stay (just at once both cards didn't work). And after all this, I ended up complaining and the staff repsonse was the following: Sorry please come back to us and we will make your next stay better, nothing further.
The spa is also well bellow par, smells and is rated by the government as a dirty establishment 😔.

One night in Xi'an
Pros:

This hotel has a lot of potential, but it still has room for improvement. The staff are fantastic—exceptionally kind, helpful, and always willing to assist—and they speak excellent English. The breakfast is very good, although allergen information is not provided, which is something I would expect from a hotel in the Accor chain.

The area is very quiet, located on the outskirts of the city, yet the city center can still be reached comfortably on foot. The nearest metro station is only about a 5-minute walk away, making it easy to reach the trains stations. It is also in a very convenient location for booking a DiDi ride to visit the Terracotta Army.

One thing to note is that the hotel can be a bit difficult to find using navigation apps, as directions are not always clear. It is worth contacting the hotel in advance and asking for detailed instructions on how to reach the property.

Our room was very spacious, but unfortunately, that is where the positives end.

Cons:

The room is quite dated, and the ceilings are low—not only in the room itself but throughout the entire guest-room wing. This is a shame because the lobby is spacious, bright, and gives a much better first impression.

Overall, I expected much more from a Sofitel. The room felt somewhat claustrophobic, dark, and not particularly comfortable. That said, it was clean, and the bathroom was large, bright, and well maintained.
