An Insider's Take
'Step into living history at this grand dame hotel, where French elegance meets ancient Chinese culture in the heart of Xi'an's historic district.' What's Special? This legendary hotel occupies a beautifully restored 1953 building that once hosted Chairman Mao and international dignitaries. The property seamlessly blends European luxury with traditional Chinese architecture, featuring hand-painted silk wallpapers, antique furnishings, and a stunning central courtyard. You're literally steps away from the ancient City Wall and the vibrant Muslim Quarter.
WhatAHotel! Pro-Tip: Book a Heritage Room for original architectural details like high ceilings and period moldings, plus request a wake-up call at dawn to catch the breathtaking sunrise over Xi'an's ancient cityscape from the upper floors.
Don't Miss The hotel's proximity to the Bell Tower (5-minute walk) and the famous Terracotta Army (45 minutes by car). Dine at the rooftop restaurant for panoramic views of the illuminated City Wall at night, and explore the bustling Muslim Quarter's street food scene right outside your door.
