Hotels in Baqiao, Xi'an

Nestled in a remote corner of the avaunt-garde Banpo International Art District, this unique and comfortable hotel is not out of place. Amongst the shops lie gem after gem of eclectic delight. Once inside the hotel, it is easy to see that it was designed with the surrounding artistic environment in mind. As the name of the hotel indicates, I found myself transported back to an earlier time upon setting foot in the lobby. I wanted to jump on one of the antique, 1940s, motorcycles and ride into the Chinese countryside. The vintage Harley Davidson especially enthralled my fancy. From the inviting minimalist features in the lobby to the spiral staircase that led to nowhere, we felt like time travelers. Our first interaction with the friendly staff set the tone for our entire stay, friendly and accommodating. We simply could not have asked for better service and treatment. One extremely friendly staff member was Phoenix. We felt that she was assigned to make our stay more enjoyable due to the fact that she spoke fluent English, but it is just as likely that this is just her level of service. There was no whim that did not become her command. She was so attentive. Honestly, I have never experience this level of accommodation. We chose the loft room, and either the first floor or the loft would have been perfect. The two together made it a five star stay. Two king-sized beds, plenty of couches and chairs to lounge around on, a working desk, a rainforest shower, and a tub big enough for two people, was more than we needed. The Walnut Tree restaurant in the hotel, named because there has been a walnut tree in the compound since before the hotel’s and restaurant’s inception, has some of the best food in Xian. And it is vegetarian and vegan friendly, a rarity in this city. The dishes were just as alluring and tantalizing to the taste buds as the art work in the district to the eyes. If you can only stay in one hotel while visiting Xian, this is the one you want to choose.

Clean and comfortable.

Location, staff, WiFi, we were allowed to store our luggage after check out

Easy , convenient

Staff tried to help address my needs as far as possible. The room had smell of lingering cigerette smoke, staff tried to help change a new room for me, but it was too much of a hassle subsequently and I did not request for it. The free laundry service was excellent. I love the location: it was within 5-10 minutes of walk away from the metro station which served Line 4 and Line 6.

Reception staff were friendly. Our room (double room 2x beds) was clean and spacious. Fit 4x adults comfortably. Generous sized beds, modern bathroom features.
