Its a clean practical place to stay. Beds are more comfortable than most in china. The rooms and interiors are ready for an upgrade/refresh. They look a bit dated which is strange as the outside still looks fresh and modern.

Great hotel for family vacation
We had a really good stay in this hotel for our family vacation. The hotel staff are all very friendly and helpful. I will say very Shangri-la! The breakfast was very good, although not as big as in the other Shangri-la we stayed at before, such as in China World in Beijing. But it was big enough and have everything my family and I needed. The manager of the breakfast place was very professional and friendly. He took great care of my parents who are in their 80s. The Chinese restaurant in the hotel was among one of the best Chinese restaurants in any hotel that I have stayed at. Again, the staff was professional, friendly and very helpful. They made you feel right at home. We actually ended up eating most of our dinners there during our week long stay. Very convenient! We enjoyed every one of our dinners and had great family time there.

Trust me, you want to stay here
This hotel sets the bar for guest service. Before arriving I requested a taxi to pick me up at the airport, and was met outside the baggage claim. As soon as I entered the hotel an employee met me in the lobby, took me straight to my room, where we completed check-in. Buffet breakfast offered numerous Chinese and Western choices (longyan, my favorite Chinese fruit, was available), all delicious. There's a driving range behind the hotel, but I had only a few days to spend in Xi'an and wanted to see as much as possible, so didn't try it. The hotel-arranged tour of the terra cotta warriors was outstanding: Penny, our guide, gave us a wealth of information on Xi'an's history and the warriors. She made our visit to this epic archaeological site even more impressive. A truly first-class hotel in every way.

I really enjoyed Xian, I only stayed there for 3 days. Wish it would have been longer as there is so much to see. My stay in Shangri la Xian was exceptional, the customer service for check in and check out was good. The breakfast had so much options. The room was very comfortable. I definitely recommend the Shangri la Xian.

Excellent hotel. Staff was very personable. We booked a tour to the Terracotta Warriors through the hotel. Penny was or guide. She was very knowledgeable as she was a local in Xi'An. She was very kind, kept us to schedule, and took us to a wonderful Chinese lunch after. We were not going to get a guide at first but this turned out to be a blessing in disguise. Penny was wonderful and would highly recommend her for touring Xi'an and the surrounding area.

Xian makes a great weekend destination, as we saw the fabulous warriors from 200 BC, and rode a bike on top of the ancient city wall, parts of which date back to 500 AD. A five-star trip starting with this 5-star hotel.

Excellent for a one night stopover.
I checked in one evening on a flight from Shenzhen. And I checked out early the next morning to catch a flight to Tianshui. I had to stay in the hotel all evening to attend to various chores using my laptop. The hotel perfectly suited my utilitarian needs. I can't tell you anything about the area surrounding the hotel.

Rough around the edges still
Staggering incompetence at check-out. She tried to charge me for the prepaid room. Until a senior person corrected her. But then, even printing the bill took a good 10 minutes. Also, totally untrained wait staff. Never cleared the plates at breakfast -- just kept piling up on the table. Otherwise, fine! Great room. Pockets of good service.

Pleasant stay would stay there again. The area is definitely made for visitors. The Quay is filled with restaurants, but more of a chain/Disney feel that an organic district. Hotel was pleasant and clean. Some construction being done, but not too much of an impact on the stay.

Great Hotel, but location not very convenient
This is a great hotel with clean and upscale rooms. I was especially impressed by the friendliness of the hotel staff, who are also very helpful. I would have given the hotel a 5-star if it was not for its location. The hotel is located in a generic Chinese neighborhood, which is kind of dull and gray for an American's eyes. Also, you have to take a taxi to go anywhere because it is not on a subway line. Taxis can be hard to get, even with the help of the hotel staff. The real trouble is coming back to the hotel, when it could really be hard to get a taxi.

Best hotel in ALL of China!
This has to be the best hotel in ALL of China, if not in every place I've ever visited! Will return again and again! Pros: Great location Very, very attentive and well trained staff. Great breakfast buffet and restaurant Beautiful facility I might also mention that I had a medical concern while I was there. The manager overheard the conversation, called the hotel Doctor immediately and had her personally escort me to the hospital, and through the "system". What could have taken all day, took only a couple of hours. When I returned I found a personal note in our room from the manager-if he could be of any further assistance, a selection of fruit laid out for us, and a small stuffed animal on my daughter's bed. Who does that now adays? This is a great hotel and a dependable, consistent hotel chain in China!
