I have lived and stayed at several properties managed by Ascott including Somerset and Citadines and this is why I chose this property. It is not of the same standard of the others worldwide. Rooms are basic - the room was wrong on booking in. What really annoyed me was that reception would not assist in getting a taxi to... More

I really enjoyed my stay here. The hotel is only a block from the Drum Tower and the old Muslim Quarter so it is no problem finding ways to entertain yourself in the evening. The room was big and the shower was heaven. (I had been staying in a place in Beijing with horrible plumbing, so a hot shower was... More

I stayed for 2 nights with my teenage son. The room was huge and had a divider which effectively made it into a 2 room suite. Although we didn't use the kitchenette, it was well equipped with clean and modern utensils. The free Wifi was fast and the large LCD TV had a good range of English speaking cable including... More

I found this property after being disappointed by the Bell Tower Hotel. I had stayed at the property several years ago, but it was arranged for me and I really was not that impressed. When I needed to leave the other property, I thought I would give it a chance. Wow, what a great surprise. First I was welcomed by... More

We stayed at the Citadines Central Xian for only one night at April 2012. We were very much impressed by the sleek modern clean design of the room. There is a mini kitchen with all complete equipments for one to cook with. The big LCD TV can slide from the living room to the bedroom. electrical sockets are numerous for... More

This hotel was great,right in the centre of the old town.Walk to most places. More

I wasn't sure after reading some negative reviews about booking here, but the location was perfect - the Drum Tower, Bell Tower and Muslim Quarter were a 5 minute walk away, and the South Gate of the city wall (where you can rent touring bikes) was a 10 minute walk. You couldn't ask for a better location just one block... More

The hotel itself was very good - rooms were big, housekeeping good, room well equipped with tea and coffee facilities, breakfast which was included was okay, and I found service to be good as well. The only negative is that the taxi they booked to take us to the hotel was dodgy. His meter jumped by 3.9 rmb rather than... More

This was the third hotel in Xi'an that I had tried. Overall, this was probably the best value for money (the other hotels were Sofitel and Shangri-la Golden Flower). The location was also the best among the three. It was a short walk to the Drum and Bell Towers, the Muslim Quarter, as well as an assortment of shops and... More
