Top hotels in Baqiao
Sheraton Xi'An Chanba
HUALUXE Xi an Chanba by IHG
Dhawa Xi'an Chanba
El hotel esta muy bien, limpieza correcta, sin ruido y la habitación estaba totalmente equipada. La parte negativa sería la poca variedad de comida en el buffete del hotel y la distancia del hotel a cualquier lugar de Xi'an (imprescindible tener que usar DiDi o coger un taxi).

A little on the edge of the city but a very quiet area. Very beautiful view from my widow. Breakfast was great and the staff was wonderful!
