Excellent Experience at Dajing Castle Hotel

We had an amazing stay at Dajing Castle. The staff was incredibly kind, and Miss Vivian was absolutely wonderful. She explained everything in detail, helped us arrange a taxi, and was extremely friendly and attentive throughout our stay. Her warmth felt truly genuine, and we deeply appreciate her dedication.

The hotel itself has a classic charm, with a cozy atmosphere that made us feel comfortable right away. The room was clean, warm, and equipped with both heating and air conditioning, which made everything even more pleasant. The location couldn’t be better,uper convenient, and the view is beautiful.

Everyone at the hotel was very friendly, but we especially want to thank Vivian for making our stay unforgettable. I would love to come back to this hotel again.

But food wise, thats hard to find without walking in early morning. Shopping centre food court dont open until 10am. Definitely value for money.

The Grand Park Xi’an is very well located in view of the historic South Gate of the old city wall. Our room overlooked the large plaza/traffic circle in front of the gate. There was always something new happening there, from piped music, to actors in period costumes, to fountains and lights. That was fun for us, but if you are sensitive to noise, bring earplugs or ask for a room off the plaza; the windows are single pane. The Muslim Quarter is a relatively short walk and the subway #2 line entrance is right across the street. The bathroom could use an upgrade, and the breakfast buffet included a large variety of options to cater international tastes, but overall was ‘meh’, but the location was excellent and the staff were friendly and helpful, hence the 5-star rating. I would stay there again.

Out of all the hotels I stayed at in China this one felt the most dated. Still had good sized rooms that were clean and very conveniently located though. Most staff spoke good English and those that didn't would take you to those who did. Staff also had great public transport knowledge which was helpful for going to see the terracotta warriors as my planned route was changed due to construction. The only downside was that there is construction right next to the hotel at present which would start at 8am and not finish until 11pm which was not ideal but i'm sure this will finish soon.

The room was large and spacious and clean. The location is excellent within walking distance to several shopping malls nearby and to the South Gate. The subway exit is just outside the hotel entrance and it is only 1 stop away from the Bell Tower station or a 15 minutes walk to it.
The concierge staff was excellent and helpful. Gave much useful tips on where to go and eat. Even booked the Shaanxi Museum tickets for us and called for taxis or private hire cars when taxis are not available. It helps if you speak a bit of Chinese. Enjoyed my stay there.

Reception are a bit dismissive especially when you start speaking English they immediately look towards the manager in charge.

Hotel also seems really cheap-skate as there were notes in the room saying that if we wanted to take some items we have to pay for it e.g. laundry bag, cups etc..Our room was facing the back where there is a construction site, beware: they start working late at night c. 10pm!

The Grand Park Xian is one of the longest history hotel in Xian. It was used to be the best hotel in this city. However, as this hotel has the best location than any of others ever, it became the excuse for Grand Park not to work hard. The rooms and facilities are very old and haven’t been upgreated for more than 15 years. some of their reception staffs don’t work professional. They only offer very simpl breakfast. Overall, I can’t believe how this hotel is 5 star. And why the room price is very high? There are lots of things they can improve and make this hotel better.

A big hotel in a desirable location

We stayed in this hotel for five days. Overall, our experience was good. The hotel is located in a desirable location, just outside the main gate of the old city wall. The hotel is in downtown area. Many interesting places are just within a walking distance. Tours within and outside downtown area can be arranged by the hotel or a tour agency. Most buildings in Xi'an are beautiful and quite unique.

Some downsides include that the hotel does not have a swimming pool although its gym facilities are very good. Also, noise level from the music on the street outside is excessive, and it often lasts beyond midnight everyday. We complained to the hotel and said the city hall should ban any loud music on the street after 10:00 pm.

They are over priced and photos are miss leading. And I was told I would have an upgrade, I think they meant they would put me on a higher floor. My suggestion is you lower your price to match what you receive. The old saying goes fool me once shame on you. Fool me twice shame on me. There won't be a third time.

Very good value for money hotel, good facilities, internet speed is one of the fastest we have seen. we are pure vegetarians, and emailed before arrival for our food requirements. We booked a club room. After check in, the head chef was waiting for us to brief us of what they offer to us, as we are pure indian vegetarians. He organized for everyday of our stay, readily freshly prepared assorted breakfast food. And as we had booked a club room, every evening, vegetarian snacks and preparations was ready for us, and as the quantity and variety was so much that we did not have to order our dinner food. And all this at no extra cost to us, except for us being booked for a club room.
