The Ritz-Carlton, Xi'an. . The entrance is directly opposite the runway, which is the so-called cloakroom. I think it would be better to make it open without a cabinet door. When the double-opening large cabinet door is opened, the road is blocked and the luggage cannot be pulled out. There are two luggage racks in the two cabinets. It seems to be enough, but when you put the box on it, you can't close the door. At this time, you can't run, you have to use a drill. And it's so far from the bedroom, what's the value of this cloakroom? . The other runway on the left leads to the bathroom and bedroom. The cloakroom should generally be placed between the bedroom and the bathroom as a transition, right? This dynamic line is unreasonable. The main bathroom space is relatively cramped, with double basins, built-in bathtubs, built-in bathtubs, hardware, showers and toilets are generally felt now, but considering that the hotel opened in 2019, it is understandable. But the biggest problem is that the bathroom door and the toilet door are fighting, only one of the two can be opened! So it's hard to go to the toilet. . The bed is placed in a recessed area, which feels a bit stuffy. Unlike ordinary rooms, there is no bed end stool. Looking at the picture, there is a large area on the left side of the bed, which is a big white wall, nothing, it is completely useless space! There is no place to take off clothes, put it on the sofa? It's far away, and it's an office area. I think this space really needs to be used. Putting a sofa or even a bench will be much better. This is also a reason why the comfort is obviously not as good as the basic room. . The guest/work area is basically the same as the ordinary room configuration, there is nothing to say, this kind of small round table code word office is really uncomfortable, I have complained too many times. . In short, it is not recommended to book this room type directly, it is better to live in a basic room. . The mini bar has 8 packs of TWG and 6 capsules, which is not bad. There is a night bed, but it is very perfunctory and does not meet the Ritz standard. Only the night bed gift was put, the quilt corner was folded, and many used things were not replenished. . The response speed of room service is also very slow, more than 20 minutes, which is unimaginable in Ritz. The room service attitude is super good, the hygiene is cleaned very quickly and cleanly. I went swimming the next day, the swimming pool was very clean, the depth was all 1.2m, and the hygiene of the changing room was very good. The gym is fully equipped and almost no one, but it's too tired to play, so I didn't experience it. I ordered a supper in the room. Qishan whistle noodles are super delicious, the quantity is large, 108 a bowl. The ice cream is also delicious, raspberry with caramel crisp, the taste is great🌟 The breakfast is mediocre, the oil-splashed noodles recommended by everyone are average, and the taste of a thousand people is different🦦

Of course, this stay included club access. The club lounge is incredibly spacious. ...But surprisingly, there was no one there. It's the perfect environment for those looking for quiet relaxation. When you think of Xi'an, you think of the Terracotta Warriors. It's about an hour's taxi ride from the hotel, costing around 3,000 yen. It's a more accessible location than I thought. All the meals at the hotel are absolutely delicious. I was once again reminded that "the Ritz in China excels in food." The building is new, and the rooms are very clean. The space is modern and sophisticated, and while it doesn't have the grandeur of a European hotel, it's very contemporary. I was upgraded to a one-bedroom club suite again this time. ✨ The two bathrooms are a nice touch. The comfort, including the hospitality of the staff, is as you'd expect from the Ritz. This hotel was a great place to enjoy both sightseeing and a hotel stay.

Jet lag after returning home was quite unbearable, so I decided to relax at 🌰staycation. Overall, the experience was very good. Considering everything, it definitely deserves to be ranked as one of Xi'an's Top 1 hotels. It's more suitable for business travel than the W, and the service is slightly better. However, the W might be more suitable for those seeking a richer lifestyle experience. The two have different styles. 🌰 is more suitable for enjoying a quiet and comfortable environment (I haven't been to the Sofitel, so I can't compare). 1️⃣ Room Quality The toiletries and toiletries were of good quality. The toothpaste and mouthwash were Lebon, and the hairdryer was a standard Dyson. There were many pillow options, and the minibar was very well-stocked. Overall, I would give it a 9️⃣ out of 10. 2️⃣ Service & Facilities The service was very efficient; a call was answered within ten minutes. In the evening, we ate all-you-can-eat on the third floor, and the cleaning lady was very kind, turning down the bed early, cleaning the room, refilling the water, and even providing a complimentary Xi'an specialty Bingfeng drink, as well as a welcome card with English writing. I don't quite understand why it was in English. Perhaps because the room key was written in English by the butler when ordering it at night, the facilities were well-maintained. The executive king bed is on the top floor, and the room's decorations are exquisite. However, the pool and gym are too small. It seems most visitors to Xi'an are business travelers, as the pool wasn't very crowded. Overall, I'd give it 8 stars. 3️⃣ Dining The breakfast was very abundant, with both Chinese and Western options, as well as Xi'an specialties. The executive lounge was very large with plenty of seating. The all-you-can-eat teppanyaki on the third floor was delicious, and the service was excellent. Overall, I'd give it 9 stars. 4️⃣ Hotel View The hotel view is a major drawback. If you're looking for a great city view, it's not possible. The surrounding buildings are relatively low, and the night view isn't particularly impressive. Compared to the W Hotel next to Qujiang Pool, it's slightly inferior. I'd only give it 5 stars. 5️⃣ Price & Value for Money In terms of price, Xi'an, as a new first-tier city, isn't too expensive overall. The starting price for a basic room is reasonable, about normal. The value for money is acceptable. I'd give it an 8 out of 10.

Xi'an is not a "check-in style" travel destination – it's an immersive historical experience where you measure the city walls with your feet, break up paomo with your hands, and listen to shadow puppetry with your ears. This latest 2025 guide is specifically designed to cure "superficial sightseeing" and "falling into traps." **I. Must-Visit Attractions - How to Make the Most of It?** **1. Terracotta Army (Don't just visit Pit 1!)** **Truth:** 90% of tourists crowd into Pit 1 for photos, missing the **Bronze Chariots and Horses Exhibition Hall** – that's the pinnacle of Qin Dynasty black technology (bronze gears, umbrella handle mechanisms). **Hidden Tips:** ✅ Choose the "AR enhanced version" audio guide (40 RMB); point your phone at the terracotta warrior to automatically display 3D restoration animations. ✅ The "Qin Mausoleum Cultural and Creative Store" next to the exit has mini terracotta warrior blind boxes, 30% cheaper than outside the scenic area. **2. Xi'an City Wall (Cycling requires strategy)** **Best Route:** South Gate → Hanguang Gate (1.5 hours). Mid-way, you can see a cross-section of the Sui and Tang Dynasty city walls for free at the Hanguang Gate Site Museum. **Fun Fact:** In winter, if you ascend the wall after 17:00, you can participate in the "City Wall Night Watchman" activity for free with your ticket (requires advance reservation via WeChat official account), patrolling the city in Tang-style armor. **3. Shaanxi History Museum (Ticket-snatching guide upgrade)** **New for 2025:** The basic exhibition is closed for renovation, but the temporary exhibition "Civilizations of Zhou, Qin, Han, and Tang" is even more exquisite – the Hejia Village Hoard Gold Cup and the Tang Dynasty Silver Sachet with Grape and Bird Pattern are on display together for the first time. **Secret to skipping the line:** ✅ Every Tuesday/Thursday at 20:00, "next-day returned tickets" are released; wait and snatch them up. ✅ Active military personnel and other groups exempt from reservation can enter directly via the "green channel" at the East Gate. **4. Grand Tang Dynasty Everbright City (How to avoid the crowds)** **Off-peak time:** Arrive before 18:00! After 19:00, the crowd surges by 300%. **Hidden Experiences:** ✅ Find the "Prosperous Tang Secret Box" interactive play (west side of the South Square of Big Wild Goose Pagoda) and answer questions to win a customs clearance document. ✅ Occupy a spot 30 minutes before the Tumbler Lady's performance, otherwise, you'll only see the back of her head. 🍜 **II. Food Map - Local's Secret List** | Area | Must-Try Recommendation | Pitfall Warning | |---|---|---| | Sajin Bridge | Dingjia Xiaosurou (with lotus leaf bun)
Li Weiyi Rouwan Hulutang (add egg) | Don't trust "influencer Jinggao"; the Southeast Asian one has moved | | Shuyuan Gate | Laomijia Paomo (break it yourself!)
Chunfasheng Hulutou (fatty intestine version) | Most "freshly grilled skewers" on the main street of Muslim Quarter are frozen | | Xiaonanmen | Yuanji Roujiamo (pure lean meat lovers beware)
Mahong Xiaochao Paomo | Yongxingfang's bowl-smashing wine is 5 RMB/bowl, but the wine is diluted | 💡 **Ultimate Tip:** Have breakfast at Lao Li's Hulutang (opens at 6 AM), lunch at **Ziwulu Zhangji Roujiamo (Cuihua Road branch), and dinner at Zui Chang'an (Big Wild Goose Pagoda branch) – this is a true Xi'an local's day.** 🏨 **III. Accommodation Guide - Where to Stay for Peace of Mind?** **Preferred Area:** Bell Tower - South Gate area (subway hub + convenient for night tours) **High-end:** The Ritz-Carlton, Xi'an (city wall view rooms, includes Hanfu experience) **Value for Money:** Courtyard Under the City Wall (B&B, with rooftop tea room, ¥300/night) **Avoid:** Hotels around the Big Wild Goose Pagoda have severe price gouging during peak season, and there's significant noise at night (Everbright City's speakers are deafening). 🚇 **IV. Transportation Secrets** **Airport → City Center:** ✈️ Subway Line 14 is the most reliable (7 RMB/40 minutes), don't take illegal taxis! **City Travel Essentials:** 🚌 Search "Xi'an Electronic Metro Card" on Alipay to scan and ride buses and subways. 🚲 Shared bikes have many no-parking zones; walking is recommended within the city walls. ❄️ **V. 2025 Winter Special Tips** 1. **"Song of Everlasting Sorrow" Performance:** In December, only 1 performance on weekends (19:30); be sure to purchase tickets on the official website 3 days in advance. 2. **New Activity:** "Grand Han Wonderland Dream Snow Village" (near Qujiang Pool) opens on December 29th, featuring a night light show + snow hotpot, suitable for families. 3. **Warmth Essentials:** The city wall and Terracotta Army outdoor areas are windy; wear a windproof jacket + warm patches on your waist and abdomen. 💎 **VI. Local's Advice (Hard-earned experience)** **Don't trust "low-cost one-day tours":** Terracotta Army & Muslim Quarter one-day tour for ¥99? They're all shopping stops! **Souvenir Shopping:** Buy shadow puppets at Shuyuan Gate (starting from 50 RMB), buy Shizimo (stone-baked biscuits) at Yongxingfang (vacuum-packed and can be checked in). **Cultural Easter Egg:** At Gaojia Courtyard's shadow puppet show at 19:30, actors will teach tourists how to operate the puppets – great value! 📌 **Final Thoughts:** The beauty of Xi'an lies in its morning bells and evening drums, and in a bowl of hot oil tea with fried dough twists. Slow down and live like a Tang Dynasty person for a day – only then can you truly take away the soul of this city. Save this guide, and in the winter of 2025, we'll meet under the city of Chang'an! 👉 Which experience do you want to try the most? Tell me in the comments, and I'll help you customize your route!

(I took so many beautiful photos at the Ritz-Carlton Xi'an, I can't possibly share them all!) A few days ago, I stayed at the Ritz-Carlton Xi'an, which I'd been longing to visit, for a friend's wedding. Although it's been open for a few years, it's incredibly well-maintained, feeling like it just opened. The hotel seamlessly blends the spirit of the ancient city of Xi'an with modern design, incorporating local elements throughout. I especially loved the wooden design of the rooms; they were very comfortable. Everyone says you absolutely must stay at the Ritz-Carlton and add the lounge to your itinerary. The lounge's five meals a day were all excellent, and it's the largest Ritz-Carlton lounge in the Asia-Pacific region. They offer local Xi'an noodle stalls for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, along with a wide selection of fruits and drinks. It wasn't cold in Xi'an the other day, and there was even an outdoor seating area. We enjoyed afternoon tea there, which was very pleasant. However, I highly recommend the Fresh Kitchen for breakfast. You can find incredibly delicious oil-splashed noodles and roujiamo (Chinese hamburger). I think they're even better than anywhere else! - This time I stayed in a Deluxe Room, which was a spacious 75 square meters. The TV cabinet was movable, allowing the room to easily switch between the room and living room. Plus, the lounge was well-equipped, so you could easily spend the whole day in the hotel without leaving! The swimming pool and gym are sure to be popular. The equipment is all Technogym, and there's a wide selection. In the evening, I tried their Japanese cuisine, "Seared Teppanyaki." They have an all-you-can-eat Japanese buffet on weekdays. The salmon was incredibly fresh. I also recommend the red wine foie gras and thinly sliced ​​beef. The teppanyaki is all made to order. There aren't many seats, but it's very private, so reservations are necessary. Also, try their "Jingxuan" dim sum buffet; the service and food are among the best in Xi'an. In the evening, there was a lady playing the pipa in the lobby, allowing me to experience Xi'an's local culture once again. Sometimes, a good hotel can be the destination of your trip. No need to rush; just quietly enjoy the moment!

My stay at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel in Xi'an truly gave me a taste of what it means to be a "hotel within a hotel." I stayed in a Ritz Suite, which was incredibly spacious. The design cleverly blended the charm of the ancient capital with modern luxury, and the dry landscape garden complemented the ancient charm of Xi'an, creating a unique and tranquil atmosphere. What truly impressed me was the largest executive lounge in Southwest China. The entire floor was a sensory feast. It offers exquisite complimentary dining five times a day, from breakfast and lunch to afternoon tea and pre-dinner snacks, ensuring I always found something to my liking. The hotel's welcome gifts were full of surprises, not only adorable in design but also incorporating authentic Xi'an elements. The signature calligraphy brush pastry and sweet pomegranate juice instantly bridged the gap between me and this ancient capital. But what I loved most were the personalized bathrobe embroidered with my name, the playful lion plush toy, and the exquisite lion photo frame—these small details showcased the Ritz-Carlton's commitment to personalized service. Unfortunately, due to the packed itinerary, I wasn't able to fully experience the hotel's spa and indoor pool. But having these things in mind makes me even more excited for our next visit.

【The Ritz-Carlton, Xi’an】A Modern Residence Hidden in the Ancient Capital The Ritz-Carlton, Xi’an is located in the bustling southern high-tech business district, just steps from Yanpingmen Station. It enjoys the convenience of the city’s main arteries while offering the tranquility of a recluse. The architecture sketches Tang Dynasty charm with a modern touch. Upon entering the lobby, the black and gold theme intertwined with bronze grilles creates a time corridor, quietly stitching the weight of the thirteen-dynasty ancient capital with contemporary aesthetics. ——— ◼️Accommodation Features: An Immersive Experience Woven with Details • Sleep System Custom Simmons Black Label mattresses support the body with a cloud-like touch, and high-thread-count cotton bedding feels like mist on the skin. Buckwheat pillows use a surface filling technique, continuing the Eastern health philosophy while adapting to modern sleeping postures. For those seeking the original support of full buckwheat, pillow core types can be changed via room service. • Audio-Visual Technology Samsung smart TVs come with a seamless casting system, allowing mobile videos to be mirrored instantly onto a 55-inch screen. The unique ad-skipping feature makes watching as smooth as silk sliding by. Compared to traditional casting that forces viewers to watch opening ads, this design better suits the efficient pace of business travelers. • Bathing Space Double jade stone basin countertops and a deep soaking tub form symmetrical aesthetics. French Diptyque bath products emit a fig fragrance in the misty steam. The separate shower room is equipped with a rainforest showerhead and pneumatic massage system, as if bringing a spa into your private domain. ——— ◼️Environmental Narrative: A Twin Theater of Ancient and Modern Fusion The hotel stands on the city’s central axis, with a skyline outlined by skyscrapers outside the window and within a 3-kilometer radius covering the Giant Wild Goose Pagoda and Tang City Wall Ruins Park. In the morning, guests can stroll the ring city park to feel the bustling life beneath the city wall roots. At night, standing by the floor-to-ceiling window, one can overlook the traffic flowing like a river of stars and the light dialogue with the millennium-old pagoda. The complex downstairs gathers high-end retail and Michelin-starred restaurants, while the hotel’s own “Fresh Kitchen” buffet restaurant juxtaposes old Xi’an specialty snacks with French baking, recreating the charm of Silk Road fusion. ——— ◼️Signature Scenes: Invisible Boundaries of Luxury • The spa center is inspired by the scale armor of the Terracotta Warriors, using British Aromatherapy Associates therapy products, completing body and mind renewal under Tang Sancai glaze-colored lighting • The executive lounge offers five rounds of dining service daily, with Xi’an specialty steamed cakes and caviar creating a taste montage • The wedding consultant team excels at integrating costume elements from “The Longest Day in Chang’an” into modern wedding designs This is both a gateway to historical secrets and a vessel of contemporary lifestyle aesthetics. On the pulse of the thirteen-dynasty ancient capital, The Ritz-Carlton, Xi’an writes a “Xi Jing Miscellany” for modern travelers in the language of Tang Dynasty elegance.

There are so many high-star hotels in Xi'an, but only two can truly be called luxury hotels. In my opinion, whether considering room size, dining, design, or service, The Ritz-Carlton Xi'an is undoubtedly the representative of ultra-luxury and the undisputed top-tier hotel in Xi'an. 1. The hotel has been open for over six years, and its operations have long been mature and stable. The design firm Remedios Studio uses architectural language and interior design as a medium to retell the glorious history and culture of the ancient capital around the theme of civilization. The hotel's exterior features a black and white color scheme, using stone and glass curtain walls to fully showcase a quality urban lifestyle concept. The interior space blends art and history, with large-scale artworks decorating the lobby, public areas, guest rooms, restaurants, and executive lounge. The design language is not ostentatious but a very modern and classic Ritz-Carlton style. 2. Ritz-Carlton is always known for its service. I have stayed at the Xi'an location several times, and the service is impeccable, maintaining Ritz-Carlton’s consistent standard of standardized service processes. From concierge, front desk, restaurants, guest rooms to the executive lounge, the service is very good, with thoughtful details that add extra points. For example, when I brewed tea in my room, the housekeeping staff noticed and kindly added several extra tea bags and placed more water, showing attentive service awareness. 3. Beyond excellent service, Ritz-Carlton also speaks with outstanding products. In terms of dining, each restaurant has its own characteristics, presenting different culinary flavors. Jing Xuan Chinese Restaurant offers exquisite Cantonese cuisine. Besides à la carte, the classic Cantonese dim sum buffet is highly recommended, with all dim sum made to order and over 50 varieties available. The all-day dining restaurant Fresh Kitchen serves a daily buffet dinner, currently featuring seafood & hot pot themes. The prices are on the higher side for Xi'an, but the quality is naturally excellent. 4. The Blaze Teppanyaki Restaurant is recommended for the classic Japanese all-you-can-eat. The unlimited Japanese dishes are very rich, including appetizers, salads, sashimi, teppanyaki, robatayaki, and more, with fresh sashimi especially recommended. The lobby bar’s afternoon tea is a must-visit; I personally love this space for its great atmosphere and the outdoor garden seating that feels like a secret urban oasis. There is also the 27th-floor FLAIR bar, which is trendy and arguably the best bar in Xi'an High-tech Zone. 5. Another major feature of The Ritz-Carlton Xi'an is that it has the largest executive lounge in Asia. The executive lounge is located on the 23rd floor, occupying the entire floor as an exclusive area, with a spacious layout and outdoor balcony seating. The lounge is divided into multiple functional zones including dining, reading, bar, leisure meeting, and conference areas, with a reasonable layout. Guests with executive privileges can enjoy breakfast, light lunch, afternoon tea, happy hour, and evening cocktails & desserts here. Five meals a day allow guests to spend a wonderful day entirely in the lounge. 6. The hotel is located in Xi'an High-tech Zone, the best location in this area. There is a subway station just across the street from the hotel, providing easy access to all major attractions in Xi'an. Right downstairs is a shopping mall, offering everything for dining, entertainment, and leisure.

The Ritz-Carlton, Xi'an is absolutely amazing! This time, they've partnered with the Swiss luxury skincare brand LA PRAIRIE to launch a limited-edition afternoon tea 🍵🧁. The overall effect is understated yet luxurious, with both stunning presentation and delicious taste. The sweet and savory combination is surprisingly refreshing. ✨Crab Salad with Sour Cream and Caviar LA PRAIRIE's classic caviar, with its savory and fresh flavor, bursts with rich, oily notes on the tongue, leaving a lingering fragrance on the palate. The other desserts are also beautifully presented and delicious. ✨The drinks further emphasize the ocean theme. The blue 🐬 drink is incredibly beautiful.

Comprehensive experience sharing of The Ritz-Carlton, Xi’an✨ First impression: Low-key luxury facade As soon as I arrived at the hotel, I was immediately attracted by its simple and grand architectural appearance. The black and white color scheme and boomerang-shaped building are very distinctive. The lobby design is also very thoughtful, with a symmetrical layout and a fireplace in the middle cleverly dividing the space. The dark shades combined with intricate rectangular decorations seem to incorporate elements of the Xi’an city wall, instantly immersing you in a strong atmosphere of luxury. Check-in experience: Thoughtful service warms the heart During check-in, the concierge proactively helped with my luggage and greeted me sincerely with “Welcome to The Ritz-Carlton,” which instantly made me feel respected. The hotel staff have a strong service awareness; several employees actively guided me to the front desk, making the check-in process very smooth. The room arrangement was also very considerate—I stayed in a high-floor king room with an amazing view overlooking the bustling cityscape. Room details: Quality and design combined The room’s decoration and facilities exude refinement. Details like the wooden swivel TV frame and metal-framed glass doors are perfectly executed. The bedding is of very high quality and extremely comfortable; even someone like me who usually has trouble sleeping fell asleep instantly. The hotel also thoughtfully provides turndown service at night, with the bed neatly tucked, water and a welcome card placed on the bedside table, creating a warm feeling. Dining exploration: A delicious journey for the taste buds The hotel offers a variety of dining options, and my favorite is Fresh Kitchen Buffet. The restaurant’s design is stylish, with lighting that looks like jellyfish. The dishes are abundant, especially the oil-splashed noodles, which might be the best and most popular oil-splashed noodles in all of Xi’an, with just the right portion size. However, the breakfast service has a minor flaw: there is no à la carte menu, no seating host, and guests need to get their own utensils and coffee. Lounge time: Comfort in the sky garden The Executive Lounge is located on the 23rd floor and is the largest Ritz-Carlton Executive Lounge in the Asia-Pacific region. The layout is smooth, featuring a fireplace meeting area, living room, library, and a terrace for relaxing while enjoying the city night view. The lounge offers five daily sessions of selected delicacies, with an open kitchen staffed by dedicated chefs cooking on-site, and the service is very attentive. Fitness and leisure: Comprehensive relaxation for body and mind The hotel gym is well-equipped, and the pool is spacious with a guest area nearby. I especially love the FLAIR bar on the top floor, where the indoor ceiling is made of wood-grain aluminum panels and the outdoor floor is made of Yuexiu wood. The indoor and outdoor spaces can be freely combined, and sitting on the rooftop terrace offers a panoramic view of Xi’an’s nightscape. Practical tips: Check-in advice • Transportation: The hotel is located in the southern high-tech business district, adjacent to Zhongda International, and very close to the Kejilu Station on Metro Line 3, making travel very convenient. • Booking: If you want to experience the Executive Lounge, it is recommended to book an executive room in advance or purchase executive privileges separately. • Dining: Fresh Kitchen’s dinner offers great value and a wide variety of dishes, definitely worth trying. Recommendation: The ultimate choice for a luxurious experience The Ritz-Carlton, Xi’an boasts first-class hardware facilities and excellent service. Although there are minor flaws in dining service, the overall experience is still fantastic. Whether for business trips or leisure vacations, this place can provide you with an unforgettable journey and is definitely worth recommending to everyone.

✅ Finally checked out the Ritz-Carlton Xi'an, which I've been longing to visit! This hotel is like a modern palace in an ancient city 🏰 The lobby, incorporating elements of the Tang Dynasty, was breathtaking from the moment I entered! The welcome cocktail from butler Sophie made me fall in love instantly. ✅ Staying here is like being treated like royalty every day ✨ The rooms perfectly blend the charm of Chang'an with modern luxury, and the bedding was so comfortable I wanted to stay in bed every night! I especially loved the details in the rooms, like the screen with a pipa pattern and the teacups with ladies' portraits…everywhere I looked was a masterpiece 📸 Kelly and Iris from the guest services department even thoughtfully prepared a guide to visiting the Shaanxi History Museum! ✅ My culinary experience was amazing 🍜 Breakfast featured a wide variety of Xi'an snacks! The roujiamo (Chinese hamburger) was even better than the ones in the Muslim Quarter, and the spicy soup with freshly baked bread was divine! The afternoon tea in the executive lounge was stunning, with macarons shaped like terracotta warriors – so cute! The Chinese restaurant for dinner offers a stunning view of the Tang Paradise nightscape while you enjoy hot pot! 🌃 ✅ The location is incredibly convenient 🚇 Although it's in the High-Tech Zone, it's directly accessible by subway! It's only a 20-minute walk to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, and after shopping at SKP, you can relax in a Tang-style bathtub. It's especially quiet at night, with a view of Xi'an's modern skyline from the window. Taking photos with the ancient city wall and posting them on WeChat Moments will get you tons of questions about the location! ✅ Tip: Be sure to experience the "Silk Road Fragrance" SPA at the spa center 🧖♀️ Enjoying a floating afternoon tea while wearing Hanfu is absolutely amazing! Remember to book a south-facing room in advance; the Qinling Mountain view on a clear day is breathtaking. This time, I discovered a super authentic paomo (pita bread soaked in mutton soup) restaurant just a 10-minute walk from the hotel—a hidden gem known only to locals!

Xi'an is about to enter the beginning of winter The temperature has dropped a bit In the midst of busy work, you need to find a quiet place To let yourself pause Surrounded by the greenery of the courtyard Exhibits displayed in the long corridor Step closer to the bustling city Step back to the warmth hidden in the market After exercising Lie down on soft bedding to fall asleep Comfort for body and mind Have a dream of Chang'an

When the golden threads of morning light embroider the eaves of the ancient city wall, and the cooking smoke from the Golden Bridge meets the evening breeze of Qujiang Pool, this city of Chang'an, carrying three thousand years of stories, gently awakens the old dreams of the flourishing Tang Dynasty deep in the heart. This is a poem that time writes to travelers. No need to search deliberately; you will naturally encounter this land. Hidden deep within the city's bustling heart is a corner where time slows down. A courtyard surrounded by greenery gently isolates the noise; the flowing light and shadow whisper ancient wisdom between "heaven is round, earth is square." This is not a hurried inn to stay at, but a distant place where the soul can rest peacefully. In a quiet place, reunite with Chang'an. A window is left open, outside which is the silhouette of Zhongnan Mountain, the skyline where ancient city and modernity intertwine. In the morning, watch the clouds emerge from the mountain; at dusk, admire the glow of the sunset. Space is no longer a cold measure but a vessel that holds all your thoughts. Every detail silently tells the story of Eastern aesthetics and philosophy. In the heart of prosperity, find a place of peace. This is both the starting point to explore the charm of the ancient capital and the tranquil refuge upon return. By day, follow the footsteps of history to feel the warmth of Qin bricks and Han tiles; by night, return to this private world and dream a long dream about Chang'an under the starlight and moonlight. True luxury is allowing body and mind to find long-lost tranquility and belonging. May this sense of settling, born from nature and history, be woven into the warmest memory of your journey. 📍 The Ritz-Carlton, Xi'an

Public Areas: The building was designed by WATG (the same firm as The Ritz-Carlton Kyoto), featuring a sharply defined black-and-white exterior and a layered, strictly symmetrical lobby that echoes the city walls and ancient capital. In the center of the lobby, a lady in traditional style plays the zither (at first, I thought it was just lobby background music). The elevator area and public spaces favor ink wash style and local Xi'an culture in their decorations. Restaurants: The Executive Lounge offers excellent food; the lunch and dinner buffets have a rich variety of cold and hot dishes, and the afternoon tea is also fantastic. The Chinese restaurant Jing Xuan offers great value with an all-you-can-eat lunch; those who enjoy Cantonese dim sum should definitely try it. The Japanese restaurant’s curry hot pot for one is surprisingly good—probably the best curry I’ve had this year. On Mondays and Tuesdays, there’s a buffet with unlimited foie gras, which really hits the spot! The outdoor environment of the lobby bar is beautiful and perfect for photos; the scones are delicious! The Western restaurant’s breakfast has a wide variety of options, including various desserts, pastries, and cold dishes, with plenty to choose from! Concierge service is warm and attentive; they proactively help with luggage upon check-in, so you don’t have to lift a finger. Even when changing rooms, they helped pack, organize, and move everything to the new room. The housekeeping department also gifted a naked lion plush, a makeup mirror, and a luggage tag, which felt very thoughtful. The welcome fruit selection is abundant, and the drinking water is Bama Platinum Spring, though I still prefer Zhongnan Mountain Spring water. The wellness center is brand new and fully equipped. The pool is large with suitable depths, but there are many children enrolled in swimming classes, and the noise from kids and parents makes it feel like a market, with poor management that kills the desire to swim. The massage and soaking pools are spacious and new, separated by gender, and very comfortable. Public Areas: Exquisite and elegant, designed by the same interior team as The Ritz-Carlton Kyoto, with dry landscape gardens everywhere that add a unique charm. The recent Christmas decorations in the lobby are also beautiful, perfect for photos! The 5th-floor gym and spa feature a heated pool and sauna rooms, with very few people—excellent! Rooms: Comfortable bedding and a reasonable layout. Amenities include diptyque fig products and TWG tea bags.

The Xi'an Ritz-Carlton offers a calming yet profound experience. The outdoor terrace is lovely! The interior is modern and not old-fashioned, which I really liked. There are many old Ritz-Carltons in China, but this one is different.

Discovering The Ritz-Carlton Xi'an: Ultimate Luxury with a Serene Aesthetic! Hey there, travel buddies! 👋 When you think of The Ritz-Carlton, grand opulence and timeless elegance likely come to mind. But my stay at The Ritz-Carlton in the ancient city of Xi'an completely surprised me with its understated minimalism and a uniquely serene vibe—a refreshing twist that truly captivates 🎈. 🌟 Unique Design: A Masterful Interpretation of Eastern Elegance The interior design of this hotel, much like Kyoto’s Ritz-Carlton (one of the world’s most expensive), was crafted by the renowned designer Peter Remedios 👍. His approach to Eastern culture isn’t about overt clichés but rather a delicate, restrained touch that perfectly captures Xi'an’s profound history and heritage ✨. I was especially enchanted by the intricate marquetry patterns found everywhere—from the long corridors and sunlit windowsills to the tranquil sleeping areas and cozy showers, even down to the jewelry box inside the safe. This "less is more" sophistication speaks volumes without a word—absolutely mesmerizing! 🎨 An Art Lover’s Paradise: Every Corner Tells a Story The Ritz-Carlton Xi'an feels like an art gallery, brimming with breathtaking artistic details 🎉. At the entrance, an egg-shaped art installation symbolizes the harmony of heaven and earth, glowing enchantingly at night as if whispering ancient tales. The lobby’s chandelier, inspired by Xi'an’s city walls, adds a rich historical aura. Centered on the lobby wall is the artwork "Migratory Birds," a stunning composition of ultra-thin glass pieces creating an ink-wash effect that invites lingering admiration. And the crown jewel? The largest Ritz-Carlton Executive Lounge in Asia, where an authentic Picasso greets you at the door, instantly immersing you in the awe of art. 🛋 Executive Lounge: A Private Feast Above the Clouds Spanning the entire 23rd floor, the Executive Lounge at The Ritz-Carlton Xi'an is a secluded sanctuary with five functional areas surrounded by scenic terraces 🌆. The privileges here are nothing short of lavish—breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea, evening cocktails, and late-night snacks—a five-course culinary journey catering to every whim. From dainty English tea pastries to an exquisite selection of wines, champagnes, and soft drinks, plus à la carte evening delights, whether bathed in daylight or under the stars, this is indulgence perfected. 🍽 Global Gastronomy: A Culinary Journey Around the World The hotel’s dining options are a paradise for foodies 😋. The elegant "Jing Xuan" Chinese restaurant serves exquisite dishes that double as edible art. At Flair, Xi'an’s first rooftop bar, sip cocktails while soaking in panoramic city views. My personal favorite? "Zhi Yan," the teppanyaki restaurant, where Japanese elements like turquoise and karesansui (dry landscape) create a serene, urban retreat. Beyond mouthwatering teppanyaki, enjoy unlimited sashimi, sushi, robatayaki, and tempura—all at surprisingly reasonable prices. A true blessing for gourmands! So, dear travelers, The Ritz-Carlton Xi'an is a must-visit. Its serene elegance and unparalleled luxury promise an unforgettable experience. Bookmark this gem for your next Xi'an adventure and immerse yourself in its unique charm 🎊!

A Sensory Secret in the Heart of the Ancient City 😝: The Ritz-Carlton Xi’an, a Luxurious Residence in the Thirteen Dynasties Ancient Capital 👏👏👏 Deep within the concrete jungle of Xi’an, a door quietly opens, leading to the most soul-soothing contemporary sanctuary in the ancient capital of thirteen dynasties. The black-and-white interlaced exterior walls stand silently amidst the neon lights of Xi’an High-tech Business District 💁, with clean and solemn lines, like a modern gentleman in a suit paying tribute to the millennia-old city. ✨ Stepping into the courtyard of The Ritz-Carlton Xi’an, the city’s noise is instantly cut off by lush greenery—this is a microcosm guarded by the bronze sculpture “Qiankun” created by artist Li Lindi 🍵, interpreting the first encounter between Eastern philosophy and modern luxury in the form of heaven’s roundness and earth’s square. 🥂 👏👏👏 The design is a dialogue across time and space, with Remedios Studio infusing the soul of Chang’an into the contemporary spatial texture. The lobby’s lattice and greenery create a tranquil siheyuan (courtyard house) imagery, while looking up reveals the “Migratory Birds” art installation fluttering in the high ceiling; at the corridor’s end, Chen Xinmao’s “Xi’an Story” scroll gradually unfolds, with the figure of Xuanzang guiding the gaze through past and present. 👏👏👏 Cultural symbols like “blue bricks,” “armor,” and “window lattices” are cleverly deconstructed—beside the dry landscape garden sits a little lion doll dressed in Terracotta Warrior armor, the pomegranate-patterned ceramic ornaments in the rooms subtly reference the “Sacred Fruit of the Silk Road,” and even the bathroom wall tiles carry the lingering charm of the Tang Dynasty. More than a thousand artworks are scattered throughout, from the silent bloom of a Picasso original beside the executive lounge door to the Qinling mountain landscape painted on transparent panels, every step treads the intersection of history and future. 👏👏👏 The executive lounge, perched on the 23rd floor, is known as the “ceiling” of the Ritz-Carlton brand. Nearly 500 square meters are divided into five functional zones: the rustling pages in the library, the rhythm of the bartender shaking cocktail shakers in the bar area, and the outdoor terrace offering a panoramic view of the ancient city skyline. The executive privileges go far beyond five global feasts a day—the morning steam rises from freshly cooked Shaanxi saozi noodles, the evening happy hour features tender yam stewed pig’s trotters, and freshly baked scones are carefully kept warm with cotton cloth during dessert time. Holding a cup of TWG jasmine tea by the railing, the lights of Chang’an city begin to glow, resembling the Milky Way pouring down to earth. 👏👏👏 The palate is another measure of the ancient capital. The all-day dining restaurant “Fresh Kitchen” performs a “Xian”-style pun philosophy 😍: chefs stretch Biangbiang noodles on-site and splash them with hot oil, the fragrant sizzle trembling with the passion of Guanzhong; Jingxuan Chinese restaurant completes a Cantonese-Shaanxi flavor symphony with Xifeng flame bamboo charcoal Wagyu beef ribs 🍗, while matsutake and conch soup in celadon bowls evoke the warmth of Lingnan. 👏👏👏 Taking the exclusive elevator to the top-floor Flair bar, the “Silk Road Tasting Journey” cocktail menu quietly opens the door to time and space—the light sip of “Ancient Babylon Legend,” where apricot brandy clashes sweetly and sourly with guava, paired with the peppery and crispy “Wong Fei Hung Beef Cubes” ✨✨, makes Xi’an both ancient and youthful in a glass 🍂. 👏👏👏 Swiss General Manager Patrick Weder’s 🎖 presence wandering the streets symbolizes the hotel’s deep connection with the city. This elite graduate of Lausanne Hotel Management School, fluent in five languages 🏅, has been rooted in Xi’an since 2018 and is obsessed with exploring the city’s soul: “I always carry a camera to find little-known perspectives; even the cracks in the bricks of the Big Wild Goose Pagoda hide stories 💅.” His passion translates into details 🐾: room key cards are printed with the outline of the Ming City Wall, night snacks are replaced with crystal cakes, and even the spa’s “Silk Road Journey” treatment incorporates local herbs and ancient cleansing methods into the Silk Road imagery 🎄. 👏👏👏 Post-pandemic travelers crave emotional healing 🥗, and The Ritz-Carlton understands this well. Rooms start at 50 square meters, offering ample space for body and mind to relax; details like Dyson hairdryers 🎨 and mirror TVs ease travel anxiety; the pool corridor’s water ripple textured walls reflect light and shadow, evoking the sensation of swimming in the Daming Palace Taiye Pool 👍👍👍. The most touching are those “wasted luxuries”—in the public lounge areas on guest floors, in front of the dry landscape and ink wash mountain walls, a cup of tea 🌟 is enough to calm restlessness 🛀🏻. When the attendant smiles and hands you a warm towel saying “Welcome home,” the wandering soul finally touches land. 🤩 The Chang’an moon in 2024 still shines on the starting point of the Silk Road, and The Ritz-Carlton Xi’an reinterprets the grandeur of the Tang Dynasty from a contemporary perspective. When you raise a glass on the 23rd-floor terrace, watching the ancient city wall’s outline blend into the dazzling star river of the High-tech Zone; when the spicy aroma of Wong Fei Hung beef cubes blooms on your tongue 💫, the Tang Dynasty’s Hu-style and Han-style charm and modern inclusive innovation resonate in harmony at this moment—this is no longer just a place to stay overnight ✨, but a ceremonial encounter where history and future collide in the senses 💋.

It's been several years since I last visited Xi'an, so how could I miss The Ritz-Carlton? The value for money at this Ritz-Carlton is exceptionally high, and overall, I'm thoroughly satisfied. 💳: Made an online reservation in advance. Check-in was super efficient upon arrival—big thumbs up to the front desk! 👍 Due to travel delays, I arrived quite late this time 😭 Hopefully can come earlier next visit. 🛏: Unfortunately, the room upgrade voucher didn't work out this time 😭 Ended up in a king bed room on the 9th floor. However, the 50㎡ base room is incredibly spacious ✌ Coffee machine and bathtub come standard, and the minibar is generously stocked, living up to 🌰's usual reputation. 🍱: Breakfast was at Xian Kitchen on the 3rd floor. Weekend crowds were heavy—had to wait a bit in the morning 😄 The spread was absolutely lavish ✌ Plenty of choices between Western and Chinese options. 🍴: Used the dining credit to try the weekend lunch buffet at Xian Kitchen (also on 3rd floor). The variety was even more impressive—cold cuts, hot dishes, mains, and fruits all available. The seafood was unbelievably fresh! ✌ 🏠: The Ritz-Carlton, Xi'an 📌: No. 50 Keji Er Road

The Ritz-Carlton, Xi’an x Saudi Vanguard artist RexChouk [Pop Flying Blanket] Collaborative Afternoon Tea☕️ and RexChouk Art Painting Appreciation🖼️ An art feast spanning regions and cultures, interweaving the vast imagery of the Saudi desert, Rexchouk's abstract art paintings and the luxurious elegance of the Ritz-Carlton brand, presenting a double enjoyment of visual sensory and taste bud satisfaction😋 The hotel lobby bar displays art paintings by Rexchouk, known as the Picasso on the dunes and a vanguard representative of the Saudi contemporary art scene.

① Style Experienced The Ritz-Carlton Xi'an – the design is very Chinese-inspired with warm tones. Though the rooms are smaller than W Hotel's, the layout is more practical. The room decor features fun little knickknacks, and while there's no lake view, the actual scenery outside the window is still pleasant. North-facing rooms are recommended for quieter stays. ② Amenities The bed is super comfortable, but the buckwheat pillows fall short compared to W's (W uses full buckwheat filling, while The Ritz-Carlton only has a top layer). Both have Samsung smart TVs, but screen mirroring works better here – it skips ads automatically, unlike W's ad-filled mirroring experience. The hairdryer is disappointing—neither Dyson nor Lefant. The oversized dressing mirror is excellent, outperforming W's. ③ Service Received welcome fruits and tiger-shaped cookies with Xi'an flair. Front desk staff were friendly, but check-in delays left one room unavailable until 4:30 PM. As apology, they gifted a Terracotta Warrior-themed lion plushie. ④ Location Far more convenient than W: adjacent to a major mall, with 5 McDonald's and 8 KFCs within 2 km – you can gauge the area's vibrancy. Nearby branches of Ziwulu Zhangji Rougamo and Yongli Barbecue (yesterday's dinner spot) are within easy reach. However, compared to W, it adds 10-20 mins' drive to attractions: Giant Wild Goose Pagoda, Tang Paradise, Shaanxi History Museum, Terracotta Warriors, Huaqing Palace, and Song of Everlasting Sorrow. Distance to the ancient city wall is similar to W's. For first-time Xi'an visitors, W gets priority for its proximity to sights. Business travelers? The Ritz-Carlton wins for comfort and convenience.

Xi'an · "The Ritz-Carlton Hotel" title1: One of the top three luxury hotels in Xi'an title2: The Xi'an version of Shenzhen Bay No. 1 Raffles Hotel title3: Genuine Picasso I have always believed that money can buy the best things, which is a wonderful experience, the kind of experience that leaves memories. This time on my hotel exploration trip in Xi'an, I learned another fact, that all luxury hotels (ultra-five-star hotels, such as JW Marriott, Grand Hyatt, and even more high-end hotels such as The Ritz-Carlton) are loss-making businesses, and it is almost impossible for hotel owners to recoup their investment during their lifetime. The reason why so many luxury hotels are still being built one after another is usually because real estate developers want to obtain other projects, improve the surrounding energy level, and provide high-end service attributes to the area as a trade-off. A calculation can also show that the construction cost of hotels such as The Ritz-Carlton may be dozens of times that of the profitable Atour, while the room rate is only a few times higher (in Xi'an, a luxury hotel price depression, it is even only 3 times higher). So although luxury hotels seem very expensive, from this perspective, it is really a very cost-effective thing to have a group of people providing you with such an ultimate experience without making money. The Ritz-Carlton, Xi'an is a pearl in the Ganjiazhai area of Xi'an High-tech Zone. The hotel building is adjacent to the high-end commercial Zhongda International, and the same plot is Zhongda International No. 9, known as Xi'an's Tomson Riviera. There is also Xi'an's best Gaoxin No. 1 High School and Muta Temple Wanda high-end community nearby. This configuration makes me feel more like Shenzhen Bay No. 1 and Pengrui Raffles in Shenzhen. The first impression of The Ritz-Carlton, Xi'an is that it is a small and exquisite high-end hotel. The hotel's exterior and lobby are very modern and luxurious!

Arrived in Xi'an for the first stop of the winter vacation and bravely checked into The Ritz-Carlton. I heard that it has the largest executive lounge in Asia, so I'm here to see what it's all about! ✅ Check-in There are staff at the hotel lobby entrance to guide you, open the car door, and take your luggage. Check-in is quick, and the receptionist is very enthusiastic, introducing the room conditions and hotel floor layout in detail, and confirming the details of the executive lounge benefits. The executive lounge is on the 23rd floor and is only accessible to specific room types and above. ✅ Room Type Because I wanted to experience the largest executive lounge in Asia, I booked an executive king room (the price of an ordinary room type requires an additional CNY 799), and the price fluctuation was not significant. I communicated the birthday details with the hotel in advance, and the room was simply decorated with welcome fruit and desserts. You will also receive an exclusive commemorative room card printed with your name! The room's toiletries are all large bottles of Diptyque, and the scenery is very good. ✅ Executive Lounge Benefits The most anticipated part of this stay is the executive lounge, where you can experience five exquisite dining options and exclusive executive lounge experiences. 1️⃣ Breakfast 06:30–11:00 For breakfast, you can choose the Xian Kitchen on the third floor or dine in the executive lounge. This time, I chose the Xian Kitchen, which has a wide variety of options. In addition to basic desserts and Chinese and Western dishes, there are also Xi'an specialties such as Saozi noodles, Biang Biang noodles, mutton paomo, and roujiamo. The taste is really as good as that of specialty restaurants. 2️⃣ Lunch 12:00–14:00 Lunch is mainly cold dishes and Chinese dishes. The hot dishes are fresh, and the cold dishes remain the same. There are different special noodles every day. This time, I tried braised beef noodles and Northern Thai golden noodles, and the ingredients and taste were well received. 3️⃣ Afternoon Tea 14:30–16:30 Afternoon tea for two is CNY 328/set. Both the appearance and taste are online, especially the freshly baked scones, which have a rich flavor. I also tasted cherry foie gras, which I loved! 4️⃣ Cocktails and Snacks 17:00–20:00 Dinner is still mainly cold dishes and Chinese dishes. The quality of the Japanese food station is very high, the ingredients are solid, and smoked salmon is also available in unlimited quantities. In addition to the afternoon tea snacks, there are also new additions on the dessert table, so if you missed afternoon tea at noon, you can still put together a set on the spot in the evening. 5️⃣ Evening Dessert Wine and Desserts 20:30–22:30 There are seven cocktails to choose from, including both alcoholic and non-alcoholic options. The alcohol content is very low, making them suitable for sisters to chat over drinks. There is a bar and sofa area indoors, and the sofa bed is recommended outdoors, overlooking the night view of the high-tech zone. Overall, the largest executive lounge in Asia offers a full experience. The hotel has a strong artistic atmosphere, with a different view at every turn. It is understated and luxurious. I vow to make a lot of money so I can come again next time!
