Dynasty Hotel, Xian

We stay at Dynasty Hotel for 3 nights. It is not located in the center part of the town but there is a bus stop right around the cornor. Bus ride is one Chinese dollar which is about 15 cents US. There is a shuttle from airport to the hotel for 25 Chinese dollar which is about $4 US. we are very happy with the nice size room & services. The front desk staff was very helpfull & gave us the renovated room. Although the room was recently renovated, the renovation only limited to the bathroom. The room decor is original & dated perhaps from the 80s but it does not bother us. In general, the staffs at front desk spoke some English and we were able to communicate but the staffs at the restaurant do not speak much English. Good advises on public transportation. We were happy with the breakfast & lunch food at the restaurant. We had one breakfast & one lunch at the restaurant & ate out at various places including Muslim Quarter.

Dynasty Hotel Xian is a very good value and conveniently located near the city walls, the bell tower and muslim quarter. The rooms were clean. They have baths as well as showers and an English TV station. The staff except for one front desk manager were very accomodating. Good place to stay.

We enjoyed our stay, just a little off the beaten path. Seems everywhere we wanted to go was on the other side of the city, and the ever changing water tempertures were the only drawbacks. I will stay there again when I return.
