Centrally located in Xi'an, Honglu Garden Hotel is set just beside Xi'an City Wall, only a 5-minute walk from the Zhuque Gate and a 15-minute walk from Yongningmen Subway Station.

The hotel is in a fantastic location directly opposite the old city wall. We found it a little confusing on arrival as there is no obvious name outside and the front looks slightly different than in the pictures. As two British travellers with no Mandarin language skills we could communicate with staff very easily through translation apps. Our room was on the top floor which we would recommend as that allowed us to see the top of the wall and beyond, rooms lower down seemed likely to just have a view of the wall. Room was clean and spacious, although lacked wardrobe space. The shower appears to leak under the floor and it and the toilet had confusing controls. Appreciated the free self service washing machine and dryer.

East Coast Coffee Inn is a recently renovated homestay in the centre of Xi'an, 4 km from Xi'an City Wall and 4.7 km from Drum Tower.

Staff were great and very accommodating. Only negative I have is that the mattresses are a bit thin. Otherwise, everything is great, very central to attractions and lots of restaurants around in the area. Definitely recommended.

    Right in the heart of muslim quarter. Great location, easy walking distance from the metro stop. Great local street food, highly recommended if you want an authentic stay in china. Great host, friendly and helpful. Helpful to have an English speaker too!

    This was a really really great hostel and I don't think I'd have found much better in Xi'an for the price. It's clean, the staff are super friendly and will chat with you. It's in a good location close to a metro station that goes straight to the city centre in 5 minutes and also some fast food shops and a mini supermarket. The showers and bathroom area are also nice and clean.

    They put at the roof top with very dim light to access our room. They try to sell rooms down stairs but pay almost double our current rate. I wouldn't recommend anyone to this homestay. Worst ever place to stay.

    Location, comfortable bed. It's not a hotel, its a homestay. The owners of the apartment rent out several rooms.
