Finding a good-value hotel in Xi'an
If you are arriving late or leaving early, a hotel near the correct airport or station can simplify the trip even when the room itself costs a little more. Xi'an is part of a region known for Xi'an, Silk Road history, imperial archaeology and mountain day trips.
Distances are large and itineraries often involve early trains, flights or long drives. The right overnight stop can save more than a slightly cheaper room far from the transport hub.
For a first visit to Xi'an, many travelers compare hotels around the Bell Tower, the City Wall and metro stations, then visit the Terracotta Army as a day trip. Staying near a metro interchange can make a short stay considerably easier.
Xi'an is a major high-speed rail hub for central and western China, so station location can matter as much as hotel price on multi-city trips.

Getting around and continuing your trip
