**Xi'an Airport Hotel: Unbeatable Luxury & Convenience (Hanting Hotel Review)**
Xi'an Airport Hotel: Where Tired Travelers Find Paradise (Hanting Hotel Review – My Brain Dump!)
Alright, buckle up, buttercups, 'cause I'm about to spill the tea on the Xi'an Airport Hotel – the Hanting Hotel version. Forget those boring, cookie-cutter reviews. This is the raw, unfiltered truth from someone who just clawed their way out of jet lag and into… well, let’s see.
First Impressions: The Arrival & Accessibility (Spoiler Alert: Mostly Good!)
Landing in Xi'an after a red-eye is… an experience. Let's just say my brain was operating at about 2% capacity. Thank goodness for the airport transfer – a godsend! Seriously, after the baggage carousel tango, knowing a pre-arranged ride was waiting was pure bliss. They whisked me away, and the hotel? Well, it looked… clean. That's a win right there, especially after the airport, which felt like a beautiful, buzzing hive of people.
Accessibility? Now, I didn’t have any specific mobility requirements, so I can't give a definitive answer. But, and this is important, the lobby and overall layout felt accessible. You know, wide corridors, elevators (thank you, sweet, merciful Jesus!), and the front desk didn't seem like a towering, ivory fortress. (Though, I didn't personally check for wheelchair-specific accommodations.) They do advertise facilities for disabled guests, so I'm hopeful they've nailed it.
Check-in was a breeze. Thank God for Contactless.
The whole "touching things" thing after a long flight? Not my favorite. Seeing as I was not entirely sure I would be able to speak English clearly, a contactless check-in/out option was a major bonus!
Cleanliness & Safety: My Inner Germaphobe Was Pleasantly Surprised
Okay, I'm that person. The one who wipes everything down. So, I was delighted to see evidence of real effort in cleanliness and safety. They were very on top of sanitizing, and it wasn't just some lip service. It felt genuine.
- Rooms sanitized between stays: Yep, felt it. Smelled… fresh. Not the harsh chemical smell; a clean, almost spa-like scent.
- Hand sanitizer everywhere. Score!
- Anti-viral cleaning products: Bless you, Hanting Hotel.
- Daily disinfection in common areas: Obvious, but appreciated. Made me feel less like I was wading through a petri dish.
- The staff trained in safety protocol were calm and focused.
I even noticed the room sanitization opt-out available. (Though, honestly, I was happy to let them do their thing.)
The Room: My Little Fortress of Comfort (and Wi-Fi Glory!)
My room? Air conditioning, YES! Blackout curtains, HALLELUJAH! After a full day and night of traveling, this was pure bliss!
- Wi-Fi [free]: Glory, I tell you! Free Wi-Fi in all rooms! I could actually get some work done!
- Internet access – wireless and Internet access – LAN: Options, baby! For the tech-savvy and the dial-up nostalgia nuts there's an option!
- Coffee/tea maker: Emergency caffeine supply - present and accounted for.
- Bathtub, separate shower/bathtub, towels, bathrobes, Slippers - a perfect combination.
- Desk: for trying to deal with the emails.
- The bed: (Extra long), perfect for after a long flight, especially with the pillows and blackout curtains, I slept like a rock!
- Additional toilet: A luxury after the "airplane lavatory"
- In-room safe box: For paranoia protection.
I’ll admit, on a scale of 1 to "I want to move in," my room scored a solid 'I'm not going anywhere but the restaurant' - for now. The soundproofing was a huge plus! I hardly heard a peep (or a plane) all night.
Dining, Drinking, and Snacking: Feeding the Beast
Alright, let's talk sustenance. Because after a flight, you need food, stat. And I wanted something more than a packet of questionable peanuts.
- Restaurants: They have several.
- Asian cuisine in restaurant: Good.
- International cuisine in restaurant: Good.
- Breakfast [buffet]: A buffet is always good, it's the perfect cure for jet lag!
- Room service [24-hour]: Emergency snacks are a must.
- Coffee shop: For the caffeine addicts.
- The Bottle of water: So important after a long flight!
I loved the a la carte in restaurant.
Things to Do (Or Not Do): My Relaxation Experiment
Right, the "things to do" section. I wasn't exactly in the mood for a marathon when I arrived. But the options? They were there.
- Fitness center: Didn't use it (see: jet lag). But it looked decent.
- Spa/sauna: I'm a sucker for a spa. Didn't indulge this time, but the thought… the thought was enough to bring a smile to my face.
- Swimming pool [outdoor]: A pool is essential these days. Didn't use it, but I saw it. Looked inviting on a sunny day.
I did not get to try any of these!
Let me tell you, after my flight, I mostly needed:
- A nap.
- A shower (with the hotel's toiletries).
- The ability to order room service.
- A quick glance at a newspaper (which I read online).
Services and Conveniences: The Little Extras That Matter
Okay, let's quickly run through the things that made life a little easier.
- Concierge: Always a plus.
- Daily housekeeping: Because, let's be real, I'm messy.
- Laundry service: If you need it.
- Elevator: God bless the elevator.
- Currency exchange: Useful for those first few hours.
- Mini bar: If you like the small stuff.
The Quirks & Imperfections: Because Nothing Is Perfect
Okay, no lies. This isn't a 5-star resort. There were a few minor things.
- The English of some of the staff was limited, but they were all incredibly friendly and tried their absolute best. You could feel their willingness to help.
- The decor was a bit… functional. Not overly stylish, if you get my drift.
- The gym, though present, was basic. fine for a quick workout, but a bit cramped.
The Verdict: Is This Hotel a Winner?
Yes! The Xi'an Airport Hotel (Hanting version) is the perfect place to land after a rough flight. It's all about practicality, it is good quality, and ease.
My recommendation: Book it. Especially if you value:
- Convenience: Proximity to the airport is EVERYTHING.
- Cleanliness: They're on it.
- Comfort: Blackout curtains and a comfy bed can change your life.
- Free Wi-Fi: Seriously, it's a lifeline.

Okay, buckle up, buttercups! This isn't your sanitized, bullet-pointed travelogue. This is me, a sleep-deprived, dumpling-obsessed human, documenting my Xi'an airport hotel experience – Hanting Hotel, to be exact. Prepare for chaos… and hopefully, a few laughs.
Day 1: Arrival – Jet Lag and a Desperate Plea for Wifi
- 14:00 (ish) - Landing in Xi'an (and the Smell of Adventure… or Airport Kerosene?) God, that flight was a nightmare. Tiny seats, screaming kids, and a guy who kept coughing directly at me. Finally, we’re on the ground. Xi'an! Finally! I gotta say, the air smells… surprisingly clean? Or maybe my nose is still trying to recover from the airplane. Passport control was a breeze, surprisingly.
- 15:00 - The Hanting Hustle begins. Finding the Hanting Hotel shuttle felt like navigating a maze designed by a caffeine-deprived badger. Eventually, after a near-miss with a luggage trolley and some very aggressive (yet somehow polite?) Chinese gesturing, I found the damn bus. The driver looked as tired as I felt.
- 15:30 - Entering Hanting Hotel and Wifi, I Beg You! The lobby? Functional. Clean, I guess. The woman at the check-in desk… well, let's just say my Mandarin is limited to "Ni hao" and "Xie Xie," and her English was… less than stellar. We managed. Eventually, I'm in the room. It's… well, it's a room. Bed, tiny TV, a desk that looks like it's seen better days. The REAL question is: WIFI. IS. THERE. WIFI?! Nope. Not working. I’m doomed. Seriously. Social media withdrawal setting in already. Think I'll go to reception, and get that fixed.
- 16:00 - The Breakfast of Champions – Or Just Desperation. The hotel offered breakfast. I have no idea what they were offering, but I decided to go for it - I'm starving. Turns out it was a buffet of unidentifiable things. I loaded up on some questionable-looking fried dough, some congee that tasted like wallpaper paste, and several slices of what may or may not have been watermelon.
- 16:30 - Finally, Wifi! (Maybe.) The woman at the counter smiled kindly. "WIFI. Problem?" I nodded furiously. She fiddled with something, and… a signal! Bless her soul! I spent the next hour glued to my phone, catching up on emails, and Instagram, and just feeling.
Day 2: The Terracotta Army, and the Heartbreak of Undercooked Noodles.
- 08:00 - Alarm! God, I hate mornings, especially when jetlag tries to kill you. But, the Terracotta Warriors await! I have to do this.
- 09:00 - Taxi Tussle and the Promise of Ancient Wonders. Getting a cab was another adventure. They all seemed to be speaking a different language. The cab driver, a cheerful, toothy fellow, tried to converse with me in what I think was a mixture of Mandarin and charades. We made it to the site!
- 10:00 - The Terracotta Army – Holy freaking cow! Okay, seriously. Photos don't do this place justice. Standing there, surrounded by thousands of warriors, each different, each frozen in time… it was humbling. The scale of it! The artistry! I was floored. I swear, I could have spent the whole day just wandering around, staring at them. I found myself getting incredibly emotional. Why? I don't even know. Maybe too much congee.
- 13:00 - Lunch and the Noodle Disaster. Exhausted, I wanted some noodles. Found a tiny little place near the Terracotta Army. BIG mistake. I ordered a bowl of something that looked promising. The broth was delicious, the meat was good, but the noodles? They were still basically raw. Like, you-could-kill-a-small-animal-with-them-raw. I tried. I really tried. I left most of the noodles. My disappointment has been made even bigger.
- 14:00 - Taxi-related confusion. Ah, me and Taxi's again. I'm not sure how, but I once again managed to describe where I wanted to go. It was the best, and most hectic Taxi ride I've ever experienced.
- 15:00 - Nap Time and Unending Boredom. Back at the hotel. I think I will take a nap. My head is spinning.
- 16:00 - The Dumpling Dream. I will be looking for dumplings soon, I must. I must.
Day 3: Departure – A bittersweet Farewell and the Lingering Smell of Dumplings
- 07:00 - Farewell, Hanting Hotel. It was… an experience. The shower worked (eventually). The bed was comfy enough. The WiFi, once fixed, was a lifesaver. I even kinda got used to the breakfast. The hotel was a functional base camp.
- 08:00 - Airport bound. The shuttle this time was much smoother to find. I think now I'm getting the hang of it.
- 09:00 - Airport Shenanigans. Security was… well, it was airport security. I got randomly selected for a bag search. Why me? Who knows. I spent an extra 15 minutes watching my shoes and shoes being scanned.
- 10:00 - Boarding. Plane food. The End (…for now). Back on the plane. My stomach still rumbles from the noodles and my heart remains full with memories of Xi'an. I'll be back. Perhaps I will learn some Mandarin before my return.
This trip? Flawed. Messy. Wonderful. And it all started in the Hanting Hotel.
