Each guestroom or dormitory at Xi'an Travelling with Hotel (South Gate) is fitted with air conditioning and a work desk. The bathroom also comes with slippers. A city view is available from the room window.

Great location just inside the gate. If you follow the city wall to the west, there is a lively morning market with breakfast options and local life. Nice soft bed and space for sitting and enjoying the view. Roof top also great!

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.
