Worth weighing

  • Language barrier with staff — A few guests found that staff spoke limited English, leading to some confusion, though service remained helpful.
  • Extra charges for pool and gym — The pool and exercise room come at an additional cost, which may come as a surprise.
  • Limited English signage — At least one guest experienced confusion due to limited English, which could be a challenge for non-Mandarin speakers.

“Our stay was excellent. The rooms were large and spotless, and we felt at home. The pool and gym were top-notch and well-kept. The location was perfect — across from the zoo and near great restaurants. The revolving restaurant on the top floor offered amazing city views. Staff were friendly and one went out of their way to help with local transport.”

“Surprised by the quality at the Xiyuan Hotel near the zoo. The room was clean and spacious, the bed very comfortable. A fruit basket was waiting on arrival. The gym and lap pool were a nice bonus. Location may not be ideal for tourists, but there were good restaurants and shops within walking distance. Positive experience, I'd recommend it.”

“We thought it was near our son's apartment, but it wasn't, so we spent a lot on taxis. If you want to visit the zoo, it's right there — you can see pandas. Staff didn't speak much English, which led to some confusion. Clean, great breakfast buffet, reasonable sized room.”

“Convenient location near metro stations 4 and 6. Rooms were spacious and clean with comfortable beds. Fast elevators. A nearby Carrefour supermarket is handy. Staff were helpful arranging transportation.”
