A design-driven five-star hotel in Lintong District, the closest luxury base to the Terracotta Army and Huaqing Palace; rooms from around ¥1,200/night (~$169).
Garrya Xi'an Lintong is a design-forward hotel positioned in Lintong District on the eastern edge of Xi'an, close to both the Terracotta Army museum and the Huaqing Palace hot spring complex at the foot of Mount Li. As one of the few luxury properties directly in Lintong rather than the city center, it functions as a base for travellers who prefer to stay near the imperial-era sites rather than commute roughly an hour each way from downtown Xi'an. The hotel's design draws on the area's imperial and archaeological history through contemporary architecture and interiors rather than a historic building. Rooms range from Deluxe and Premier categories to suites, generally furnished with a minimalist, art-inflected aesthetic. Dining includes a Chinese restaurant, an all-day international restaurant, and a bar/lounge. The spa includes an indoor pool, treatment rooms, and a fitness centre. Guests wanting to combine a stay near the Terracotta Army with old-city sightseeing should plan for the roughly 40-60 minute drive or Metro Line 5 connection back into central Xi'an.
