A prime downtown budget-friendly chain hotel on Nan Dajie, with the Bell Tower, Drum Tower, Huimin Street, and Yongning Gate all within walking distance; rooms from around ¥320/night (~$45).
Holiday Inn Express Xi'an Bell Tower occupies a straightforward, well-located building on Nan Dajie (South Street), one of the main avenues radiating from the Bell Tower, placing it within walking distance of the Bell Tower, Drum Tower, Huimin Street, and the Yongning Gate section of the City Wall. The hotel follows the Holiday Inn Express model of simplified, no-frills accommodation aimed at value-conscious travellers rather than a full-service resort experience. Rooms range from Standard and Twin categories to Family Rooms suited to travellers with children. Included breakfast and a fitness centre are the main amenities beyond the rooms themselves; there is no pool or spa. The 24-hour front desk and laundry service support independent travellers managing their own itineraries. Given the location's proximity to the old town's core sights, this hotel functions as one of the more efficient bases for exploring Xi'an on foot, though rooms tend to be smaller than at full-service properties.
