Last week, I came to Xi'an for a trip and stayed at this newly opened hotel, right next to the Bell Tower on Beidajie in the city center. It's rare to find such a peaceful spot in the bustling city. The wabi-sabi style combined with new Chinese design shows the designer's impeccable taste.

All rooms are spacious and minimalist, each over 40 square meters. The decor mainly features old wood 🪵 and natural marble, giving off a Zen vibe 🍃.
For couples 👫, I recommend the "Changle Courtyard Bathtub Suite." You can enjoy tea 🍵 on the tatami by the window, and the round bathtub 🛁 is perfect for a relaxing soak. The room is equipped with Marshall speakers, a Dyson hairdryer, and high-quality bedding.

The 17th-floor sky pool 🏊 and whiskey bar are must-visit spots—overlooking the Bell Tower at night 🌃 creates an amazing atmosphere for photos 📷.
Sleeping in the next morning won’t make you miss breakfast 🥣—from 8:00 to 12:00, a combined Chinese and Western breakfast is delivered straight to your room. Fresh fruit, late-night snacks, and treats are all available with 24-hour butler service 👍.
Before leaving, I even received a custom-made small seal carved in ancient script by a master craftsman, a unique intangible cultural heritage souvenir. Booking a room also includes a 30-minute in-house travel photoshoot, making the experience a perfect 100 points!!
