The Westin Xi'an is the hotel travel sites recommend most often for Xi'an, and its address explains why: 66 Ci'en Road, in Qujiang just steps from the [Big Wild Goose Pagoda](/en/places/big-wild-goose-pagoda), the pagoda fountain and the [Grand Tang Ever-Bright City](/en/places/grand-tang-ever-bright-city) night boulevard. It is a full-service Marriott five-star with a Heavenly Spa, an indoor pool, a Westin Club lounge and a rare extra: the Xi'an Qujiang Museum of Fine Arts operates inside the same building. TripAdvisor ranks it at or near the top of the city's luxury hotels on thousands of reviews. The trade-off is distance from the old walled city: the Bell Tower and Muslim Quarter are a metro ride or a 20–30 minute taxi away. Choose it if you want calm evenings near the pagoda, pool-and-spa downtime between sightseeing days, and dependable international service.

It's the wrong place to overspend if your nights revolve around the Muslim Quarter — that's a metro ride or a 20–30-minute taxi away, and an inside-the-wall hotel would serve you better.

- Walk out the door to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda and the full length of the Grand Tang Ever-Bright City boulevard
- The Shaanxi History Museum is an easy hop on the same lines
