Discovering China’s Ancient Capital at Renaissance Xi’an

Xi’an is one of the oldest of the four great ancient capitals of China and is home of the world-famous Terracotta Army, dating back to the third century BCE. The new Renaissance Xi’an is the first Renaissance-branded hotel to open in northwest China, and it is strategically located next to Xi’an Qujiang International Convention and Conference Center, an easy 40-minute drive from Xi’an Xianyang International Airport.

Renaissance Hotels design aesthetic welcomes guests in, encouraging to make each space their own. Look and look again moments engage guests, infused juxtapositions with high-low elements create a sense of true placemaking embracing the DNA of the locale.
