It is situated in the core business district of the city center, close to historical landmarks such as the Bell Tower, Xi 'an City Wall and Drum Tower. It is a 45-minute drive from Xianyang International Airport, forming a golden triangle of "history - transportation - hotel". As the fifth Sofitel Legend hotel in the world and the first in China, the hotel was formerly the People's Building built in 1953. After a luxurious renovation in 2014, it retained the historical texture of the building and integrated French retro style with Chinese elements - spiral stairs, European mirrors, classical paintings and wooden grilles interwoven. The 7,000-square-meter landscape garden features a medieval French court fountain, creating an immersive historical experience of "a new scene at every step".
The hotel features a total of 71 peak forest view guest rooms and suites, including various room types such as Deluxe Suites, Supreme Suites and Chang 'an Suites, with areas ranging from 45 to 183 square meters. Each room is equipped with Hermes bath products, Sofitel MyBed custom bedding, an intelligent temperature control system and sound-controlled curtains throughout the house. Some suites have 270-degree garden terraces or starry sky skylights, offering a dreamy experience of "lying down to watch the moon in the ancient city". The executive floor offers exclusive butler services and top-level security guarantees. The family rooms are equipped with children's play facilities and cartoon-themed decorations to meet diverse needs.
The dining space blends French luxury with local flavors: The Roman Holiday Italian restaurant specializes in freshly made Caesar salad, seafood pasta, thin pizza and tiramisu, paired with the "Chang 'an Sunset" special cocktail. Le Xuan Hua Restaurant takes Tang-style cuisine as its core, presenting Shaanxi official cuisine and classic Cantonese cuisine. Its signature dishes are ice-braised three-layered pork and stewed free-range chicken with stone olives. The 1953 Lobby Bar offers Happy Hour soft drinks and snacks every day, accompanied by guqin performances and Tang-style poetry and painting shows. The hotel specially offers a "History Explorer" service, allowing you to book a guided tour of the People's Building Museum (featuring historical photos from the 1950s and archives of celebrity receptions), a bike ride on the city wall, and an experience of the intangible cultural heritage tie-dyeing workshop.
The recreational facilities are characterized by "French healing". The 25-meter constant-temperature swimming pool features a transparent roof design, allowing you to enjoy the palm tree landscape while swimming. The 24-hour Fitness center is equipped with high-end Life Fitness equipment and Tang-style murals. The spa center offers traditional Chinese massage, aromatherapy and Tang-style medicinal baths, combined with floor heating, heat pump and air conditioning to achieve a comfortable experience of "cool in summer and warm in winter".
