Le Méridien Chanba Xi'an stands out on the banks of the Bahe River and stands out from the surrounding dwarf buildings. Opened in 2017, this is the fourteenth hotel opened by Le Méridien in Greater China and is owned by Marriott Starwood.
Unlike other hotels in Xi'an, Le Méridien Chanba does not overemphasize the Chinese style, both the building and the interior are very modern. The lobby is based on a light beige and yellow tone, and the color scheme is clean and comfortable. Suitcases, globes, binoculars and scooters can be found throughout the hotel, but the most eye-catching ornament is the "Terracotta Warriors on Vespa scooters" in the lobby. The yellow Vespa comes from the movie "Roman Holiday", representing a romantic, relaxed and pleasant vacation concept, combined with the terracotta warriors and horses with local characteristics of Xi'an, which instantly shortens the distance between tourists and the ancient city of Xi'an, which is a blend of French romance and Chinese ancient city. Although it is also a French-style resort, Le Méridien Chanba is a far cry from the Sofitel Legend, with the Sofitel Legend being more elegant and calm, while Le Méridien Chanba is more youthful, cheerful and fresh.
The hotel has a total of 291 shared rooms and suites. The rooms have panoramic windows with a wide view, all rooms can overlook the riverside scenery of the Bahe River, and some rooms can also look at the Chanba Wetland Park, which is a highlight of the hotel. There is a bathtub by the window, and guests can enjoy the riverside scenery while soaking in the bath, watching the egrets hovering on the banks of the Bahe River, making people forget the tense urban life for a while, and have a sense of idleness like idle clouds and wild cranes. Another highlight of the hotel is the opening of the Le Méridien Pet Room, some of which are called "Pet Rooms", which allow pets and are equipped with basic pet-specific appliances. If you want to bring your pet to stay in the hotel, you need to contact the hotel to make an appointment in advance, provide a quarantine report for the pet for the past three months and add a certain pet service fee. Although the hotel provides basic pet equipment, some guests consider it to be of average quality, and guests with pets can bring their own pet equipment, just in case. A complimentary coffee voucher is included in the room, and guests can redeem a latte at the Latitude 34 Lobby Lounge on the first floor. In addition, Le Méridien's room cards are diverse and distinctive, and can be kept as a souvenir after check-out.
The hotel's restaurants have different styles, namely Hanjiang Korean Barbecue Restaurant, Le Mei Chinese Restaurant and New Recipe All Day Dining Restaurant, which are guaranteed and relatively affordable, and many non-guests often come here to dine. In addition to the general chocolate, vanilla and coffee flavors, there are also special dishes of mash flavors, which are mellow and slightly winey, which not only cater to the taste of Xi'an locals, but also feast on foreign tourists, which is worth tasting.
The hotel has complete leisure and entertainment facilities. There is a small children's playground on the first floor, with small slides, building blocks and other toys for children to play, which not only allows children to have their own activity space, but also allows parents to be busy. The hotel's gym is decorated in a modern style, with rows of floor-to-ceiling windows making the gym appear spacious and bright. The gym is equipped with fitness equipment such as treadmills, bicycle machines, elliptical machines and supine boards. Treadmills, elliptical machines and other facilities face out of the window, so guests can enjoy the scenery outside the window while exercising. The indoor swimming pool is spacious, and the heated swimming pool is only open to hotel guests, which is more private. The floor-to-ceiling windows are full of beautiful views of the Bahe River, and guests can swim in the water and look at the Bahe River from afar, which is quite interesting.
