As a hotel review blogger, I recently experienced the Lavande Hotel branch in Xi'an. I have to say, as a mid-range brand under Jinjiang Hotels, Lavande truly has its own unique charm.
1. Location: Unbeatable convenience
This Lavande Hotel is located at No. 99 Changying West Road, Xincheng District, Xi'an, on the 1st floor of Daniel Trade West Area. The location is excellent:
✅ Subway access: Only a 2-minute walk from Exit A of Hujia Temple Station on Metro Line 3, a true subway-over-hotel
✅ Nearby attractions: About 20 minutes by car to famous spots like the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, Tang Paradise, Bell and Drum Towers, Yongxingfang, and Muslim Street

2. Hotel facilities and services

1⃣ Lobby experience: Upon entering, a faint lavender scent immediately relaxes you. The front desk staff are professional and efficient, providing 24-hour service.
2⃣ Room facilities: The hotel has 117 rooms. I stayed in their deluxe king room and found the amenities quite good:
3⃣ Sleep system: Uses DeRUCCI mattresses, medium firmness with good support—I slept soundly through the night

6. Tips for visiting
1⃣ Best check-in time: Check-in after 2:00 PM, check-out before 12:00 PM. If arriving early, you can store your luggage and explore nearby first.
2⃣ Transportation: Subway is the most convenient; just walk a few minutes straight from Exit A of Hujia Temple Station.
3⃣ Breakfast advice: If planning to eat breakfast at the hotel, go early for a wider variety.

🚫 Notes:
👉 Breakfast variety could be richer
👉 Check-in during peak times may require a short wait
Overall, Lavande Hotel (Xi'an Xijing Hospital Hujia Temple Metro Station branch) offers a great experience, with a rating of 4.8 out of 5. Whether for business trips, sightseeing, or visiting patients and friends, it’s an excellent choice. Especially for travelers seeking comfortable sleep and convenient transportation, this hotel is highly recommended. Next time I visit Xi'an, I might choose this place again.
