Take a nap Hotel. Xi'an Xianyang International Airport Terminal 3

Traveling the world with kids, my philosophy is to stay wherever we land, avoiding rushed nights and schedules. This time, our late flight arrived at Xi'an Xianyang Airport T3 at 11:30 PM. Since there's a dedicated shuttle to the Terracotta Warriors leaving at 9:15 AM the next morning from Xianyang Airport, we opted to stay at the airport. This 'Miyi Hui Hotel' (or 'Sleep Well Hotel') allows you to check into your cabin right after landing, near Gate 314. They offer wake-up calls, which is essential to ensure the kids get enough sleep so they have the energy to see the Terracotta Warriors the next day. The bedding was quite clean; just remember to be considerate and avoid loud noises or rustling plastic bags that might disturb others. The price was also affordable. For washing, you use the airport's shared facilities, and there’s plenty of hot water. The airport also has restaurants if you get hungry. I've also attached a picture of the shuttle to the Terracotta Warriors. Make sure to book in advance, as there are only 8 tickets per bus. Arrive half an hour early in the morning. With kids, avoid rushing. Walk for about 10 minutes to the long-distance bus station across from the airport (marked with a circled head in the picture) to exchange your ticket first. The 9:15 AM bus goes directly to Lishan Garden in about an hour. Get off there, tour Lishan Garden first. Personally, I don't think a guide is necessary here; listening to the 'APP Travel Assistant' is enough. Then, take the free shuttle to the Terracotta Warriors (make sure to book on the official WeChat account about 7 days in advance, then purchase the minivan tickets via the 'Chuxing 365' mini-program; children also pay the full price of 49 yuan). The timetable I'm holding is for the return shuttle from Lintong to the airport via the 'Hongtu Chuxing' mini-program, so please check it carefully. We booked our Terracotta Warriors visit for 11:30 AM to 12:30 PM. The airport mini-bus arrived at Lishan Garden at 10 AM. After exploring Lishan Garden on the electric cart for about 1.5 hours, we took the free shuttle to the Terracotta Warriors, which is about a 5-minute ride. Inside the Terracotta Warriors museum, note that the official guides take you further and further in, right into the main hall where the warriors are displayed. Their explanations are very professional, covering everything in a very official manner, and the price is reasonable. If you're not in a hurry and are traveling independently without a tour group, you can first follow an official guide at the Terracotta Warriors. After an initial overview, take a break. After 4 PM, there are significantly fewer people, so it won't be crowded. You can then leisurely admire Pit 1. Bring binoculars and a magnifying glass (or 'bug viewer') to get a good look at the facial expressions of the Terracotta Warriors. For those with kids, I recommend bringing anti-lost wristbands so you don't lose them in the crowds.

I had a layover with a free overnight stay included for the second day. However, since I was traveling alone, I didn't want to share a room with strangers, which would have meant paying an extra fee. So, I figured I might as well stay on my own. I preferred not to leave the airport, and I really like these small, capsule-style accommodations when I'm by myself; they make me feel very secure.

It was quite convenient, but I didn't realize that Spring Airlines operates from T5, and this hotel isn't located there. You need to take a shuttle bus. I'd definitely recommend checking carefully and choosing a hotel that's close to your terminal, otherwise, it's just like staying at an off-site hotel.

Thanks to modern technology, even in a small space, the facilities are complete. I imagine kids would particularly love it because it's so new and unique. It's incredibly convenient for travelers rushing to catch flights. I'll definitely choose this option again next time.

This stay was fantastic! The hotel's location is super convenient, and the room was spotlessly clean, spacious, and bright. The bedding was soft and comfortable, and the soundproofing was excellent, ensuring a truly restful sleep. The front desk staff were incredibly warm and attentive, making check-in quick and efficient. Housekeeping was thorough and thoughtful. The facilities were comprehensive, the environment was quiet and elegant, and it offered great value for money. Overall, I was extremely satisfied and will definitely choose this hotel again for my next trip. Highly recommended!

I stayed here for one night to catch an early morning flight the next day, and the service was quite good.
