Hong Kong, 30 June 2026 – Langham Hospitality Group’s (LHG’s) Cordis Hotels & Resorts brand has landed in Airport New City, a rapidly evolving district adjacent to the visually striking fifth terminal at Xi’an Xianyang International Airport – the primary aviation hub serving both the Xi’an and Xianyang metropolitan areas. Cordis, Xi’an – like the terminal – blends Tang Dynasty-inspired design with the energy of modern travel to create a grand arrival experience worthy of its namesake’s historical role as China’s imperial capital and the starting point of the Silk Road – the storied travel route that made the city a vital nexus for transportation, trade and cultural exchange.
Xi’an today remains one of China’s most culturally significant destinations, known for historic landmarks such as the Terracotta Warriors, the old City Wall and the Giant Wild Goose Pagoda, while also serving as a major economic hub. Airport New City sharpens the appeal of the metropolis by creating a compelling launchpad from which to explore its celebrated heritage and tap into its growing commercial opportunities. Cordis, Xi'an takes its place within this evolving landscape, offering travellers a new haven from which to experience one of China's most celebrated municipalities.
Cordis, Xi’an.
The hotel houses 252 guestrooms and suites alongside extensive dining, wellness and event offerings. Its standout features include a vast pillarless ballroom inspired by the grandeur of Silk Road-era mansions, a Ming Court restaurant serving Cantonese and Shaanxi cuisine, and a guestroom design concept reinterpreting the three-courtyard layout synonymous with the Tang Dynasty.
Reflecting a shared vision between LHG and Xi’an Hao Rui Property Co., Ltd., the hotel’s developer, Cordis, Xi’an seeks to create a hospitality journey that responds the evolving aspirations of visitors to the region. Combining internationally recognised service standards with a strong sense of local character, the hotel has been purpose-built to cater to a broad range of business and leisure traveller needs.
"Xi'an is entering an exciting new phase of growth, driven by its continued role as a tourist destination and expanding importance as a commercial centre,” LHG Chief Executive Officer Bob van den Oord said. “We see strong demand for a hotel capable of serving the broad range of experiences visitors to the city now seek, whether for personal or professional endeavours. Cordis, Xi'an is well positioned to meet that demand, embodying the Cordis ethos of helping guests pursue what matters most to them."
This ethos underpins the brand’s new “Let Your Heart Rule” campaign. Rooted in the Latin derivation of Cordis – “of the heart” – the campaign calls on travellers to follow their passions through activities shaped by authenticity, personal meaning and human connection. At Cordis, Xi’an, this philosophy will come to life through offerings ranging from locally inspired dining and wellness programmes to bespoke leisure and business initiatives designed to help guests immerse themselves more deeply in the destination.
