Probably other virtualization technology have the same issue, do not use ntp. I do not know for certain.
With xen, my guests run ntpd and have xen.independent_wallclock=1.
And both host and guest try to adjust the speed of the mother board hardware clock chip? (not the bios clock, that's a very different one).
No, only the Dom0 does that. The guests are independent when you use xen.independent_wallclock=1.

But if you run the ntp daemon on guests, it tries to adjust the speed of the clock there. That's how it works.
