The free round-trip luggage transfer from the pier was a game-changer—especially arriving on the last ferry with multiple suitcases and backpacks. The driver contacted me in advance and waited right at the exit, taking all our bags without any hassle. He even gave us a local restaurant recommendation—so thoughtful! On departure, each bag was neatly labeled and left at the pier’s Suxiaotang shop under professional supervision—no stress at all. The sea-view afternoon tea in the century-old villa was pure bliss. Though listed as for two, it easily served our group of four—delicate tea, delicious pastries, fresh fruit, all enjoyed while overlooking the ocean. Service was surprisingly smooth despite having only one staff member handling everything: remote inquiries, check-in, room service—all while being a first-day employee. Yet he remained calm, friendly, and efficient. Room amenities were spot-on: kid-friendly slippers, a full laundry setup with washer and dryer, plus a drying rack. Free umbrellas are available throughout the property—such a nice touch. And location? Unbeatable. Our balcony offered direct sea views, and the beach is just a 200-meter stroll away—perfect for families with kids. This place truly delivers on comfort, convenience, and charm.
Staying at Xiamen Lujiang Harbourview Hotel felt like stepping into a timeless classic—just as iconic as Shanghai’s Peace Hotel. We arrived late and had plenty of parcels delivered to the hotel, but the staff went above and beyond with genuine warmth and care. The room was incredibly comfortable, the breakfast delicious, and even the tissues had a subtle sweet scent—a small detail that made a big difference. Sitting on the balcony overlooking Gulangyu Island’s sea views was pure relaxation. The memory foam pillow was perfect for a restful night’s sleep. The front desk staff, especially Miss Hong Anqi, was incredibly kind and friendly—so sweet, I asked for an empty card as a keepsake, and she personally picked out the latest one for me. The housekeeping team also responded quickly whenever needed. This is more than just a place to stay—it’s a memorable experience. I’ll definitely come back every time I visit Xiamen. Truly exceptional hospitality and attention to detail.
Following the photos provided by the staff made finding the hotel super easy—right across from San Yi Tang, so it’s very easy to spot. What stood out most was the luggage transfer service; traveling with an elderly person and a child, I can’t imagine managing without it. Navigating around Gulangyu is notoriously tricky, but the visual guidance really saved the day. The breakfast was thoughtfully prepared and incredibly delicious, and the afternoon tea set was a delightful bonus. Sipping tea in the second-floor garden felt like a peaceful retreat—perfect for unwinding and even saving money on coffee. Overall, this stay was exceptional from start to finish. The hospitality, attention to detail, and serene atmosphere make it a must-visit. Highly recommended!
The room was spotless and the sea view was absolutely breathtaking—truly unforgettable. Upon arrival, the hotel proactively called to check on our needs, which showed such thoughtful service. Our original twin-bed room wasn’t ideal for traveling with kids, so they instantly upgraded us to a family-friendly room with an enormous bed—perfect for everyone! One highlight was the kids’ play area on the 4th floor. We called ahead, and within just one minute, someone opened the door. Even though it was just us, the concierge manager Andy Yang personally stayed with our child, playing games and keeping him entertained—our little one had a blast. When we were leaving, Andy walked us all the way to the car, reminded the kid to dress warmly, and made sure he wouldn’t catch a cold. That level of care truly touched us. From start to finish, every detail felt personal and warm. This place isn’t just a hotel—it’s a home away from home. I’ll definitely come back here next time I visit Xiamen.
This hotel exceeded all my expectations! The room was immaculately clean—linens and bedding were spotless, and the bathroom was fresh and odor-free.

But what really stands out is the location—right next to the bustling Zhongshan Road pedestrian street and just steps from the metro station. Getting around the city is so convenient, and I can’t wait to come back. A perfect blend of comfort, cleanliness, and prime positioning—highly recommend!
We stayed at this hotel during the New Year holiday with our own car, and the main reason for choosing it was the availability of parking — especially important during peak seasons when spaces fill up quickly. We were lucky to secure a spot on a first-come, first-served basis, which worked out well. My room was from the original section, not the recently renovated wing, but cleanliness was excellent — everything felt fresh, including crisp linens and a spotless bathroom with no water stains. The staff went above and beyond: front desk personnel and housekeeping were friendly and helpful, even offering me a tea set for my stay — such a thoughtful touch. One thing to note: the elevator requires a room key card, so food deliveries had to be left in the lobby. However, walking to the bustling Baishi Market only takes about 10–15 minutes (including crossing busy intersections), making it easy to explore local street food and vibe. Overall, despite minor logistics, the location, cleanliness, and warm service made this a truly enjoyable stay. I’d definitely come back if I visit Xiamen again.
We arrived on the island early in the morning before check-in time, and to our delight, the hotel offered a complimentary room upgrade and allowed us to check in ahead of schedule.

We first visited Gulangyu 13 years ago and stayed at Yuanshazhou — now, bringing our daughter along for a family trip to Xiamen, we chose this villa again without hesitation. It was just as wonderful as we remembered. The room itself was spotless, well-equipped, and offered breathtaking sea views. The location is perfect — just a short walk from the pier yet peaceful and quiet, far from the city noise. We especially loved meeting the resident cat, Chunfu, who added such a warm, homely touch.

Breakfast was simple but satisfying, with good-quality local flavors. Overall, the experience was exceptional. We’ll definitely recommend this place to friends and will be back for another stay next time we visit Gulangyu.
I recently stayed at Holiday Inn Xiagu Wharf Sea World Branch in Xiamen and couldn't be more satisfied with my experience. The room was spotlessly clean, with excellent hygiene standards that made me feel comfortable and relaxed throughout my stay. One of the biggest perks? Parking right beneath the hotel—super convenient, especially if you're arriving by car. I also want to give a special shout-out to the front desk staff, Xiao Min and Xiu Xiu—their hospitality was outstanding. They were friendly, attentive, and went above and beyond. I accidentally left my tablet behind after check-out, and just minutes later, I received a call from the hotel alerting me about it. That kind of proactive service is rare and truly appreciated. It’s clear they care about their guests’ experience. This hotel offers great value for money, and I’ll definitely return next time I visit Xiamen. Highly recommended for travelers looking for comfort, convenience, and genuine care.
