The front desk staff went above and beyond—welcoming us with warm smiles and upgrading us to a room with floor-to-ceiling windows without hesitation. It’s clear they care about guest experience. But the real highlight? The stunning ocean view combined with the private outdoor hot spring. Soaking in the warm waters while gazing at the sea was pure bliss—any stress just melted away. This place feels like a true retreat, effortlessly blending comfort, beauty, and relaxation. I’d come back in a heartbeat and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable getaway.
Our company team-building event brought us to Huangjia Garden Binhai Hotel, and we couldn’t have been more pleased. The property is spacious and beautifully designed with a charming South Seas courtyard vibe—perfect for exploring and taking photos. All facilities are well-maintained and thoughtfully provided. Cleanliness was top-notch throughout the stay, and the overall environment felt peaceful and inviting. Staff were exceptionally friendly and attentive—from check-in to our afternoon tea experience. We especially appreciated the welcome fruit basket featuring fresh milk lychees, which our colleagues loved for their sweet, crisp flavor. The South Seas-themed afternoon tea was a highlight: elegant presentation, delicious pastries, and a relaxed atmosphere that made bonding over tea and conversation easy and enjoyable. It’s rare to find such a seamless blend of comfort, charm, and service. Highly recommend this hotel for groups or anyone looking for a memorable, stress-free getaway.
Our kids specifically asked to stay here — and we’re so glad they did! The room was fantastic, and even though it’s been two years since our last visit, it still feels brand new with clean, well-maintained furnishings. The only minor downside is the empty pool in the courtyard — it looks a bit bare without water, but adding some plants could really bring it to life. Still, the swing was a big hit — my kids were swinging non-stop and laughing their heads off! The location is super convenient, just a short walk from Sanqiutian Wharf, and the overall vibe is peaceful and charming. For families looking for a relaxing, authentic getaway on Gulangyu Island, this place is absolutely worth a return visit.

Staff were incredibly attentive too; they offered luggage storage before check-in, which made our arrival stress-free. It’s rare to find such a peaceful retreat with top-tier service and stunning scenery all in one.

Staying at Mid-Mountain Companion was an absolute delight—perfect for families or couples looking for a peaceful retreat.

The small swimming pool is ideal for kids to splash around in, and it also makes for a great spot to take Instagram-worthy photos. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, and since I’m not used to local flavors, I appreciated being able to cook my own meals—there’s a fully equipped stove in the room, and there’s a fresh grocery store nearby with excellent seafood at affordable prices. Plus, there are tons of local eateries right around the corner—authentic, budget-friendly street food, and don’t miss the legendary traditional shāngshuǐ (sweet grass jelly) shop. Everything about this stay felt genuine, comfortable, and hassle-free. No regrets at all—I’d definitely come back.
Stumbled upon this hidden gem on Gulangyu Island, and the room experience truly lives up to the hype! As soon as I opened the door, I was instantly drawn in by the warm wood tones paired with soft sheer curtains. The natural scent of the wooden furnishings, combined with the textured walls that exude a subtle wabi-sabi charm, created such a calming atmosphere. Sunlight streamed through the large windows, casting gentle shadows that danced across the space—pure serenity. Though the room isn’t huge, every inch is thoughtfully designed, making it feel spacious and uncluttered. The tatami-style bed was incredibly comfortable, layered with high-thread-count cotton-linen bedding that felt like sinking into a cloud, enhanced by a supportive memory foam mattress—perfect for unwinding after a full day exploring the island. The bathroom features a clean, separate dry zone with no lingering odors.

At night, the quiet was absolute, just the soft rustle of wind outside. No city noise, just peaceful stillness. It’s a rare blend of Japanese-inspired tranquility and the slow, authentic rhythm of life on Gulangyu. This place has already made my list for next time I visit Xiamen—I’d highly recommend it to anyone who loves minimalist, soulful stays.
This was my second stay at this hotel, and the experience was just as excellent as the first time. During New Year's period, the hotel was lively with plenty of family-friendly activities that kept the kids entertained. The guest manager, Xiao Luo, went above and beyond—she reached out before check-in to confirm details and checked in regularly during our stay to ensure everything was satisfactory. On checkout day, she even arranged a late departure without hassle, which was incredibly thoughtful. The room itself was spotless and comfortable, with soft bedding that made for a restful night’s sleep. The housekeeping staff were thorough and attentive, leaving no corner untouched. Every team member we interacted with showed genuine warmth and professionalism. From start to finish, the service felt personal and caring. It’s a perfect choice for families or anyone looking for a welcoming, well-run hotel. I’ll definitely be back and highly recommend it to others.
Check-in was a bit stressful at first, but the on-duty manager handled everything with great empathy and professionalism. After a calm conversation, the issue was resolved smoothly—and they even surprised me with afternoon tea, evening entertainment, and a bottle of wine. The next day’s airport transfer was excellent too; driver Andy was friendly, courteous, and helped carry my luggage without being asked. We had a pleasant chat throughout the ride. A few suggestions for improvement: the afternoon tea selection was limited, and the fruit—especially the watermelon—wasn’t very fresh. Dinner options were also quite narrow. The room stayed chilly despite running the heater all night—temperature barely reached 15°C, so adding a heating option would be helpful. Also, breakfast was missing some items, and they weren’t replenished promptly. That said, the overall experience was still positive. The staff responded quickly to feedback, and the views from the room were stunning—especially sunrise in the morning. One small disappointment: no capsule or instant coffee available, which is common even in budget hotels. Adding that would make the stay much more convenient for guests who rely on coffee.
This stay completely exceeded my expectations! The room was spacious and flooded with natural light—waking up to the morning sun felt incredibly peaceful and rejuvenating. Janice, the staff member who assisted with check-in, was warm, professional, and incredibly efficient—no long queues or delays. Dinner at the fourth-floor riverside restaurant was a highlight: the ambiance was serene and romantic, with breathtaking views of the city lights across the water. The cuisine was authentic Fujian-style, beautifully prepared and full of flavor—every dish stood out. Breakfast was equally impressive, offering a wide variety of options from local favorites to international choices. The entire property felt quiet and well-maintained, creating a perfect retreat for relaxation. Whether it’s for a weekend getaway with friends or a peaceful escape, this hotel delivers comfort, charm, and excellent value. I’ll definitely be back.
Staying at Marco Polo Xiamen was an absolute delight from start to finish. The value for money is outstanding—this level of luxury and service for the price is truly impressive. From the moment you walk in, the elegant lobby with live piano music sets a warm, welcoming tone. The staff at the entrance greet guests with genuine politeness, making you feel instantly at home. Check-in was smooth and friendly, with staff who were attentive, efficient, and always smiling. I especially appreciated Wendy—her professionalism and attention to detail made a big difference. The room itself was spotless, well-appointed, and fully equipped with essentials like a fridge, kettle, and hairdryer. Everything felt clean, modern, and thoughtfully designed. After a full day exploring Gulangyu Island, I didn’t even want to leave the hotel—I just wanted to stay longer. This experience exceeded all expectations. If you're visiting Xiamen, this is definitely a top choice. Highly recommend it!
Staying at Xiamen Xinan Yihao Hotel was an absolute highlight of my trip to Xiamen. The location is incredibly convenient—just a short walk from the train station and within easy reach of the airport, making travel arrangements seamless. From the moment I stepped into the lobby, I was impressed by the bright, elegant design that set a sophisticated tone for the whole experience. The room exceeded my expectations—clean, comfortable, and even more stylish than the photos online. The bedding was plush, the bathroom spotless, and the attention to detail in the decor really made it feel like a premium stay. Breakfast was a real treat: fresh, varied options with a standout highlight being the freshly cooked sacha noodles—rich, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. The coffee was smooth and satisfying, just right to kickstart the day. The staff, especially Manager Chen and the front desk team, were warm, attentive, and always ready to help—genuine hospitality that made a difference. And the neighborhood? Amazing. There’s no shortage of great local eats nearby, especially the famous Linxi Barbecue stall right across the street—perfect for late-night bites after a long day. If I ever come back to Xiamen, this will be my first choice. A top-tier hotel with unbeatable value and a welcoming vibe.
Staying at Conrad Xiamen was an absolute highlight of my trip to Xiamen. From the moment I stepped into the high-floor lobby, the breathtaking view of Gulangyu Island took my breath away—seriously, it’s one of the most stunning hotel entrances I’ve ever experienced. The service throughout the entire stay was flawless. Staff were warm, professional, and always attentive—check-in was smooth, and the room briefing was thorough and welcoming. The view from the room was incredible, with endless ocean vistas and modern, luxurious amenities that made every moment feel indulgent. Every detail, from the design to the thoughtful touches, exceeded expectations. This wasn’t just a place to sleep—it felt like a true retreat.
