Staying at Echeng Hotel was an absolutely excellent experience. The room was spotlessly clean, spacious, and incredibly comfortable—especially the bedding, which made for a restful night’s sleep. The location is unbeatable: right next to Zhongshan Road Pedestrian Street and just steps from the metro station, making shopping, dining, and exploring super convenient. The staff were warm, professional, and helpful—they checked us in quickly and even gave great recommendations for local eateries. Breakfast was diverse and delicious, with a nice mix of Western and Chinese options. Everything about this hotel screams value for money without compromising on quality or service. I’d highly recommend it to anyone visiting Xiamen, and I’ll definitely be staying here again on my next trip.
As a visitor from Taiwan, I was thrilled to return to Xiamen for my second visit, staying here for three nights during the summer holiday (I previously stayed in room R720). This time I was in room R627, and while the overall experience was still excellent, there was one small downside—the bathroom had a lingering urine smell that never fully dissipated. I’d recommend checking ventilation or cleaning protocols in that area. However, the breakfast was absolutely fantastic—freshly made noodles with a great taste and a wide variety of options. It felt like a real treat each morning. The hotel is also super convenient for exploring local eats: just a short bus ride away from Malong She Food Street, and even closer to Dianqian Qingshui Temple and Chaotian Temple, both located in vibrant urban villages packed with delicious street food. If I ever come back to Xiamen, I’ll definitely choose Echarm Hotel Torch Garden Station again—it’s well-located, comfortable, and offers great value. Highly recommended!
Absolutely loved this hidden gem! The Borrman Hotel (Xiamen Gaoqi Airport Dongdu Ferry Terminal) is beautifully decorated with festive Christmas touches that really set the mood. Located just steps away from the metro station, it's incredibly convenient for exploring the city and grabbing a bite to eat. The room layout is smart and well-thought-out—especially the bathroom with proper separation of wet and dry areas, and the hot water pressure is fantastic, making every shower a real treat. For the price, the value is outstanding. The front desk staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, even patiently guiding me around the area. I’d stay here again in a heartbeat and would definitely recommend it to friends and fellow travelers.
Staying at Echarm Hotel Xiamen Zhongshan Road Pedestrian Street was an absolute delight. Located right on the bustling Zhongshan Road walking street, everything you could want—restaurants, cafes, shops, and entertainment—is just steps away. I loved how easy it was to explore the area on foot, and it only took a few minutes to reach Zhongshan Road Pier for some seaside views. The room was spacious and comfortably furnished, with excellent amenities and a spotless bathroom. Despite being on a busy street, the double-glazed windows kept the noise out completely, so I slept like a baby. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive—they even upgraded my room for free, which was such a nice surprise. From location to service, this place truly delivers. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Xiamen!
Staying at this hotel was a total delight from start to finish. The location is unbeatable—right by the seaside, with stunning views every morning.

Hot water was consistent and reliable, making for a relaxing shower after a long day. The staff truly stood out—they were friendly, attentive, and went above and beyond. I mentioned needing an extra blanket and a towel, and it arrived within minutes. They even offered helpful travel tips and luggage storage, which made my trip so much smoother. It’s just a 10-minute walk to Gulangyu Island, where I spent a peaceful afternoon exploring the colonial gardens and sipped a coffee for just $2.50. Plus, there’s a metro station nearby—super convenient. This place offers amazing value for the price, and honestly, it’s one of the best stays I’ve had in Xiamen. Would definitely come back.
This was my solo trip to Xiamen for a training session, and staying at Urba Hotel (Xiamen Airport Huli Avenue) turned out to be one of the best decisions. I arrived late at night, and the staff immediately checked in to see if I had any special needs. Since I wanted a quiet room, they promptly assigned me a unit far from the elevator—perfect for a good night's rest. The next morning, I tried to sleep in but was disturbed by ongoing construction noise. Instead of just ignoring it, the front desk proactively offered to stop the work if it bothered me—I just needed to message them. They even followed up later via WeChat to confirm whether the noise had affected my rest. That level of care and attention is rare these days. The service went above and beyond, making the entire stay incredibly comfortable and stress-free. Highly recommend this hotel for both business travelers and solo visitors alike.
We arrived on a rainy day and were pleasantly surprised when the host upgraded us to a better room for free—since another guest had canceled their booking. The lobby is spacious and welcoming, with a long table perfect for working or relaxing, plus a microwave available for guests’ convenience. On a sunny day, sitting in the backyard with a cup of tea would be absolutely ideal. The room itself was spotless and beautifully designed with a minimalist, modern touch. Everything you’d need was provided: shampoo, body wash, toothbrushes, towels, bath sheets, hairdryer, electric kettle—all thoughtfully included. The water heater delivered strong, consistent hot water, making showers very comfortable. We even got plastic slippers for use in the bathroom. The bed was incredibly cozy, and we slept like babies. Even though it was raining during our stay, lying in bed listening to the gentle sound of rain tapping against the balcony window was oddly peaceful. There were few other guests around, so the place felt quiet and intimate. While the property isn’t right next to a metro station, getting there by taxi or bus was easy and convenient. Unfortunately, we couldn’t explore the neighborhood due to the weather, but I’ll definitely come back if I visit Xiamen again. This place offers an unbeatable mix of comfort, charm, and value—highly recommend!
Staying at Super 8 Hotel Premier Xiamen Railway Station was an absolute highlight of my trip.

The breakfast buffet offers a decent variety, and staff are attentive—they constantly check the food supply and refill promptly, which is a nice touch. Front desk team were friendly and efficient, handling any request without delay. Housekeeping did a fantastic job too—rooms were spotless every day, quiet, and well-lit with natural light. It’s clear they care about guest comfort. For such a central location in Xiamen Island, the price point is incredibly reasonable. This hotel delivers excellent value across the board. If you're visiting Xiamen and want convenience, cleanliness, and a welcoming atmosphere, this is the place to stay. I’d definitely recommend it to friends and fellow travelers.
I can't say enough good things about Fumanrenjia Hotel (Xiamen Zhongshan Road Railway Station)! From the moment I walked in, everything felt clean, welcoming, and well-maintained. The room was spotless—every corner tidy, the bedding fresh, and the overall ambiance so peaceful that I slept like a baby. The staff truly stood out: the front desk lady was warm and helpful, always smiling and ready to assist with anything. The security guard went above and beyond—he even reminded me to wear a warmer jacket during the cold winter days, which showed real care.

This was my second stay at this hotel, and as a local from southern Fujian, I’ve chosen it twice now when returning from Europe—just needing a quiet place to recover from jet lag. The experience was excellent: the room was spotless, spacious, and comfortably furnished. Its location is unbeatable—just a short walk to Zhongshan Road Pedestrian Street and the bustling Baishi Market, with everything you’d want within easy reach. What stood out most was the incredible value for money—this is one of the few genuinely affordable yet high-quality hotels in Xiamen. The room quality rivals that of established luxury options like Lujing Hotel, but at a fraction of the price. My first visit? I originally booked another hotel nearby, but when I arrived and saw the worn-out exterior, I immediately canceled. Later, I passed by this property and noticed the clean, modern look, so I decided to check in. The staff were incredibly welcoming—they personally showed me through several room types, which helped ease my concerns. Their genuine hospitality made all the difference. It’s clear they care about guest comfort. Definitely coming back next time—and I’ll recommend them to anyone visiting Xiamen.
We stayed here as a family, and we were thoroughly impressed! The hotel is perfectly located—just a short walk from the metro, quiet yet convenient, and surrounded by great local spots. Even though it's not brand new, the upkeep is excellent: clean rooms, well-maintained common areas, and a nice overall vibe that feels upscale for the price. We didn’t need to rely on rideshares—we could easily hail a cab right outside the door to get anywhere in town. The neighborhood is fantastic for food lovers: there’s a wide variety of eateries nearby. I especially recommend Wu Zai Tian Snack Shop—it’s a local favorite with authentic flavors. And yes, we finally got to try the famous balang (sea slug) jelly again, which was a nostalgic treat after years of missing it. If you're visiting Xiamen with kids or family, this hotel is a top pick!
This stay completely exceeded my expectations! The hotel's location is unbeatable—just a short walk from Songyu Wharf, making it super convenient for exploring the area. The lobby has a clean, minimalist design with a subtle, calming scent that instantly puts you at ease. The room was spotless—every corner meticulously cleaned—and the bedding felt luxurious against the skin. The mattress struck the perfect balance: firm enough for support but soft enough for comfort. Combined with blackout curtains that blocked out all light, I had one of the best nights' sleep in recent memory. The bathroom features smart dry/wet separation, and the hot water pressure was strong and consistent throughout. High-quality toiletries added to the overall premium feel. Staff were incredibly friendly and efficient during check-in, and they even offered thoughtful recommendations for nearby attractions. This place offers incredible value and charm—definitely a top pick if you're visiting Xiamen for a relaxing getaway.
