    Location is great! You can see the Gulangyu island right infront of the window if you book the right room type. Room is also spacious. Receptionist staff is great. Especially the operator Ms. He.

    Room aircon temperature not very cold as it is not adjustable.

    I enjoyed the hotel stay so much. Comfortable, clean, spacious, good gym facilities, and great that we paid a bit more to have nice view of Gulangyu island. The hotel staff are well trained, courteous and helpful. Especially thankful to Room supervisor 耿红艳who decorated my room with a pair of swan towel art ❤️. Hotel location is perfect, 10-15 min walk to the Zhongshan walking street.

    Lounge bar on the 26th floor closes at 8 pm. Service in the whiskey bar was not on par with the reception, a little too directive.

    Spacious room with a very nice view overlooking the Gulanyu island, a main landmark of Xiamen. Attentive reception staff, who upgraded us due to late readiness of our room. Fully functioning amenities. Beautiful rooftop view, made accessible to us by Aoma who was very helpful. Great location to get around the central shopping area and the harbor, and great value for money.

    Room has a smell of cigarette, yet the front desk refused to change the room...but they did offer to spray air freshener and provide a humidifier

    The room was spacious and clean. The location is ideal as it's within walking distance to Zhong Shang Rd. The doormen were also very helpful to guests with luggage

    The rooms were kind of hot and stuffy (unable to adjust temperature). The attitude of the staff members could be a bit warmer / more courteous.

    Great location with good views of Gulangyu Island and the waterfront. Plenty of restaurant options nearby. Hotel breakfast was tasty albeit a bit expensive by local standards.

    We have added breakfirst but was charged for the kid below 1.2 m despite we were being told during the booking that breakfast was free for kid’s height below 1.2 m. During check-out I have asked for the bill print out and had pointed out that it was being charged for the kid’s breakfast. As we need to depart for airport to catch our flight , I did not verify the correction despite the front desk lady has verbally informed that it has been corrected. I have not check the credit card bill on the correction yet. I hope hotel can make improvement in this area.

    Non-smoking rooms and environment is superb. Comfortable environment.

    The stay was ok, some of the furniture was a little dusty but acceptable.

    The best part was probably our experience with 吴琳 (Vinnie). After checking out, we waited at the waiting area and 吴琳 kindly approached us for assistance. She even offered to safekeep our luggage if we wanted to shop around and gave us some candies while we waited. Really appreciate the kind and extraordinary service rendered. Kudos to you, 吴琳!

    Except for buffet breakfast, most restaurants open after 11am. It would be nice to have restaurant opened early so that we can relax and enjoy our brunch without using room service.

    Excellent location and view, great food and we used both the 24hrs room service and the breakfast room services, and the food were great. the restaurant also is great with great view and service for a very reasonable price, the top floor offers afternoon tea with a birds-eye-view of the Gulangyu island.
