Mountain view Hotels in Xiamen

From the moment we booked the room, a dedicated butler group was created for us. They bought our round-trip ferry tickets, and upon disembarking, a butler was waiting at the pier to help with our luggage—we didn't have to carry anything ourselves. Our butler, Isak, was incredibly thoughtful. He not only planned a route to Gulangyu Island that avoided the crowds, but also went out to buy me medicine when he knew I wasn't feeling well. This friend-like care was so heartwarming. The room's details were impeccable: Aesop toiletries, a Wenxian turndown fragrance, a handwritten welcome note, a complimentary minibar, and even a different set of Gulangyu poems on gold-flecked paper by the bedside each day. The turndown service drew the curtains, lit the aromatherapy, and even prepared a meditation chair—truly taking ”natural healing” to the extreme.

This B&B is absolutely beautiful! It's very close to the sea, and the rooms are wonderfully quiet – you can't hear any outside noise. The view from the window, with trees and the ocean, is incredibly relaxing and therapeutic. The reception service was exceptionally nice; even before I stepped onto the B&B's doorstep, a staff member rushed out to help us with our luggage. Every single staff member (including the auntie who cleaned the rooms!) was soft-spoken and very gentle. The breakfast was also delicious! I booked for three nights, and every morning I woke up to a different breakfast spread. You can tell this B&B genuinely takes pride in itself and truly cares about every guest who stays here! Highly recommend!!

My friend and I stayed on the island for five days and four nights. I've been to Gulangyu a few times before, so I have a love-hate relationship with its old houses. While they're beautiful, they often lack a certain refinement, and many have that typical musty, damp smell when you open the door. This time, staying at Linggan Anyu absolutely blew us away. We were amazed by the impeccable service, the exquisitely tasteful decor, the meticulous attention to detail, and the fact that despite being an old house, the air was fresh with no hint of mustiness. The meticulous cleaning staff also impressed us. In short, everything was wonderful – it was my most comfortable stay ever. It made me realize that even for B&Bs, professional hotel management is key to a truly pleasant experience. Thank you to everyone at Linggan Hotel for your hard work; as an island enthusiast, I'll definitely be back!

I arrived in a torrential downpour, dusty and weary from the journey, but seeing a cute big black dog sleeping in the hotel immediately made me feel warm and fuzzy. The room was fully equipped, clean, and tidy overall. As dusk fell, the indoor lighting created a lovely ambiance. Opening the door, the small courtyard with bamboo shadows swaying and cicadas chirping after the rain was quite enchanting. I imagine it would be a wonderful spot to just relax and unwind when the weather is cool and dry. Oh, and the two young men working there were also very kind and friendly. They helped me with my luggage, gave me a paper map (I appreciate such artistic touches), and even brought breakfast to my room, telling me to ask for more if it wasn't enough. My personal stay was quite pleasant. If I had to mention any tips, I'd say bring mosquito repellent, as there are many mosquitoes on the island. Also, the breakfast is simple and home-style, not like a fancy hotel buffet, so that's something to consider based on personal preference. I would definitely consider staying here again next time I'm on the island. Thanks for the hospitality! (◍•͈⌔•͈◍)

This is a very good hotel. It is right next to the shopping mall, so restaurants and coffee shops are everywhere. We really appreciated the friendly front desk staff getting us an upgraded room. It is spacious, cleaned, comfortable, and fully stocked with everything we need. We love their long and cleaned pool. It’s perfect for lap swimmers. Definitely we will recommend this hotel to our friends and family.

First of all, the location is pretty amazing. There are plenty of really good food around. The street food nearby is decent, albeit a little pricey. A few of the restaurants nearby are very good for the price. It's also super close within walking distance to a Sam's Club, which is the China equivalent of a CostCo or Walmart.. You'll need membership to get in, so do try to get a friend to help. Ordering deliveries from Taobao or ******* to this hotel was also pretty amazing. Everything came ahead of time and unbroken. Every room's sound isolation was amazing, with heavy doors that were sealed down to the very bottom edges. The carpark was also VERY large. It was enough for 3 large tour buses to park overnight, and yet still had room for lots of cars and bikes. Hotel service was responsive, but was not proactive and lacked initiative. What's bad are the facilities and attention to detail: 1) They put air purifiers next to wide open windows. What's the point of that? Are you trying to filter the air for the entire city? 2) We were given non-smoking rooms, but there are ash trays in the rooms and the whole corridors and elevators smell of cigarettes for the weekend we stayed. Please separate smoking guests on their own floors. 3) The HVAC and air conditioning triggered my allergies the whole stay. I'm pretty sure they do not clean the HVAC pipes and ducts, given the amount of smoking guests.

Facilities: The hotel room is spacious and features a large balcony with a sea view. The infinity pool on the fifth floor is just the right size, not too big and not too small, with a depth of 1.2 meters, perfect for both kids and adults to play in or simply enjoy the view. Hygiene: Clean and tidy. Environment: The location is excellent. The beach is right across the street, and there's a food street nearby with everything from seafood to Pizza Hut, McDonald's, KFC, and Starbucks. Zengcuo'an is also just a 500-meter walk away. Service: The staff are very enthusiastic and genuinely helpful, always proactively solving guests' problems.

Le Méridien Xiamen Garden View Balcony King Room Stay Review: A Healing Retreat Amidst a Full House The sky had already darkened upon arrival. Winding our way up the tree-lined paths of Xian'gueshan Mountain, the air gradually became moist and cool. It felt like a magical escape from the bustling, humid city, into a 'city oasis' nestled in the mountains. The moment I opened the room door after checking in, the fatigue from the journey instantly melted away. Room | A Mountain Holiday Opened by a Courtyard The room felt very spacious, with a layout of about 40 square meters that was just right. What surprised me the most, naturally, was the exquisite private balcony. Le Méridien's room types each offer different views, and I chose the garden view balcony room specifically for a quiet, relaxing stay. After all, in a mountain setting surrounded by dense vegetation, a few insects are perfectly normal, and the garden view neatly sidestepped that issue. Opening the window in the morning, the lush green central courtyard came into view. Instead of the city's hustle and bustle, I heard the crisp, pleasant chirping of morning birds and the sweet, fresh air blowing from the mountains. I couldn't help but close my eyes and take several deep breaths. Returning to the room in the evening, I lay on the balcony chair, clearing my mind, sipping an iced cola while enjoying the mountain breeze—this is exactly what a vacation should be like. The room's hardware can be summed up in two words: solid and reliable. Beyond being clean and tidy, the 'rainforest' shower's stable water pressure and temperature were truly impressive. The hotel also thoughtfully implemented a dry-wet separation in the bathroom, completely eliminating the awkwardness of worrying about splashing the toilet while showering. The experience was very comfortable and smooth. The bedding, as always, maintained Le Méridien's high standards, soft, fluffy, and supportive, allowing me to sleep soundly until I woke up naturally. Environment | French Romance Hidden in the Mountains If the guest room brought surprise, then the entire hotel environment was stunning. Le Méridien Xiamen's location is meticulously chosen, nestled charmingly on the mountainside of Xian'gueshan. The overall architectural style leans towards a resort villa, so secluded and tranquil that it doesn't feel like it's in the bustling downtown area of the island. Compared to many coastal hotels that face the humidity and noise of sea winds, the mountain landscape here truly provides another level of spiritual enjoyment. The hotel's artistic atmosphere, from the corridors to the public spaces, everywhere you can feel the unique imprint of French aesthetics. Whether it's the artistic flair of the chandeliers or the fragrance in the lobby, everything constantly reminds me that I'm staying in a stylish Le Méridien. The dense vegetation surrounding the hotel makes it feel like living in a natural oxygen bar. A morning jog in Xian'gueshan Park, enjoying the pleasure of sweating freely in the mountains, is a unique experience that you can never feel in a hotel gym. Service and Details | Thoughtfulness Hidden in Every Detail The staff, from the front desk to the concierge, maintained a perfectly measured, welcoming smile. During check-in, the front desk lady patiently asked about my preferences. Knowing that I valued privacy and quiet, she specifically helped arrange a room set apart from other guests on the same floor, handling everything gently and efficiently, which was truly heartwarming. The hotel also provides a free shuttle bus service down the mountain, making it convenient to travel to the Seaworld shopping center and Dongdu Ferry Terminal. On weekends and holidays, there's even a free shuttle bus connecting to popular attractions like Zhongshan Road and Baicheng Beach. One evening, a guest was inconsiderately skipping rope upstairs; after calling the front desk, they responded immediately and resolved the issue quickly! Truly commendable! Conclusion On the day of check-out, the morning sun still gently warmed the garden view balcony, as if possessing a magic that made me reluctant to close the door and leave. To be honest, I've stayed in many hotels, but rarely have I felt such a pang of reluctance upon departure as this time. It embodies the entire mountain forest, yet never strays from the human world, truly interpreting the beautiful realm of 'hidden in the bustling city, yet nestled in the mountains.' If you long for a tranquil vacation experience, listening to the wind on the mountainside, then Le Méridien Xiamen's Garden View Balcony King Room is definitely worth unlocking!

Title: Great location and view, but challenging for foreign travelers Review: This property is more of an Airbnb-style apartment rental than a traditional hotel. While the location and the view from the room are excellent, there are several points that foreign travelers should be aware of. Check-in: The front desk counter does not provide room numbers or guidance. You must contact the owner directly via the Trip.com app's call function. Note that the owner does not speak English. Room Guidance: I was guided to the room by two young men in casual clothes rather than hotel staff. They took photos of my passport and face for registration, but they seemed unfamiliar with the system and struggled for a while. Facilities: Hot water stopped in the middle of my shower; this might be due to the water heater settings or capacity. Also, the TV is only connected to a Xiaomi internet device, which requires a private account or additional payment to watch anything. Wi-Fi: I scanned the QR code in the room, but the AP for my room (1906) didn't exist. I eventually managed to connect to the signal for the neighboring room (1907). Amenities: Only disposable paper towels are provided. I recommend bringing your own towels if you prefer real ones. Privacy: On the day of checkout, cleaning staff entered my room while I was out for a walk—well before the actual checkout time. I found their cleaning cart left inside my room when I returned. Summary: It feels like a residential apartment converted into a rental service. It can be quite inconvenient for foreigners due to the unconventional service style. Stay here for the view and location, but be prepared for some DIY-style hurdles.

I traveled to Xiamen during the Chinese spring service with my dog and took a day trip to Kinmen Island, Taiwan, just off the coast. This hotel was in fact an apartment building with several management companies renting out rooms on various floors. Overall the building was in a horrendous state of disrepair. Initially, the front desk tried to put me into a room on the sixth floor which looked like a scene from a horror movie... Stains on floor, walls, dirt and garbage everywhere....I asked if this is the same room I booked and another female staff member moved me to the 9 th floor which was at least clean and updated, in the hall. The room was ok, and bed comfortable, but I've never stayed in a hotel that put sheets directly on the mattress without a minimal pad between... Luckily no bed bugs. The room had 3 out of 8 working lightbulbs so it was very dark. The heater didn't warm up the room even at max level running all day. Everything was old and dingy... Nothing like the photos I had no TV or Internet service the first day until I asked for it to be repaired. Overall, no maintenance is the problem.. But at least the woman at the front desk was helpful and kind That only real redeeming quality of the room was the view... But the window was so dirty, it was mostly obscured.
