"It's super convenient to get to Takasaki Airport from here. The surrounding area is well-established with plenty of local eateries and convenience stores, making daily meals and shopping a breeze. The front desk staff are friendly and efficient with check-ins, and they're quick to respond to any requests.

"The room was great, really nice and spacious enough for the whole family. The hotel's location is excellent, right above Zhongshan Road Pedestrian Street, making it super convenient to get anywhere.

9.2 (4,946 reviews)

GreenTree Eastern Hotel (Xiamen Zhongshan Road Pedestrian Street) ★★★

📍 Jintongcheng Building, No. 336-360 Zhongshan Road, Siming District, Xiamen

"The room was pretty clean and quiet, with good soundproofing. Breakfast options were a bit limited. We were traveling with seniors and kids, and the hotel's location was great, but the nearby food and drink spots were all quite expensive, which was the most frustrating part! We were too tired, so we ordered takeout to the hotel, and a robot delivered it, which was very convenient! Getting a ride-share or walking to Zhongshan Road from here was also quite easy..."

Xiamen South Wind Hidden Stay (Xiamen North Station North Square)
9.7 (316 reviews)

Xiamen South Wind Hidden Stay (Xiamen North Station North Square) ★★

📍 No. 152-130 Yantong Road, Jimei District, Xiamen

"It was a basic stay, very basic amenities were there, but for cleaning it was not enough, as everything seems used from previous customer, like they have just arranged it again. Reception and hotel both are basically different buildings altogether (can say it justifies hidden stay). Some cost cutting was there as instead of proper cups , disposable glasses were there. But overall, at the price they are offering justifies it in location like this."

9.1 (1,686 reviews)

Hampton by Hilton Xiamen  City Plaza Hotels in Xiamen

Hampton by Hilton Xiamen City Plaza

"Booking hotels for clients can be tricky, you often put in a lot of effort only for it not to be appreciated. But this time, the Hampton by Hilton Xiamen City Plaza truly made me look good in front of my client! After checking out, my client specifically gave feedback saying the experience was superb, so I absolutely had to leave a heartfelt five-star review. First off, the location is truly unbeatable. It's right next to City Plaza, and Metro Line 3 is just outside, making trips to the airport and high-speed rail station very quick. This was super convenient for my client's business meetings and seeing partners. My client particularly praised the service, saying the front desk staff were extremely professional and enthusiastic from check-in to check-out, and very efficient. Especially when checking out and pressed for time, the front desk proactively guided them on how to get an electronic invoice, which was processed almost instantly. This kind of efficiency is a huge plus for business travelers. My client also mentioned that the hotel has robot food delivery, which they found quite smart. Furthermore, the room was very comfortable, maintaining Hampton's consistent quality. The mattress was just right—neither too soft nor too hard—ensuring a good night's sleep, and the room was spotlessly clean. My client was also very satisfied with the breakfast, which offered a rich variety, including local Xiamen specialties. All in all, this hospitality experience was very successful. The hotel exceeded my client's expectations in terms of facilities, location, and service. In the future, for any business接待 or travel needs, this will definitely be my top choice! I highly recommend it to anyone visiting Xiamen for business or leisure!"

Kempinski Hotel Xiamen Hotels in Xiamen

Kempinski Hotel Xiamen

"I won't go into details. The staff actually work very hard, and I don't want my complaints to get them docked pay, which would go against my original intention. However, the staff's overall demeanor and morale reflect issues with the hotel's management. As for attitude and cleanliness, I won't be too demanding. In a nutshell, tourists, avoid this place!"

Sheraton Xiamen Hotel Hotels in Xiamen

Sheraton Xiamen Hotel

"Our overall stay had both pleasant surprises and some disappointments, not quite meeting our expectations for a 5-star hotel. The family twin room we booked wasn't originally designed as such; it was a king room with an additional small bed. This extra bed made the room feel quite cramped, and the mattress on the small bed was firm, which negatively impacted sleep quality. The room lighting was generally dim, and the lighting design felt outdated. Many areas had insufficient light, making it inconvenient when organizing luggage or looking for items. Regarding the paid breakfast, the staff service was quite attentive, and the food tasted decent, slightly better than what you'd find at an All Seasons hotel. However, for the price point, the variety of dishes was limited, so the value for money wasn't great. There was also a minor oversight where soy sauce and vinegar were mixed up, indicating that attention to detail in management could be improved. The complimentary bottled water provided was Ice Dew, which is commonly found in mid-range hotels, lacking the premium feel expected from a 5-star establishment. Objectively, the hotel's location is good, the staff are friendly, and the hygiene is acceptable. However, the modified room type, lighting, and breakfast significantly lowered the overall experience. Paying 5-star prices, the actual experience fell short. For those planning to book a family twin room, I recommend confirming if it's an original twin room layout before booking, to avoid the modified add-bed rooms. Breakfast can be considered based on your preferences, but the value is average. Overall, it's not uninhabitable, but I hope the hotel can optimize these details to truly live up to its 5-star positioning, which would encourage future stays."

"Cleanliness: Very clean Facilities: Well-equipped Environment: Upscale Service: The front desk staff, San San, was gentle and patient. Overall: Good value for money. Excellent location right in the city center. Lots of great food nearby, and a robot delivers takeout."

Huayue Genting Hotel (Xiamen North Railway Station)

"They offer a shuttle service, and the driver was incredibly friendly. The front desk service was excellent; they even escorted us to our private room. When we checked out, I left some clothes behind, and they kindly called to ask if I wanted them back. Once they knew I did, they immediately arranged for SF Express to ship them to me. The breakfast was plentiful, and the staff working there were exceptionally kind."

Langham Place Xiamen Hotels in Xiamen

Langham Place Xiamen

"Stayed for the weekend with my Maltese. Although my Maltese is small and I've previously checked into bigger hotels in Anda City by just keeping her in a carrier, I felt that a dedicated pet-friendly hotel was a much better experience, avoiding any unnecessary hassle. It seemed like not only the staff but also other guests were very welcoming to pets. The executive benefits weren't used, so I'll try them next time if I get the chance. Breakfast was average, but the muffins and other pastries were good. The hygiene felt alright, and the service was attentive. I'll probably come back again if I have the opportunity."

"This hotel is located above Zhongshan Road, making it very convenient for exploring nearby attractions. It's just a 10-minute taxi ride to the ferry terminal for Gulangyu Island. The hotel facilities are excellent, and it's spotlessly clean with tidy bedding. The front desk service is also fantastic. It's a highly recommended choice for tourists."

"My stay at Weishang Garden Chaosu was exceptionally comfortable. What impressed me the most was the cleanliness of the room; the entire space was meticulously cleaned, the bedding was spotless and dry, and the bathroom had no water stains or strange odors. The guesthouse's location is excellent, close to Zhongshan Road, making shopping and dining convenient. The sky garden in the common area is elegant and pleasant. The owner's service was thoughtful and attentive, responding promptly to all my travel needs. The room facilities were complete, ensuring a secure and relaxing stay. The value for money is excellent. This is definitely my top choice for accommodation when visiting Xiamen, and I will book here again for future trips."
