Hoteles con piscina en Fujian, China

This place makes me wish there was an option for six stars. I study Asian art for a living, and I travelled to Jianyang to visit the home of Jian ware, classic tea bowls of the Song dynasty (960 to 1279 CE), distinguished by their black and brown glazes. Over the last few decades, firing Jian ware in the Song tradition has been revived in the area. I chose Nanping Colourful Village Homestay because it was in Jianyang, affordable, and accepted international guests. What I found was a luxury resort with all the warmth and personal attention of a homestay. I asked the front desk about an excavated Song kiln site in a nearby village, and the receptionist brought me the manager, who arranged for someone to take me the next day. My driver was Ms. Huang, an employee of the resort whose job involves buying and selling contemporary pieces. She knew everything about Jian ware! The kiln site isn’t run as a tourist site, so I was only able to view it because Ms. Huang arranged for it to be opened for me. I had told them I was vegetarian, so for lunch they took me to lunch at a vegetarian buffet. Then we visited the town’s Jian ware museum, where they have exhibits on the history of tea and Jian ware, historical pieces, and the work of contemporary Jianyang potters. To my delight, Mr. Gao, the potter-in-residence at the resort, uses a Song-style wood-fired dragon kiln, built right on the grounds! His pieces that range from beautiful but quite affordable to exquisite and appropriately expensive. They include both iridescent silvery oil spot and orange-to-black hare’s fur pieces. I am still thrilled that I was able to purchase wood-fired pieces on my limited budget. For dinner, the resort’s restaurant prepared vegetarian versions of Fujian cuisine for me. The food was all delicious, featuring classic Fujianese mountain ingredients like local bamboo and mushrooms. Then we visited Mr. Gao’s dragon kiln, and later his studio, where he experiments with different local clays and glaze recipes. The rich colours and iridescence of Jian ware are the result of the iron-rich local material fired at high temperature, and the results are as unpredictable as they are beautiful. The next day, they drove me to Mr. Chen’s family tea plantation in the mountains, where they grow famous northern Fujian teas. These fine teas were all wonderful, smooth and rich with a touch of smoke, and sometimes fruity in flavour. We strolled through mountainsides of tea bushes and visited groves of centuries-old tea trees. This is a perfect place for an immersive experience in China that is also very comfortable and convenient. I often find tourist experiences in China claustrophobic due to the press of people, but the resort was spacious and airy, and they took me to places where there was no one else but us and the occasional local going about their business. Everyone was very patient with my limited Chinese language skills. They were also happy to work with translator apps on our phones, so if you don’t speak any Chinese, you will be fine. This would be a great place to come as a family. There are gardens and rides for kids right next to the resort. You can learn how to whip Song-style tea and carve your name into the base of your own Jian ware cup. Not far away is a historical theme park with a collection of real architecture from the Ming (1368 to 1644 CE) and Qing (1636 to 1912 CE) dynasties. The employees wear period dress and there are performances and activities. Nearby there are hiking trails, historical sites, and lovely villages to visit. It’s also very close to Wuyi Mountain National Park, so it would be a perfect place to stay if the mountains are your destination. If you ask, they could arrange for you to visit famous sites or take you to breathtaking places that only locals know, whatever you want. They can also arrange transport to and from the train station or airport.

La ubicación es muy conveniente, con una estación de metro justo debajo. Está a menos de 5 minutos a pie de la calle peatonal Zhongshan Road, donde hay muchos lugares para comer, beber y comprar. El hotel también está limpio y el personal es muy amable.

Excelente hotel, fue una estancia corta de un día, pero se disfrutó mucho y el desayuno muy completo, con mucha variedad

Si vuelvo a Quanzhou, sin duda elegiré de nuevo el hotel Citywell. La habitación es limpia, con iluminación cálida y espaciosa, y está ubicado cerca de la calle de la comida, con muchos restaurantes y centros de masajes en los alrededores. El hotel huele muy bien al entrar y el personal es amable; incluso compartieron buenos consejos de viaje con los huéspedes. Lo recomiendo ampliamente.

Mi primera estancia fue una buena experiencia en todos los aspectos. Seguiré eligiendo este hotel la próxima vez. Muchas gracias por el cálido servicio de Sherry❤️Nos ayudó a ascender a una suite cuando nos registramos. Escribió cuidadosamente recordatorios de comidas para cada período en la tarjeta. El conserje nos ayudó a cargar nuestro equipaje y nos llevó a la habitación. Vistas despejadas al mar y a la ciudad. La habitación era espaciosa y la ropa de cama era cómoda, y también hay un minibar gratuito. No pude levantarme para desayunar, pero mi amigo me llevó de regreso a la habitación y dijo que el personal también me ayudó a empacar leche y otros alimentos. La experiencia del salón en el piso 22 también es buena. Tiene vista al mar en el piso superior. Hay té por la tarde y refrescos disponibles hasta las nueve de la noche.

I enjoyed my stay overall. While the hotel isn’t perfect, it offers great value if you’re looking for a relaxed beach holiday away from the busy tourist areas. Location The hotel is in a peaceful area close to Huangcuo Beach and Xitouxia, with plenty of small local seafood restaurants and traditional Chinese eateries nearby. If you’re not into seafood, there are still a few other dining options within walking distance. It’s about a 30-minute walk to popular cafés like Oncebook Coffee and Snow Peak Café. Further along the beach you’ll also find beach bars such as Breeze Bar and Amoy Beach Bar, where you can enjoy drinks overlooking the ocean. Most of Xiamen’s major attractions, including Shapowei, Zhongshan Road, Gulangyu Ferry Terminal, and MIXC, are around a 20–30 minute taxi ride away, making them easy to reach. Facilities The highlight of the hotel is definitely the swimming pool. It’s clean, relaxing, and has two sun loungers, making it a nice place to unwind after a day of exploring. The hotel doesn’t offer breakfast or have its own restaurant, but there are several places nearby where you can eat. Room The rooms are spacious and nicely designed, with floor-to-ceiling windows that provide beautiful ocean views. The bed is exceptionally comfortable, with soft memory foam pillows, and the air conditioning works very well—something you’ll definitely appreciate during Xiamen’s summer. The bathroom is modern, with a large rainfall shower that has excellent water pressure. There are a few downsides, however. The room could be cleaner, and the hotel provides disposable towels instead of regular bath towels, which wasn’t my favourite. There’s also no minibar or mini fridge, which would have been a welcome addition. Service The reception staff deserve special mention. The gentleman who checked me in was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and went out of his way to make sure I was comfortable throughout my stay. His hospitality left a very positive impression. Final thoughts If you’re looking for a quiet beachside stay with comfortable rooms, beautiful ocean views, and don’t mind taking a taxi to Xiamen’s main attractions, this hotel is a solid choice. Just don’t expect luxury facilities or a full-service resort experience.

Grand Honor Hotel is definitely the best hotel in Shishi, but it’s not quite the same level as a luxury hotel in a bigger city. Generally the hotel is clean, but it’s the little things that I noticed, ie when I checked in, there were some sweet wrappers next to the bowl of sweets that weren’t cleared away. That said, the sense of space is evident in the hotel lobby, lifts, corridors and most importantly, the hotel rooms. Rooms are very spacious and well-designed, although the closet area can definitely do with brighter lights. Most amenities are provided but what put me off is that many items that would have been free in other hotels at this price-range aren’t free at Grand Honor. There is a Chinese tea set on the table and usually the loose leaf tea is provided for free but it cost ¥15 per packet. Honestly it’s not a lot of money for us, but on the flip side, surely the hotel can provide a bag of tea leaves for their guests. There are the standard free single-use packet tea in the drawer so at least there’s that. In-room slippers are not to be taken out; they’d charge you if you do - and that’s fine, but the slippers are actually really uncomfortable to wear. The small plate of fruits (banana, plum and mandarin) given at 5pm every day is a nice touch. The hotel breakfast is probably the highlight. Set on the 22nd floor with panoramic views of the city, breakfast is very enjoyable. The food quality is pretty good, but a real surprise here is the sheer diversity of food. The bread selection alone has 5-6 choices (pastries, brioche, baguette, square toast, etc), the cooked food section is almost endless (and there’s cooked Chinese vegetables! 👏🏾) and then there’s the fruit selection at the end too. My only gripe is that the coffee machine is a bit slow, and there’s only one machine so there can be a wait for coffee. Location of the hotel is a little odd; good restaurants and the main mall is about 15 mins’ walk away. There aren’t many good shops to wander around nearby. Generally, this is a solid hotel for this price point. Excellent service with very fast food delivery (using the ubiquitous delivery robots) and friendly front desk staff.

Debo recomendar este hotel, ¡es tan increíble! Mi familia y yo reservamos una habitación doble y una habitación temática para padres e hijos. ¡Nos encantó! La habitación es espaciosa, la ropa de cama es cómoda, toda la habitación está limpia y el efecto de aislamiento acústico es bueno. La familia está muy satisfecha y los niños se divierten mucho en la habitación. Vale la pena mencionar que el hotel también cuenta con un centro de entretenimiento de aguas termales. Por la noche, puede llevar a los niños a las aguas termales. Después de sumergirse en las aguas termales, pueden subir a jugar en el segundo piso. bolas oceánicas, los niños mayores pueden jugar a las consolas de juegos y los adultos también pueden jugar. Realmente recomiendo este lugar para viajes familiares de fin de semana. ¡Es rentable, está totalmente equipado y el servicio es muy considerado!

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.

Our stay at Andaz Xiamen was absolutely spectacular. The hospitality here is top-tier; the staff are extremely friendly, proactive, and go completely out of their way to make you feel welcome and taken care of. The hotel’s architecture and high-class design are an absolute highlight. Conceived as a modern interpretation of a classic Nanyang mansion, it beautifully blends old-world tropical grandeur with sleek luxury, complete with gorgeous rattan accents, warm timber louvers, and lush, green walkways that make it feel like a ”garden on the sea.” Every corner, from the striking, high-ceilinged lobby to our room, was impeccably clean and tidy. The location in the Siming district is incredibly convenient, sitting right next to the MixC mall. Having world-class shopping and endless dining options just steps away made exploring effortless, and being close to the metro and railway station made commuting seamless. Another massive standout was the amenities. The outdoor swimming pool is fantastic, it’s heated, perfectly maintained, and surrounded by beautiful tropical landscaping, providing a peaceful, relaxing escape right in the middle of the city. The evening social hour with drinks and snacks at the Andaz Lounge was also a wonderful touch. We had a flawless experience and cannot wait to return. Highest recommendation!
