Xin'andong Hotel

The hotel has excellent view and location! The room is large and newly renovated. Is us good if the hotel can increase the number of washing machine & dryer! The breakfast is super good as it serves seafood ❤️

Had the best view ever into North Korea which is what I came for. The hotel is a little far away from the touristy area/restaurants but got a massive clean/comfortable room at a great price. Would stay again.

The location is great and the price was reasonable for a 5 star hotel. However, there were some things that seemed lacking of a 5 star hotel. The CONS - Rooms come with heavy smoke smell and ashtray even if asking for non smoking, and it was open smoking in the lobby and even elevators. I would have loved a bathtub instead of only a shower. The breakfast was very good for the price (48 rmb) but didn't include juices and their attempt at adding bacon was horrific as it was a fake street sausage type of bacon that's bright red and inedible. There was brand-name water bottles and then there was the hotel water bottles in the room and there was a menu charging 2 rmb to heat up water. I am not sure how they would know or if this is to charge for the people who steal the tea and coffee. But I would expect to boil water for free. Also the gym closed at 19:00 and it seemed a bit early. The PROS - The beds were comfortable. The staff did their best to accommodate and even allowed picking up luggage later. The coffee shop inside had great coffee if you dont mind the smoke. The breakfast was a great value for 48 rmb. The location was great and convenient. The hotel was able to check us in to the room early with availability. The hot spring SPA was amazing as well since there was no pool but you need to be careful not to let them give you extra services (which are sub par) and just enjoy the hot water and sauna for free when you buy something.

The hotel was great overall. We would recommend it. The service was impecable: Every time we needed something we would call the front desk and they would answer right away. If we ordered food it would be delivered by a friendly robot directly to our door. There were a couple of cleanliness issues: one was a stain of humidity in the bathroom, and the other was one of the coffee mugs which was improperly cleaned. (Photos below)

Ok ok ok

I liked the cleanliness!
