"This was my first time visiting Chaoshan, starting from Jieyang to Chaozhou, then Shantou and Nan'ao Island. I stayed two nights at the Marriott initially. Later, I couldn't stand the accommodation on Nan'ao Island, so I quickly returned to the Shantou Marriott. I had exchanged WeChat contacts during my previous check-out, so when I went back, the lady there arranged everything perfectly for me. This time, returning to Chaoshan, I headed straight for the Shantou Marriott. Yuhas at the switchboard handled my arrangements, and it was impeccable as always. I arrived in Shenzhen yesterday, and I wouldn't have known I left my earrings at the hotel if Yuhas hadn't informed me. The meticulous attention to detail from the Marriott staff makes it a truly worthwhile choice ❤️"

"This hotel was a true gem we discovered on our trip, hands down the best of the entire journey! The staff scheduling is very thoughtful; the morning shift has three lovely ladies who are gentle and patient, while the evening shift is handled by dedicated staff. Breakfast deserves a special mention – the 'kuey teow' (flat rice noodles) was amazing. The food selection is comprehensive, clean, and hygienic. The bedding in the rooms is neat and comfortable, and the parking lot is spacious with plenty of spots, so no stress about parking. The lobby has a pleasant aroma, and the air conditioning temperature is just right. Even the public walkway to the affiliated BBQ restaurant is meticulously clean, with no grease or stains, showing excellent attention to hygiene details. My stay here was fantastic, and I highly recommend this hotel to all my friends in Guangzhou!"

Hotel near Paifang Street/Chaozhou Ancient City/Guangji Bridge,Chaozhou
Located in the heart of Chaozhou ancient city, Jiangnan House draws inspiration from the former residence of a renowned figure, centered around the historic "Chun Yuan"—the former home of the esteemed Chinese scholar Rao Zongyi. Blending century-old traditional architecture with modern design, the hotel forms a unique architectural complex. It is conveniently situated near Pai Fang Street (a hub of intangible cultural heritage), the famous Kaiyuan Temple of eastern Guangdong, and the iconic Guangji Bridge—one of China's four ancient bridges. The hotel features 20 courtyard-style guest rooms, each infused with local artistic and cultural elements, offering guests an immersive experience of Chaozhou rich heritage. Committed to setting a benchmark for cultural retreats, Jiangnan House plays a vital role in revitalizing the ancient city and shaping a new urban landmark. Inside the rooms, guests will find custom-made furniture, Bvlgari bath amenities, and Dyson hair dryers, ensuring a luxurious and comfortable stay.

"My last night in Chaozhou, sitting in the courtyard sipping Dancong tea, I found myself reluctant to go to sleep. I really wanted to write a good review for Youxiong – this place truly deserves it. What impressed me most was the service; it embodies 'consideration' in every detail. The cobbled streets of the ancient city are tricky to navigate, but a quick call brings a shuttle silently to your doorstep, and the driver carefully handles your luggage. The front desk is so responsive it's like they can read your mind. Asking for directions, borrowing something, or needing anything last minute, they always respond with a smile, like an old friend. That feeling of being cared for isn't just routine politeness; it's a gentle 'I understand what you need right now.' The amenities are also meticulously chosen. As the Bvlgari toiletries dissolved in the hot water, the day's fatigue washed away with the bubbles. The Dyson hairdryer, with its powerful airflow, dried my long hair in just a few minutes. The biggest surprise was being upgraded to a courtyard room – I almost gasped when I opened the door. The room was so spacious I could roll around on the wooden floor, and outside the window was the interplay of light and shadow in the old house's courtyard. Waking up to birdsong in the morning, I almost felt like the owner of the ancient city. Breakfast was semi-buffet style, with Chaozhou-style kway teow and freshly ground coffee side-by-side, yet it didn't feel out of place at all. Eating warm shrimp dumplings and watching the sunlight slowly climb over the mottled old walls, I suddenly realized that 'luxury' isn't about expensive accumulation, but about making every moment as comfortable as being at home, yet with an added sense of ceremony and being truly valued. Looking back as I left, the grey tiles and white walls stood quietly in the morning mist. Thank you, Youxiong, for making my stay in Chaozhou feel like living inside an old poem. I’ll definitely be back. 🍵"

"I booked the Imperial Hotel last minute, and as soon as I arrived, I was told my room had been upgraded for free! It was huge and spacious, with brand new facilities and luxurious decor. They even have a free swimming pool for guests – truly befitting an established five-star hotel. The location is also great, close to Zhujiang Road Food Street, which I actually think has better food than Longquan South Road Food Street. The hotel service was absolutely impeccable, especially our butler. She was incredibly thoughtful and patient, contacting us even before we arrived. Once we were there, she surprised us with local Shantou specialties and toys for the kids. Before we left, she proactively arranged our ride to the high-speed train station. The hotel driver was super fast, getting us from the hotel to the station in just five minutes. Our whole trip was made so much better by staying at the Imperial Hotel; I'll definitely be back here next time I visit Shantou!"

"A century-old arcade dream, Shantou DIOTEL Queen Hotel is super awesome! 👍 Rooted in the heart of the Little Park's fan-shaped arcade buildings, it blends Nanyang retro aesthetics with local Chaoshan culture. Open the window and you're greeted with a panoramic view of the Memorial Pavilion. The butler service is meticulously attentive, and both the soft furnishings and hardware are top-tier. Spend your days strolling through the lively arcade old streets and your evenings admiring the illuminated entire district. This is the ultimate accommodation experience in Shantou's old city."

The overall design of the homestay is very strong. From the design of the room, the bathroom bedding, the public area to the dining area, every place is very attentive and very clean. The green that cannot be captured in photos is very high-end. You can see the sunrise from the room, which is very photogenic. I would like to mention that the two housekeepers, Xiao Miao and Xiao Cai, are very considerate. The fruits we brought with us were carefully washed, cut and specially arranged on the plate. All our needs were met, and they were available on call. They also helped us with our luggage. It is a place I will stay in again. The experience is worth the price. It is worth the trip.

Honestly, it was really good. First, I have to praise the bed 🛏️ – it was so soft and incredibly comfortable! Secondly, the service awareness was definitely there. While they weren't always smiling, service was prompt and responsive whenever needed. The service group they set up also responded to issues immediately, which was super! The afternoon tea coffee was decent, and breakfast was plentiful. The location is good. I only realized after two days that it’s very close to the Shantou Hotel, but you still need a taxi to get to Long'en South Road, but that's not a big deal. Coming to Shantou during the off-season and staying here was excellent 👍🏻. Ordering takeout was also very convenient 👍🏻.

Stumbled upon this guesthouse online and decided to check it out before the May Day holiday rush. I was initially worried it might be a 'seller's show' (looks better in pictures than in real life), but it turned out to be 100% accurate to what was posted! Overall, a great experience. **Environment:** The guesthouse is set up like an estate, offering good privacy, so you're not disturbed by non-hotel guests or road noise. **Facilities:** The infinity pool in the room seems to circulate filtered seawater, which was very clean. It's perfect for taking photos at night when the lights are on, but it does shut off at 12 AM. There's also an outdoor pool on the first floor facing the sea. The minibar and fridge drinks in the room are complimentary, and all the amenities are of good quality. **Service:** The hotel staff were incredibly attentive. Right after booking, I immediately received a call from the owner. After adding them on WeChat, they confirmed my arrival time and whether I wanted the pool pre-filled, etc. Throughout my stay, I felt that all the staff had a great attitude. This is also a pet-friendly establishment. If you bring a pet, they provide a pet amenities kit with pee pads, diapers, disposable bowls, chew toys like Boryeongdan, and more. I brought my own dog bed, and they mentioned they also offer small beds. However, there's an additional cleaning fee for pets, which I didn't see on the booking page and only found out about upon arrival.

Although the hotel requires crossing a tunnel or bridge to get to the city center, I find it much better than the old hotels there. This hotel is new, and the surroundings are much quieter than in the city. It's very convenient, and the service attitude is excellent. If you stay for multiple nights, there's even a self-service laundry and dryer, which is super handy. My only suggestion would be to improve the breakfast offerings.

I first met Oliver at another hotel, and this time, I decided to try Oriental Century based on his recommendation – and I'm so glad I did! :) I've already told my family we're coming back next weekend for a swim. The sea view from the room is absolutely stunning; the huge floor-to-ceiling windows offer an unobstructed panorama of every rhythm of the ocean. Watching the sea from the window is incredibly therapeutic, especially paired with the Kung Fu tea provided by the hotel – a genuine Chaoshan flavor that spreads from your tongue to your heart. The comfort and elegance of the environment are evident in every detail, from the moment you step into the lobby to the room itself, and the cleanliness is spotless, giving you peace of mind. The hotel's facilities are high-end; the marble seems to be from the old Fendi White quarry, and the bathroom fixtures are Hansgrohe. The towels are the thickest and warmest I've experienced in any luxury hotel, and the aroma in the public areas is delightful. For breakfast, I enjoyed authentic and diverse Chaoshan delicacies, like kway teow, rice noodle rolls, congee, and various side dishes. The European bread was freshly baked and incredibly fragrant – I wished I had a bigger stomach! The service was also excellent; every staff member I encountered was polite, smiling, and greeted us proactively. Oliver was as attentive as ever, arranging our room and then introducing us to the hotel's facilities and nearby attractions. He planned our routes for everything, whether it was 'oxygen-absorbing' in the park or a soulful walk by the sea. Even on our first visit, we felt right at home; having him there is a guarantee of a worry-free stay. It's a shame we were in such a rush this time and didn't get to the pool, but next time, I'm definitely taking some beautiful photos, haha!

This is an old, well-established brand in Chenghai, Shantou, and I've stayed here a few times. The hygiene is good, and the service is decent too. The best thing about this brand is that they don't hike up prices erratically during holidays, and their service consistently remains good. Perhaps outsiders haven't discovered this, but as a frequent guest, I definitely notice the difference.

I was pleasantly surprised that breakfast was served until noon. There are plenty of convenient dining options nearby, especially the goose rice and congee places. It's also quite close to Aofei Plaza. If you don't feel like walking or taking a taxi, you can just grab a shared e-scooter on the street and explore the area.

This is hands down the best B&B I've ever stayed in. No contest. I arrived on a weekday, so there weren't many tourists. The owner even treated me to a meal! We chatted for two hours, and I learned that this is their family's 300-year-old ancestral home. The villagers entrusted him and his team to manage it. It used to have 99 rooms, now converted into just over 20 guest rooms. The level of exquisite renovation surpasses most five-star hotels, and the enclosed design of the entire building gives you a wonderful sense of security. My room with an outdoor private hot spring was very spacious and perfectly equipped. I could leisurely enjoy tea or work without any disturbance; it was incredibly quiet. The hotel isn't just part of a building, the entire structure *is* the hotel. The owner mentioned that when they opened earlier this year, they collected over 100,000 RMB in entrance fees from tourists in just three days. Later, they stopped to avoid disturbing guests. It's very close to the filming location of 'A Love Letter to Grandma' and there are many fantastic seafood stir-fry restaurants nearby. The only 'downside' is that it's a bit far from Chaozhou city center, so you need a car to get around. Of course, that could also be seen as an advantage!
