"It was truly terrible. The bedsheets were damp and yellowish-white, the bedding felt wet and only partially dried, and the bed was full of bedbugs. In reality, the only good thing is the location. I will never stay at this hotel again and I highly recommend that others avoid it too. The night I spent here was absolutely horrible."

"Special commendation for Felix at the Andaz Xiamen's front desk. His service was professional and meticulous, and he was warm and courteous. Check-in was smooth and efficient upon arrival. When I requested a room type change, he actively communicated and handled it quickly, responding very promptly. He thoughtfully informed me of the hotel's various benefits and offered practical local sightseeing advice based on my itinerary, showing great attention to detail. The hotel's Nanyang-style environment is elegant, and its location is excellent, with direct access to MixC. Both the facilities and services are top-notch. All the hotel staff were very friendly and attentive. The lobby decoration is beautiful, with many fresh flowers. Thanks to Felix's excellent service, my entire stay far exceeded expectations. I will definitely choose this hotel again on future visits to Xiamen and highly recommend it to other travelers coming to the city."

Swiss Grand Xiamen ★★★★★
"Luxurious hotel. We booked 3 rooms. They gave some of us a pleasant surprise by providing a good night message with local snacks and eye masks. Some of us didn't receive it but they quickly brought them when I called the room service. Luggage storage service was provided. It's 5-star so many services are expected. Would return and recommend to friends for sure."

Vishan Garden Boutique Hotel( Zhongshan Road Pedestrian Street Store) ★★★★
"Staying at Vshang Garden Chaosu in their 'Dream Bathtub Room' was a fantastic experience. Upgrading the room type was definitely the smartest move. It's a fully smart home, and the front desk staff went through all the controls for the lights, AC, and hot water before I even entered the room – very thorough! The tea aroma diffuser in the hallway, with its Tieguanyin scent, was so pleasant every time I walked by. During my stay, the butler was not only quick to respond but also helped me avoid several popular attractions that usually have long queues. The bathtub area was cleaned spotlessly every day, and the water pressure was steady with plenty of hot water, leaving me feeling completely relaxed after a soak. The room was tidied up perfectly, and there was an ample supply of bottled water. I took a few photos of the light and shadows around the bathtub, and they looked so atmospheric; my friends even asked where it was. It's definitely a spot worthy of being an Instagram hot spot. I'll be staying here again next time I'm in Xiamen."

Andaz Xiamen ★★★★★
"📍Andaz Xiamen | Family Room My husband and I stayed at the Andaz Xiamen in 2021 or 2022, shortly after it opened, and it was quite new and we were very satisfied with our stay. This time, traveling with our baby, we chose a family room, and the overall experience was excellent. The hotel's service details were spot-on, and the hotel exudes a full Nanyang retro vibe, with photo opportunities everywhere. It's perfect for taking pictures. The most pleasant surprise was the travel photography service included with our stay. The photographer was very patient and proactively guided our poses, avoiding stiff, forced shots and excelling at capturing a relaxed, natural feel. There was a rich selection of shooting locations, and the original photos had great quality. When we stayed before, this photography service wasn't available, but now it seems most hotels nationwide offer something similar, which is quite convenient. The breakfast offered a wide variety of dishes and the taste was superb. Breakfast here is much better than at the Hyatt Centric Xiamen, several tiers above! If you're looking to effortlessly get great vacation photos in Xiamen, I highly recommend the Andaz Xiamen."
