I'm an ordinary office worker from Taizhou, Zhejiang, with a virtuous wife and a 3-year-old son. I like to share my own family travel guides, hotel deals, and great places to take kids. I accidentally became a family travel blogger. This Lunar New Year, we went to Fuzhou. We first went to Pingtan, and then wanted to see the God Parade, so we chose to stay in Changle District. We ended up discovering a hidden gem of a hotel. 🏨 Fuzhou Marriott Hotel Riverside The hotel is a 20-minute drive from Changle Airport and a 10-minute drive from Changle East Railway Station. It's convenient to stay here a day before your flight or train if you're traveling with kids. 📸 There are many photo spots in the hotel. The outdoor wedding chapel, "Heart of the Ocean," makes you feel like you're in Sanya. See photos 1–4. 🏊‍♂️ The hotel has several children's play areas. The indoor heated pool is great for swimming with kids, and adults can work out in the gym. See photos 5–6. Donghu Digital Town The hotel is a 5-minute walk from Donghu Lake. You can take a stroll with your kids and enjoy the breeze, or rent a shared children's toy car. It's very relaxing. See photos 9–13. Changle Xiasha Beach A 20-minute drive from the hotel, this place is known as "Little Jeju Island" in Fuzhou. The conch tower is a great photo spot! See photos 14–16. Of all the hotels we stayed at in Fuzhou (including the Hilton Fuzhou), the Marriott Hotel Riverside is the most photogenic. The sunset view from the room is beautiful. It's also more family-friendly, with better children's facilities. If you're traveling with kids to Changle to see the God Parade or for a layover, you can give it a try. I'll write more about other things to do with kids in Changle besides the God Parade.

Fuzhou Marriott Hotel Riverside This hotel is close to the airport, so it is always used as a transit hotel for our family. Every stay at this Marriott is a good experience. The happy hour in the lounge is very friendly to us who don't like airplane food. This lounge dinner is recommended, the taste is very good, It suits our Northeastern stomach very well. All hotel staff are on-site, from the moment you get off the bus, someone will take the initiative to open the door and take your luggage. From the gentle service of the lady at the front desk to the proactive greeting and help making drinks when entering the lounge. Few Marriott hotels in China can do this, perhaps because there are fewer people. The first floor of the hotel is quite big, enough for children to run and jump, and there is also an ocean heart in the backyard. It's like a small artificial lake with a fountain, but it was not open the day I went there. The room suite is big and the room is new. The welcome fruit was very exquisite, and there was a tea table in the suite's living room, which was charged. There is really no business around the hotel and it is sparsely populated. It takes about 50 minutes to take a taxi to the city, which is suitable for people who have an overnight layover. Or people who come here by car. The room has a bit of smell, but it's ok since it's equipped with an air purifier. The details of the hotel are well done. Our check-in time was 7pm and the room was already made for turndown. The hotel's gym swimming pool is on the first floor and the swimming pool is quite large. You can see it from the outside, I didn't go in to experience it, but you can see it Towels and bottled water are provided at each rest area. This is amazing and rare in China. Give it a thumbs up. The housekeeping was excellent.

The Fuzhou Donghu Marriott Hotel is the first Marriott hotel in Fuzhou and the first international five-star hotel in the Binhai New City. The hotel's hardware and design are all high-end. The hotel is located in the Donghu VR Town in the Binhai New City of Fuzhou, in the Changle District, near Fuzhou Donghu, and has a good lake and sea ecological environment. It is also close to a 12-kilometer golden beach, adjacent to a golf course and many water sports and entertainment facilities. Design The hotel is full of Chinese cultural elements, and it is also a hotel full of art collections and fashion elements. Whether in the public area or the restaurant, you can encounter many works of art. The huge lacquer painting "Sea Silk Sailing" created by artist Tang Zhiyi in the lobby bar is super dazzling, and there are also sculptures by Yang Bailin from Taiwan, "Heart Flower Finds Open", paintings by Yang Shu, "Unintentional 25", and French artist Tess Dumont's "Mare and Pony" and so on.

The high-rise landscape is panoramic, and the main view is excellent. The hardware part is outstanding, the bathroom hardware uses DURAVIT, and the hair dryer is surprisingly Dyson. The big bed is very comfortable, the light is soft, and the night light is turned on at night. When the alarm clock rings in the morning and opens your eyes, you will not feel dazzling. The bedside table is equipped with an electronic clock, which can be connected to the mobile phone Bluetooth to set music, which is very smart. Food There are a total of 5 restaurants & bars including the lobby bar, Chinese restaurant, all-day restaurant, specialty restaurant, and tea room. Fujian people love to drink tea, so the hotel also specially set up a tea room "Luya Terrace" on the 26th floor. The lobby bar provides tea, coffee and various drinks during the day, and turns into a bar at night, with foreign singers singing. The breakfast is complete, and there are Fuzhou specialties such as fish balls, noodle paste, porridge + pickles, and the decoration of the cake area is actually made of sugar! Experience Personally, I think that among the five-star hotels in Fuzhou, there are very few that occupy such a large area and have a bit of vacation. Donghu Marriott is indeed more satisfactory than many other five-star hotels in Fuzhou. From hotel decoration to catering types and tastes, they are all pretty good.

If it's your birthday, they will decorate your room in advance, very thoughtful. Personally, I think there are very few five-star hotels in Fuzhou that have such a large area and a bit of a resort feel. Donghu Marriott indeed makes people more satisfied than many other five-star hotels in Fuzhou. From the hotel decoration to the variety and taste of the dining facilities, everything is quite good. 🅿️Parking: There are parking spaces both on the ground and underground, free for hotel guests, and there are general charging piles.

A while ago, my post about staying in a hotel in Sanya gained the same feeling from many sisters. It turns out that nowadays, rather than traveling like special forces soldiers, visiting scenic spots, checking in and taking photos, people prefer to lie down in a resort hotel with well-equipped facilities to rest, eat, drink, have fun, and enjoy the good environment and exquisite food. The energy I felt after returning from Sanya was really strong, so these few days I came to Fuzhou, Fujian, which is also a city with a sea. You know what, the city of Fuzhou really feels like Sanya to me. It’s just as hot and sunny, and it rains a lot, especially heavy rains. But it stops and the sun comes out immediately. There are also many coconut trees and the sea. The food tastes similar, with a variety of noodles and seafood. Today I stayed at the Fuzhou Marriott Hotel near Xiasha Beach in Changle, Fuzhou. This hotel is really special. It is located in Donghu Digital Town. Because it is newly developed, the surrounding is very quiet and there are almost no people. Basically, everyone within a 3-kilometer radius is in this hotel. This Marriott is very large. It is not a business hotel like other Marriott hotels in the city but a pure resort hotel with a first-line view of East Lake and a unique outdoor wedding hall with coconut trees and a small paddling pool. It is really like Sanya and has a very holiday feel. The rooms, lobby bar, executive lounge, swimming pool, gym and all the other facilities in the hotel allow you to enjoy the first-line lake view everywhere, which is really relaxing. The hotel's executive lounge has a wide variety of dishes and few people, so the experience is very nice. I really give this executive lounge 99 points. The hotel is 3 km away from Changle Xiasha Beach by taxi in 10 minutes , the lighthouse is beautiful, there are not many people on the beach, and there is a cafe. You can enjoy the lake view in the hotel and go to the beach to watch the sea and play in the water. This Fuzhou Marriott Hotel is currently ranked No. 1 among the domestic Marriott hotels I have stayed in. It really surprised me. Moreover, the price of Fuzhou Hotel is also very affordable. The basic room only costs more than 6. This is more cost-effective than going to Sanya to lie in the hotel. I will come again next time!
