Hotels With Pools in Fujian, China

Even though the room rate was quite expensive during the Chinese New Year, which is understandable, the hotel's environment is pretty good. It's located right in the commercial district, so you can shop right outside the door and there are plenty of food options nearby. It's also very close to Sanfang Qixiang, within walking distance. Rooms with even numbers overlook Wuyi Square downstairs, where you can watch the flag-raising ceremony, while odd-numbered rooms face the commercial area.

The location is fantastic, right on a food street with plenty of great restaurants and snack bars nearby. It's only a ten-minute walk to Quanzhou Ancient City's Confucius Temple and Zhongshan Road. Getting to the Maritime Museum and Intangible Cultural Heritage Museum takes just a 10-minute taxi ride. The lobby isn't huge but it's well-equipped. You're greeted by a subtle fragrance upon entering, and there's a reading and relaxation area, as well as a tea-tasting section. They also sell various cultural and creative products and local specialties, along with plenty of tourist guides and route suggestions. The room size is decent, and the layout is practical. I especially liked that the hairdryer was conveniently mounted on the wall next to the mirror – super easy to grab and put back. The amenities provided were also good. While the breakfast selection wasn't extensive, it had all the essentials. Food deliveries were brought right to the room by a robot, which was quick. On the downside, the room lighting was a bit dim, and the elevator felt a bit small and dated. Also, the stairs from the first to the second floor (where breakfast is served) looked a bit old. Overall, though, it offers great value for money and I'd recommend it.

Very good hotel, close to biggest industry which is just a short walk opposite. Area is now much better than before ...food just downstairs ..kfc and Chinese restaurant in shoplots on ground floor.

For a few hundred bucks, I got a five-star experience here. I heard it's the best hotel in Fuzhou, and my stay definitely exceeded expectations. It's right next to a park, with a private walkway directly to the lakeside boardwalk – a very pleasant walk along the lake. **Room Amenities:** Although the hotel has been open for a while, the room facilities are excellent, spotless, and look brand new. While not huge, the space is well-planned, tastefully decorated, and pays attention to details. Toothbrushes are color-coded, there were welcome fruits like oranges and apples, and they even thoughtfully provided a safety fruit knife. The bathrobes were clean, and hand soap and lotion were provided. It was a very comfortable stay. The only minor drawback was that the floor-to-ceiling window wasn't very convenient for ventilation. **Cleanliness:** I'm a bit of a clean freak and usually wipe down everything with disinfectant wipes when I check into a hotel. I can confirm it's very clean; even the tissues weren't dirty. **Breakfast:** Absolutely fantastic! They have live cooking stations with Fuzhou local snacks, including satay noodles and Fuzhou拌面 (mixed noodles), all with authentic flavors – no need to eat out! Other varieties are plentiful, with both Chinese and Western options, and fresh ingredients. What's rare is the wide selection of hot drinks, which is great for people with sensitive stomachs. There's a machine where you can choose from about six hot drinks like red bean and barley, and multi-grain beverages. The pastries were also delicious, not just a throw-in. The beverages were high-quality, like snow pear and white fungus soup, and I even saw bottled Beibingyang soda and wine, which I tried and found to be very good. **Bed:** Quite comfortable, medium-firm. **Parking:** Free parking is available, and there are plenty of spaces on the ground level. Just inform the front desk of your license plate number. **Service:** Excellent and very heartwarming. Seeing that we were a family, they proactively offered an extra breakfast. Later, I stayed at Atour, which was around the same price, but they charged 48 yuan per person for breakfast unless you upgraded to a member to get it free – a world of difference! **Value for Money:** Very high, highly recommended.

Experience with Macro Polo (JinJiang) hotel is pleasant. Room is clean and well maintained. Location is a little away from city area about 20mins car journey (depends on traffic).

As soon as we got off the car, the waiter helped us take our luggage and sent it to the room. The room was quite large, in good sanitary condition, with all kinds of facilities. The service attitude of the front desk staff was also very good. The breakfast was rich in variety, and there was an electric car to deliver it to the hotel gate. The hotel environment is very good, the geographical location is excellent, and it is very close to the ancient city of Zhangzhou. My mother and I are very satisfied with our stay and will choose to stay here again in the future.

Our stay in the Kempinski Hotel's city view suite during Chinese New Year was excellent. The room was spacious and bright. The evening happy hour at the executive lounge offered high-quality food and a diverse selection of drinks, all while overlooking the beautiful Yuandang Lake. Located right by Yuandang Lake, we enjoyed lovely and peaceful evening strolls along the shore, admiring the charming night scenery. We initially booked the suite before the holiday and had an Executive King Room reserved for after. Mr. Chen and Mr. Su were incredibly thoughtful and attentive. To save us the hassle of moving rooms, they kindly arranged for us to extend our stay in the original suite, which we truly appreciate! On the second day of the ***** New Year, the hotel's lion dance performance added a wonderful festive atmosphere. The lobby decorations and the God of Wealth distributing candies to guests in the lobby on the second day were also very delightful! I also want to give a special shout-out to Sunny from the hotel's breakfast department. She was full of energy and vitality every day, greeting guests at the entrance with a radiant smile and a sweet voice, ensuring everyone had a wonderful dining experience!

My stay at InterContinental Quanzhou Taihe exceeded my expectations! The room was spacious and bright, and the cleanliness was impeccable, making for a truly comfortable stay. Breakfast offered a wide variety of delicious options. When I informed them I was leaving early, they even thoughtfully prepared a packed breakfast for me. The hotel is conveniently located right next to Taihe Plaza, with plenty of dining, entertainment, and shopping choices. Highly recommended!

## Review **Ambiance:** I'd say it was just okay, a traditional five-star hotel setup, pretty standard. But I'm not sure if it's because of the humidity in the south, but there was an indescribable smell when I entered the room. **Cleanliness:** The room itself was decent. However, some of the cutlery in the restaurant was a bit dirty. You can see it in the picture if you zoom in – there were hard white spots on the knife. **Service:** The cleaning staff in the guest rooms were very friendly and responsive to requests. However, the front desk service on the 40th floor was just mediocre. I've stayed in many five-diamond hotels of major brands in various cities, and in other cities, the staff always made me feel right at home. But in Fuzhou, they were quite indifferent. The only contact was a perfunctory follow-up call after checking out. I think you could learn from practices in the Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions, as well as Guangdong. They often have dedicated butlers, and both the front desk and butlers actively contact guests, checking in and showing genuine care. Especially in Guangzhou, the service is so good it almost makes you feel embarrassed! **Food:** The breakfast offered mostly local specialties. I'm someone who isn't usually picky, but I found many dishes unappetizing, and the variety wasn't great. I suppose it's understandable if they're trying to cut costs. **Overall, I didn't have a good experience!**

The room was quite clean and comfortable; I stayed for several days and didn't experience any skin irritation. The bathroom was also good, with no unpleasant smells. You need a key card to enter, and my kids really liked the room's decor. There's also a small balcony where they could play with water. Inside, there are some games set up, too. They even have smart robots that deliver food, and some in-room facilities can be voice-controlled. In the morning, there's a buffet with both Chinese and Western options, and the taste is decent, although the variety isn't huge. The hotel is right above a pedestrian street, which makes shopping very convenient, and the transport links are excellent.
