Ocean View Hotels in Fujian, China

Honestly, during the off-season, for a room type like this at just over 150 (CNY), staying on the 60th floor is incredibly good value for money. The room itself is quite spacious. I actually booked this place after reading a review, and honestly, I think it's perfectly fine. I dislike situations where customers are clearly in the wrong or leave bad reviews unfairly, and then the boss blames and scolds the staff. I don't like that. So, sometimes when guests are being unreasonable or trying to take advantage, whether it's a staff member or the owner responding, I think it's perfectly acceptable. A spade is a spade.

I'd been looking forward to staying at the Lujiang Hotel for a long time. Back in 2019, when I traveled to Xiamen, I already had my eye on this prime location. Unfortunately, the hotel was undergoing renovations then, so I couldn't make it happen. This time, I brought my mom for the Dragon Boat Festival and booked three nights here without hesitation. The entire stay was pleasant and perfect. We stayed in a premium sea-view balcony king room. The room offered an unparalleled view directly overlooking the endless ocean. The amenities were brand new and tastefully designed, with a perfect blend of retro charm: from the floor indicator in the elevator on the first floor to the antique telephone on the sixth floor that was actually functional, every detail was thoughtfully considered. Every evening, they offered a different comforting complimentary soup, which they could even reheat if it got a bit cool. The welcome fruit platter was abundant, and these details were especially heartwarming. The hotel also gifted us a Qipao photoshoot at Zhuyanjji, and with the hotel's scenic backdrop, the atmosphere was incredible, resulting in a series of stunning vintage-style photos – an unexpected and delightful surprise. The breakfast package quality far exceeded our expectations. The breakfast spread was extensive, and dining on the terrace while enjoying the views and delicious food was wonderful. Minnan specialties like Shacha noodles, Wu Xiang (five-spice rolls), and Xianyuzhao (savory taro dates) were all available. The dishes were updated regularly, so we didn't get tired of them over our three-day stay. What truly impressed me was the service. The front desk staff was well-organized; even during busy periods, someone was immediately available to assist. Housekeeping was meticulous and thorough. When I got mosquito bites, the front desk provided cooling balm. The doormen proactively opened doors and helped with luggage, all with warmth and decorum, reflecting the calm and thoughtful service of a well-established hotel. My mom and I had a wonderfully relaxing holiday. The Lujiang Hotel certainly lived up to its reputation. This trip was perfect, and I'll definitely stay here again next time I visit Xiamen!

We had a lovely stay, the room’s view was great, bed very comfortable, nice cotton good quality lienen, flexible room service time, water/towels etc always topped up/ refilled. Free luggage storage possible. All really smooth and pleasant. Keep in mind that if you choose smart room- need to say the commands to open the curtains in Chinese. I speak some Chinese and it made the check-in and stay easier, however the person who showed us the room wasn’t very friendly.

Had a terrible experience. The comforter was damp. Aside from the sea view, it was worse than staying at an Atour. The most frustrating thing was the long wait to check out. When I asked the front desk, I was actually scolded! I reflected on it afterwards: 1. I wasn't feeling well and my reactions were slow. 2. If a five-star hotel can't shake off its 'Kong Yiji' (pretentious and outdated) attitude, it should at least maintain its facilities, even if the price is a bit higher. 3. Maybe I haven't stayed at hotels requiring a deposit much in recent years.

This is genuinely the first time I've actively and wholeheartedly given a positive review. The hotel environment is absolutely fantastic, perfect for families with kids – they'll be entertained from morning till night. The hotel also offered so many perks that we couldn't even use them all. Plus, the hotel has a grand layout, which really sets it apart from other family-friendly hotels. The hotel upgraded our room to a waterside room in the main building. This is the first hotel I've ever encountered where you can pack up your buffet breakfast to go! It was incredibly convenient! One morning, the main building restaurant was full with a long queue, so I asked the butler if we could go to the Shuiyuan Restaurant instead. They agreed without hesitation and even arranged for a late check-out. Oh, and adult socks for the kids' club are provided for free! Many other family hotels charge 5 yuan per pair! This really shows their superior approach! We didn't have time to use the complimentary afternoon tea on the day it was offered, but they kindly extended it for us multiple times! Every detail, every request we had, was immediately addressed! They also provided swimming rings and sand toys. In short, with all these thoughtful details, the hotel truly has a big heart and a grand vision! My expectations for family hotels have definitely been raised! Now, for a couple of very minor personal suggestions that I think could be improved: The hotel is very large and primarily caters to families, so the kids' club could be even bigger, perhaps 1500 sq m, 2000 sq m, or even larger, aiming to be the largest kids' club among family hotels in China. I noticed that kids especially love the trampoline, but there's only one, which can lead to older kids without family supervision competing with younger children for it. Other than that, I have no more suggestions; the hotel has done an outstanding job.

Highly recommend the Niaodao Seaview Chaosu! The location is superb, right next to Zhongshan Road and the ferry terminal, within walking distance to major attractions, making it super convenient to get to Gulangyu Island. We booked a sea-view room and the view was absolutely breathtaking, with 180° floor-to-ceiling windows directly facing Gulangyu Island, offering stunning sunrise and sunset views. The room was clean and tidy, well-equipped with smart controls, a smart toilet, a Dyson hairdryer, and more, all with a great sense of design. The owner and staff were warm, friendly, and provided thoughtful service, including free laundry and luggage storage. The overall experience was perfect, and I'll definitely stay here again next time I visit Xiamen!

Facilities: The apartment is well-equipped, and the bathroom has a separate wet and dry area. Cleanliness: The room was clean and hygienic, with no strange odors. Environment: The apartment is very close to the airport, just a few minutes' drive away. Taxis are also very convenient, and there's a shopping mall nearby, so food and drinks are easily accessible. Service: The service was excellent, and the airport pick-up service was great; just contact the owner in advance. They also responded promptly to any issues. The room was very spacious and offered great value for money.

Newly opened and highly recommended! This newly opened seaside gem next to Xinglin Vanke Li in Xiamen is right next to Xinglin Bridge, offering stunning ocean views. The 180° panoramic rooms boast breathtaking views of the entire sea and bridge, captivating you at first sight. You can even watch the sunrise from your bed! The rooms are meticulously cleaned, bright and airy, with attentive and warm service, ensuring a superb stay. Downstairs in Vanke Li, there's a wide variety of restaurants, from fast food and snacks to seafood feasts, catering to all tastes. It's incredibly convenient for all your travel needs: a 5-minute drive to the Garden Expo Park, 15 minutes to Gaoqi Airport and Xiamen North Railway Station, and a half-hour drive to Zhongshan Road Pedestrian Street and the Gulangyu Island ferry terminal. Whether you're arriving in Xiamen, exploring the island, or visiting nearby destinations, it's quick and easy. With ocean views, delicious food, and convenient transportation all in one, book now without hesitation!

I was looking forward to this hotel after seeing the pictures and reviews on trip.com, but it left a lot to be desired. -They don’t provide large towels by default. I assumed they forgot my towels, then when I asked they brought me a set but showed me the disposable ones that were sitting in the room. I couldn’t believe they offer the tiniest, thinnest packets and think that’s an acceptable replacement for normal towels. At this price point, that shouldn’t be a reality anywhere in the world— after countless dozens of hotels I’ve stayed at in China that’s the first time I’ve witnessed such a thing. -They leave the toilet scrubber in the bathroom too, which I also never saw after countless hotels in China; clearly that’s an antiquated practice and doesn’t inspire confidence in the cleanliness of a room. Cleaning tools like that shouldn’t be stored in the guest rooms. -The city view was okay but the window was filthy -The room is no-smoking but they leave an ash tray My booked room says the 20th floor— when I arrived, I lugged my heavy bags to the 20th floor, but they immediately redirected me; we went back down, exited the building to another one nearby, then they checked me into an old room on a 10th floor. I didn’t understand why they did this (that room reeked of smoke too), then we packed everything up and went right back to the original building, to the 20th floor like I booked. Clearly that could have been avoided if they communicated to me the reason for the switch (they said afterwards they were upgrading me to a bigger room? But it was nearly the same size and the 10th floor one was just older, smellier and clearly a downgrade. Odd decision on their part). I’m not sure if this hotel does the delivery robot like most others, I doubt it. Luckily I came to town a day early, so the extra day I booked allowed me to see the condition of the hotel and I was able to cancel the rest of the stay I had booked— but for a fee of over 500rmb. The vast majority of Chinese hotels on this site offer free cancellations but this one was costly. I switched immediately to a brand hotel to be safe— there are countless other options in Xiamen at similar prices, I’d have to recommend looking elsewhere.

Our experience was fantastic! As soon as we drove up, a bellhop jogged over to open the door, immediately helped with our luggage, and directed us to parking. When checking in, the front desk agent, Sophia, noticed I had a child and proactively upgraded our room and brought over kids' toiletries. After checking out, I realized I'd forgotten a book, and when I called, they found it right away. Their perfectly balanced enthusiasm made us feel incredibly welcome. The bedding was high-thread-count and super comfortable, making for a very refreshing sleep. The double vanity, separate walk-in closet, and extra-large bathtub all exuded comfort. As for breakfast, it was incredibly rich and varied; everything you could want was there. We had a great time eating with the kids.
