Getting to Futian Station

No matter where your journey begins such as Hong Kong, Shenzhen city centre, or a nearby airport reaching Futian Station is simple with several convenient transport options.

From Hong Kong

  • By MTR and Foot
    Take the MTR East Rail Line to Lok Ma Chau Station, then follow the clearly marked signs to the Futian Port immigration checkpoint. After clearing both Hong Kong and mainland China customs, it is a short, covered walk directly into Futian District and the station entrance.
  • By High-Speed Train
    For a faster and more comfortable option, board the Guangzhou–Shenzhen–Hong Kong High-Speed Rail at Hong Kong West Kowloon Station. The journey to Futian Station takes about 15–20 minutes, with frequent departures throughout the day. Tickets can be purchased in advance through Trip.com or the official 12306 app, both of which accept international credit cards.

From Shenzhen City

  • Metro Connections
    Futian Station is served by Metro Lines 2, 3, and 11, making it easy to reach from most parts of the city. Trains run every few minutes from early morning until late evening, and clear English signs simplify navigation.
  • Taxi or Ride-Hailing
    Licensed taxis and popular ride-hailing apps such as DiDi provide direct, door-to-door service. This is a convenient choice if you are carrying heavy luggage or travelling late at night.

From Airports

  • Shenzhen Bao’an International Airport (SZX)
    • By Metro: Take Metro Line 11 from the airport directly to Futian Station. The ride is about 35–40 minutes and requires no transfers.
    • By Taxi or DiDi: A taxi ride takes roughly 30–40 minutes, depending on traffic. This is the easiest option if you have large suitcases or arrive after metro operating hours.
  • Hong Kong International Airport (HKG)
    • Airport Express + High-Speed Rail: Ride the Airport Express to Kowloon Station (about 20 minutes). From there, walk or take a short taxi to West Kowloon Station, then board the high-speed train to Futian Station (about 15–20 minutes).
    • Cross-Border Bus: Several direct cross-border coach services operate from HKG to Futian District. After clearing immigration, it’s a brief taxi or metro ride to Futian Station.

Our whole family came from Hong Kong to celebrate our child's birthday. We pre-ordered a cake online and had it delivered to the hotel. We informed the concierge beforehand, and they were incredibly thoughtful, helping us receive it and carefully placing it in the fridge to keep it fresh, saving us a lot of hassle. The family room we booked exceeded our expectations; it was fully decorated with charming cartoon themes and even had a small tent, which our child excitedly played with the moment we walked in. The hotel lobby has claw machines, perfect for keeping the kids entertained. The concierge also proactively gave us detailed recommendations for kid-friendly attractions nearby. The room itself was spacious and bright with a great view from the window. The interior decoration was cozy and soothing. There was a variety of pillows on the bed, including neck support pillows and soft pillows, ensuring a very restful sleep after our long journey. The staff were all very kind and attentive, from helping store our cake to offering comprehensive advice on local activities. The room was clean and tidy, and the facilities were excellent. Overall, our birthday trip was very relaxing and comfortable.

Had a great stay at Hilton Shenzhen Futian. The location is excellent, with direct access to Gangxia North Train Station and plenty of restaurants and eateries nearby. The room was comfortable with a beautiful view overlooking Shenzhen's CBD, and the lobby was elegantly decorated, giving the hotel a luxurious feel. The executive lounge also hard a few alcohol selections, breakfast tasted great and offered many options. A special thanks to Zoey and Layla for reaching out before my arrival and ensuring everything was ready for my stay. Their thoughtful and attentive service made the experience even better. Overall, a fantastic hotel with a great location, comfortable rooms, and outstanding hospitality.

I had a profound experience of a long-standing five-star hotel's pursuit and dedication to quality, and I highly recommend everyone to check it out if you get the chance. It's often said that a mountain doesn't need to be high to be famous if an immortal lives there; similarly, five-star hotels aren't just about endlessly competing on hardware and decor. Focusing on enhancing soft service skills is what truly attracts consumers, and I felt this deeply during my stay. From the efficient handling by Front Desk Manager Zhang Zhiying, to the warm concern of the duty manager, the female manager with the code 066FOLIYA on my checkout bill (didn't catch her name), the staff at the buffet restaurant, the reception at the business center, and the guidance from the housekeeping staff... many details confirmed my impression: the Shangri-La brand still strives for true five-star hotel standards, and I highly commend them.

Pros - Both our rooms at level 10 were relatively close to each other facing the Wong Tee Plaza. It might be a way of the said front desk staff allocating these rooms to us to compensate for our unpleasant check in experience (see below). Spectacular views and we managed to spectate the night light show on Saturday without needing to go to the Civic Centre. - Facilities are great including 24-hour well equipped gym and sauna (best of all hotels in China we experienced so far). - Rooms are relatively new and fully equipped with necessities, has a dyson air dryer, Toto automatic toilet, automated curtains and a steamer to iron the clothes. - Breakfast had a lot of varieties to offer (personally loved the oden and sushi section), good service too. - Housekeeping was amazing. As I was leaving my room, Joy asked if we were interested in their laundry services and we declined as we do not have much laundry to do. After the first day of housekeeping, she noticed we did simple laundry (1-2 pieces of undergarment) and offered us a complimentary mini laundry detergent. We appreciate her thoughtfulness despite the fact that we initially declined her services. - Check out was relatively seamless, I believe it was the front office manager that managed our check out and explained the deposit refund procedures accordingly. - Concierge was decent too as they suggested we are better off getting a Didi to transfer our move to our next destination, and helped us load our bags to the Didi. Cons The only downside experience was check in. We requested if it would be possible to have interconnecting rooms (all good if not, at least as close to each other as possible within the same floor). We were advised that given interconnecting rooms are not available for the same type of rooms: 1.The staff provided an offer (upgrade to one of the bigger rooms that has interconnecting room with free 3 days hotel breakfast for 2 out of 4 pax). The quote/offer was outside of our budget hence we declined the offer and we just accept our original booking via Trip.com with no interconnecting rooms. 2.After we declined, the staff informed us that she miscalculated the price (from RMB 31k down to RMB 20k) for the same offer. This is very odd/confusing to us especially with the price difference due to miscalculation, and she was trying to push this offer to us again which we declined. At this point, whatever price quoted to us of this offer lost its credibility and we proceeded to stick to our original booking. 3.The staff said that she will notify us via WeChat (she added us on WeChat) once the room is ready. Understood at that time it was before check in time (i.e. before 3pm) hence we decided to grab lunch and come back after the check in time. It was past 3pm and we heard nothing from her upon returning to hotel and had to approach the front desk to ask for an update. The same staff managed to provide us key card for one of the rooms while the other room is still not ready (it was past 3:20pm at that time). She said that she will arrange one of her coworkers to deliver the keycards to us once that other room is ready. Around 3:50-4:20pm, we heard nothing (I walked past the other room and noted the housekeeping has finished cleaning up the room and left). I had to go to the front desk to request an update and eventually obtained the keycard. I am not sure if the above stems from the individual's motivation or if this is part of the hotel's standard procedure to aggressively upsell (even if we already said no) or if the front desk is pressured to meet monthly KPIs, but that left us an unpleasant check in experience and obviously did not represent the check in hospitality standards of the hotel itself. Aside from the check in, we loved everything hence we had to give 4 out of 5.

It's true that all hotels in Shenzhen, including the Four Seasons, are primarily business hotels, giving off a strong business vibe rather than a resort feel. The location is incredibly convenient, especially its proximity to Futian Station, making it super cost-effective for same-day return trips to Hong Kong for meetings. The service at the Four Seasons is, as expected, impeccable – appropriately warm and meticulous. Cleanliness is a given. There were only two minor discomforts: first, we were initially given a corner room, and my wife had nightmares staying there at night. When we asked to switch, they didn't clearly inform her that the new room would incur an upgrade fee. They quietly deducted it from my deposit, which felt a bit uncomfortable. They could have been upfront about it instead of doing it discreetly. BTW, the Zhuo Yue Xuan at the Four Seasons is genuinely delicious, but remember to ask for less white wine in the char siu.

Facilities: While not new, you can tell the facilities were top-notch in their day, especially the thick walls which provide excellent soundproofing. Cleanliness: The cleanliness was a pleasant surprise. My child crawled around and played, and we didn't spot any overlooked dirty corners. We also visited the kids' play area. Although it's just one room, it was very clean – I didn't find a single hair in the ball pit. Service: The service was also great. Lily, the restaurant manager, and Lena from the lobby were both excellent, attentive without being intrusive. Additionally, breakfast was good; it wasn't crowded, and the variety and taste of the dishes were impressive. The noodle chef was also very kind. The Chinese restaurant doesn't use pre-made meals; the quality was high, and the flavors were a delightful surprise!

It's right next to the Dongmen Old Street metro station, making it super convenient for night markets, trying out local food, and shopping. Plus, you can reach all the major attractions directly by subway. The rooms are very spacious, and the suite layout feels open and airy. The cleanliness is impeccable, and the mattress is just the right firmness, allowing for a good rest after a long day of travel. The hotel staff provide thoughtful and warm service, and the public areas are beautifully decorated with lush greenery, creating a great ambiance. The gym and lounge areas are well-equipped.

The location of the hotel is just perfect! 2 minutes of a walking distance to the Sea World. The room was clean. And the laundry service was available as well. Personally, I used the iron and the ironing board. But there were some disappointing facts about the shower cabin. The water pours and leaks out of the cabin which makes the floor so wet, so no towels can help, and I had to collect it with my slippers apparently. And there was shampoo in the shampoo and conditioner containers both which means I just washed my head twice. I’d recommend the hotel stuff mind these details. But, nevertheless, thanks my stay there!

The staff on the first floor were proactive in helping me with my luggage and took it to the elevator. When checking in at the 31st-floor reception, Ryan greeted us warmly. I specifically sought him out, and he kindly assigned us a high-floor room on the 48th floor and even offered complimentary breakfast for the children! A big thumbs up for that! 👍 **Room** The website stated 43 square meters, which felt about right, a standard size. The in-room tea was Twinings tea bags, both green and black tea. The fixtures, like the faucets and showerhead, seemed newer than those at the Hyatt in Dongguan. The hairdryer was a Lefein, with strong airflow, a big plus! The shower pressure was excellent, another thumbs up! 👍 The linens were standard, and housekeeping was very prompt; our room was already clean when we returned from breakfast. The twin beds were 1.2 meters wide; though small, they were firm and could be moved together. The only thing I didn't like was the quality of the toothbrushes; I recommend bringing your own if you're particular. The air conditioning was quite noisy. **Food** The dinner buffet was fantastic! The chef team spoke Cantonese, and the hot Cantonese dishes were on point, especially the black char siu – delicious! The stir-fried vegetables were all good, and the boiled beef in chili oil was excellent! You could also get clay pot garlic seafood made fresh on the spot; you pick your ingredients and hand them to the chef to prepare. Sashimi was readily available on platters for self-service without waiting. The grilled beef at the live station was incredibly tender; my child had three servings! There were also grilled squid and other meats, with a short wait of only three or four people. Desserts included Napoleon cake, cheesecake, and durian mille-feuille, all made fresh by the chefs. The individual serving was steamed lobster with glass noodles, and the meat was springy and very fresh! If I had to pick a fault, it would be the lack of freshly squeezed juice. In comparison, breakfast was slightly disappointing. During the May Day holiday, if you arrived at the restaurant a bit late, you had to queue. Also, later on, the freshly squeezed juice dispenser was empty and not refilled. The noodle bar only offered minced meat and green beans as toppings, and there was no good chili sauce. The variety of Chinese hot dishes was limited. The highlight was the freshly made wontons; although they took a while to cook and there was a long queue, they were amazing when I finally got to eat them! The soup was incredibly flavorful! Breakfast was just about filling, but the quality was a bit lacking. **Public Areas** The lobby on the 31st floor offered beautiful sea and mountain views. The gym was outsourced but truly professional and spacious! There was even a 24-hour gym! The swimming pool was smaller than expected, with shallow water, and was an outdoor heated pool. Children's facilities were minimal, almost non-existent. There were parent-child activities, such as handicrafts, which we didn't participate in. After dinner, you could walk to the seaside boardwalk; though crowded and noisy, it was sufficient for a stroll. The hotel was a 10-minute walk from the entrance to Bitongdao on Wutong Mountain, making it convenient for hiking. Staying at the Hyatt in Yantian during the holiday ensures good food and accommodation, allows for hiking, and offers easy access by car or metro to OCT (Overseas Chinese Town) or Dameisha/Xiaomeisha for an enjoyable trip!

Whether you're here to take great photos by the sea or just for a pure vacation, even a week-long stay is incredibly comfortable and relaxing. They also have a restaurant with a varied menu, offering both Chinese and Western dishes, and the food is delicious. This time, my partner and I stayed for four days and three nights, and it was a truly thorough rest and relaxation. We enjoyed ourselves while also getting some great shots both inside and outside the room. There are plenty of great food options nearby too.
