Hotel Hot Springs di Fujian, China

First time in Zhangzhou, and I felt a welcoming vibe. The hotel is located inside the ancient city, with a charming, traditional courtyard style that's perfect for taking great photos. If you're driving, you have to park in a designated parking lot (15 RMB for 24 hours) and then take a shuttle or walk to the hotel. Right outside the hotel is a lively snack street, bustling with lights and activity. I took a stroll around the ancient city at night; it wasn't too crowded, which was quite pleasant. The only downside is that they don't offer breakfast.

I compared many hotels, including several similar ones in Sanfang Qixiang, and ultimately chose 'Shuxiang Wenru'. First off, the location is incredibly convenient. It's just a few dozen meters from the entrance of Wenrufang on Tonghu Road. The hotel's main gate is truly grand and antique. Though, climbing over the high threshold was a bit of a challenge! In the lobby, you're greeted by elegant and impressive water features and a long row of bookshelves. I booked a king-size room on the third floor. Even though it's an old building, there's an elevator available. The furniture in the room has a distinct Han, Tang, and Ming dynasty style, which I absolutely loved! The toilet, shower, and vanity areas are completely separate. The bed was very comfortable, neither too soft nor too firm. I was especially pleased that the hotel was incredibly quiet at night. It's definitely a peaceful retreat in a bustling area. The breakfast offered a good taste of Fuzhou cuisine; while the variety wasn't extensive, it was refined and just right. The only thing I didn't quite like was the thin, crinkly duvet. Even though the heating was on at night, the duvet felt a bit like sleeping under advertising paper.

The hotel's location is excellent, right inside the ancient city. There are several specialty restaurants downstairs, and directly across is the pedestrian area of the ancient city. **Cleanliness:** The interior is also well-maintained and clean. **Service:** They offered a late check-out until 2 PM (subject to availability), and even provided a buggy to take me to the ancient city entrance, which was convenient for catching a taxi to the station.

This hotel is located by the Jiulong River, directly across from Zhangzhou Old Town. It offers the charm of the old city while providing a peaceful escape from the crowds. From the moment we arrived, we felt the staff's genuine care. The porter brought all our luggage to our room, and Zhang Jingyi at the front desk thoughtfully upgraded our room and gave us a detailed overview of the hotel's facilities. The hotel breakfast, in particular, felt just like home. Cai Chunhua from the Chinese restaurant enthusiastically introduced local delicacies like Shima Wuxiangjuan and Liuao sweet potatoes, patiently bringing each dish to our table. Guests not only get to savor unique local flavors but also learn about the food, making for a truly rewarding experience.

The hotel service was excellent! I forgot my makeup remover and they brought some up to my room in the middle of the night, which I really appreciated. The rooftop is beautiful and perfect for photos. The hotel bed was very comfortable, and the room was spotless. I'll definitely book here again on my next visit.

This hotel is absolutely fantastic! The environment is beautiful and the service is excellent. First off, the room was spotless, and the lighting was comfortable and not harsh on the eyes. The bathroom also had a great wet/dry separation, which I really appreciate. Secondly, the breakfast was varied and nutritious, and you could even pack it to go. Since I was in a hurry in the morning, I just grabbed some food to eat on the way, which was super convenient. The hotel service was also great; all the staff were welcoming with smiles, and you can even store your luggage there. Thumbs up! 👍

The shangri-la putian is conveniently located opposite a huge shopping mall and beside a garden. The room was nice and cosy and the service was attentive and impeccable, with Melvin (?) accompanying us to the room and constantly asked if we needed help with anything. All the staff were friendly and helpful and gave us many suggestions on where we could go during our stay and rarely have we experienced such excellent level of hospitality when staying at similar hotels. The river view we had was amazing. Food at shang garden was tasty, and Lydia's service was excellent, offering us extra snacks and soup. The portions served were huge and reasonably priced. Highly recommended to anyone visiting Putian! 莆田香格里拉酒店地理位置优越，对面就是大型购物中心，旁边就是花园。房间舒适温馨，服务周到细致，一位名叫（Melvin）的服务员亲自送我们到房间，在大堂碰到我们时会问我们是否需要任何帮助。所有员工都非常友好热情，为我们提供了很多游玩建议。入住类似酒店，我们很少体验到如此卓越的服务。房间的河景令人惊艳。香园餐厅的菜肴美味可口，服务员（Lydia）的服务也无可挑剔，还主动为我们提供了额外的点心和汤。菜量十足，价格也十分合理。强烈推荐给所有来莆田的游客！!

We chose this hotel for our trip to Fuzhou with the kids. The room was really spacious, and I loved having a walk-in closet to hang up all our outfits. The vanity and makeup mirror were a thoughtful touch, and there was even an outlet nearby, which was perfect for using my hair straightener. During our stay, it happened to be my birthday, and the hotel surprised me with a cake and a handwritten card – it was such a warm gesture. The hotel's location is super convenient too; it was a short taxi ride to all the attractions, and there were tons of great food options nearby. Plus, if you order takeout, a robot delivers it right to your room quickly. Every staff member we encountered was incredibly friendly and helpful. Highly recommend!

An unexpected surprise on my trip to Zhangzhou! It rained in Zhangzhou, so I spent three days and two nights on Dongshan Island. It rained constantly, and I couldn't get close to the ocean. So, I decided to check out the Tulou (earth buildings) on a whim. I rented a car, enjoyed Yunshui Yao, and drove back to Zhangzhou Old Town. After getting off the highway, I started looking for a hotel. I looked at the online reviews and decided on this one. The reviews were spot-on. The villa was right by the river, only about 10 yuan from the Old Town by Didi. The room had a bathtub, as did the balcony. My hasty departure meant I didn't get to soak in the hot springs or enjoy a cup of tea by the Jiulong River, which was a pity. Next time I come back, Zhangzhou has so much more to offer—beautiful sights and delicious food!

Go for it, you won't regret it! This hot spring hotel delivered all the happiness I needed. The environment is absolutely stunning! Surrounded by green mountains, the hot spring pools are nestled among lush greenery, with mist rising all around like a fairy tale – perfect for photos! The service is impeccable; from the moment I was greeted upon arrival, through check-in, and guidance to the hot springs, the staff were constantly smiling, attentive, and incredibly warm, always ready to help. The food deserves huge praise too; the Chinese and Western buffets offered a huge variety, the desserts were exquisite, and even breakfast was so abundant it was dazzling! The value for money is top-notch. I've already recommended it to my best friend, and I definitely plan to come back for a second visit!
