Hotel Romantic di Guangdong, China

Five-star rating all around! My stay at the Hengqin Bay Hotel was truly a great experience. The location is unbeatable. It's close to both Chimelong Ocean Kingdom and Chimelong Spaceship Theme Park. The shuttle buses run frequently, so there's hardly any waiting time. The cleanliness was top-notch. The lobby was clean and spacious. The hallways were bright and spotless. The bathrooms were dry and stain-free. Every nook and cranny of the guest room was tidy. The bedding was fluffy and odorless. The floors were sparkling clean. I felt very comfortable and at ease. The family-friendly facilities were well thought out. The children's slippers were cute and practical, and the kids' toilet seats were hygienic and convenient, making traveling with children much easier. I have to commend the hotel staff. The front desk was efficient; check-in and check-out were super fast. Luggage storage was meticulously arranged. Their response time was also quick, and their attitude was warm and genuine. The concierge proactively informed us about the shuttle bus schedules, which was very helpful. The breakfast selection was rich and varied. There's a dolphin pool in the middle of the restaurant, and my child loved watching the dolphins while eating. The staff there were warm and attentive. The Chinese cuisine was authentic, with fresh ingredients and generous portions. The dining offered good value for money. The dolphin pillars in the lobby paired with the large chandeliers created a great visual effect. The Kaka and Qiqi mascots interacted in the lobby, dancing and taking photos with the kids, which my child thoroughly enjoyed. We also managed to catch the summer check-in activities. The parking area was spacious and wide, with plenty of free parking spots, making it convenient and worry-free. The guest room was spacious and comfortable, with good lighting and ventilation. The mattress provided excellent support. The bathrobes were soft and comfortable against the skin, and the toiletries were high-quality. Hot water supply was stable and abundant. The air conditioning was powerful for both heating and cooling, and the internet was stable without any disconnections. Overall, my stay was indeed excellent. I will definitely choose this hotel again when I come to Chimelong in the future.

Our stay at Angsana Zhuhai Phoenix Bay honestly felt like a peaceful escape from busy city life. From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere felt calm, private, and relaxing. The hotel itself is beautifully designed and blends very naturally with the seaside surroundings, creating a quiet luxury atmosphere that immediately makes you slow down and enjoy the experience. The room was spacious, modern, spotless, and very comfortable. We especially loved our room location because it was incredibly easy to step outside anytime and enjoy the fresh ocean air, privacy, and relaxing ocean view. Sitting outside during the morning and evening became one of our favorite parts of the stay. The outdoor patio and soaking pool made the experience feel even more special and peaceful, especially at night when the atmosphere became even quieter. The room amenities were excellent, including complimentary minibar drinks, coffee machine, tea selection, bathrobes, ironing equipment, quality toiletries, and many thoughtful details that made the stay feel complete and comfortable. Everything felt carefully prepared and very well maintained. Breakfast was honestly amazing every morning and became one of the highlights of our stay. The fresh colorful fruits, delicious noodles, healthy dishes, fresh juice, and calm dining atmosphere made every morning enjoyable and relaxing instead of rushed. Even though complimentary fruits mentioned in the booking were not provided in the room, we honestly did not mind because the breakfast fruits were incredibly fresh and delicious every day. We also understand why check-in may sometimes take longer because once we entered the room, everything felt perfectly prepared, safe, clean, quiet, functional, and comfortable. We genuinely could not find anything negative during our stay. Thank you and appreciation to all the staff for their warm hospitality, professionalism, kindness, and effort in making our stay memorable, peaceful, and truly relaxing. We would absolutely love to return again in the future.

The hotel was excellent, and the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming throughout our stay. Our queen room was very spacious, and the bedding was changed daily, which made everything feel fresh and comfortable. Whenever we needed assistance, the staff were always quick to help and extremely accommodating. They were especially helpful when we needed directions or transportation, always making sure taxis were arranged for us and that we knew exactly where we were going. The level of service was truly outstanding, and I honestly cannot recommend this hotel enough. I can’t wait to come back again. A special thank you to Mai and May, who kindly helped my mum and me order takeaway when we couldn’t understand the Chinese app. Your hospitality meant so much to us. Thank you as well to the bellman who helped carry our shopping upstairs and to the gentleman who kindly opened our taxi door — every member of the team was so lovely and attentive. My mum and I were visiting during a stressful trip while buying things for my wedding, but your kindness and support made the experience much easier and far more enjoyable. Thank you all so much — we are truly grateful. God bless you.

Facilities: InterContinental's hardware never disappoints. It keeps up with the times, constantly upgrading its amenities. Within the hotel, you have everything you need without stepping out: entertainment, a gym, swimming, games, and dining. Hygiene: Despite being an InterContinental hotel by the sea, there was absolutely no musty smell in the room, which was a pleasant surprise. Every corner of the room was spotlessly clean, and the toiletries were neatly arranged. Buffet: Both breakfast and dinner offered a wide array of choices, all delicious. Dinner and photo shoots need to be booked in advance. Service: What truly impressed me this time was the service. I've always felt that InterContinental's resort hotels generally offer better service than their city counterparts. Before check-in, they called to confirm my arrival and asked about any needs, which they tried their best to accommodate. The guest relations manager, in particular, proactively contacted me to inquire about any special requests. Upon learning I was a member, they thoughtfully arranged a room upgrade when available, which I'm incredibly grateful for. I was extremely satisfied. Throughout my stay, they consistently checked in on my needs. The entire experience was very satisfying and complete. Thank you, InterContinental.

Chimelong Safari Park in Guangzhou definitely lives up to its reputation; it's truly the ultimate place for families with kids. The park is huge, with tons of animals. We managed to see the panda triplets, a large group of koalas, and all the white tigers. You absolutely *must* try the two signature attractions: the free mini-train ride through the open-range area, where giraffes and zebras walk right beside you, creating an immersive experience as if you're on the African savanna; and the transparent-bottomed cable cars, offering a unique aerial view of the entire park from above. The white tiger diving show was fantastic; my child watched it with wide-eyed fascination. At Giraffe Plaza, we could feed the giraffes and interact with them, which made my child incredibly happy. The park paths are gentle, there are plenty of rest spots, and the parent-child facilities are complete, so you can easily take a break when you get tired. We also learned a lot of interesting facts about animals as we explored. My child was excited the entire day, making this trip truly worthwhile. I highly recommend bringing children here!

Five stars, highly recommend Zhuhai Chimelong Penguin Hotel – it's absolutely the top choice for family trips! This time, taking my kid to Ocean Kingdom, staying here made everything so much easier. There's an exclusive pathway just a few minutes' walk directly to the park, and you can even enter an hour early, avoiding the huge crowds. My child easily got to enjoy all their favorite rides without feeling rushed. When they got tired, we could just pop back to the room for a nap and recharge. The whole trip felt completely relaxed. The hotel is adorable, with a penguin theme from top to bottom. You can even see real penguins waddling and swimming in the lobby – my child was cheering the moment we walked in. The room came with a full set of children's toiletries, small slippers, soft bedding, and excellent soundproofing. At the Emperor Penguin restaurant, you can watch penguins while you eat. The food selection is extensive, and the flavors are mild, perfect for little ones. The staff were attentive and thoughtful; check-in was efficient, and they were quick to respond to any requests. Choosing this hotel doubled our happiness for the entire trip. My child keeps talking about the fun times with the penguins and at Ocean Kingdom. Next time we visit Chimelong, Penguin Hotel will definitely be our first choice again!

Location: it's right in the middle of Tianhe, next to the amazing Grandview Mall, and its attractions such as the aquarium, rainforest, science and natural history museums, snow world, and a huge amount of shopping and eating. You could literally spend several days in here, which would be a great place to escape the summer heat. Next door is more upmarket Parc Central and Tee Mall, and over the road is Fashion Tianhe, where the local young people hang out. The hotel itself is in the same building as the Marriott hotel; Marriott hotel occupies the lower 22 floors, whilst this apartment hotel occupies the upper 16 floors. It's also a mixed use building, so as well as self contained apartments, there are plenty of small businesses, such as hairdressers, nail salons, massage, optician, and music studio in the apartments next door too. You need to take two different lifts to get to your apartment - annoying, but not a deal-breaker. There's also nothing close by that is open before 10am, except for the Starbucks downstairs. Apartment: a fairly standard apartment, with bedrooms and a lounge with small dining area. Kitchenette had a microwave, induction hob, washing machine and dishwasher. There were, however, no pots or pans, no plates or bowls, and a grand total of 3 tiny tea cups and 2 spoons and 2 forks. There were also two chairs for our 2 bedroom apartment's dining table. A slightly better equipped self contained apartment would have made the stay better. The rest of the apartment is fairly bare too. A small sofa, sideboard, and coffee table, and a TV that didn't work well. The downstairs bedroom is pretty small but fit a double bed with no space to walk around, whilst the upstairs one had more space. Cleanliness: there place itself was pretty clean. Although the peeling wallpaper and water damage stains made it look less so. Value: it's about 1/3 of the cost of the Marriott downstairs, and you get a whole apartment rather than a room. This makes it much better value than the hotel. Whether you want this basic apartment, or a nice hotel, is a personal choice dependant on your budget. Overall: a basic apartment in a very nice central location. Amenities are very sparse, but overall it's good value.

This Thai-style resort in Huizhou Shuangyue Bay offers an excellent experience. It boasts a private beachfront right outside, and the infinity pool on the 31st floor provides breathtaking panoramic views, perfect for photos. The rooms are spacious, and the balcony features a scenic bathtub, making it incredibly relaxing to lie back and watch the sunrise over the ocean. The water park and children's water fort are well-equipped, making it a one-stop destination for family fun. The front desk service is attentive, and the breakfast offers a wide variety, with the Thai-flavored dishes being particularly distinctive. However, the sand on the beach is indeed a bit coarse.

Overall, I'm very satisfied! Facilities: We booked a family room on the basement level. The room was spacious and clean, though there was a slightly musty smell when we first entered due to several days of continuous rain. After opening the air conditioning and sliding door for about two hours, the smell was mostly gone. The room also came with a small pool for bathing, which the kids absolutely loved. The outdoor playground, water park, and hot spring areas are all massive, with so many activities to do! Two days simply aren't enough to experience everything. Next time, we'll definitely need a three-day, two-night stay to truly enjoy it! 😁

The hotel opened in 2015, so some of the facilities are a bit dated, but they're still functional and everything is very clean. The front desk even upgraded us to a Macau sea-view room when we checked in. We had a minor issue with the room during our stay, but the housekeeping department resolved it very quickly and courteously, and they even called afterwards to follow up and apologize, which was excellent service. The hotel's location and environment are also great. Overall, it offers fantastic value for money; it's at least half the price you'd pay in Macau itself.
