💬 What guests say ★ 3.7 · 52 reviews
Super comfortable stay, the staff were especially friendly, I'll definitely come back next time!
I stayed in a standard room. It was well-equipped, spacious, and bright, with surprisingly large windows and a historic charm. Close to the beach with stunning views. The courtyard greenery is superb, with trees forming a dense canopy, and parking is super convenient.
The hotel's backyard is truly a beautiful sight, featuring many attractions such as a museum, a rare stone gallery, an indoor botanical garden, a boardwalk, the Yellow Sea Pearl, and a seawater bathing beach, making it hard to tear oneself away.

Good to know
Does this hotel accept foreign guests?
Star-rated hotels — especially chains and anything four-star and above — almost always register foreign passports as routine. Smaller local hotels sometimes lack the foreign-guest license. Since 2024 hotels officially may not refuse foreign guests: if refused, call or SMS 12345. Book refundable when unsure.
How do I get there?
Show the big Chinese name above to any taxi or DiDi driver, or tap Find in Amap for turn-by-turn navigation. The Chinese name is what drivers read — English names are rarely recognized.
What does the star rating mean?
China's official hotel star rating is assessed by tourism authorities (GB/T 14308 standard): ★★★ = comfortable and reliable, ★★★★ = high-end with full services, ★★★★★ = luxury. It certifies quality, not foreign-guest policy — that's why we flag it separately.
How do I pay there?
Set up Alipay or WeChat Pay with your foreign Visa/Mastercard before you fly — QR payments work at virtually every hotel. Foreign credit cards are accepted at the front desk of most star-rated hotels. Full payments guide →
