I stay at Jinhai Kaiyuan Hotel every time I go back to my hometown. I've been staying here for over ten years since it opened, and it feels like coming home. The hotel is located by Tianming Lake, and you can enjoy a full view of the lake from your room. It also has a gym and a swimming pool, making it very convenient…
Xiaobin provided attentive service, the stay was pleasant, and the room was clean.
The hotel is not far from the highway, making transportation convenient. The room was spacious and clean, and we were given a room on the 21st floor with a wide view. Most commendable was the warm and attentive front desk service, and the app was easy to use.

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 →
