When you walk into the lobby you experience an overwhelming sense of grandeur. This lobby could be in the middle of Las Vegas and not be out of place. The front desk staff worked with me to provide an excellent room and offered the wireless internet access as well. The room was fantastic. A huge bathroom with a tub and separate, fully glass enclosed, shower. Some might consider it a little dated but I felt it was very comfortable. Slippers and robes are provided standard. The only problem I had was finding an outlet that worked. I ended up utilizing the bathroom plug reserved for razors. The hotel is in the middle of town and close to shopping and many excellent resteraunts. Try the HotPot next door. I will go back again

“Quiet, comfortable and warm, let down by the Little Things”

Stayed here for two days on business in middle of November so minus degrees outside. Lobby is magnificent, and on the 13th floor everything is well appointed. [ I strolled around some of the low floors and they look like they need some work] Room was very hot to start with and ac also blew hot air,… more

Stayed here for two days on business in middle of November so minus degrees outside. Lobby is magnificent, and on the 13th floor everything is well appointed. [ I strolled around some of the low floors and they look like they need some work] Room was very hot to start with and ac also blew hot air, so switched off the conditioning and opened the window. -11C outside kept the room just right. Good fast internet with instant access. Large TV. Comfy bed. Quiet. But, nice coffee /tea facilities provided but the kettle lead doesn't reach the nearest plug. see photos. So on the floor or next to your laptop. Shower head would not adjust to spray - only jet-stream. Gym was well appointed for a hotel and the business centre ok. I didn't check out the pool Breakfast is a ridiculous price but there is a place a few metres to the right of the front door you can get a buffet cheap-as-chips and as you help yourself you don't even need to speak Chinese. Two of us ate for around RMB30 [$4.50]. Across the road to the right is a line of small good value restaurants, and about 300 m to the right of the main entrance [same side as hotel] is a large mall open 09:30 - 21:30 hrs with KFC, Pizza Hut, Starbucks, MacDonald etc if you want that sort of muck. Large supermarket downstairs for pot noodles, fruit or anything else that you might need. Opposite the mall is a nice park for a cold evening stroll. Lots of karaoke places if you like that sort of thing, plenty of ATMs and good restaurants within a short stroll . Oh yes, top floor of the mall is ALL eating places. - Korean, Chinese, Fusion etc. take your pick.

I chose this hotel because I could get a l AFFORDABLE Suite with separate bedroom so kid can sleep on rollaway bed in the other area. Rollaways cost 150 rmb per night, cheaper than most places. The hotel is quite dated and a little dusty. It’s 3 star quality by western standards but was listed as a 5 star in China. Compared to a 5 star in Shanghai (Radisson) it’s 3/4. But we came not for the hotel. The savings on price is at the expense of location. 20 to 30 minute taxi ride to the main tourist zone. But we’ll go there and stay the whole day and return at nighttime. Hotel has nothing within short walking distance, closest mini mart is 500 m and has only the basics. Breakfast mediocre. Taxi from airport about 120 but we took the deluxe car for 300.
