  Odd hotel...

  Two things contributed to this poor rating: 1. we arrived late at night. the receptionist was unable to process my visa. we paid instead for the entire 3 night stay upfront in cash. however, she was unable to provide us with a receipt for the payment, which I thought was extremely odd practice. on my insistence she ended up scribbling a short note on a piece of paper, which was less than reassuring 2. we accidentally left behind some chocolates that we'd purchased in Japan. when I called 5 hours after we checked out, I was told that no one had stayed in the room the night before (wtf???) and that of course there was nothing in the fridge. it's okay if the housekeeping tossed the chocolates or took them, but I thought it was strange that they kept saying no one had stayed in the room anyway I was pretty sad to lose my souvenir and probably won't be in a rush to return to this hotel again in the future.

  Generally my take is similar to most here. Clean and quiet rooms. A/c worked ( a relief!) breakfast buffet is excellent and varied - as is the dinner. Staff friendly. Maybe not as Westerner friendly as big chains. The one definite downside was that the WiFi is barely usable. Business travelers - or those who just need/ like WiFi - will get frustrated I didnt get to the botanical gardens but liked the small park more or less opposite which had an interesting series of statues

  One hotel - two completely different experiences

  The City Hotel Xiamen is conventiently located in walking disctance to subway station, to main shopping street, to lively fish and seafood market and other places to see and to walk. Breakfast is full of choices from all around the world - from European style cheese and sausages to Malay special food, lots of Chinese hot and cold dishes, loads of delicious cake and whatever you wish for a rich breakfast. 70 yuan per breakfast - very reasonable. We stayed twice at the hotel as we did an intermediate trip to Fujian tulous. First stay: hotel room with no cupboards, no wardrobe, no bathtub, no carpet...how to do Yoga exercises in the morning...overall: the charme of a youth hostel - which is a unpleasant surprise as the elegant hotel entrance seems to promise a good stay. Second stay: as I am able to communicate in Chinese language I insisted to have now a room with a nice big wardrobe - no wardrobe forced to live with all belogings either in the suitcases or distributed on the floor... After some discussions in Chinese this time we were given a room in the same building (Building 5) - and what a surprise: it was a real reasonable hotel room with nice furtniture , enough space for personal items and clothes, cupboards and wardrobe, wow - carpet on the floor - good for Yoga...and a bathtub. Suddenly this was the style I expect from such midprice location - same price. Hence, learn some Chinese before you go to this hotel, English is not spoken, indicate early when you are not pleased with the room. And enjoy the excellent breakfast!

  Decent good hotel

  Stayed 1 night with family after arriving at xiamen. It took about 20 minutes by taxi from airport to arrive. It is a decent hotel. Breakfast spread was good. Had a good night sleep. Overall no complaint.

  Comfortable Stay

  Stayed here for a night for business. Found it very comfortable and spacious. There is greenery and not too close to the busy streets but yet not too far from amenities. The cab ride to the Zhongshan pedestrian street took only 15 minutes furing peak hour, Breakfast was nice with a good variety of food. Service was also decent.
