Cina: hotel con servizio colazione nella provincia di Fujian

This place makes me wish there was an option for six stars. I study Asian art for a living, and I travelled to Jianyang to visit the home of Jian ware, classic tea bowls of the Song dynasty (960 to 1279 CE), distinguished by their black and brown glazes. Over the last few decades, firing Jian ware in the Song tradition has been revived in the area. I chose Nanping Colourful Village Homestay because it was in Jianyang, affordable, and accepted international guests. What I found was a luxury resort with all the warmth and personal attention of a homestay. I asked the front desk about an excavated Song kiln site in a nearby village, and the receptionist brought me the manager, who arranged for someone to take me the next day. My driver was Ms. Huang, an employee of the resort whose job involves buying and selling contemporary pieces. She knew everything about Jian ware! The kiln site isn’t run as a tourist site, so I was only able to view it because Ms. Huang arranged for it to be opened for me. I had told them I was vegetarian, so for lunch they took me to lunch at a vegetarian buffet. Then we visited the town’s Jian ware museum, where they have exhibits on the history of tea and Jian ware, historical pieces, and the work of contemporary Jianyang potters. To my delight, Mr. Gao, the potter-in-residence at the resort, uses a Song-style wood-fired dragon kiln, built right on the grounds! His pieces that range from beautiful but quite affordable to exquisite and appropriately expensive. They include both iridescent silvery oil spot and orange-to-black hare’s fur pieces. I am still thrilled that I was able to purchase wood-fired pieces on my limited budget. For dinner, the resort’s restaurant prepared vegetarian versions of Fujian cuisine for me. The food was all delicious, featuring classic Fujianese mountain ingredients like local bamboo and mushrooms. Then we visited Mr. Gao’s dragon kiln, and later his studio, where he experiments with different local clays and glaze recipes. The rich colours and iridescence of Jian ware are the result of the iron-rich local material fired at high temperature, and the results are as unpredictable as they are beautiful. The next day, they drove me to Mr. Chen’s family tea plantation in the mountains, where they grow famous northern Fujian teas. These fine teas were all wonderful, smooth and rich with a touch of smoke, and sometimes fruity in flavour. We strolled through mountainsides of tea bushes and visited groves of centuries-old tea trees. This is a perfect place for an immersive experience in China that is also very comfortable and convenient. I often find tourist experiences in China claustrophobic due to the press of people, but the resort was spacious and airy, and they took me to places where there was no one else but us and the occasional local going about their business. Everyone was very patient with my limited Chinese language skills. They were also happy to work with translator apps on our phones, so if you don’t speak any Chinese, you will be fine. This would be a great place to come as a family. There are gardens and rides for kids right next to the resort. You can learn how to whip Song-style tea and carve your name into the base of your own Jian ware cup. Not far away is a historical theme park with a collection of real architecture from the Ming (1368 to 1644 CE) and Qing (1636 to 1912 CE) dynasties. The employees wear period dress and there are performances and activities. Nearby there are hiking trails, historical sites, and lovely villages to visit. It’s also very close to Wuyi Mountain National Park, so it would be a perfect place to stay if the mountains are your destination. If you ask, they could arrange for you to visit famous sites or take you to breathtaking places that only locals know, whatever you want. They can also arrange transport to and from the train station or airport.

Ottima esperienza in hotel questa volta a Fuzhou! Il personale è stato estremamente cordiale e premuroso, sempre disponibile e attento. Ho dovuto prolungare il check-out all'ultimo minuto per un imprevisto pomeridiano e la reception ha prontamente acconsentito, dimostrando grande flessibilità. La colazione era varia e deliziosa. Soggiorno confortevole e senza preoccupazioni, tornerò sicuramente qui la prossima volta che sarò a Fuzhou. Lo consiglio vivamente!

This is a duplicate of my review for dates from 6 to 8 June 2026, as I extended my stay for one night. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at this hotel and would happily stay here again. The location is excellent. It's right next to the metro, directly across the road from China City Mall, and within easy walking distance of Zhongshan Road Pedestrian Street, the waterfront and the ferry wharf. It made exploring Xiamen incredibly easy. The staff were consistently helpful and efficient. They obtained information about the Xiamen-Kinmen ferry, which was greatly appreciated. The breakfast restaurant staff deserve special mention as they were always friendly, welcoming and genuinely seemed pleased to see their guests each morning. The room itself was lovely. The bed was extremely comfortable, the bathroom was excellent and while I didn't use the bath, the shower was very good. The hotel also has a nice swimming pool, gym and lounge area, all of which added to the overall experience. Breakfast was good, with plenty of choices, both Asian and Western, and a pleasant atmosphere. I only intended to stay a short time, but enjoyed both the hotel and Xiamen enough that I extended my stay by an extra night. From my room I had good views, including Zheng Chenggong's statue on Gulangyu Island and Xiamen's Twin Towers in the distance. This hotel certainly helped make my stay in Xiamen an enjoyable one. I left with very positive memories and would gladly stay here again.

A qualche minuto dalla metro che arriva direttamente dalla stazione nord, e vicino al molo dei traghetti per Gulanyu, in posizione centrale al quarto piano di un centro commerciale. Appena si apre l ascensore si sente profumo e tutta l area comune ampia e soleggiata appare come oasi serena, zen. Alla reception giovani molto gentili che si danno da fare, utilizzano il traduttore per comunicare. Angolo the h24. Colazione cinese con molto di salato. Macchina del caffè Lavazza. Camere ampie, luminose, letti molto comodi. Lavanderia gratis self service. Ci siamo trovati benissimo, utilizzato come base anche per i Tulou del Fujian.

La camera è pulita e ordinata, l'ambiente è confortevole, l'Hilton è molto buono. Un ringraziamento speciale a Polly, la governante dell'hotel, che ha consultato le nostre esigenze prima del check-in e ha prenotato una tipologia di camera che soddisfacesse le nostre esigenze. Dopo il check-in abbiamo anche offerto uno spuntino alla frutta ai bambini. Inizialmente avevamo programmato di rimanere per due notti, ma era abbastanza confortevole. La nostra ospite Polly ha prolungato il nostro soggiorno per un'altra notte, quindi siamo rimasti per tre notti. Quando visiti Fuzhou, puoi dare la priorità a Sandi Hilton.

📍 青年阳光S酒店（厦门会展中心加州广场店） 🏨 Youth Sunshine S Hotel (Xiamen International Convention & Exhibition Center California Plaza Branch) 🗓 Check-in Date: February 15, 2026 🗓 Check-out Date: February 19, 2026 🕘 Departure Time: 5:00 PM (Special Request Accepted) We arrived at the hotel at 9:45 PM on the eve of Chinese New Year. Given the late hour and festive season, we were concerned that nearby restaurants might already be closed. To our pleasant surprise, several small eateries within 50 meters of the hotel were still open, allowing us to enjoy a proper late dinner. It was a reassuring start to our stay. The hotel’s environment is comfortable and welcoming. The lobby features a bright, clean design with warm wood tones and soft lighting that create a calm, relaxing atmosphere. A tasteful display area and cozy seating space add a subtle blend of business functionality and artistic charm. The front desk staff were professional and courteous, and the check-in process was smooth and efficient despite the late hour. We stayed in the Premier Themed Room (Japanese Style with Sakura), which was truly one of the highlights of our trip. Upon entering, we were greeted by a beautifully designed Japanese-inspired interior. Warm lighting, wooden flooring, and delicate sakura (cherry blossom) wall art created a serene and elegant ambiance. Wooden partition panels and subtle decorative details added refinement, giving the space an artistic yet tranquil feel — almost like a small ryokan-style retreat in the heart of Xiamen. The room was thoughtfully designed, spacious, and impeccably clean. A charming feature was the private balcony, which allowed fresh air in. The bed was exceptionally comfortable, dressed in crisp white linens. The mattress offered excellent support, and the pillows were soft yet supportive, ensuring a restful night’s sleep. All essential toiletries were generously provided, including shampoo, conditioner, body wash, dental kits, slippers, and towels. Everything was neatly arranged and well-maintained, reflecting attention to guest comfort. The complimentary breakfast was another pleasant surprise. It offered a good variety of well-prepared options, making it a satisfying way to start each day. The location is highly convenient, close to the Xiamen International Convention & Exhibition Center, with California Plaza Shopping Mall next door offering numerous dining choices. Whether for business or leisure, the hotel is an excellent option. Most importantly, the nightly rate was very reasonable and offered excellent value, especially considering the themed décor, balcony, full amenities, and included breakfast. The stay exceeded our expectations. We would gladly choose this room again on our next visit. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Highly recommended!

L'hotel è facile da trovare, è proprio lungo la strada con un grande segnale. È anche una passeggiata che va a West Street e Ancient City ... È anche possibile scansionare e guidare una bicicletta elettronica, se hai un numero cinese. Non ho avuto molta interazione con il desk front, ma il processo di check-in è stato veloce. La stanza era pulita e molto spaziosa! Il bagno era anche bello e tempestoso. Resterò qui!

The location is very nice not far from the airport and the subway with good price. The staffs are so lovely and kind. The room is clean and good. Breakfast is quite small choice but it’s not bad. It has a laundry room for free. You can keep your luggage and get them back. The bathroom is clean too. Overall I recommend this hotel.

My recent stay at the Kulangsi Resort in Xiamen was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we arrived, it was clear this was a special place dedicated to providing a tranquil and luxurious getaway. Wonderful Environment: The resort is beautifully situated, offering a perfect blend of lush, manicured gardens and serene landscapes. It feels like a hidden oasis away from the city's hustle and bustle, yet it remains conveniently located. The views are stunning, and the overall atmosphere is one of peace and relaxation. It's an ideal spot for both couples and families looking to unwind. Excellent Hotel Facilities: The facilities are top-notch. Our room was spacious, impeccably clean, and featured a modern design with all the amenities one could ask for. The bed was incredibly comfortable, ensuring a great night's sleep. Beyond the room, the swimming pool was a delight, and the fitness center was well-equipped. Every corner of the resort is maintained to a very high standard. Standout Service from 小陈 (Xiao Chen): While every staff member we encountered was professional and friendly, one individual truly made our stay unforgettable: a gentleman named 小陈 (Xiao Chen). His service was, without exaggeration, world-class. He was incredibly thoughtful and anticipatory, always seeming to know what we needed before we even asked. From offering insightful local tips to ensuring every small detail of our room was perfect, his attention to care was remarkable. He embodies the true spirit of hospitality and is a tremendous asset to the Kulangsi Resort. Verdict: I wholeheartedly recommend the Kulangsi Resort. The beautiful environment and excellent facilities provide the perfect backdrop, but it's the outstanding service from people like Xiao Chen that transforms a great stay into a truly memorable one. We will definitely be returning. 这次在厦门 Kulangsi 度假村的体验令人难以忘怀。这里不仅环境优美，设施一流，更有一位服务人员让我们感受到了什么是真正世界级的服务。 优美环境： 度假村的环境设计得非常出色，犹如一个远离尘嚣的世外桃源。绿植郁郁葱葱，景观宁静雅致，处处都透露出一种静谧与和谐。无论是散步还是静坐，都让人心旷神怡，是放松身心的绝佳去处。 一流的酒店设施： 酒店的设施堪称完美。我们入住的房间宽敞明亮，干净整洁，现代感的装修风格搭配齐全的设施，细节考虑周到。床品尤其舒适，保证了高质量的睡眠。此外，游泳池、健身中心等设施也都维护得非常好，体验感极佳。 值得称赞的服务——特别感谢小陈： 酒店的整体服务水准很高，但我们必须特别表扬一位员工——小陈。他的服务让我们感受到了什么是“超五星”的标准。小陈先生非常细心周到，具有极强的预见性，总能在我们提出需求之前就提供贴心的帮助。从专业的入住引导，到详尽的本地游玩建议，再到对房间细节的关注，他真正做到了“宾至如归”。他热情而专业的服务态度，是这家度假村最宝贵的财富。 总结： 我毫无保留地推荐厦门 Kulangsi 度假村。绝佳的环境和设施已经足够吸引人，而像小陈这样优秀的员工所提供的卓越服务，更是让这次住宿从“很好”升华到了“完美”的体验。我们一定会再次光临。

Ho trascorso un soggiorno molto piacevole al Metropolo Jinjiang Hotel (Fuzhou Three Lanes and Seven Alleys East Street). È possibile prendere l'uscita B della metropolitana DongJieKou, dopo l'uscita bisogna svoltare a sinistra e percorrere meno di 50 metri fino alla hall dell'hotel. L'hotel è situato in posizione ideale, a pochi passi dalle famose Three Lanes and Seven Alleys, il che lo rende estremamente comodo per visitare la città, fare shopping e scoprire la cultura e la cucina locale. La camera era enorme, pulita, moderna e confortevole, con un arredamento di buon gusto e un'ottima insonorizzazione. Il letto era comodo e la camera era ben attrezzata con tutto il necessario per un soggiorno piacevole. Il personale delle pulizie si è preso cura della camera in modo impeccabile per tutta la durata del mio soggiorno. Il personale dell'hotel è stato professionale, cordiale e attento. Il check-in e il check-out sono stati semplici e il personale è sempre stato disponibile ad assistermi con indicazioni o richieste. C'era una giovane receptionist di turno quando ho fatto il check-in il 5 gennaio 2026 verso mezzogiorno. Ricordo che il suo nome terminava con ”Na” e mi scuso sinceramente di non riuscire a ricordare il suo nome completo. Sono rimasto estremamente colpito dalla sua professionalità, dal suo atteggiamento di servizio e dalla sua cordialità. Vorrei cogliere l'occasione per esprimere la mia più sincera gratitudine per la sua eccezionale assistenza. La mattina seguente, il mio rasoio elettrico non funzionava più e non sapevo dove acquistare lo stesso modello e modello. Mi ha gentilmente assistito effettuando un ordine tramite l'app ******* e il rasoio è stato consegnato alla reception dell'hotel in meno di un'ora, risolvendo il mio problema molto rapidamente. Sono rimasto davvero colpito dalla sua iniziativa e dal livello di servizio eccezionale che ha offerto. Grazie mille per il suo gentile aiuto. Anche la colazione servita al ristorante al 4° piano è conveniente. Offre una combinazione di cucina orientale e occidentale. L'unico suggerimento che vorrei condividere è che spero sinceramente che la direzione dell'hotel possa prendere in considerazione la sostituzione della moquette lungo il corridoio che porta alle camere nel prossimo futuro. L'attuale moquette chiara mostra molto facilmente lo sporco e tende a risultare antiestetica nonostante la pulizia regolare. Nel complesso, l'hotel offre un eccellente rapporto qualità-prezzo grazie alla sua posizione strategica, alle camere confortevoli e al servizio affidabile. Consiglio vivamente il Metropolo Jinjiang Hotel a chiunque visiti Fuzhou e ci tornerei volentieri.
