Le Méridien Xiamen

J'avais initialement prévu d'emmener mon fils nager le week-end, mais après avoir constaté les mauvaises conditions de la salle de sport au premier étage de l'hôtel, je n'ai pas voulu aller à la piscine. Il s'agit d'une salle de sport, désolé pour le nombre d'étoiles de l'hôtel. Cependant, le sentiment général du Méridien n'est pas très bon pour moi, il ressemble plutôt à un hôtel ordinaire en Chine, ce qui est différent de l'impression que j'avais il y a 10 ans. Je n'ai pris aucune photo, rien à prendre en photo

The hotel is "hidden away" in a forest/hill. They do offer a shuttle service to the cities attractions one-way, which you can use daily, so you'd only have to use Didi for the way back. Considering Xiamen is quite a compact city, it's not too inconvenient. But going out in the evening for a night market, or dinner, does require either quite a hike, or always a taxi/Didi ride. If you do like a place that's quiet and just a few minutes by car away from the city, this hotel is for you. If you want a city hotel, where you can find bars/restaurants/supermarkets next door, you're looking at the wrong place. Rooms are regular for a 5* property, nothing wrong. Yes, as others commented, there is a bit of a wet smell in the rooms - due to the hotels location. First room I was given was smelling too bad, second attempt gave me a better smelling room. At least myself, got used to it after a moment in the room. Pool is large, and clean. Proper Sauna as well. Had the executive room with lounge access included (and breakfast). Breakfast was excellent, very solid 5*. Not the best I've ever had, but certainly VERY solid. Club lounge can get busy, and the offerings are better than what you'd otherwise expect. Willa Wu and Cupid Chi, the two ladies running the Executive lounge, gave great hospitality. Really top notch. In short: If you're sensitive on rooms smelling wet and/or want a hotel located in the middle of the city, this hotel isn't for you. Otherwise, it's great. I trully enjoyed my stay, and would stay here again in the future.

Preferably, they should have installed USB charger in the room, room light was not suffecient. a bench outside the front door for smokers, otherwise all were okay
