5-Star Hotels in Hebei, China

It was already noon when we arrived, and the front desk kindly allowed us to check in early. They also prepared the extra bed rail and mineral water we requested. The chaise lounge in the room was incredibly useful for me; my child could play, sleep, and watch TV on it easily. 🍚 Breakfast: For children over 1.2m, there's an extra charge of 40 yuan. The variety was decent, mostly cold cuts or processed sausages for meat, with plenty of carbs, vegetables, and fruits. They also offered a savory milk tea, which was quite good. 🛝 The hotel has a small game room with a mini slide and trampoline, suitable for toddlers. It's a nice touch. 🏊 The pool costs 10 yuan per person for guests, and it's also open to the public. We participated in a promotional event that waived the fee. The changing rooms were clean. The pool isn't huge but sufficient, and there's a small mushroom pool with a higher temperature than the main pool, which was great. My little one had a lot of fun, and you can see the mountains and cable car from outside the pool area, offering nice views. Areas for improvement: We stayed on the 3rd floor. There might have been an odor from the sink, and the bathroom didn't have an exhaust fan, so the air felt stuffy. We kept the windows and doors open, but thankfully, there were no mosquitoes. Overall, I feel we chose the right hotel. After looking around, it seems much better than the Crowne Plaza.

Staying at the Ximei Wuzhou Hotel in Shijiazhuang was an absolutely fantastic experience. The lobby is grand and stylish, and the room has excellent natural light with expansive views from the floor-to-ceiling windows. The bathroom has a separate wet and dry area, and the toiletries are of good quality. We even received complimentary welcome fruit and yogurt upon check-in. A major highlight is the 27th-floor infinity-edge constant temperature pool; the water is crystal clear, and the ambiance is incredible. The gym is well-equipped. The breakfast offers a wide selection of both Chinese and Western dishes, including local specialties. The service is thoughtful and meticulous, with turn-down service offered in the evenings. The surrounding area has plenty of dining, entertainment, and shopping options. Plus, there's free indoor parking. It's perfectly suited whether you're traveling or just need a temporary stay. Highly recommended!

I highly recommend the NOAH ANNAYA HOTEL, and I must give a special shout-out to our dedicated butler, Wendy. Our stay this time was truly warm and unforgettable! Before we even left, I was constantly asking questions about the various attractions in the Anaya resort. Wendy always responded patiently, clearly explaining the entry procedures for the park, how to use the shuttle bus, and other important information. She even helped us plan our itinerary based on our travel times and thoughtfully reminded us about the significant temperature difference between day and night by the sea, suggesting we bring light jackets. This saved us a lot of hassle in planning. On the day of check-in, the process was efficient and smooth. Wendy meticulously introduced the hotel room facilities and detailed the hotel's amenities. We had pre-booked the much-anticipated 'Deck Time,' and were really looking forward to it. However, we got delayed en route and realized we wouldn't make our original session. We thought our reservation would be void, and we were quite disappointed. On a whim, I contacted Wendy. She was incredibly understanding of our long-distance travel and the potential disappointment. Instead of just saying it couldn't be changed, she proactively and repeatedly contacted the 'Deck Time' staff, coordinating and communicating with various parties to help us adjust our experience slot. Finally, we successfully made it to 'Deck Time'! The view from the deck was fantastic, and the accompanying drinks and exquisite snacks were delicious. The ambiance was perfect, and the breeze was incredibly soothing. Throughout our stay, no matter how big or small our request, a quick message to Wendy on WeChat usually got a fast response, and everything was taken care of. Her service was attentive and thorough throughout, with a great sense of discretion – never intrusive, but always there when needed. The hardware of the NOAH ANNAYA HOTEL is excellent, but Wendy's thoughtful and professional butler service was truly the biggest highlight of this trip. The next time we come to Anaya, we'll choose this hotel again, and we'll definitely ask for Wendy!

The room size is quite spacious. Although the decor is a bit dated, the cleanliness is truly impeccable. Overall, the service attitude was very good. The front desk staff were very friendly. Telephone service was prompt; it's the fastest I've experienced at any hotel in terms of getting help to the room. The welcome fruit was incredibly fresh and substantial. Every piece was edible, not just good-looking but tasteless ones. What I wasn't happy with: Firstly, the doorman. We arrived around 2 PM, which I assume is peak check-in time. I only saw one attendant at the entrance. My family went to park, and I was left alone with my child, carrying a backpack, an iPad, dragging a suitcase, and a large bag of snacks. The attendant just took the luggage out of the car and left me to my own devices. It was quite chaotic. Even if he had just helped me get a luggage cart, it would have been much better. When traveling with children, you always have a lot of stuff, so this situation should be very common. I suggest increasing the number of doormen and having luggage carts readily available at the hotel entrance. Secondly, the toothbrush in the room was incredibly hard. After brushing, I was practically spitting blood. Also, the hairdryer was fixed inside a drawer with a very short cord, making it difficult to hold up. Plus, it was really hard to use. Can't they update to a better one? The cool air doesn't dry, and the hot air burns your scalp. Even with my relatively thin hair, it took ten minutes to somewhat dry, when at home it usually takes about a minute. It doesn't have to be as fancy as a Dyson, but a Xiaomi or Laifen would be an improvement. Finally, the automatic door on the first floor leading to the beach wasn't very sensitive. As I was walking out with my child, it started closing automatically before we were fully through, and my child bumped their face. Although it wasn't serious, it's still a safety hazard. I reported it to the front desk, and they were very kind and immediately asked about my child's well-being. I just hope the issue will be taken seriously.

Highly recommended for anyone looking to enjoy the autumn foliage! Front desk staff, Mali Jiao, provided excellent service. The hotel is built into the hillside, and a stunning panorama of colorful forests greets you right from your window. The autumn colors were absolutely perfect during the National Day holiday. The room had fantastic natural light and an unobstructed view. Sitting by the window in the afternoon, watching the autumn breeze rustle the leaves, was so peaceful and therapeutic. The breakfast quality was great, and the service team was professional and kind. Even with the large crowds during the National Day period, everything flowed smoothly without any delays, making for a very comfortable stay.

I have to commend the front desk staff during my stay at Arcadia Cangzhou. I drove over in the evening to check in, and my ID had a slight issue that caused a holdup. The young lady at the front desk, sweet as pie, showed absolutely no impatience. She guided me step-by-step on how to use the electronic ID, and in just a few minutes, everything was smoothly processed. She also proactively informed me about breakfast times and parking locations, and her attitude was incredibly friendly. Check-out was also very fast; the entire process was hassle-free. The service was truly top-notch. I'll definitely choose this place again next time I'm in Cangzhou.

Staying at the InterContinental Shijiazhuang Fuli for a business trip was an excellent experience overall. Shara, my butler, sent a thoughtful weather reminder in advance, which was wonderful. She even offered advice on what to wear and outdoor activity suggestions based on the temperature changes, and delivered a welcome fruit platter – truly thoughtful details. The high-floor room she carefully reserved offered outstanding views, and the indoor facilities were brand new and functioned perfectly, with high hygiene standards maintained. The service response was efficient, and the staff were patient and sincere, never intruding on my rest. This meticulous and attentive service significantly enhanced the comfort of my trip. I'll definitely choose this hotel again for my next visit.

The facilities are a bit old, and it has a Viennese style. The main pool is quite deep, but the kids' pool is suitable for children. It seems to be primarily a training facility, especially for external swimming lessons. So, after 5 PM, only one lane is available for swimming. The management is a bit lax and somewhat disorganized, but the service attitude is very good. The underground parking seems to be unusable. The breakfast isn't as diverse as those in big chain star hotels, but it really suits Chinese tastes. The roujiamo (meat burger) is quite good, and their lamb soup is excellent. Their milk tea is also nice, though the bread is just average. The rest are stir-fried dishes, and their hand-torn sausage is good, as are many of their cold dishes. They also offer black tea, which tastes pretty good. Oh, and I almost forgot the most important thing: the curtains are very thin and don't block out much light. Maybe it's a business hotel, and they want you to wake up and get to work as soon as it's light outside.

This is our go-to hotel every year. It's really easy to find, and this year we happened to check in right on my child's birthday! The hotel even gave us a birthday cake. The buffet downstairs is also very rich and varied! We'll definitely be back again next year!

Crowne Plaza CHONGLI RESORT by IHG is closer to the mountains and the Xingmang Restaurant that I always pass during my trail runs. That's why this time I chose it specifically for its location, instead of other places in Chongli. The scenery is truly beautiful! Also, this is the best hotel in Cuiyunshan, and the service is excellent. Before I even checked in, my butler Xiao Luo contacted me. During my three-day stay, Xiao Luo frequently checked in to see if I needed anything. The service was exceptional! The hotel also offers travel photography, and Juanzi, the photographer, did a fantastic job! In short, I'll definitely be coming back.
