Shenzhen Convention & Exhibition Center Shenzhen|1.12km from city centre
I know this hotel is undergoing renovations, and some packages for the new room types even include lounge access and five meals a day, which offers excellent value for money!
First, regarding the room, the newly renovated style is minimalist and refined. The room feels very spacious and has excellent natural light. The bathroom amenities include Diptyque shampoo, shower gel, and lotion, which was a very pleasant touch.
Next, concerning the dining, the five meals included afternoon tea, happy hour, evening dessert and drinks after check-in, and breakfast and lunch on the second day. The afternoon tea was a pleasant surprise. Although the food selection for happy hour wasn't extensive, it focused on quality over quantity. I didn't get to enjoy the late-night dessert session, but I learned that it was a chocolate-themed dessert night, and the themes are updated regularly. It's worth noting that no matter when you dine, you can enjoy unlimited alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages.
Finally, I'd like to commend the hotel's service. All the staff I encountered during this stay were extremely polite and friendly. Especially Miss Sahar at the front desk, the check-in process was very smooth and efficient, and she even followed up afterward to see if I needed any assistance. A male staff member in the lounge also provided very professional service, always greeting us with a warm smile every time we entered the lounge for a meal.
Overall, my experience during this stay was excellent, and I look forward to visiting again after the full renovation!FromDKK 2,512

To sum up, I stayed for one night and it was a pleasant experience. The staff kindly arranged a room for me on the 10th floor, and I had a great night's sleep. First of all, the most important thing about this hotel is its super convenient location—you can take the subway and access the lobby directly. Secondly, the rooms are spacious, and there is plenty of food options in the surrounding area.

Shenzhen Convention & Exhibition Center Shenzhen|1.09km from city centre
Having stayed at a few Four Seasons hotels, this one in Shenzhen didn't quite meet the brand standards I've come to expect. It's definitely an older hotel; nearly all the countertops and table edges in the room were uneven. The only place to find tissue paper in the entire room was by the sink, and the mirror was quite oxidized and blackened. There were no welcome fruits either. These aren't huge issues, but the main problem was cleanliness. On the cabinet wall next to the hangers, there was a large area of a sticky substance, like unremoved glue. Inside the wardrobe, you could feel a noticeable grittiness, like un-wiped dust, which made me hesitant to hang my intimate apparel. The spout of the kettle for boiling water was already green... These kinds of issues just shouldn't be present in a Four Seasons hotel. On the positive side, the front desk service was very warm and friendly, and the buffet environment was excellent. I hope the hotel considers a renovation.FromDKK 7,844

The bedding was comfortable, and the shower was spacious with fantastic water pressure. The breakfast was good. There is a shuttle service to and from the nearby beach, which was uncrowded. The hotel is close to the Dameisha scenic area. They have delivery robots, as well as indoor and outdoor swimming pools that the kids loved, though the water temperature in the pools was a bit low.

My friend and I visited Shenzhen together and decided on this Hilton. We arrived quite late, but the Guest Relations team thoughtfully helped us arrange a late check-out. Room service requests were handled promptly, and the friendly staff would proactively point us toward the elevators whenever they saw us. The room was meticulously cleaned; the area around the toilet and the shower stall were spotless with no water stains. The sofa looked quite new, and it was very comfortable to sit and rest on. The hotel's location is genuinely convenient for getting around—Gangxia North metro station is right next to it, with multiple lines making transfers direct and hassle-free. Heading out for late-night bites over the past few nights was super easy to and from the hotel. The soundproofing in the room is decent and it was quiet most of the time, though we could faintly hear people talking loudly next door. Overall, the facilities are on point, meeting all the standards you'd expect from a five-star hotel. My friends all agreed we made the right choice this time.FromDKK 867

The Langham, Shenzhen 🏨
Location: Great, just a straight walk from Chegongmiao Metro Station.
Service: The doormen are very sharp and attentive. As soon as guests get out of the car, they rush over to greet them and take the luggage. We booked an executive room and arrived right in the afternoon, so we went straight to the Langham Club for afternoon tea and checked in smoothly at the same time.
Room: We requested a fireplace room. It was quite spacious and lovely. I am totally in love with the bathtub! The huge square bathtub is much more comfortable for soaking than an oval one—big enough for two people. Although the hotel has some years on it, the room layout and flow are very functional and comfortable.
Minibar: Very unique and impressive-looking, but chargeable 😂.
Dining: The Executive Lounge is not recommended. The desserts are pretty much nothing to write home about; limited selection, mediocre taste, and I just couldn't get into the scones. During Happy Hour, I rage-ate two bowls of beef brisket rice, but nothing else was really worth eating. Breakfast can be taken either at the Langham Club or the main restaurant. It's best to go to the restaurant first for the Lanzhou beef noodles—you definitely have to try this as it's truly delicious, paired with a dragon fruit smoothie. After that, you can head over to the Langham Club for some croissants and waffles.
In-room Dining: Highly recommend the hot chocolate!! I had one in the morning, one while soaking in the tub, and one before bed. So cozy and relaxing!
Pool: The outdoor pool is gorgeous! Enjoyed it so much in the morning. I also checked out the indoor pool, which is also nice and 1.5 meters deep.
The downsides: No welcome fruit provided, and when I asked for it, I still didn't get any 😂. Also, the hotel overall is on the lower floors, so the window view isn't that great, and the lounge desserts are subpar. All in all, though, I still highly recommend it and had a very pleasant stay.FromDKK 1,034

The most striking thing about this stay is how comforting it is when a hotel truly nails the fundamentals.
Upon opening the door, there was zero weird smell; the bedding was crisp and clean, and even the corners were spotless. It was obvious that the cleaning was done with genuine care, not just as a formality. Tricky areas like water stains in the bathroom, the mirror, and the floor drain were all impeccably clean, making it a very reassuring place to stay.
The location is a major plus too. You can grab food right outside, transportation is convenient, and getting to the places you want to visit is hassle-free. Returning to the room quickly after a tiring day out—that kind of effortless convenience is so important for a trip.
The service hits just the right note: there's someone there when you need them, without being overly enthusiastic to the point of awkwardness. Check-in at the front desk was efficient, all questions were answered promptly, and you could feel well-cared-for in all the little details.FromDKK 1,468

I was inspired to visit Hyatt Regency Shenzhen Yantian after seeing a blogger's video of the sunrise there.

Room and Comfort:
The room was extremely comfortable and kept super clean. We booked the room with two 1.4-meter large beds, which was just perfect for a family traveling with two grandchildren! Plus, we could enjoy a beautiful ocean view right from our room.
Garden and Indoor Zoo:
The hotel gardens are gorgeous. There is also an indoor children's petting zoo, which the kids absolutely loved! They got to see and pet alpacas, various bunnies, and little hamsters up close. In addition, there is a pony (Shetland pony) and some more exotic creatures (like millipedes with a unique look and snakes), all safely kept in enclosures. It's fantastic for young children.
Beach and Sea Views:
The hotel beach is stunning! There is a designated safe swimming area in the sea. The sand on the white sand beach is very fine and soft. The October weather was exceptional, and the water was warm and crystal clear. Best of all, there are no high-rise buildings on the horizon blocking the view, offering a wonderfully unobstructed vista.
