Romantic Hotels in Dalian

The overall stay exceeded our expectations! The environment was quiet and elegant, and the garden-style hot spring area was meticulously maintained. The hot spring water was natural and genuine, warm and soothing. After a soak, I felt completely relaxed, and all the fatigue from my journey vanished. The room was clean and spacious, the bedding was soft and comfortable, and the private hot spring tub offered great privacy, which my child absolutely loved. The staff were warm, polite, and provided attentive and thoughtful service. The facilities were comprehensive. This place is perfect for both family trips and relaxing getaways. It offers great value for money, and I'll definitely choose it again for my next trip. Highly recommended!

Stayed here for the Nth time. The room and courtyard are as tidy as ever, and the front desk is bustling with vibrant flowers. Traveling during off-peak season, the price is fantastic! 🌺

The Japanese-style decor shows great attention to detail. The hotel environment is clean and hygienic, and the room itself is tidy and well-kept. The bathroom has a separate wet and dry area, which is perfect for couples or families. The pillows and mattress are incredibly comfortable – I slept straight through until 7 AM! The breakfast is also quite unique; it's served individually and is very refined. Plus, there's free coffee available. The staff are very welcoming, and the 'little housekeeper' (concierge/manager) was incredibly helpful and answered all our questions thoroughly. I'm very satisfied!

The hotel's exterior is magnificent, like a castle. I booked a sea view room, and the ocean view from the window was beautiful. Even though it's by the sea, the room was surprisingly dry; my swimsuit dried completely within a day. I was a bit anxious after reading reviews about long queues for breakfast, but when I got there, I found that before 8 AM, there's usually no queue. Plus, staff members directly seat you and place a reserved sign, which is a nice touch. In some hotels, even if there's no queue when it's busy, not finding a seat and having to wander around with your plate is even more awkward. Now for the good parts, there are two downsides I hope the hotel can improve. First, the hotel's Chinese restaurant is really expensive, and there's a service charge, but the taste and service were truly underwhelming. I had originally planned to just eat at the hotel every day, but after one meal, I realized it didn't even meet expectations for taste or value for money – it failed on all three counts. Secondly, for a hotel at this price point, charging for a can of Coke and a bottle of juice in the mini-fridge seems unnecessary. Many five-star hotels even offer a full selection of expensive drinks for free, along with complimentary fruit and snacks, but here they charge extra, which comes across as a bit petty.

Unfortunately, this hotel turned out to be the worst of my entire two-week trip around China. The staff was friendly, but they didn't speak any English. Overall, the hotel didn't seem particularly foreign-friendly. Simple requests like a fruit bowl or an adapter to charge phone baffled them. When I checked in, I found a clump of long black hair on the bathroom floor. I had to ask them to wash the floors again. The hotel didn't offer any apologies or compliments for this situation. Breakfasts were the most disappointing part. This hotel was the only place in China where I had a bad meal😭 The noodles and even the stewed cabbage were swimming in oil, everything was overly vinegary and garlicky, and there were no fruits, vegetables, or desserts. I ate there only twice in five days, and both times I suffered from severe heartburn. The positive moments are an ideal location and comfortable beds and pillows. I slept well there, even though the room's windows overlooked the highway and not the park as stated when booking.

Honestly, the rooms themselves were really great. Both rooms had windows directly facing the sea, and each was beautifully decorated. The living room even had a ball pit and a climbing/jumping area for kids, which our child loved. There was also a circular nook where you could sit and watch projections. However, one of the rooms started to smell really bad in the early hours of the morning, like a foul odor. Opening the window didn't help at all. Regrettably, the whole guesthouse had a dilapidated feel to it. Right from the moment we got out of the car, we noticed the exterior was a bit grubby, and the front desk/lobby felt rather cheap. When we went to check out the beach from the lobby, we found the stairs and terrace looked like they hadn't been maintained in years. The terrace was very basic, with many cigarette butts overflowing in the ashtrays and not cleaned. The spiral staircase I'd seen in photos online for Instagram was also broken and dirty. The beach itself was rocky, a bit smelly, and had some trash. There was also a layer of scum on the sea, like the kind you see when blanching ribs. There were some past campers still around, but honestly, I don't understand how anyone would have the courage to go in the water. In summary, the room design and the sea view from the windows were genuinely good, but there was almost no external amenities or upkeep. It felt neglected and unmaintained, which is a real shame.

The front desk staff were very welcoming and even gave us a small gift, which we really appreciated. A big shout-out to the hotel's front desk! The room attendant was also incredibly friendly and did an excellent job cleaning; the room was spotless and very tidy, and she even helped organize our clothes. The food was good, and the hotel offers great value for money. I'll definitely consider staying here again next time.

Got woken up at 8 AM to move my car. Just as I'd drifted back to sleep, a staff member walked right into my room without knocking. The management here is seriously lacking. As for cleanliness, it's just okay, nothing special, which is understandable for a hotel built in 2018; the facilities are pretty standard. Also, their automatic curtains seem to have a mind of their own – they opened by themselves when I went out to move the car. My family got woken up by that too. We only ended up here because another hotel our friends were staying at was fully booked. Our friends' room was half the price of ours and had full smart home features. My room was spacious, but the TV was tiny, and the remote was right next to it, so no voice control. What era is this? Seriously, no comparison, no harm! Overall, my experience was very average.

Booked through Trip.com. We paid an extra 100 RMB per day, totaling 1780 RMB for a two-night, three-day stay, which included two tickets. This pricing doesn't seem logical, as our family room package didn't include tickets for the kids, so we had to buy two children's tickets separately. Discoveryland isn't great value for money; if you're afraid of heights, there's not much to do. When we checked in, we weren't told that we needed to enter the park before 8:30 PM for the evening light show. We specifically went to see it, only to be told we couldn't enter. The next day was a Monday, and there were no activities. So, when booking, try to avoid Mondays. The hotel failed to provide this information beforehand. On our second morning, the bathroom drain smelled strongly, and I'm not sure if it was because the bedroom door was closed. The hotel front desk staff were great; they were always helpful when we called. D调 Restaurant offered excellent service. They even processed the razor clams we caught during our beach activities for a fee, turning our catch into a delicious meal – a unique experience! The BBQ, however, wasn't good. The only redeemable dish was the oysters we ordered, which tasted best after adding our own garlic paste. I forgot to take a picture.

The room was quite spacious, and the surroundings were relatively quiet. The sea view room offered a beautiful vista, with trees, green spaces, yachts, buildings, and a cross-sea bridge, making it a more dynamic and interesting sea view than just the horizon. Compared to the Grand Hyatt, it offers better value for money. However, some details don't quite meet five-star standards, such as the lack of a swimming pool. On the plus side, the service attitude was excellent, and Keke from the front desk was particularly understanding and accommodating, which I greatly appreciated. If I'm ever staying near Xinghai Square again, I'd definitely choose this hotel. The sea view here is much more varied and less monotonous than a simple sea-and-sky horizon. Xinghai Park is very close by; it was fantastic to spend the morning playing on the beach there, then come back to the room for a shower, make some tea, and just relax while admiring the sea view.
