2-Star Hotels in Fuzhou

The hotel is located fairly centrally in the island of Pingtan in a small village. Its exterior is nicely decorated with lights, and if you arrive late at night like we did, you’ll thank for that, as it shines like a beacon in a otherwise not very well lit street. The service shone from the beginning. One of the staff was ready to help us with our luggage and show us in, and there was no delay with the registration of my passport (something that as any foreigner that has travelled in the Chinese Mainland will be able to tell, is not something to take for granted), and was immediately added to WeChat, where through the entire trip I was kept updated on everything relevant to us as guests, from the time breakfast was ready, to the fact that a guest with a dog was going to stay in a room next to ours (to which they offered to change if we needed in case any of us was scared or allergic to dogs). Breakfast was always kept warm for us, even when we were coming down late and were not expecting it to be there, and in general the staff’s attitude was always what you would expect in a bigger, more established (and more expensive) hotel, but with a home-stay twist. The hotel is not very close to any scenic spot or touristic destination, but they offer a service of e-bike rental that we used through the trip, and that we’d recommend to anybody is staying here as it took transportation off the list of things we had to think about, and allowed us to fully take advantage of the central location of the inn. With 2 people per bike, going very far North, or South to the city (sometimes both in one trip), we never ran too close to empty our batteries. The room was clean, big enough, and as we were staying on the last floor and our door opened to a patio, very well ventilated. The patio also proved to be a nice place to sit and chill or eat, and I was able to make work I had to finish feel less of a sore in the middle of my holidays. The only things I’d add or change to the room experience are a place to hang clothes (there wasn’t any closet or the sort), the toilet paper (they offered tissues but they don’t feel the same when you want to, you know, keep your hands clean), and real towels (they offer disposable towels, but they’re just not the same). In conclusion, not only I would come back but I most certainly will, as I had an amazing trip and this inn played no small part in it. Would 100% recommend if you like less noisy, more home stay-ey atmosphere, and don’t mind to be a few minutes drive from the city.

The location is excellent; it's a mixed-use commercial/residential property, with various shops and MixC shopping mall downstairs. Fuzhou University and Xichan Temple (worth visiting) are not far away. It's also not far from Sanfang Qixiang (Three Lanes and Seven Alleys). If you're walking to the hotel from the subway station, you need to cross the street in advance and walk against the flow of traffic; otherwise, you'll have to make a U-turn and take a detour. Building S10; contact the landlord in advance downstairs. There's an old refrigerator and a washing machine. The landlord is very welcoming and will help with your luggage. The loft has been divided into two sections; some have an upper floor and some a lower floor. The soundproofing is about the same as most lofts.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Bandao Resort Hotel (Longwangtou Beach Branch), and I must say, it was an unforgettable experience! From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with warm smiles and exceptional hospitality. The hotel’s location is a dream—offering a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle. The facilities are top-notch, with well-maintained, modern rooms that strike a perfect balance between comfort and luxury. The amenities are pristine and thoughtfully designed to cater to every guest’s needs. What truly stood out to me, however, was the staff’s attentiveness. I’d like to extend a special shout-out to Miumiu, who went above and beyond to make my stay remarkable. She was incredibly helpful, addressing all my questions with patience and ensuring every detail was just right. Her dedication to guest satisfaction truly sets this hotel apart. If you’re looking for a relaxing retreat or a convenient base for exploring the area, the Bandao Resort Hotel is an excellent choice. I can’t wait to return and experience this slice of paradise again!

The room was clean and the provided body wash and shampoo which was made from olive oil which I think it is a good product,and the provided free drinking water and paper cups.

Let me give an objective review. First, during the May Day holiday, a twin room for just over two hundred yuan isn't expensive, even if the location isn't very central. Given the price, you shouldn't expect too much from a guesthouse. Let's start with the positives: the guesthouse isn't too old, and the owner was decent enough, allowing us to check in an hour early. However, for the same room type and price (twin room), we were given a north-facing room. North-facing twin rooms are smaller than south-facing ones and lack good natural light. Perhaps it was because we checked in early, and the room wasn't fully ready, which I can understand. Another point is the hygiene. It felt like there was some sand on both beds, and I'm not sure if the sheets had been changed. Overall, it's a guesthouse suitable for a simple overnight stay near the airport. Don't have any other expectations or demands, as the price reflects that.

The ambiance of this guesthouse is truly wonderful. The room was spotlessly clean, and upon entering, you immediately feel comfortable and refreshed. All the amenities are incredibly well-appointed! The view from the window was also quite pleasing. The hostess was incredibly warm and welcoming. I'd definitely come back to stay here if I get the chance – it was a truly excellent experience!

The apartment is located inside a modern high rise building (with four elevators) in the middle of what appears to be a middle class neighborhood. The building is within walking distance (I estimate 10-15 minutes tops) of the Fuzhou-South railway station. However. When me and my friend arrived there we decided to take a cab due to heavy rain - and we got yelled at because the driver was unhappy about the destination being so close to the railway station We yelled back and the driver apologized. We later realized that it would have been smarter to order a DiDi as cab drivers have to wait in line long time to get a railway customer and it is understandable that they want a customer who wants to go to the city center. Still. He had no right to yell at us. This is what the minimum fee is for. Anyway. It is one of those high rise buildings that is built around a huge mall. Plenty of shops, drug stores, markets, restaurants (outside the mall) are within 5 minute radius. A mall entrance is within 3 minute walking distance. Very very convenient location. Not only so. Every day after 10:00pm there is a night market down the street where you can buy all sorts of delicious snacks even grilled oysters and steak. Me and my friend had no issue locating the apartment because upon arriving at Fuzhou-South we got in touch with the owner. The owner then befriended me on WeChat, sent us the address, pictures of the entrance, description of how to open the main apartment door and the key lockers. Piece of cake. TBH I initially did not understand how to enter the code into the electronic door lock and so the owner came to assist. She was there within minutes after we asked for help. The apartment is basically a bedroom with huge screen, beamer, queensize bed, workplace with sink, water cooker, washing machine, dining table and a nice, big fridge. Naturally you also have your own bathroom with sink, toilet and shower. Everything was very clean and me and my friend were super happy with our choice. I initially thought that the mattress was too firm but then I slept very well on it. You have to take a cab or DiDi to the city center but its not far so it is not expensive. The A/C works very well. The view from the 18th floor is amazing. Would I stay there again? Given the good location, hygiene and price I would absolutely stay there again.

I highly recommend this hidden gem of a hotel! First off, the location is incredibly convenient. It's just a few minutes' walk to the subway station, which makes getting to tourist attractions or shopping districts super easy. There are also plenty of unique local eateries nearby, perfect for a pleasant stroll and late-night snack hunting. Next, let's talk about the cleanliness – absolutely spotless, I couldn't find a single fault. The bed linens and duvet covers in the room were fresh and odorless, the floors and tabletops were dust-free, and the bathroom sink and toilet gleamed, with not even a speck of dust in the corners. You can really tell the housekeeping staff put a lot of effort into their work. But the most delightful surprise was the service; it was warm and attentive from check-in to check-out. The front desk lady processed everything efficiently and even thoughtfully recommended some nearby sightseeing routes. When I called for a hairdryer in the evening, the staff delivered it very quickly and were incredibly friendly. The value for money is absolutely amazing. The next time I visit this city, I'll definitely choose this hotel again!

Highly recommend this guesthouse suite! Beautifully decorated, incredibly comfortable, and with plenty of rooms. The rooms are clean, spacious, and fully equipped. The bed is very comfortable, and the soundproofing is decent. The location is convenient yet quiet, making for a perfect stay – a truly therapeutic experience!

Overall, it was a great experience! It’s in a lively area with shops and safe to walk even after sunset (but still at a reasonably hour). There’s a supermarket about 5 min walk and a seven-11 right next to the hotel entrance. They upgraded us because when we checked in they did not have our room ready yet. The room was spacious and had two chairs and a table as a seating area right next to the window! The bed was comfortable and everything seemed clean. They even helped us set up our wifi because we couldn’t get it to work. Our favorite place is the little bakery place outside the hotel on the corner. They have the BEST cream puffs! We got it every night. They are dense but so delicious!! Another amazing thing is that the airport shuttle is RIGHT across the street. Our flight was at 9am and the local bus doesn’t run until 6:30 and it takes an hour so it wouldve been really difficult/ expensive to get there otherwise that early. Luckily, the airport shuttle service starts at 5am! It was 31RMB per person.
