Niaodao seascape chaosu

Clean and hygienic, and the sea view family room had a fantastic view! It's also very close to Zhongshan Road and the Eight Markets, very satisfied!

The location is very close to Zhongshan Road, but the room hygiene was quite poor. There was a lot of dust on the headboard, and the bathtub was just for show as there was no hot water. My child wanted to take a bath, but the water was too cold, so we couldn't use it!

The hotel's location is super convenient, right at the entrance of Zhongshan Road Pedestrian Street, just a few minutes from the Eight Market. The ferry terminal is directly across the street, offering stunning views of Gulangyu Island. Our room faced the sea and had a floor-to-ceiling window as wide as the room itself, so we could lie in bed and watch the ocean and Gulangyu. The room was incredibly quiet with excellent soundproofing; we couldn't hear anything from next door, let alone downstairs! The entire room was smart-enabled, and it had two large beds with incredibly comfortable mattresses and pillows – we slept as well as we do at home. I even peeked under the pillowcase and discovered they were deep-sleep memory foam pillows!

Extremely satisfied with our stay! My sons and I booked two rooms, which were spacious, comfortable, and clean. The staff were very friendly and helpful, and the security was excellent.

The room design is quite unique and great for kids. Apparently, Huang Bo (a famous actor) stays here sometimes, and there's even a stool with his name written on the back. The location is convenient with beautiful views. I originally chose this guesthouse because it was the closest one to the Lujiang Hotel next door, where I was planning to move later, and I wanted to experience Xiamen's charm. To my surprise, it was pretty good – more like a hotel-style guesthouse with complete facilities. The front desk was also responsive to any service requests. However, since it's a guesthouse within an apartment building, elevator wait times can be long during peak hours. The building's elevators and ground floor also had a noticeable smoky smell, which was unpleasant. The guesthouse itself is fine; smoking guests have a designated smoking area (I'm sensitive to smoke and don't like it). The toilet flush is a bit weak, and you need to be careful about hair going down the shower drain – the staff even warned that it could clog if you lose a lot of hair, though I didn't personally encounter that issue.

I actually booked Niaodao Seaview Chaosu by accident, as my wife has had bad experiences with many seemingly beautiful guesthouses from photos. However, after staying in a suite at Niaodao for three nights, my wife was satisfied, and with her happy, I was naturally at ease 😄. To be fair, the service attitude was top-notch, and the hygiene was excellent. We had unlimited complimentary mineral water daily. The lobby (on the 7th floor) has a dedicated smoking room with good ventilation. Gulangyu Island is right across from us, offering a fantastic first-person view from the window. It was especially charming and unique during the stormy weather we experienced 🤫. If guests are returning from Gulangyu Island after 6 PM, they can take the Xiamen Ferry, which is directly opposite the hotel, just through an underpass. (Note: In the morning, ferries to Gulangyu only depart from Dongdu). Right outside Niaodao's entrance is the start of Zhongshan Road Pedestrian Street. You absolutely cannot say the location isn't good, can you? The 24th floor of this building houses the tallest Pizza Hut in China 😄. On the first floor, there's a 24-hour supermarket. To the left of the hotel entrance, there's a Commue Western restaurant and bar. If you don't feel like wandering around at night, you can just grab a cocktail here. There's also a Starbucks, and across the street is Heping Wharf, where you can take various Lujiang River cruises and night tours. There's also a travel agency on the first floor where you can inquire about tours to nearby attractions like the Tulou. The double-decker tourist bus stop is also right outside. A taxi to Dongdu Wharf takes 15 minutes. A taxi to the cable car takes 15 minutes. A taxi to the airport takes 30 minutes. Didn't run into Huang Bo, nor the beautiful proprietress. They are cousins.

Everything was great, a really good travel experience! It was budget-friendly, conveniently located, and the service was excellent. This is definitely a fantastic guesthouse brand, and I'll definitely choose them again for my next trip.

The sea view room offers an excellent view with a large floor-to-ceiling window overlooking Gulangyu Island. The location is great, very close to Zhongshan Road. The decor is nice, the service is warm, and it's a comfortable stay.

This hotel truly exceeded my expectations! Upon arrival, I was upgraded to a room facing Gulangyu Island, offering a fantastic view. The room was spacious, bright, and fully equipped with everything I needed. The location is also excellent, right downstairs from Zhongshan Road Pedestrian Street, making it very convenient for getting around.
