Shantou Hotels with Breakfast

I specifically chose this hotel as it's newly opened this year. The room amenities and facilities are very new, clean, and hygienic. The location is excellent, right at the intersection of Zhujiang Road, making it very convenient for dining out. The lobby is on the second floor; just take the elevator up. Upon check-in, you receive Americano coffee vouchers, which can be upgraded to other drinks for an additional charge. The coffee is freshly ground and extracted using a semi-automatic coffee machine. Although the beans are quite ordinary, it's decent enough for a latte. I also saw fitness equipment and a laundry room, but we didn't get to use them.

We chose this hotel primarily for its proximity to the Shantou railway station. The night prior, we stayed at a nearby Hampton but had a disappointing experience, so this was our first stay with a local Chinese chain brand. Check-in was smooth and efficient, although no English was spoken at the front desk. We had requested a higher-floor, quieter room via WeChat in advance and were initially assigned Room 602. Upon entering, the room appeared clean and well-maintained. However, we encountered an unusual and inconvenient issue with the Wi-Fi. Guests are instructed to turn on the TV to access the Wi-Fi password, but we discovered that the TV must remain on in order for the Wi-Fi to function. This was confirmed by multiple staff members, including what appeared to be a front desk supervisor. This setup was quite disruptive, as the TV screen is bright and cannot be dimmed, and the work desk is positioned directly in front of it. To their credit, Ms. Lin—responded promptly and offered to move us to another room (also 602, but with a different layout). The new layout was more practical, with the desk positioned at a 90-degree angle from the TV, which helped mitigate the issue somewhat. That said, the second room had its own drawback: there was a noticeable gap in the window, which allowed in road noise. Since we stayed over the weekend, traffic noise and honking were quite noticeable at night. In addition, we heard neighbors chatting and laughing past midnight. Lotion could be a nice addition too. A small humidifier with scented oil definitely gave a zen touch. Aside from these two issues (Wi-Fi dependency on the TV and sound insulation), the overall stay was comfortable. As a gesture of goodwill, the hotel provided complimentary breakfast. While we are not typically breakfast eaters, we did try the noodle station. The offerings were entirely Chinese-style. One suggestion would be to label the protein options more clearly (in Chinese or English), as we observed multiple guests asking staff about them—one of which turned out to be pig’s heart. Overall, this was a good introduction to a Chinese domestic hotel brand. I learned that they got a few locations in Europe. While there are areas for improvement, particularly in technology setup and soundproofing, the service recovery effort and general room quality made for a satisfactory stay.

This Mid-Autumn Festival, I stayed in a Deep Sleep room at Atour Seeya Hotel in Shantou, and the experience far exceeded my expectations! The location is superb, right next to the MixC shopping mall. It's very convenient to get to Xiaogongyuan and Nan'ao Island, and taking a stroll in the evening was particularly pleasant. I booked a Deep Sleep room, and the mattress was just right in terms of firmness. There were memory foam and down pillows to choose from. Combined with blackout curtains and a quiet air conditioner, I slept soundly until morning. The room's soundproofing was excellent; I couldn't hear any noise from the hallway or the street. The bedside also offered a small aromatherapy diffuser, a steam eye mask, and a calming herbal tea, all with soothing scents. Overall, the value for money is great. I will definitely choose this place again next time I'm in Shantou, especially recommending it to those who are light sleepers.

Traveling to Chaoshan with kids, choosing the Ultraman-themed family room at the Sheraton Shantou Longguang was definitely a highlight of our trip! The room was filled with Ultraman elements: themed bedding, wall murals, and a small tent. My child shrieked with excitement as soon as we entered and spent ages playing 'monster hunting' in the room, saving us a lot of energy entertaining them. It's a family room with a king-sized bed plus a bunk bed for kids, offering spacious accommodation for a family of four without feeling cramped. Kids' toiletries and small slippers were provided, showing great attention to detail. The hotel maintained excellent cleanliness and the facilities were well-kept. The location is a huge plus, right next to MixC shopping mall in the city center, making it convenient for finding food and strolling in small parks. The service was very attentive; check-in at the front desk was smooth, and requests were handled promptly. The breakfast selection was rich, including authentic Chaoshan rice noodles, catering to both adults and children. Highly recommended for families with Ultraman-obsessed kids, a top choice for family accommodation in Shantou! 👍

Exceeded expectations in every way! I was a bit worried at first since it was our first time staying in a local hotel in China instead of a big chain hotel, but it turned out to be surprisingly good. We were warmly greeted by the staff, who explained everything we needed to know, and they were very considerate and helpful throughout our stay. The service was professional, and the cleanliness of the place was excellent. If you’re looking for a place within walking distance of the old town cultural area, this is absolutely the place for you!

The hotel is newly opened and has a great overall ambiance. The hygiene conditions are excellent, and the room details are well thought out, including a mini-fridge and tea-making facilities. The bathroom is a highlight with its high-tech toilet and excellent toiletries, and the water pressure for showering is fantastic and very comfortable! The front desk staff are enthusiastic, always ready to answer questions, and genuinely think of the guests' needs! There's free coffee and tea on the first floor of the hotel, which are quite good! The rice noodle roll place next to the hotel is also good, and it's not far from Zhujiang Food Street, which is very convenient!

Honestly, the service was pretty mediocre, especially the laundry room attendant. She was incredibly chatty and constantly interfered with guests' personal matters. She told us not to dry our clothes for too long because they'd get damaged, then returned them before they were even dry – it was really baffling. Everything else was just okay.

My kids love the room and it becomes one of the great memories in shantou! The host is responsive and responsible and very helpful. It's very good experience staying there and enjoy the great services.

No regrets paying more for this beautiful homestay! 花多点钱住这里一点遗憾也没有！ My parents, sibling and I stayed for a total of 3 nights in their 4 pax room. It’s a beautiful and tastefully decorated accommodation with personal courtyard and interior. Bed and duvet were so comfortable especially in the chilly weather of 18 ~ 22 degrees. I didn’t spot anything obvious I can complain about regarding the cleanliness of this place, hence 5/5 for cleanliness. Location is perfect (5/5). Next to streets of food places that have good ratings, and super near 万象城 shopping mall (restaurants, luxury shops, retail and more). Anyways cabbing around Shantou is really convenient, fast, and affordable. Even though it is nested amongst other tall residential area, once we close the door we couldn’t hear much noise from outside. Service is 5/5 as well. There’s free pickup and drop off serviced from the railway station. There’s daily fresh fruits delivered to us, as well as chicken soup. There’s also free laundry service which we really appreciate! Staffs were always ready to help and always ready to give recommendations. We really felt their hospitality and they are genuine in providing best service possible. Amenities is 5/5 as well. The hair dryer is Laifen brand which is so strong and sleek looking. They provide disposable towels on top of those reusable towels. Their slippers are fluffy and comfy. They have like everything we need. Bonus: Their residential cat and her kittens are adorable!!! All in all wonderful stay and would stay again if i ever visit Shantou again. Suggestions for improvement: (1) more variety in breakfast options (stayed for 3 nights and felt that some breakfast options would be great), and (2) the shower gel, shampoo, and conditioner are a little too hard to pour out maybe can consider using press bottles.

The room was incredibly clean and stylishly decorated. The service was so warm and welcoming, and they even arranged a special Shantou pastry-making experience for us. The breakfast spread was excellent, and being right next to a food street made dining super convenient. Since we had online classes, the hotel was incredibly understanding and extended our check-out time, which was really thoughtful. Next time I'm in Shantou, I'm definitely choosing this hotel again!
