Guest UserThere was no one at the front desk when I arrived in the evening; I had to call them to check me in, which wasn't a great experience overall. The room was okay, except for the bathroom door, which was a bit odd – completely transparent and took up a lot of space when closing; the design was unreasonable. They provided fruit in the room.
The breakfast environment was poor; it was shared with a seafood restaurant, very noisy. People were eating breakfast here while seafood was being delivered there. Breakfast consisted of home-style dishes, and the taste was acceptable. Don't choose this hotel if you don't have a car; it's inconvenient. The sea view from the first-floor terrace was indeed beautiful.

YigedayudeI’ve lost count of how many times I've visited Dalian, but this is my first time in the Development Zone, and it might just become my favorite spot in Dalian. It has mountains and sea, great food and entertainment. It’s been years since I’ve seen a place so vibrant and full of energy.
I'd give the hotel a 90/100. Perhaps the Marriott Fairfield Inn's customer profiling perfectly matched my needs – everything I needed was there, and none of the unnecessary frills. The room wasn't huge, but perfectly adequate. The TV supports screen mirroring, there's a computer and printer on the first floor, and breakfast was simple but complete – the eggs were so fresh they didn't even have an air cell (every day!). The laundry room was handy, and the gym was well-maintained. Initially, I worried about noise from the light rail downstairs, but it wasn't an issue at all. The soundproofing is even better than some similarly priced hotels; in two days, I only heard muffled voices from next door once. Compared to certain other brands (*cough* MoDu, Ji hotels *cough*), it's like they're practically whispering in your ear.
There are tons of great restaurants near the hotel, and it's super convenient to get to the beach and Daheishan. I'm pretty sure I'll be staying here again on my next visit.
Minor drawbacks:
1. I smelled cigarette smoke in the hallway a few times. If guests are allowed to smoke in their rooms, perhaps the public areas need more prompt smoke removal.
2. The gym equipment could use a wider variety of handle types.
3. Could the soy milk please be sugar-free by default?

Guest UserFantastic! A two-bedroom apartment that both the elderly, kids, and my family absolutely loved! They thoughtfully upgraded us to a sea-view room. Downstairs, you can see the Venetian Water Town at night, and it's really quiet, with no mosquitoes. The bedding and air conditioning were all comfortable! A washing machine, sofa, and fridge were all included. We stayed for three days straight, and when we moved to another place afterward, there was a noticeable drop in quality – we really should have just stayed here the whole time! Highly recommend for families with children or elderly members!

Datablau LuluThe best hotel of our trip, absolutely loved it! The design is just incredible.
**Location:** Since I was traveling with my 12-year-old, convenience to attractions was a key factor. I hadn't really researched it when booking, but after staying, I found it super convenient for getting to the nearby Forest Zoo (I'll write a separate guide for that later), Lotus Mountain, Haida Tunnel, Cross-sea Bridge, and Xinghai Square.
**Environment:** Built on Lotus Mountain with unique architecture, so the views and scenery are unparalleled.
**Facilities:** The room and amenities were all very complete. The only downside was that there was an event in the sky garden one night, so we couldn't enjoy the night view, but otherwise everything was great.
**Pool:** I went for a swim every day. It was great for exercise and I could also use the steam room, which was very relaxing.
**Gym:** Lots of equipment, but not many people actually working out – more guests were there for a holiday.
**Shuttle service from the foot of the mountain:** Very convenient! Although the journey isn't far, it saved a lot of time and effort. There were always hotel guests waiting there.
**Hotel photoshoot (3 retouched digital photos, requires 24-hour advance booking):** We did this on our last morning, and it was incredibly efficient! Started shooting at 9 AM, finished by 9:20 AM (we couldn't shoot outdoors due to the weather). We then waited 5-10 minutes to choose the photos. Every shot was beautiful, and I reluctantly paid extra for 10 more.
**Breakfast:** Very extensive, and the specialty sea buns and 'dirty' buns were absolutely delicious!
**To sum it up:** You get what you pay for!

Anonymous UserIt was a perfect trip. I wanted to go to Lushun to go shopping. I took the light rail terminal to see the sea. It was very close to the World Peace Park. Although it was late, the park was still lively. The sea was clear and there was no smell of the sea. The store upgraded the room type and turned on the air conditioner in advance. Let the fatigue of the journey sweep away in the cool. In the morning, I looked at Fang Fei on the edge of the villa, the large bathtub floor-to-ceiling windows, and the sea view smelled the flowers. The room is so big, especially when sitting down at the side table on the first floor, I feel like singing a song ”Night on the Outskirts of Moscow”. The flowers in front of the door bloom like a brocade, the green apple exhibition is like a green jade, and the home is very delicious with a single mountain and water.

The trip turned out to be an unexpected delight! The photography opportunities were fantastic; the overall color scheme and aesthetic were incredibly photogenic. Our room featured panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows with a direct sea view – waking up to that was absolutely wonderful! Due to a wedding banquet, dining in the main restaurant wasn't possible, but they thoughtfully delivered lunch to our room. The overall environment was spotless, though with a predominantly white decor, a bit of dust was perhaps more noticeable than ideal. However, the incredible atmosphere and relaxed vibe here more than made up for this minor point! I'll definitely be back!

This hotel is quite nice. It's close to Xinghai Park and other attractions, and there are subway and bus stops nearby. The food is also pretty good. Importantly, they provide disposable towels and bath towels, which is a nice touch. The mattresses are comfortable, with just the right firmness, and the facilities are very convenient. There's a washing machine in the room, and they'll promptly deliver laundry detergent if you run out. There's a Lawson convenience store and a Luckin Coffee shop in the lobby. Overall, it's a great hotel.

Guest UserFive-star recommendation! Our family stay at the Four Seasons Whale Island exceeded expectations; it's absolutely perfect for a family beach vacation.
The hotel boasts an excellent location with its own private beach. You don't have to go far to let the kids dig in the sand and explore the shore, and if you're lucky, you might even spot some starfish. The little ones had an absolute blast. Amber Bay, with its larger expanse of sea perfect for wading and shell collecting, is just a short walk away, offering plenty of opportunities for beachcombing. The surrounding amenities are also top-notch, with authentic seafood restaurants serving delicious meals and trendy, Instagrammable cafes that are perfect for snapping great photos and relaxing.
The rooms are very comfortable. Each is equipped with an extra-large bathtub, which is wonderfully relaxing after a day of playing by the sea. Just a friendly reminder: remember to close your doors and windows, as small insects can occasionally fly in.
Overall, our stay was fantastic, though I have two small suggestions for improvement: Firstly, a mini-fridge in the room would be incredibly convenient, especially in summer for storing cold drinks, baby food, and fresh ingredients. Secondly, I hope the bedding maintenance can be enhanced in the future; some sheets and duvets weren't as pristine as they could be. Regular replacement and updates would further elevate the quality.
All in all, this is a highly recommended resort in the Dalian Shicao area that we'd gladly return to. It's a top choice for family trips, and I recommend it to families looking for a peaceful seaside escape and easy beach exploration!

The hotel on the golf course feels that it is mainly prepared for guests who come to play golf overnight. It is written as a five-star, but the facilities are actually a bit old. Facing the side of the course, the view is invincible, it is worth a trip for one night alone. The price is also very reasonable. The manager is very enthusiastic. Breakfast is a set meal, relatively simple and tastes good. The room is large, with a balcony and a bathtub. There is free bottled water, because it is a small bottle, so four bottles were given. Later, two bottles were sent. Insufficient: 1. The hot water flow in the shower is too small and the water temperature is low. The traffic below is a bit noisy in the morning.
