中国福建省で、プールのあるホテル

This place makes me wish there was an option for six stars. I study Asian art for a living, and I travelled to Jianyang to visit the home of Jian ware, classic tea bowls of the Song dynasty (960 to 1279 CE), distinguished by their black and brown glazes. Over the last few decades, firing Jian ware in the Song tradition has been revived in the area. I chose Nanping Colourful Village Homestay because it was in Jianyang, affordable, and accepted international guests. What I found was a luxury resort with all the warmth and personal attention of a homestay. I asked the front desk about an excavated Song kiln site in a nearby village, and the receptionist brought me the manager, who arranged for someone to take me the next day. My driver was Ms. Huang, an employee of the resort whose job involves buying and selling contemporary pieces. She knew everything about Jian ware! The kiln site isn’t run as a tourist site, so I was only able to view it because Ms. Huang arranged for it to be opened for me. I had told them I was vegetarian, so for lunch they took me to lunch at a vegetarian buffet. Then we visited the town’s Jian ware museum, where they have exhibits on the history of tea and Jian ware, historical pieces, and the work of contemporary Jianyang potters. To my delight, Mr. Gao, the potter-in-residence at the resort, uses a Song-style wood-fired dragon kiln, built right on the grounds! His pieces that range from beautiful but quite affordable to exquisite and appropriately expensive. They include both iridescent silvery oil spot and orange-to-black hare’s fur pieces. I am still thrilled that I was able to purchase wood-fired pieces on my limited budget. For dinner, the resort’s restaurant prepared vegetarian versions of Fujian cuisine for me. The food was all delicious, featuring classic Fujianese mountain ingredients like local bamboo and mushrooms. Then we visited Mr. Gao’s dragon kiln, and later his studio, where he experiments with different local clays and glaze recipes. The rich colours and iridescence of Jian ware are the result of the iron-rich local material fired at high temperature, and the results are as unpredictable as they are beautiful. The next day, they drove me to Mr. Chen’s family tea plantation in the mountains, where they grow famous northern Fujian teas. These fine teas were all wonderful, smooth and rich with a touch of smoke, and sometimes fruity in flavour. We strolled through mountainsides of tea bushes and visited groves of centuries-old tea trees. This is a perfect place for an immersive experience in China that is also very comfortable and convenient. I often find tourist experiences in China claustrophobic due to the press of people, but the resort was spacious and airy, and they took me to places where there was no one else but us and the occasional local going about their business. Everyone was very patient with my limited Chinese language skills. They were also happy to work with translator apps on our phones, so if you don’t speak any Chinese, you will be fine. This would be a great place to come as a family. There are gardens and rides for kids right next to the resort. You can learn how to whip Song-style tea and carve your name into the base of your own Jian ware cup. Not far away is a historical theme park with a collection of real architecture from the Ming (1368 to 1644 CE) and Qing (1636 to 1912 CE) dynasties. The employees wear period dress and there are performances and activities. Nearby there are hiking trails, historical sites, and lovely villages to visit. It’s also very close to Wuyi Mountain National Park, so it would be a perfect place to stay if the mountains are your destination. If you ask, they could arrange for you to visit famous sites or take you to breathtaking places that only locals know, whatever you want. They can also arrange transport to and from the train station or airport.

部屋はとても清潔で、フロントの方が部屋をアップグレードしてくれました。市街の眺めは素晴らしく、開放感があり、大きな窓が特徴です。特に夜景は息をのむほど美しいです。中山路や鎮海路に近く、観光スポットへのアクセスも抜群です。スタッフの対応も丁寧でした。ちょうど厦門の雨季と重なり、部屋の床が少し湿っていて滑りやすかったので、注意が必要でした。全体的にサービスも良く、部屋も綺麗で満足です。

福州三迪ヒルトンホテルでの滞在は、全体的に模範的な体験でした。客室のデザインは、ヒルトンならではの落ち着いた上質さを継承しており、淡いグレーのファブリックと中国風の掛け軸が、細部にまで洗練された雰囲気を醸し出しています。高層階の窓からは遮るもののない閩江の景色が広がり、雨の日のぼんやりとした水蒸気が、川の景色に独特の雰囲気を与えています。バスルームは乾湿分離が合理的に設計されており、大理石の床は高級感があり、独立したバスタブからは閩江が直接眺められ、最高の没入感を味わえました。ベッドは最高の寝心地で、期待以上の睡眠体験でした。バトラーのNickさんの対応も迅速かつ効率的で、終始スムーズで快適な滞在でした。

泉州古城観光でこのホテルを選んだのは、立地が本当に便利だからです。ホテルはグルメ街に面しており、階下には閩南地方の軽食、生姜ダック、沙茶麺など、様々な美味しいものがすぐに見つかり、食事には困りません。鐘楼、中山路の騎楼、関岳廟へは徒歩10分少々で行け、夜の古城散策もタクシーに乗る必要がなく、子供2人連れでも移動が楽でした。 私たちが宿泊したファミリールームは広々としていて、大きなスーツケース2つとベビーカーを置いても十分なスペースがありました。全体的に清潔で整頓されており、寝具の硬さもちょうど良く、夜はぐっすり眠れました。予約時に高層階で通りに面していない部屋を希望したところ、部屋はとても静かで、グルメ街の騒音もほとんど気になりませんでした。お湯も安定しており、エアコンの冷房効果も高く、快適に過ごせました。 フロントの対応は迅速で、チェックインもスムーズでした。何か要望があれば電話するとすぐに対応してくれます。ホテルにはセルフサービスのランドリールームがあり、子供連れで着替えが多い私たちには非常に便利でした。ロビーには泉州観光マップも置いてあり、観光客にとても親切です。隣接する力健スイミングプールの無料利用券も4枚いただけました。 朝食は中華ビュッフェで、種類が豊富です。麺線糊、肉まん、お粥、牛乳、豆乳などがあり、子供でも食べられるものが見つかります。しっかり食べてから観光に出かけるのにちょうど良い量でした。 タクシーでの移動も非常に便利で、どの観光地へもすぐに配車されます。古城の無料シャトルバスも近くから利用でき、西街や開元寺へ行くのにも便利でした。 全体的にコストパフォーマンスが高く、子供連れで泉州を観光するなら非常におすすめです。次回もまた利用したいと思います。

超サプライズ！チェックイン前に、ハウスキーパーのキミ・リーさんが事前にWeChatで連絡を取り、超豪華な海の見える部屋にアップグレードしてくれました。フロントデスクはフレンドリーで、部屋は清潔で無臭です。ウェルカムフルーツとチョコレートも配られました。サービスもとても良く、ルームサービスも迅速でした。朝食はとても豪華でした。先日の漳州のホテルと比べて、厦門クラウンプラザホテルは本当に素晴らしかったです。帰りのチケットが買えなかったため、当初は厦門にもう一泊するつもりでした。クラウンプラザが厦門にこれほど良い印象を残すとは思っていませんでした。唯一の欠点は島から遠いことですが、タクシーに乗るのはとても便利です

I enjoyed my stay overall. While the hotel isn’t perfect, it offers great value if you’re looking for a relaxed beach holiday away from the busy tourist areas. Location The hotel is in a peaceful area close to Huangcuo Beach and Xitouxia, with plenty of small local seafood restaurants and traditional Chinese eateries nearby. If you’re not into seafood, there are still a few other dining options within walking distance. It’s about a 30-minute walk to popular cafés like Oncebook Coffee and Snow Peak Café. Further along the beach you’ll also find beach bars such as Breeze Bar and Amoy Beach Bar, where you can enjoy drinks overlooking the ocean. Most of Xiamen’s major attractions, including Shapowei, Zhongshan Road, Gulangyu Ferry Terminal, and MIXC, are around a 20–30 minute taxi ride away, making them easy to reach. Facilities The highlight of the hotel is definitely the swimming pool. It’s clean, relaxing, and has two sun loungers, making it a nice place to unwind after a day of exploring. The hotel doesn’t offer breakfast or have its own restaurant, but there are several places nearby where you can eat. Room The rooms are spacious and nicely designed, with floor-to-ceiling windows that provide beautiful ocean views. The bed is exceptionally comfortable, with soft memory foam pillows, and the air conditioning works very well—something you’ll definitely appreciate during Xiamen’s summer. The bathroom is modern, with a large rainfall shower that has excellent water pressure. There are a few downsides, however. The room could be cleaner, and the hotel provides disposable towels instead of regular bath towels, which wasn’t my favourite. There’s also no minibar or mini fridge, which would have been a welcome addition. Service The reception staff deserve special mention. The gentleman who checked me in was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and went out of his way to make sure I was comfortable throughout my stay. His hospitality left a very positive impression. Final thoughts If you’re looking for a quiet beachside stay with comfortable rooms, beautiful ocean views, and don’t mind taking a taxi to Xiamen’s main attractions, this hotel is a solid choice. Just don’t expect luxury facilities or a full-service resort experience.

Grand Honor Hotel is definitely the best hotel in Shishi, but it’s not quite the same level as a luxury hotel in a bigger city. Generally the hotel is clean, but it’s the little things that I noticed, ie when I checked in, there were some sweet wrappers next to the bowl of sweets that weren’t cleared away. That said, the sense of space is evident in the hotel lobby, lifts, corridors and most importantly, the hotel rooms. Rooms are very spacious and well-designed, although the closet area can definitely do with brighter lights. Most amenities are provided but what put me off is that many items that would have been free in other hotels at this price-range aren’t free at Grand Honor. There is a Chinese tea set on the table and usually the loose leaf tea is provided for free but it cost ¥15 per packet. Honestly it’s not a lot of money for us, but on the flip side, surely the hotel can provide a bag of tea leaves for their guests. There are the standard free single-use packet tea in the drawer so at least there’s that. In-room slippers are not to be taken out; they’d charge you if you do - and that’s fine, but the slippers are actually really uncomfortable to wear. The small plate of fruits (banana, plum and mandarin) given at 5pm every day is a nice touch. The hotel breakfast is probably the highlight. Set on the 22nd floor with panoramic views of the city, breakfast is very enjoyable. The food quality is pretty good, but a real surprise here is the sheer diversity of food. The bread selection alone has 5-6 choices (pastries, brioche, baguette, square toast, etc), the cooked food section is almost endless (and there’s cooked Chinese vegetables! 👏🏾) and then there’s the fruit selection at the end too. My only gripe is that the coffee machine is a bit slow, and there’s only one machine so there can be a wait for coffee. Location of the hotel is a little odd; good restaurants and the main mall is about 15 mins’ walk away. There aren’t many good shops to wander around nearby. Generally, this is a solid hotel for this price point. Excellent service with very fast food delivery (using the ubiquitous delivery robots) and friendly front desk staff.

ホテルには温泉があり、私は温泉付きのプライベートコートヤードに宿泊しましたが、事前予約が必要で、運試しをするしかありませんでした！シャトルバスの運転手さんは素晴らしく、特に李さんという若い女性は目の下にほくろがあり、とても可愛かったです。彼女は親切に私に一人旅の注意を促し、心からの祝福をくれ、荷物の運搬も手伝ってくれました。レビューを書いてからしばらく経ちましたが、福州という街、そして様々な出会い、そして呉世将軍のような革命の殉教者たちが私たちに美しく平和で穏やかな生活を与えてくれたことに、今でも心から感謝しています。運転手と荷物のサービスを提供してくださった李さんに感謝します。福州の今後の発展、ホテルの繁栄、そして李さんをはじめとするスタッフの皆様とそのご家族の健康と幸福、そして豊かな新年をお祈りします！

宿泊体験は期待以上でした！客室は洗練された内装で、設備も充実。温水洗浄便座やBluetoothスピーカーなど、細部までこだわりが感じられました。スタッフの方々はプロフェッショナルかつきめ細やかな心遣いで、チェックアウト時にはお土産までいただきました。ホテル周辺の観光スポットも近く、徒歩圏内で大変便利でした。友人にも自信を持っておすすめしたいです！

厦門に泊まるなら、観光スポットへのアクセスを考えると島内の方が便利ですが、迷った末に海滄華邑を選びました。 ホテルは壮麗で豪華な典型的な5つ星の内装で、オーシャンビューの部屋からは思明島や鼓浪嶼が見えて、とても素晴らしいです。 ホテルの朝食は美味しく、特に沙茶麺が絶品でした。 プールも素晴らしく、特に子供用の温泉プールは良かったです。 コンシェルジュサービスも手厚く、たくさんの荷物や出前を注文しました。ハウスキーパーのZoeyさんもきめ細やかなサービスで、早めに到着した私たちをできるだけ早くチェックインさせてくれました。 唯一残念なのは、高級ホテル特有の「隔絶された感」があり、周辺に散策できるような小道がないことです。ただ、子連れだったので、夜には子供も疲れてしまい、プールだけでも十分楽しめたので、子供たちは大満足でした。
