A must-stay hotel when visiting Xiamen!!!

/The Waldorf Astoria Xiamen is a luxury hotel with outstanding quality and excellent experience. Compared to the Conrad Xiamen of the same grade, each has its own characteristics. Here is a detailed introduction:

🏘️Room Types/Layout:
The hotel is located in the old city area. Although the room views are mainly cityscapes, the overall layout is reasonable and the environment is exquisite. In contrast, Conrad Xiamen offers stunning sea views and is close to attractions. If you prioritize sea views, you may consider choosing it.

🛌Amenities/Facilities:
The hotel’s facilities are exquisite and well-equipped, featuring smart toilets and Aesop toiletries of high quality. The gym and swimming pool are large and beautifully designed, providing an excellent experience far beyond the usual Hilton standard. The minibar offers snacks, soft drinks, Tsingtao beer, etc. Although not very abundant, it includes specialty snacks like tiger skin peanuts and seaweed, which can satisfy some guests’ needs. However, no welcome fruit was provided upon check-in, which is a slight regret.

💗Other Tips:

- Service: Attentive and thoughtful service. For guests traveling with elderly family members, the hotel proactively provides shower chairs and anti-slip slippers, showing great attention to detail.
- Dining: Breakfast is served in a half a la carte, half buffet style, with high-quality dishes. Waffles, soft scrambled eggs, beef pho, and other dishes taste great. There are also vegetable noodles with pickles and tea eggs suitable for the elderly. The buffet area’s cheese bread (containing red velvet cake) and mango bread desserts are very popular. Notably, the hotel offers breakfast at a Michelin one-star restaurant, with outstanding dining standards superior to the usual level at Conrad.
- Comparison and Choice: Compared to Conrad, Waldorf Astoria excels in hardware quality, dining level, and facility experience; Conrad’s advantage lies in its prime sea view and proximity to attractions. If you seek overall quality, Waldorf Astoria is the better choice; if you prefer sea views, consider Conrad.

Summary: Waldorf Astoria Xiamen offers a top-notch stay experience with exquisite facilities, high-quality service, excellent dining, and reasonable prices. It is especially suitable for guests who value quality and details. Even without sea views, you can feel the charm of a luxury hotel. It is one of the top accommodation choices in Xiamen.
