Hotel Pemandian Air Panas di Hainan, China

Hotel was relatively clean, although we found mosquitoes on bedsheets, hotel staff explained the bugs might have flew in when door was opened. Also found bugs at the balcony. Staff was prompt when we request to change the linen. Location is further as it is a resort hotel, onsen was nice

Weather in Haikou was a little gloomy, but Erin went out of her way to make our stay pleasant and enjoyable. She was readily available on WeChat to answer my queries and gave me good recommendations on how to best spend my time in Haikou. Overall the hotel was also comfortable, and I love that there is an indoor kids playground which my daughter had so much fun in, and also that it’s close to the beach! The buffet breakfast every morning also served up a good spread, but their international dinner buffet was the best!

Overall a pleasant stay for us at this local hotel, which was one of the few that’s able to accommodate my wife and I plus our 3 children, in two connecting rooms. We stayed over 5 nights in this property. It served our purpose perfectly for a short stay at a convenient location served directly by a bus service with the airport. We arrived hours ahead due to changes in flight schedule, but the front desk was very generous and checked us in as soon as the rooms were ready, that's great customer service 👍 The rooms were large and well stocked with the necessary essentials including rubber slippers. There were 2 bathrooms+toilets as well as an additional standalone WC ~ more than enough for our use and made the stay even more pleasant. There was a large living room with an adjacent study area equipped with desk, chair and power outlets, that's shielded off the noise from living room - a great addition for those who needed space to get some work done. The hotel is located in a convenient location that's close to local food places and simple shopping. There's a supermarket in a building basement about two blocks away that's well stocked. You can even get a quick haircut for RMB15 in the same basement for those (guys) who don't care much about style 😂 There are LUCK IN coffee, Mixue, KFC, local eateries, street food, and restaurants all within short walk of about 200m. One thing great about this hotel is the bus transport serving Meilan airport that starts and ends at this property, costing just RMB20 per person per direction. Each hotel booking apparently entitled the guest one free ticket! We departed the hotel on this bus which took about 50 mins to reach the airport, as it made a few scheduled stops along the way and was driven at a slow steady bus speed. That perfectly solved the trouble and costs of having to book 2 taxis due to number of people and luggages, right at the hotel door step! One attraction of the hotel was the hot spring available in the bathroom via a large wooden tub, as well as one outside the hotel for guests. I saw some guests using the public pool which would involve walking out of the hotel in bathrobes and slippers onto the driveway and all. We’re not the hot spring type so no comments, but this feature may appeal to others. Some negative points that prevented the property having full 5 stars: - Erratic WiFi connection - the WiFi sometimes would have no Internet connection, randomly, it could be evening or even morning when everyone was sleeping and not many devices connected. As we had two rooms technically so there were two WiFi logins for our use. Sometimes one would work and not the other and at different times. Sometimes the connection would be lost halfway while using. It’s really irritating. We made multiple feedback but nothing had improved. - the property is really aged and a refresh is badly needed. It’s livable and generally clean for sure, but the decor, style and musky smell especially in the hallways, were unmistakable. According to the plague near the main entrance, the property was completed around the 2000s, that’s time for university graduation if this were a person😀

本來訂的是雙床，到店改換大床房，前台服務員很熱情的給換了。房間衞生很好很乾凈，酒店樓下有免費停車停場，夜市裡吃點小吃也方便，酒店早餐環境不錯，雖然是種類不多，但對於早餐來講足以，可惜沒拍照片，😀總體入住體驗很好，給五星好評

Hotel is more like what is considered a B&B in the west. It’s nice and right on the beach and the premium rooms have full height windows with 180 degree panoramic view of the see and sunset. However, I think price range per night per room is way overpriced for what this B&B offers. There is no gym, swimming pool, or anything really except a coffee place downstairs. I paid close to sgd 120/night and that’s 20-30% more expensive than 5 star hotels in town and obviously absolutely different service level and environment. Breakfast is very simple here and very Chinese. No fresh vegetables or protein options except eggs. Mostly noodles and fried stuff. During the day the beach is dead as it’s too hot and places are closed. In the evening the place gets alive again and there street vendors selling fresh fish and vegetables Chinese yakitori. No decent restaurants around for lunch - need to order food - you need to read and write Chinese to be able to do that cause apps only in Chinese. Over hyped place overall! Would pay maybe sgd 30/40 per night to stay here but definitely not what they charge.
