Hotel dengan Bar di Dandong

This was an amazing stay. While it wasn't directly on the river, my room had an eventful river view and it was about an 8ish minute walk to the river and Yalu Bridge. This hotel is connected to a mall with some pastry shops, noodles, a pizza restaurant and a starbucks so in the dead of winter (we came in Feb) it was convenient. A huge perk is the fact that it was a stones throw from the rail station, about 5 minutes walking. Thank you to 王君瑶 Coco Wang for helping make our stay special. I highly recommend this hotel.

The location is great and the price was reasonable for a 5 star hotel. However, there were some things that seemed lacking of a 5 star hotel. The CONS - Rooms come with heavy smoke smell and ashtray even if asking for non smoking, and it was open smoking in the lobby and even elevators. I would have loved a bathtub instead of only a shower. The breakfast was very good for the price (48 rmb) but didn't include juices and their attempt at adding bacon was horrific as it was a fake street sausage type of bacon that's bright red and inedible. There was brand-name water bottles and then there was the hotel water bottles in the room and there was a menu charging 2 rmb to heat up water. I am not sure how they would know or if this is to charge for the people who steal the tea and coffee. But I would expect to boil water for free. Also the gym closed at 19:00 and it seemed a bit early. The PROS - The beds were comfortable. The staff did their best to accommodate and even allowed picking up luggage later. The coffee shop inside had great coffee if you dont mind the smoke. The breakfast was a great value for 48 rmb. The location was great and convenient. The hotel was able to check us in to the room early with availability. The hot spring SPA was amazing as well since there was no pool but you need to be careful not to let them give you extra services (which are sub par) and just enjoy the hot water and sauna for free when you buy something.

The advantages and disadvantages of the hotel are obvious. The advantage is the superior geographical location, facing the Broken Bridge of the Yalu River, and it is not far to walk to the two cruise ship docks. The parking lot is large and has sufficient parking spaces, but the hotel accepts external vehicles, which makes the privacy of the guests staying in the hotel much worse. During the day, the car will most likely be parked far away from the back entrance of the hotel. The disadvantages are old facilities and old decoration style. If you ignore the advantages of the geographical location, the decoration and facilities are not as good as those of the Four Seasons Hotel. The breakfast is just edible, and the staff service is the most unsatisfactory. If the old hardware such as facilities is a problem that cannot be solved in the short term, then the soft conditions such as service attitude should be solved immediately. I hope the hotel can provide corresponding services according to the corresponding star rating.
