Right now! My love for Shenzhen hotels is skyrocketing!!!

College student checking in 100 hotels 37/100🏨 The St. Regis Shenzhen Qianhai OCT, beauty beyond imagination! The hotel's upgrade policy is exceptionally generous. After pre-booking a St. Regis Suite, I was delightfully upgraded to the Caroline Astor Suite on my birthday, complete with festive decorations. The welcome amenities were lavish—including breakfast, lounge drink vouchers, and a special first-round complimentary minibar for my birthday. The room featured a tempting spread of premium welcome fruits like blueberries, strawberries, and green grapes, paired with Guangdong specialty tea and soft candies, showcasing their attention to detail. Three handwritten welcome cards—for me, a birthday greeting, and my companion—demonstrated remarkable thoughtfulness. As night fell, turndown service brought fragrant fresh flowers and an exquisitely crafted birthday cake. The room was immaculately cleaned, amenities and minibar fully restocked, with a thoughtful touch of This Works sleep spray placed bedside—warmth in every detail. 🏘️️️ Room Type/Layout: The 90 sqm suite, while not oversized, is perfectly functional. Featuring a guest powder room, bathtub by the window, spacious walk-in closet, and well-zoned living/dining areas with corner bedroom—all designed for ultimate comfort. The hotel's public spaces shine at night, revealing St. Regis' signature understated luxury. The 6pm evening ritual at the pavilion near the lobby creates unforgettable ambiance. 🛌 Amenities/Facilities: Top-tier provisions throughout, from in-room offerings to public area features. Breakfast here sets the gold standard among Guangdong Marriott properties. An abundant dim sum selection—chicken feet, shaomai, shrimp dumplings—plus authentic local specialties like beef offal rice rolls. Artisanal waffles with perfect texture, bountiful berries, fresh juices, and impeccable eggs Benedict make it worth a special trip. 🧹 Soundproofing/Cleanliness: Superb sound isolation ensures tranquility. Impeccable cleanliness in every corner guarantees peace of mind. 💗 Pro Tips: Don't miss signature experiences like the evening ritual. Strategize breakfast time to sample all delicacies. Communicate special requests in advance for personalized surprises. The St. Regis Shenzhen Qianhai OCT's design aesthetic aligns perfectly with my taste—exceeding all photographic expectations. From pre-opening anticipation to post-stay experience, it has become my undisputed benchmark for St. Regis properties in mainland China. As Marriott International's 600th Greater China property and a new flagship for South China, maintaining this standard will make it my perennial Shenzhen choice!
