Fliport Garden Hotel Xiamen

“Bath at a middle of room”

Nice, very clean with good service just 10 min walk from Xiamen airport. Breakfast were just ordinary a bit more Chinese style than western. Room was big and clean but why bathtub was place just next to bed? Currently out were some kind of construction site, which keep noise all over the night.

“Good Choice Around The Airport”

Based on the prices seen in Xiamen at the time of my stay (middle of Sep. 2018), I would say the $55 I paid here per night was well worth it.

Based on the prices seen in Xiamen at the time of my stay (middle of Sep. 2018), I would say the $55 I paid here per night was well worth it. I stayed for 3 nights not because I was transiting between flights but because it seem as best value for money, it was indeed good deal. Probably the best two points with this hotel are the proximity to the airport (less than 5 minutes away driving) and the breakfast buffet. We got free shuttle both from the airport to the hotel and from the hotel back to the airport. Please note that you must call in advance to book their free shuttle so call them before your departure to verify that someone will be waiting for you. The breakfast is very Chinese and being a foreigner I loved it! Plus it was extremely healthy and based on different types of steamed vegetables. The variety was great. The hotel staff are very nice, a few of them can speak English. Get a translation app and you're good to go even with the ones who do not speak English. I used the swimming pool and it was also nice although quite shallow (1.5m deep). A taxi to the city center (Zhongshan Walking Street) would cost you between RMB 40 to RMB 50 depending on the traffic and it takes about 20 minutes. The only two problems I found with this hotel: 1) The internet sucked big time. It was very slow. The WiFi worked better in the lobby area but was still considerably slow. 2) The toilet flush mechanism is the type that does a favor working. It can so easily get clogged from your excrement and it takes more than a single flush to clear it.

“Quarantined and not enjoying it”

The checkin was slow due to all COVID related business, but I eventually arrived in what appeared to be a large room with all facilities you could ask for, however.... Most of it is broken.

Ended up here for my quarantine of 2 weeks in Xiamen. The checkin was slow due to all COVID related business, but I eventually arrived in what appeared to be a large room with all facilities you could ask for, however.... Most of it is broken. AC won't cool so I'm usually sitting in 26-27C, bedsheets are still wet when I go to bed. Power outlets are broken, so you can't plug in fans. HVAC equipment nearby so noisy you can hear it through the bed when sleeping on your side. Carpet is wearing so hard you'll be greeted by tumble weed like dust throughout the room. Staff are trying, even in English, can't fault them. Food is ok, sometimes good even. But service slow. It pays to joke about a bit with staff, lighten the mood. Communicate with them through WeChat.
