Room was very small, breakfast was minimal

It’s excellent for business trip! Location near subway train, you can access airport easily! The only problem is catching a taxi, as lobby is on 6/F, you can’t get enough help and not easy to get the taxi for a foreigner!

I would have rated this hotel 5 except for 2 issues that made my stay less enjoyable. Firstly I was staying on a non smoking room where the entire corridor clearly states “no smoking” everywhere. Despite this people would still smoke next to the lifts and the smoke could be smelt from my room. The corridors always stunk of cigarette smoke and although it isn’t condoned, this is apparently just accepted in China and staff will not address this problem. The second issue was the unscheduled maintenance work on the swimming pool and gym during my entire stay. There was no mention of this on the website which was a shame for a 2 week stay. Other than this the hotel rooms are lovely. They are very spacious with a great view over the city. Fantastic location near prestigious stores such as Gucci, Prada etc, and 5 mins walk to the new metro station which will take you 14 stops to Dalian airport. Taxis are never hard to catch from this location and several restaurants are located literally outside the main entrance. The hotel is clean and tidy and the cleaners always put plenty of bottled water, tea and coffee in the rooms daily.

Front desk very helpful. Terrific breakfast. Well equipped gym, pool sauna and steam room. Good restaurants close by.

Location is good and room is comfortable except the window is facing another building

Travelling for business. Pool was small but clean and the water was nice 28 deg. The reception is good and accommodating. For me bed is the most important and I can say the bed is very comfortable. If you like hard mattress then this is not the hotel for you. You can try Nikko Dalian or holiday inn express. I have also stayed in those hotels. After Intercontinental Dalian this was the best. Only downside was the breakfast. Coffee was bad and cold. They did not refill properly. There was no toaster for bread. The whole fruit was almost always empty. The fried egg department was not very active. The fried egg quality was bad. The staff was nice though. Seating arrangement was also good. The WiFi service is average. The speed is not so great and on the 26th floor I had bad phone reception. The cleaning ladies were amazing and nice people.

This hotel is fairly good when I consider the price. Breakfast was fine. I will stay here if I visit Dalian again.

Booked for one night, but enjoyed it so much we stayed for two. Lovely roomy rooms. Nice and modern. Lovely helpful staff for foreigners who are just starting their 'Mandarin-learning' journey! Highly recommend.
