The stay experience was very pleasant. Located in the core of Shenzhen Futian CBD, Wyndham Grand Shenzhen offers great convenience for commuting, dining and shopping. The surrounding streets are well arranged for the upcoming APEC meetings starting on November 17, with clear bilingual signs and neatly renovated street views, making it super easy to find nearby shops and restaurants even as a foreign visitor.
Jossce provided thoughtful service throughout the whole process. She pre-arranged my room as requested, made the late check-in process totally smooth after my temporary meeting, and even proactively upgraded my room to a high-floor one with a nice city view. The guest room is clean, spacious and comfortable. The well-stocked breakfast with both Western and local Cantonese options helped me get fully ready for each day's schedule. I will definitely choose this hotel again for my future Shenzhen business trips, and highly recommend it to those who will come for the APEC events laterFrom€ 122

Overall, we had a fantastic stay. The check-in process was handled smoothly and swiftly by our personal butler, with a lot of thoughtful attention to detail. Initially, we didn't feel quite comfortable in our first room, but after speaking with the butler, a room change was arranged very quickly—super efficient service! They also kindly requested a late check-out for us, giving us extra time to rest and refresh. In the evening, looking out the room window at the sweeping night city lights was so soothing and really helped us unwind. Communication throughout the entire stay was effortless and stress-free. You could really tell the staff genuinely strive to solve problems for their guests. We are thoroughly satisfied with our experience.From€ 113

Shenzhen Convention & Exhibition Center Shenzhen|1.12km from downtown
I know this hotel is undergoing renovations, and some packages for the new room types even include lounge access and five meals a day, which offers excellent value for money!
First, regarding the room, the newly renovated style is minimalist and refined. The room feels very spacious and has excellent natural light. The bathroom amenities include Diptyque shampoo, shower gel, and lotion, which was a very pleasant touch.
Next, concerning the dining, the five meals included afternoon tea, happy hour, evening dessert and drinks after check-in, and breakfast and lunch on the second day. The afternoon tea was a pleasant surprise. Although the food selection for happy hour wasn't extensive, it focused on quality over quantity. I didn't get to enjoy the late-night dessert session, but I learned that it was a chocolate-themed dessert night, and the themes are updated regularly. It's worth noting that no matter when you dine, you can enjoy unlimited alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages.
Finally, I'd like to commend the hotel's service. All the staff I encountered during this stay were extremely polite and friendly. Especially Miss Sahar at the front desk, the check-in process was very smooth and efficient, and she even followed up afterward to see if I needed any assistance. A male staff member in the lounge also provided very professional service, always greeting us with a warm smile every time we entered the lounge for a meal.
Overall, my experience during this stay was excellent, and I look forward to visiting again after the full renovation!From€ 335

The location is absolutely fantastic, right on Longxiang Avenue in Longgang Central City, close to the Longgang District Government, Red Cube, and Universiade. It's convenient whether you're driving or taking the subway, and there are plenty of dining and shopping options nearby.
🛏 Room
The room was clean and tidy upon check-in. The bedding is Crown Plaza's classic 'Sleep Advantage,' offering just the right balance of softness and firmness, with pillow options. The sound insulation is quite good for a hotel in the city center. The bathroom has ample space, hot water is fast, and the details (night light, dehumidifier, charging ports) are well thought out. Some floors show a bit of age, but it doesn't affect comfort, making it suitable for both business and family stays.
🍳 Buffet Breakfast (Café Fusion)
The variety is quite comprehensive: Chinese options include congee, rice noodle rolls, buns, noodles, and Cantonese dim sum; Western options feature bread, bacon, scrambled eggs, freshly made coffee, and juices. The fruits and salads are also fresh. I recommend going early during peak hours for more comfortable seating. Overall, it's a 'solid and reliable five-star' breakfast that doesn't disappoint.
🦞 Buffet Dinner (Highly Recommended)
The weekend/themed buffets are exceptional – seafood (river prawns, shellfish, oysters), thick-cut salmon, freshly carved Peking duck, grilled meats and steaks, lamb chops, and hot pot/hot dishes are served in rotation. The desserts and ice cream are also excellent and not an afterthought. On the night we went, we caught the seafood + limited stew/caviar appetizer, which offered excellent value for money among similar establishments in Longgang. The service was prompt in clearing plates, and there were child-friendly options for those with kids.From€ 74

The hotel boasts a prime location right next to Luohu Port and Shenzhen Railway Station, making cross-border travel and train journeys incredibly convenient. With a well-developed transportation network nearby, it's a hassle-free choice for both commuting and sightseeing.
The hotel itself is grand and impressive, exuding the classic charm of an established star-rated hotel. The lobby is spacious and bright, and all public areas are clean and tidy. The front desk staff were gentle and polite, handling check-in and check-out procedures quickly and smoothly. They were also patient and thorough in answering any questions, providing thoughtful and attentive service.
I stayed in a Superior King Room, which was spacious and impeccably clean, with excellent attention to detail in hygiene. The room had great natural light, and the bedding was soft and comfortable, ensuring a good night's sleep. All in-room amenities were complete and well-maintained; the bathroom had consistent water pressure, and the Wi-Fi was fast. Standing by the window, I enjoyed a pleasant city view. The hotel also offers dining and leisure areas, making daily life convenient during my stay.
For a hotel located so close to the border, the value for money in this area is outstanding.

Shenzhen Bao'an International Airport and Fuyong Shenzhen|26.69km from downtown
As a first-time guest, I felt that clearer directional signs would have been very helpful—specifically regarding how to get to the hotel from Exit 16 at the airport, and how to access Exit 18 to enter the airport when leaving. Also, the lobby is on the 1st floor, while airport transfers are on the 3rd floor. It would be great if they could add a check-out counter on the 3rd floor as well. When checking in at the lobby, please speak a bit slower for guests who aren't familiar with the process; at the time, my husband and I were the only guests there. Maybe a rather ”cool” attitude is just your style, but I didn't quite get it. As a guest, I really didn't want to listen to a detailed explanation of why overseas credit cards can be tricky to use. Our card failed when paying for dinner at the 3rd-floor Chinese restaurant, and at the lobby check-in, we had to try several different machines before the payment finally went through. Fine! Every Hyatt might have slightly different payment processing details, but honestly, I just wanted reassurance that I could use my overseas credit card, rather than having staff assume the guest was at fault. We stood there with our heavy backpacks, looking foolish while the front desk staff processed things expressionlessly, until my husband decided to put our luggage aside and come back to continue standing there like we were being punished. Fortunately, a staff member in a light blue uniform eventually took the initiative to guide us to the elevators, and that was when we finally started to feel welcomed.
On the hardware side, the soundproofing deserves high praise. I couldn't hear any outside airplane or street traffic noise at all, which made for a great night's sleep, and even the entry-level room felt spacious and comfortable. The buffet breakfast offered a wide variety of good quality food, though it would be a nice touch to have labels indicating the specific type of meat.From€ 95

Found a French Riviera-inspired B&B in Shenzhen 🏡 Mello truly has romance etched into its soul. White walls + French courtyard + endless sea views – every shot looks like it's straight out of a movie 🎬. The housekeeper even provided thoughtful sleep eye masks 💤.
Open the window to a sunset over the orange sea 🌇. Sunlight streams into the room, making even the air feel gentle. The courtyard is fragrant with lemon trees and passion fruit, and you can spend an entire afternoon on the swing. A cocktail and a tipsy view of the sea are so therapeutic.

Having stayed at a few Four Seasons hotels, this one in Shenzhen didn't quite meet the brand standards I've come to expect. It's definitely an older hotel; nearly all the countertops and table edges in the room were uneven. The only place to find tissue paper in the entire room was by the sink, and the mirror was quite oxidized and blackened. There were no welcome fruits either. These aren't huge issues, but the main problem was cleanliness. On the cabinet wall next to the hangers, there was a large area of a sticky substance, like unremoved glue. Inside the wardrobe, you could feel a noticeable grittiness, like un-wiped dust, which made me hesitant to hang my intimate apparel. The spout of the kettle for boiling water was already green... These kinds of issues just shouldn't be present in a Four Seasons hotel. On the positive side, the front desk service was very warm and friendly, and the buffet environment was excellent.

Huaqiangbei Area Shenzhen|2.16km from downtown
Comfortable and offers great value for money. The staff are exceptionally professional. While checking in, I saw foreigners also going through the process, and the handsome front desk agent spoke fluent English. He walked us through the hotel rooms, breakfast options, and local dining spots entirely in English. I booked a room without an exterior window, but it had an interior view window instead. The room was clean, tidy, and very quiet, ensuring a great night's sleep. In addition to a clothesline, the shower room actually featured a movable long hook, which is super convenient for hanging items and towels while showering. The fun captions on the complimentary tea bags provided in the room were a delightful touch. Next to the restaurant is a rooftop garden—it's so relaxing to catch the breeze up there. The self-service laundry and drying facilities mean you never have to worry about your clothes not drying by the next day. Breakfast offered a wide variety, and the noodle soup was delicious. There is a Cantonese restaurant called Ziyuange on the first floor with a very stylish interior. A friend came by at noon, and we ordered a set meal there—the crispy abalone was simply amazing.From€ 52
