Hotels near Zuohai Marine World, Fuzhou

My wife and I recently spent a few days at the Fuzhou Sanbaobindi Hotel for a much-needed getaway, and it was, without question, the best hotel experience we’ve ever had. Situated in the heart of Fuzhou’s historic Sanfang Qixiang district, the hotel was the perfect base for exploring the cultural treasures of old Fuzhou—all within easy walking distance, including access to the metro. From the moment we stepped in, the experience was exceptional. We were warmly welcomed with traditional tea and snacks, and the check-in process was a breeze—under three minutes! Our room overlooked a beautifully manicured Chinese garden and perfectly balanced traditional design with modern comfort. Every detail in the room was spotless, showing a clear respect for the historical architecture. The true highlight of our stay, however, was the level of care and hospitality provided by the staff, especially our guest services manager, Roy Huang. Roy went above and beyond, offering us night snacks and daily desserts and taking time to share insights into Fuzhou’s rich history and culture. Our conversations with him were a true pleasure—learning about the city’s architecture, the hotel’s own story, and even the local tea culture, which he introduced us to with great care and knowledge. It’s rare to meet someone who makes you feel so genuinely welcome. Roy’s attention to detail and kindness transformed our stay into something extraordinary. We left Fuzhou with a much deeper appreciation for the city, and it was all thanks to the team at the Sanbaobindi Hotel. If you’re looking for an authentic yet refined stay that captures the spirit of traditional Fuzhou, I couldn’t recommend the Sanbaobindi Hotel highly enough. A heartfelt thank you to Roy and the entire staff for making this trip truly unforgettable.

Location was unbeatable! Right next to dongbai metro station. Cleanliness was ok, but could be improved. Mirror had some stains and room showed some signs of aging. Breakfast was average and mainly catered to the Chinese market

Due to flight delay, arrived to hotel at 04:00 instead of plan 23:30, the front desk 华启 was helpful and welcome me with smile and speedy check-in process so I could go to my room for a good rest. After a few hours of rest, then a nice breakfast, I walked to the front desk for tips of walk around of Fuzhou. Front desk staff 胡婷婷 has provided me an indepth of the local taste of Fuzhou and detail information of 三坊七巷. With her professional approach and thoughtful help, I hence tasted all Fouzhou flavors and enjoyed my visit to the 三坊七巷. The room is clean and tidy with bottles of water which is very nice to have after a long walk during the warm weather in Fuzhou. Thanks to 蔡秀花 who made the room tidy and comfortable, clean up the used coffee cups and refill with coffee for further usuage. Thanks to 华启, 胡婷婷 and 蔡秀花 so I have a pleasant stay in Fuzhou.

Great location great hotel! Staff can't speak English. Beds were so soft and comfy. Rooms were spacious. Laundry room is excellent with dryers, washers and steamer. When we didn't retrieve our clothes in time, staff helped us fold some of our laundry and placed it all in a bag. Love that there were non-smoking rooms. Finally can sleep without the lingering hint of smoke in my nostrils. So close to the mall and the cute pedestrian zone. Tons of options for food and shopping. The hotel provides you with so many water bottles! Really appreciate it as this city gets super hot.

Overall, I am shocked that a Mercure (Accor) hotel would be of this quality or standard. The hotel lobby & entrance did not not even have concierge services or a ramp to ease the luggage load, I had to carry 2 big luggages up a flight of 4 steps to enter the hotel lobby entrance. Room cleanliness was below acceptance, my suite & room windows were atrociously dirty, my room aircon vents were partly broken, other room and hotel amenities are unlike a 4 star business hotel that Accor brands would be! A saving grace was the hotel central location & the 2-3 reception staff that were quite helpful at times but failed in terms of providing any local area expertise or recommendations (food, attractions, etc.) well when asked. This is probably not suited for a tourist or leisure type hotel guest.

We were given a free room upgrade. The room was big and clean. It was really nice to be able to stay here at this price. The service was also good. Luggage storage was available. It was also very convenient to travel around. It took about 10 minutes to walk to Sanfang Qixiang. There were also many places to eat. I was very satisfied!

This hotel appears to be affiliated with A tour Hotel, which is a well-established local hotel chain. As such, all the rooms are well equipped with the usual items, including a smart auto flush toilet with a heated seat. The welcome fruit platter was much appreciated and the extra bottle of drinking water offered to me when I left was also a nice and thoughtful gesture. In fact, everyone in the hotel was very friendly and helpful during my stay. They even let me store luggage for three days when I was in Wu Yi Mountain. The hotel also provided a complimentary supper at 9:30pm of rice porridge, pastries, cakes, and snacks. Breakfast was simple but featured local signature dishes. The hotel also provided free use of laundry machines and fitness equipment. The hotel is literally facing the South Exit of Fuzhou Railway Station at approximately 200 meters between them. Although there was not a lot to do around the hotel, the metro Line 1 is right next to the South Exit of the railway station.

Rooms are spacious, however cleanliness of the hotel is lacking , you can tell they don’t do a thorough clean of the bathrooms … with water marks on the stainless steel and soap scum around the taps … The air conditioning sound is also very loud , as it was hot outside it took a long time for the aircon to cool the room down at night. Had to use the earplugs to drown out the noise …

I extend my stay in this hotel due to its cleanliness and the room is spacious, location is also very convenient. The hotel do provide free self service laundry with free detergent at the 2nd floor. The hotel room also provided free toiletries and free bedroom slippers. The airport shuttle bus is just opposite the hotel which is very convenient to go to the airport in time.

The hotel staff were very nice, polite and accomodating. I had arrived there early and they did not have a problem looking after my belongings while I explored the city. As I explored they had called to notify me that the room was ready and that I could come back at any time. When I had returned they informed me that they had given me a free upgrade. The room was very clean and comfortable. The breakfast the next morning was very delicious and had quite a few options. Located in the centre of the city and the area around it is also very interesting with many international restaurant options. 100% would style there again
