HUMBLE HALL

Gulangyu Scenic Area Xiamen|0.69km from Xiamen Underwater World
For the first time in life, A hotel that I would never leave. The waiter who picked me up from the ferry terminal was wearing black Chinese overalls, carrying a white canvas bag, and holding a yellow umbrella... When we arrived at the hotel gate, the girl in white with a big smile came out to greet us... When we entered the lobby, we were immediately served with welcome tea (Picture 1). We opened our towels, wiped our hands, and drank tea while waiting to check in... Brother Huang Umbrella and a manager sent us to the room, and explained the facilities and supporting facilities in detail, and even demonstrated how to secure the room door... Then go to the coffee shop and enjoy the exquisite afternoon tea provided by the hotel. The tables and chairs in the cafe are all medieval, which appeals to my aesthetic taste... What I didn't expect is that the desserts taste better than those in professional shops outside! Also, after learning that we were here for our wedding anniversary, the hotel immediately upgraded our room for free. What a surprise. The hotel is where the famous piano master Yin Chengzong received piano enlightenment from an early age. There are only 13 rooms, and the overall decoration style is retro and high-end. I held my camera and couldn't stop taking pictures... Breakfast was also very good. Every waiter is kind and polite. If you come to Gulangyu Island, I highly recommend staying at Hongtang.

Guxiang Hostel

Although it is a homestay, it is not inferior to a big hotel at all. The hotel is very close to the coast and you can see the sea view when you go out. The hotel owner is very enthusiastic and helped us choose a room. Finally, I chose a twin room on the third floor. The room was clean and tidy, and there was no smell. , The facilities are complete, very quiet, and the next day they also helped us deposit the bag for free, so that we can go lightly and travel around the island, which is very good.
