Kempinski — Hotel in Shenyang City

Very convenient with direct access subway from airport. Eateries are limited around the hotel. Walk 200m toward the TV tower & u may find some. I stayed in a midsize suite for a night & on my return 2 nights, they upgraded to the biggest suite.The mid sized suite face the TV tower which the largest suite they give me face a construction site which run 24hrs. Light sleeper do take note. Mattress is softer & more comfortable in the big suite. Toilet bowl for the midsize suite are in a separated room away from bathroom. Breakfast not worth mentioning but the staff are polite. I would rate this as a good basic business hotel. Not the luxurious type u are looking for. Very good price tho.. The main downside for me would be the renovation smells that linger strongly in part of corridor & room. There is a pungent plastic burning smell that bothers me. Secondly, the aircon blower was shut in winter period. I susposed to save cost. Only a small air vent above the window. The air is still & stuffy in the room. I had to left the main door ajar to get some breeze in the room. Pictures are the 80meter square room. Last 4pics are the midsize suite. Prices in chinese dy website are...

Some of the staff in the breakfast area was overwhelmed (although there where not many people) others did their job listless. And maybe some of the stuff should be trained to smile at the guest not to laugh at the guest if they...

up 100+ CNY per night since my last stay, but the quality deteriorated significantly: - no more salmon for breakfast - no more potato salad for breakfast (used to be my favorite) - only about 1/3 of the usual chocolate in the chocolate croissants - very little cheese in the cheese omelette - wait 5 minutes for your second cup of coffee after asking for one - in the room: TV broken, desk lamp broken - at least the tooth picks are still of superior quality, but also the rooms are still clean and well equipped Also, I hate it when the staff always greet me in English. Like all other countries in the world, they should first greet me in the local language and only switch to English if I can't...
