Chang An Holiday Hotel — Hotel in Zhuhai

This was a quick arrangement and we figured with the name "holiday Inn" at the end of its name and being a 5 Star hotel it would be a great at 320¥ a night. To our shock it was not a bargain but I felt cheated. ||||First thing which was clear it was not a Holiday Inn but I was called Zuhai Chang'an Holiday Hotel. Now the lobby was beautiful, something classical and not too bad. The location was in the middle of everything, shopping, tourist attraction and a park. ||||When we arrived in our room we were welcomed by the smell of old cigarettes and dirty floors and bed sheets. We asked for another room but they said no because the other rooms where near a convention and it would be too noisy. |||| The bathroom had make up left behind by another occupant and we where not happy that the housekeeping did not do their due diligence when cleaning the room. We called housekeeping and they came up right away to clean the room again. ||||I will recommend the spa which is typical Chinese and good value. My partner and I had a joint massage and it was fun and relaxing. Then men are required to wear throw away underwear, not a problem but they don't come is a size bigger then 34 waist. ||||The breakfast was the worst of all. If you are a foreigner then you are stuck with typical Chinese food (lunch and dinner). I like Chinese food but the food was cold and the selection was very poor. They did not have eggs, toast, yogurt or anything a typical westerners would want to eat. If you have the breakfast I suggest you eat somewhere else. ||||Overall my rating is fare. The hotel staff was friendly and professional. They made me feel welcomed and did their best to accommodate us. But this is nowhere near a 5 start rating and should be removed from a luxurious hotel to a basic hotel. Internationally this deserves no more than a 3...

My wife and i visit macau every year. this year, we decided to spend a couple of nights in zhuhai to allow ourselves ample time to explore their underground shopping. i booked changan hotel thru agoda and got an excellent 1-day hot sale deal. this property is a five star hotel, offering free breakfast buffet and free use of a well designed in-door pool. breakfast has a pretty good spread with fruit section.didnt notice any forigner here but majority chinese guests, breakfast catering to chinese dishes i.e. noodles nd congee, however, they do offer bread, pastries, and fried eggs. indoor pool is free of use. but steam bath and sauna come with a 68rmb fee. free room wifi, and has a desk top computer with webcam provided. our standard room was about 35 sq.meter but we were upgraded to a corner room which gave us 42 sq.meter. they have soothing foot spa for 88rmb. we had a 1-hour full body massage in our room for 138rmb, excellent after a tiresome trip. taxi to gongbei port will cost 10 to 12 rmb. however, coming back was a drag, because taxi drivers or private cars will charge a negotiated 30 to 40rmb 5 to 8 pm rush hour. hotel staff speak very limited english. surprisingly, their cantonese restaurant has excellent dishes with reasonable price, but menu only written in chinese. hotel surroundings dont have restaurants shopping, or groceries to go to. however, overall, this hotel catered...

My girlfriend and I thought we would save a little money on our trip to Macau by staying in a Zhihai hotel. Most of the casinos run a shuttle bus to the border crossing. Based on reviews here and other websites, we chose this hotel. By Chinese standards it is rated 5-stars. The room was nice and the shower never ran out of hot water. We upgraded to the Deluxe Business Room. It was a waste of money. The upgrade uncluded a breakfast buffet for two. We went to breakfast an hour before it ended and found that most of the steam table food was gone. The chefs were in no hurry to replace the food, and in fact except for one dish they did not re[lace the food. The toilet backed up, so I imagine the previous guest was flushing toilet paper down instead of using the garbage can. The bedsheet was stained and dirty looking. ||||I now wish I spent a little more money on a room in a Macau casino hotel. Avoiding the long border crossing lines and getting a better class room would be worth the higher cost. If you still want to stay here, do not spend the extra money on an upgrade just to get the breakfast buffet. ||||This and other websites claim that the hotel is a "two-minute" drive to the border. Not. The hotel is about a 10-minute drive or a...
