Shanghai Huating Boutique Hotel Reviews

The hotel is good for the price. The pool is nice but too much chemicals for the sensitive skin. The room card was blocked before the check out time, a bit stressful because the reception is in another building. Otherwise, recommended.

Tucked away amidst lush tropical gardens, this intimate hotel on Sanya Island is a true hidden gem. The rooms are tastefully decorated with a fusion of traditional Chinese and contemporary elements, creating a harmonious and inviting ambiance. The on-site restaurant serves up delectable local and international cuisine, with a focus on fresh, locally sourced ingredients. Whether you're seeking a romantic escape or a serene retreat, this hotel offers an authentic and unforgettable Sanya experience.

I had a family vacation, I booked 2 parallel rooms, but I was given a room on 2 different floors. Also, the hotel was not clean enough, the gym was old, the equipment was broken, and there was a lot of dirt and dust. Hotel receptionists did not have a minimum knowledge of English, which made it difficult to communicate.

Overall I liked my stay at this hotel. Location is good, pool is clean and spacious. The room has kitchen and big balcony. The view is beautiful. The check in was smooth. We came before check in time but they let us in 30minutes earlier.

From my client: I stayed in the modern part of the hotel on the 13th floor. The view was stunning, the room was huge, and there were many amenities inside. The strangest thing was that the room lacked a refrigerator and kitchen utensils. In December (during my stay), the pool was completely closed, and there was no information about it. In fact, you find out about it not at the reception, but at the pool itself. As an experienced traveler who always moves around on my own, the hotel's location was quite advantageous. There are many small cafes nearby, a long beach, a beautiful wooden promenade, and several public transport stops, which are a 5-15 minute walk away. The hotel has private parking, which is convenient if you have rented a car. What can I say about breakfast? The reception and breakfast restaurant are located in the old part of the hotel. There is little lighting, the decor is old, and there is little aesthetic appeal. The cuisine is Chinese with elements of European food. Tourists who bought package tours and stayed in this part of the hotel had much worse rooms (the rooms were not renovated at all, the carpets were old, the wall paint was not great) than I did, who booked accommodation through this app. I would like to separately mention the work of the staff. The employees only speak Chinese, and they have no desire to assist you if you are a foreigner because they seem shocked and totally confused by you. Upon check-in, they did not provide any additional gifts that were provided by Trip.com when purchasing accommodation. As they say, the law there is one: if you need something, you have to insist on it using a Chinese translator and supporting documents. By the way, upon check-in, you have to leave a deposit, and most importantly, keep the deposit receipt so that you can get it back later.

The hotel stay was great. It was centrally located and the beach was close enough to walk within a few minutes. Breakfast was satisfactory and had many selections. I encourage you to make sure you keep a receipt for your initial deposit and confirm that it is returned prior to leaving. Our only complaint is we booked with Trip.com and prepaid for 5 nights. Due to flight delays we were only able to use 4 of the 5 prepaid nights. No refund was offered or even acknowledged. I do not recommend using Trip.com. Terrible experience

Hotel was really nice. Room was clean and bright. Everything was as described in the hotel description here. Room was big, the toilet was big, the bed was huge and the balcony was wide. Sea view is a sea view, but not so perfect. On the fourth floor I can clearly see the sea and the beach, but you are surrounded by other buildings. So you don't have a totally clear view as on the Instagram photos. But that really isn't the problem, it is still nice. Beach is 5 minutes away. Two really great western restaurants are 3-10 minutes away ( check for the BRUNCH restaurant and check the DOLPHIN place ). Pool in front of the hotel is really nice and clean, full of plants and nice corners to chill. Strange thing about the hotel is that there is no name of "Shanghai Huating Boutique Hotel". We were at the right location when we arrived, but you can only see "Sanya Baohong Hotel '' there across the street. So we asked around, everyone was pointing us to that Baohong Hotel ( check the building exterior of the picture I uploaded ) . We entered and it turned out that we were in the right place. So we checked in, took our key ( card ) and they directed us back to the rooms across the street. Anyway, we were worried at the beginning, but everything turned out to be really really good. I recommend this place for sure.

Good quality hotel. We had a large deluxe room with two beds which was perfect and a L-shaped sofa. We go the sea view but the sea is about 300 metres away so not really overlooking it. The pool and gym were the best parts of this hotel. Buffet Breakfast was ok. Lots of options to cater for all westerners and Chinese tourists.

Good stay at this hotel, the reception is not in the same building which is not told before booking. However, the room and pool are are amazing for the price.

Restaurant is located other building. It was little bit difficult. Otherwise this hotel was awesome.

Cleaning was good. But no body speak english.and front desk staff not friendly.

We stayed for 1 week. Everything was good

Beautiful facilities and great location.

The front desk personnels are not so friendly,
