Ocean View Hotels in Hebei, China

Great location with ample parking. The staff were very friendly and helpful, and the environment is excellent. You can watch the sunrise right from your room, and the beach is just across the street. The hygiene is also top-notch, very clean and tidy. We had a very comfortable stay and highly recommend it. Plus, it's less crowded during the off-season.

My stay this time was great! The lady at the front desk was so helpful during check-in, and she even offered a complimentary room upgrade, which gave me better lighting and a nicer view. The hotel was clean, and the facilities were new. Plus, there were plenty of outlets for charging, making for a very comfortable stay.

Booked a sea-view twin room for our family trip over New Year's Day, and the front desk upgraded us to a sunrise room (though we couldn't wake up early enough to see the sunrise). It was a bit better than expected; the room was clean and tidy, and the bedding was very comfortable. MaoYe Shopping Mall is right downstairs, accessible directly from the hotel, which was super convenient as we didn't even need to put on a coat to go for a meal in the middle of winter. The only minor drawback was that the hotel parking lot is shared with the mall. Being new to the area and arriving on a holiday, we were stuck in traffic trying to get in for a long time and then still had to search for a parking spot. However, after telling the hotel, we got free parking, which was a nice touch. Overall, it was a pretty satisfactory stay.

The biggest advantage of this established five-star hotel is its grand lobby, elevators, and spacious rooms, all with a logical layout and no overly flashy tech. The hotel is well-maintained, and the front desk staff and bellhops are friendly and proactive. My only disappointment was the breakfast; the variety was limited, and the taste wasn't great. The egg pancake was too salty, the coffee was bitter and lacked aroma, the soy milk had a strong powdery taste, and the hard-boiled eggs were cold. The only redeeming item was the noodles, which were decent.

Right opposite the exit of Pigeon Nest Park, there's a seafood buffet next door. The parking lot inside has plenty of spaces. The overall environment is quite quiet, and the front desk staff are particularly welcoming. They even offer some light meals in the evening. There aren't many dining options around, so it's best to drive to the beach area for food. Overall, it's a good place.

I kept hearing about the new Lanxi opening and wanted to check it out, but it turns out I shouldn't have gotten my hopes up. **Location:** It's in Phase 10, not in the main resort area. It takes about 30 minutes to walk there from the beach. **Parking:** There aren't many parking spots next to the hotel, and the signs are unclear. I had to drive all the way around to get to the lobby, only to find out later that I could have just walked through the Sea Restaurant. **Note⚠️:** You *can* drive to the main resort area, but it's not free!!! **[No one informed me of this during check-in.]** **Room & Environment:** The sea view was decent. However, there were mold spots on the walls in the room, and the balcony door was broken; it needed an engineer to fix it. The fixed showerhead in the bathroom sprayed water in various directions, and the water pressure was low. The soundproofing was terrible; I could hear the strong sea breeze outside in the middle of the night and even the sound of toilets flushing in surrounding rooms. **Shuttle Bus:** To go from the hotel to the main resort area, just wait for the bus at the hotel entrance. To return to the hotel from the main resort area, you need to contact your butler to arrange a car. **Sea Restaurant:** This was the only restaurant available near the hotel. The cashier lady's service was good. The overall food quality was not good and couldn't compare to the restaurants in the main resort area. I saw a restaurant manager (perhaps) asking for feedback from diners. I thought they would ask everyone (there weren't many tables occupied at the time), but they clearly only asked the property owners. Perhaps the opinions of hotel guests aren't considered important. **Conclusion:** For this price point, if you want a sea view, stay at Club Med. If you want convenience, stay at Anlan. You can even park for free in the main resort area. This place truly isn't good value for money.

Complimentary three travel photos: Extremely satisfied! The makeup artist was incredibly patient and skilled; we were very happy with the makeup and styling she did for us. She also helped us choose an outfit that perfectly matched the photography style, instantly elevating the quality of the photos. The photographer was excellent at guiding our poses and emotions. We're not usually good at taking pictures, but this time we ended up with cinematic, blockbuster-like photos – a wonderful surprise that provided a lot of emotional value. The photo selection assistant was also very patient, helping us go through several rounds of selections until we found photos we both loved, with absolutely no pressure to choose more. The entire process was very comfortable and rewarding. Highly recommend! Facilities: The facilities are modern and comprehensive; you can find everything you need for dining, entertainment, and relaxation right at the hotel. Service: The service was impeccable, and we didn't encounter any impatience throughout our stay.

The hotel is very beautiful, the lobby is magnificent, the rooms are also quite large and very clean, praise the handsome guy at the front desk who upgraded us to a sea view room for free, the hotel is right at the doorstep, it is very convenient to go out and play, and it is also very convenient in all directions, there is a snack street just two steps away from Lawson, and there is also a seafood street next to it, there is a Lanzhou ramen seafood barbecue restaurant that sells seafood at a super affordable price, much cheaper than other restaurants, the portion is large, and the taste is okay, the hotel has everything, and there is a beach party just two steps away from the door in the evening. The only two bad points are, first, the breakfast is said to end at 10 o'clock in the summer, but when we went there at 9 o'clock, there was nothing left, and no supplementary meals, cakes and drinks were all gone. It is a bad experience for a five-star hotel to not supplementary meals so early in advance, and second, it rained during the day, so we could only play indoors, but the children's swimming pool equipment was under maintenance and could not be used, and they said it could not be used the next day, which really spoiled the fun for the children. I hope it will be improved

Pros (for our stay at De Lin Hai Yue): 1. Excellent service. The front desk upgraded our room type because we had a large group. 2. Good hygiene. 3. Quiet environment. 4. Very close to Laohushi Park, about a 10-minute walk. 5. Single person soothing foot spa experience: Decent. They provided a foot bath tub and herbal sachets, and we just filled it with hot water in the bathroom ourselves. 6. Seagull feeding: They gave us a small bread to feed the little seagulls. 7. Free parking with ample spaces. 8. Both the room and hotel environment were pleasant. 9. Adequate heating in the room. 10. Good soundproofing. 11. Whenever we called the front desk during our stay, their attitude and speed in resolving issues were commendable. Cons: 1. Since it's still a bit of a distance from Laohushi Park, I feel only the 3rd-floor sea view rooms would offer a better view. We stayed on the 2nd floor with a garden view. 2. The shower uses an electric water heater, so we had to wait half an hour between showers. I don't consider this a major drawback, as the front desk informed us in advance, and the hot water heated up quickly. Situational notes: 1. We visited during the off-season, so almost all the nearby restaurants were closed. Thankfully, food delivery services were quite accessible. 2. We didn't book breakfast, so I can't comment on its quality. Here's a heads-up to avoid a place: Steer clear of Qinhuangdao First View Moonlight B&B near Jinmenghaiwan. We stayed in their 10th-floor loft, which had a good view but terrible soundproofing. The owner was incredibly rude; it felt like we were staying at their house. While we were there, the owner took a personal call in our room for at least 5 minutes. What was that about? If you don't want to run a B&B, then don't; no one's forcing you to take our business. Getting out and ordering takeout was very inconvenient. Since it's a residential area, you need an elevator card to leave, and if there are too many people, you might not be able to get back up. Deliveries couldn't enter the complex, so we had to go downstairs to pick them up. It had only one advantage: it was close to the sea and Qinhuang Xiaoxiang. However, I also need to warn against Qinhuang Xiaoxiang itself; it's just a combination of a snack street and overpriced souvenir shops, not worth visiting. Note: The B&B owner tries to persuade guests to book directly instead of through platforms. That's why I couldn't leave a review there and give them a bad rating.

This hotel is perfectly situated in Aranya Phase 6, right by the sea. It's a tranquil spot amidst the bustle. The rooms facing east offer stunning sea views, while the west-facing rooms are Loft style. I was initially worried about noise, but after staying for two nights, it was fine. I booked a room with breakfast, and there's a good selection of both Western and Chinese options, which was convenient as it saved us a trip to the canteen. The hotel provides free shuttle service for transfers, and the room came with complimentary fruit and various beverages – a very thoughtful touch. If you don't manage to get a sea view room, you can still catch the sunrise from the public terrace on the second floor. A special shout-out to our butler, she was incredibly attentive and provided excellent service – a definite plus! I've stayed in B&Bs in the park twice before, but this hotel experience was great, particularly due to the meticulous service.
