5-Star Hotels in Liaoning, China

First things first, I have to praise Ms. Lisa! Her service was incredibly warm and thoughtful, and she's as kind as she is beautiful. We arrived at the restaurant at 9:50, mistaking the breakfast cutoff time. The staff informed us they were about to close and urged us to grab more food. After quickly getting some items, I couldn't find the fruit. I asked a staff member, who I believe was Ms. Lisa. She kindly pointed out the location, and a few minutes later, she brought us a large plate of fruit, explaining that since they were closing soon, there wasn't much variety left, so she specially got more for us. I was already very grateful at this point. As I continued eating, Ms. Lisa brought over a paper bag filled with several takeout boxes, explaining again that she was worried we wouldn't be able to enjoy breakfast properly, so she packed some fruit, pastries, and drinks for us to eat on the road. After expressing my thanks, Ms. Lisa's thoughtful actions weren't over yet! A little while later, she brought another plate of beef ribs, saying that the lunch buffet was also ready and invited us to try some. Seriously, as a big foodie, you are the kindest angel of the F&B department!!! Returning to our room, we encountered housekeeping staff. Even though we said we still had bottled water, they proactively replenished several bottles, mentioning that Shenyang is dry and we should stay hydrated. The elevator was a bit tricky, but it offered great privacy. It was a weekday in November, the low season, but the front desk didn't offer an upgrade, though they did give us a small lion plushie. The executive lounge was decent, not as abundant as advertised online, but I'm not sure if that's because it was a weekday. The gym is large, and the pool facilities are excellent.

I'm a local from Shenyang, and for Qixi Festival, I wanted to try something different. This time, I booked a Horizon Club Garden View Room at Shangri-La. The view was fantastic, and in the evening, I could even take a stroll in Youth Park downstairs. The hotel's location is excellent; it connects directly to Kerry Centre Shopping Mall and MixC City underground, making shopping 🛍️ and dining incredibly convenient. **Ambiance:** Shangri-La has a classic, slightly dated feel in its traditional Chinese decor, but it still exudes a stately and comfortable elegance. **Cleanliness:** Spotlessly clean and tidy. I didn't find any neglected spots in the room. **Facilities:** While the in-room facilities are a bit dated, the bedding, in particular, was uncomfortable for me. The standard pillows were very soft, and the mattress was also quite soft, which didn't provide enough support for a comfortable sleep. This can be easily resolved by requesting latex or buckwheat pillows from the front desk, or asking to remove the feather topper from the mattress. (I personally prefer a combination of firm and soft elements for bedding.) Overall, it was acceptable. The hotel's swimming pool is heated. I had researched it before checking in, so I brought my swimsuit. It wasn't crowded, the water was very clean, and the lifeguard was constantly by the poolside, very dedicated. My partner and I swam 30 laps on the day we checked in – it was fantastic. **Service:** The service was incredibly attentive. I arrived before 1 PM, and since there was a vacant room, they arranged for me to check in immediately. Although it was a connecting room, it was very quiet at night and didn't disturb my sleep. However, if available, I would still try to avoid connecting rooms. Since I booked an executive floor room, I had access to the 30th-floor executive lounge. I'm not an elite member, but the overall service and hospitality were excellent and thoughtful. They offer soft drinks and snacks throughout the day. The afternoon tea is simple, with soft drinks and some light bites, but sitting by the window on the 30th floor with its expansive view and relaxing is a truly pleasant experience. The evening Happy Hour can also be quite satisfying if your expectations aren't too high, offering hot and cold dishes, along with alcoholic beverages. Now for the highlight: the Horizon Club breakfast was truly something to look forward to! The à la carte menu offered high-quality dishes, and as a foodie, I was absolutely delighted. It's more distinctive than a standard five-star breakfast. I would definitely return just for this breakfast!

This was my first time in Shenyang, and among the many branded hotels, we chose the Hilton Shenyang Shimao. Firstly, because of our preference for the brand, and secondly, because of its excellent location and convenient transportation. During check-in, Ms. Grace Hou at the front desk was warm, attentive, and very professionally handled our procedures. Throughout our stay, whenever we needed anything and called the front desk, the staff would respond quickly and provide meticulous service, making our stay more comfortable and pleasant. Our room on the 8th floor offered a fantastic view of Shenyang, overlooking Qingnian Street. The room was very clean, and the bedding and toiletries were high-quality, ensuring a great night's rest. The breakfast was rich and varied, and both the manager and staff were polite and provided thoughtful service. It's precisely because of the high quality of both the hotel's soft and hard amenities that we decided to spend all our nights in Shenyang at the Shimao Hilton. Highly recommend!

Big thanks to Eric, the concierge manager, for helping us have such a wonderful holiday! The hotel's location is fantastic; there's a subway station right downstairs, MixC Shopping Mall is nearby, and the Caidian Tower Night Market is just across the street. We added Manager Jin on WeChat after checking in, and communication was always prompt and smooth, which is perfect for family trips. We'll definitely book here again next time! The breakfast was also excellent. Getting around is super convenient; if you want a great scrub, Xinghe Yunhai nearby is highly recommended. Plus, Shenyang North Station is easily accessible by subway, which is a big plus!

My stay at the Grand Hyatt Shenyang was an excellent experience! I was particularly impressed by the professional service from the Guest Relations Manager. They even called back after check-out to follow up on my stay and proactively offered their contact details for any future assistance. This thoughtful and attentive care truly showcased the brand's warmth. Both the hotel's facilities and services are top-notch. It's a trustworthy and preferred choice that I would definitely revisit. Highly recommended!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Perfect Score | Amazing Family Trip to Shangri-La Dalian ✨ Staying in the children's themed room at Shangri-La Dalian with my little one was an absolute blast; the whole family was super satisfied! The room decor was full of childlike fun, the cartoon theme really hit the spot for the kids, and exclusive children's amenities and small toys were all readily available. The attention to detail was incredibly thoughtful. My child shrieked with joy upon entering the room, making it completely stress-free for mom! The hotel's children's play facilities are incredibly rich, and my little one had a blast, burning off energy all day, which was super convenient! Adults can also relax well. The heated pool's water quality is excellent, and the hot tub is comfortable and relieving. We enjoyed both swimming and soaking, feeling incredibly happy 💦 Special mention for the heartwarming service! A big thank you to the lovely Yina for her warm and attentive service throughout, she was incredibly helpful and accommodating. Also, the housekeeping auntie kept our room spotless and tidy; her service was meticulous and caring. You can feel Shangri-La's dedication everywhere ❤️ The location is excellent, the family-friendly facilities are top-notch, and the five-star quality lives up to its reputation. Next time we visit Dalian with the kids, we'll definitely choose this place again!

As soon as I entered the hotel, the handsome concierge helped me carry my luggage, showed me the way enthusiastically, and told me where to eat and where to have fun. It felt like an old friend who hadn't seen me for many years. The check-in at the front desk was also very smooth, and they helped me arrange a quiet non-smoking room. It was very considerate and the service exceeded my expectations. The room was clean and tidy, spacious and bright, the bed was very comfortable, and the big bathtub was perfect. It was so comfortable to take a hot bath at night. I fell asleep quickly. It snowed in Fushun, and the snow scene was so beautiful. The facilities in the hotel are also very complete, with a gym and a swimming pool. I went swimming a few laps when I had nothing to do, and it felt very refreshing. The location is also good. There are shopping malls and snack streets outside, and it is convenient to go anywhere. Speaking of food, the breakfast is so rich that it makes people dazzled. There are all kinds of Chinese and Western food, especially the bread and desserts are great. The experience is very good, and the price-performance ratio is absolutely high. It is worth the money and recommended.

Everyone at front desk were very helpful and accommodating. Room was new, clean and spacious. Hotel is of modern design and tastefully appointed. Landscape and surrounding areas are clean and pleasing to the eye. Highly recommended.

A few days before our stay, a staff member called to ask about our needs. They found out we were celebrating an anniversary, and the hotel thoughtfully arranged a complimentary room decoration, champagne, and an anniversary cake. Their exceptional care really boosted our impression of Dalian. The hotel's location is superb. If you're looking for a sea view, don't hesitate – this is the place; every room seems to face the ocean. The room itself was very clean and quiet.

This hotel is a landmark in Dalian, very close to Xinghai Square, and within walking distance. The hotel also provides a shuttle service between the hotel and the foot of the mountain. Our butler, Dansey, added me on WeChat a day in advance to ask about our arrival time and any room preferences. She even upgraded our room. After we checked in, Dansey noticed my child was interested in the desserts at the lobby bar, so she sent some up to our room, which made the child very happy. The room has a certain vintage feel to it, but it's the kind of old that's charming, not run-down. It's increasingly embracing that sense of history, much like European hotels that have been around for decades or even centuries. The view of Xinghai Square from the hotel window is absolutely beautiful. As Marriott members, we received complimentary breakfast for the children, and the breakfast spread was quite generous. Many thanks to Dansey for her warm and thoughtful service!
