tanglayaxiu Hotels in Tianjin

The location is great, just a stone's throw from Xikai Church, with several shopping malls nearby. It's really convenient for dining and getting around. I appreciated being able to extend check-out until 2 PM; otherwise, with the typhoon causing massive flight delays, being stuck at the airport would have been quite painful. Now for the downsides. The hotel is advertised as a 6-star hotel by some organization and meets domestic 5-star standards in terms of room decor, but there are many flaws in the details. 1. The toilet space in the suite is only big enough for a single suitcase, yet the walk-in closet is disproportionately large in comparison. 2. For a 5-star hotel, there's not even a set-top box. They use an analog cable TV system with incredibly poor picture quality, let alone premium channels like HBO. 3. The front desk staff lacked smiles throughout the check-in process. We had three people staying and an extra bed was added, but they didn't even think to provide an extra set of slippers, toothbrushes, or towels. 4. I used my Ctrip membership to redeem a complimentary mini-bar feature, but I wasn't informed about it upon check-in. I had to repeatedly confirm myself to find out it was actually free. Overall, the service still feels like most state-owned hotels from 10 years ago. In today's highly competitive market, this is clearly not enough.
