The hotel is in a very good location, with a large lawn and flowers in the front yard, which is very convenient for eating, drinking and playing. It is very pet-friendly and free of charge. The hotel is large and old, with many rooms, and the quilts are soft and comfortable to sleep.

The room was comfortable and big enough. The building is really magnificent and the location is right in the city center. But there are too many rooms in the hotel and too many corridors. I always couldn't find my room.

The only regret is that I paid 80 Canadian dollars more, but the hotel gave me a room that was far away and had a sea view. Other things were good, but the hotel was a bit old. I stayed at the Fairmont in Yangcheng Lake before and thought it was great, but the ones abroad are still a bit old.

I’ve always wanted to stay at this iconic hotel. The room was comfy and the staff was friendly. Of course the location is pefect. I had to walk a long way down 3-4 hallways to get to my room which I thought was to get to my lovely “city view” room but no. My “view” was into other rooms.

The facilities and services are very good! The only drawback is that the room is too close to the restaurant and a bit noisy.
