Was recommended this Hotel by a colleauge/friend. Location is directly opposite 1st Wharf, with access to Ferries and Bus/Metro. Literally cross the road and walk 50m to access transport. Easy walking to Park, Mall and Markets. I ate out in the street mall resturants for dinner, had breakfast at the hotel and there was plenty to select from.
I made an error in booking 3 nights, instead of 2. Called Hotel as soon as I was aware (about 6 hours after booking) to inform them. Hotel staff supported my situation with Trip.com and I have recieved a refund. Website said a pool, but i didnt find one, gym a bit sparse, and coffee at breakfast was like packet milk coffee with 2 sugars - too sweet for me, and I drink it black. Otherwise a 5/5 stay!
Response from Property: Dear guest, thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to give us a positive review. Your recognition is the most prestigious gift you can give us. Please allow me to introduce myself again so that you can have a deeper understanding of me (^ _ -). The Harbour Hotel is a four-star standard hotel with a unique location, facing Gulangyu Island across the sea, making it convenient and fast to go anywhere. The hotel is located on Lujiang Road in Siming District, Xiamen City, only 100 meters away from Gulangyu Pier, a world cultural heritage site. It is only a 6-minute walk from Xiamen's most bustling eight cities, a 16 minute walk from Zhongshan Road, a commercial street, and a 10 minute drive to Xiamen University and Nanputuo Gulangyu Island. The internet famous Haiwan Park is my 200 meter neighbor. In addition, the hotel has more than 50 ground parking spaces, making parking convenient.

I walked in to book the hotel for my personal trip visiting Xiamen. The front desk was nice and patience to guide me through online booking with discounts. Room and shower are clean. Pretty close to No.8 market with walking distance. Will come back again for the next stay.
Response from Property: It‘s our pleasure. Thank you for your recognition. Welcome to Xiamen again

Amazing location! The service and the room are very basic. Not luxuries but the location is next to the bus/train station. Highly recommend staying here if you like to use public transportation.

Overall the stay was comfortable and the check in/out process was smooth. The suite was spacious enough however, the tv remote control seems to be not working but small issue since I was not watching tv. Would be better if there are more choices of complimentary tea, coffee and sugar packets in the suite.

Good stay. The view from the room was beautiful overlooking the harbor. There’s a bus station right in front of the hotel. The subway is a bit of a walk, but the commercial street is within a reasonable distance.

I just wanted to go out and relax. I chose this hotel. The location is very convenient. It is relatively convenient to go anywhere. The pier, botanical garden and Gulangyu Island are opposite. The scenery is very good. The service is also very good. The hygiene is good. Xiamen BRT rapid bus is very powerful and fast. I will choose to stay here next time

The hotel is in a great location, only 100 meters away from the pier to Gulangyu Island. It is clean and hygienic, with complete facilities and convenient transportation. You can also see the sea. The breakfast has many varieties and tastes good. The front desk service attitude is also good. It is worth recommending.

The location is excellent, just across the street is Pier 1, where you can take a boat to Gulangyu Island. The front desk service is good, and the room is clean and tidy. The parking lot for self-driving cars is OK, and there is a dedicated person to arrange and manage it. The surrounding environment is a little bad because there is a construction site.

The service is very good and the room is clean. It is very close to Gulangyu Island, and it is very convenient to travel. There is a road leading directly to Zhongshan Road. The night view is beautiful. I can only write this much because I am not good at writing…
