Where to stay in Dalian
Dalian hotels & accommodations
Have tried a number of hotels in Dalian on business trips there, and found Nikko to be right up there with the others. Less expensive than Furama/Shangri-la (but in a similar location) and easier to book a room (and cheaper) than the Kempinski/Swish, I found everything to be great. Room was substantially larger and better-appointed than at the Swish, while also about 1...
Our stay at the Swissotel in Dalian were fantastic.

If you've stayed in other international hotels in this price range in Dalian, the breakfast here is really pretty underwhelming. Housekeeping ends at 6 PM and air condition during this time ain't turned on for warmer temperatures, which made it quite uncomfortable when the sun was heating up the entire room. Water pressure and kitchenette was good. With a mall connect...
The best deal of all the hotels in Kaifaqu, Dalian, China?

We booked this hotel purely for its proximity to the airport to recover from our long flight from Australia via Guangzhou. Room was comfortable although when having a shower the whole bathroom area gets wet due to open shower area. Breakfast was good.
The room is big, comfortable and clean. Staffs are nice and helpful. The Japanese restaurant is worth to go; the food is fresh and delicious with reasonable price.

Great location near the beach, lovely view out to the beach and the montain. The breakfast was also very nice. I Like to have kettle in the room. The room was clean.
continuing to put other dalian hotels to shame, harbour plaza offers a spacious room (~40 SQM) for a rock bottom price. ok so all the furniture is from ikea and the floorboards get a bit cold in the winter, at least the bathroom fixtures are toto! i recently had a client up in dalian. he chose to stay at the shangri-la. i was happy for him to do so, as it's only a 5 m...

The hotel was good and has good cost performance, but if you have to do anything in Dalian city, you should consider other hotels in Dalian. It was located in other state next to Dalian. It took about 30 min by train. It also took approximately 15 min from the train station by taxi.
How are we supposed to eat breakfast if our flight is at 8am? Too far from airport and no shuttle We had to stand out in the rain and get a taxi on the street.
About 20 mins by walk from Railway Station, of course, you were also able to get on bus No. 3, which was 3 stops. Got off at "Gong An Ju" stop. It was near to the business center. To room itself, it was clean, nice staff service, low deposit "20 Yuan RMB" when accommodated. but, but, but, Sound insulation in room was too bad, I was waken up by a women happy groan fro...
The hotel staff was very helpful. Unfortunately, the travel agency (within the hotel) was either dishonest or uninformed. Plan accordingly.
It is lacated in good location and combineit to go around the city. Facilities is good and clean.
Very close to Heping shopping mall which is convenient both for dinning and transportation.

I stayed here for one night because I had a train out of Dalian North the next morning. It is clean, comfortable, and great value for the money. The staff also do an excellent job, especially considering they do not speak English. They were very helpful even though we could not really use language to communicate. The only downside is it is far from the city center. T...
I reserved there through AGODA and paid. But I rejected with no reason and couldn't stay. I have been so frustrated. Even I coudn't know how to calcel and refund. However, AGODA sent me email about assessment..^^ I am soso angry now. I can't stand to blame this hotel and AGODA. You must solve this problem and compensate it for me.

Hotel is nice, clean and in a good location. However, many of the front desk staff can't understand simple English questions relating to the hotel and Dalian. Probably wouldn't stay there again.
My family stayed in the hotel during the Chinese New Year. The staff was very nice and gave us an upgrade when we checked in. They also assisted us to change to a different room when we complained about the smell of cigarette smoking. Breakfast was very Chinese and worked for American-Chinese like me, but not for an American like my husband. The hotel is close to ...

This hotel is located in a beautiful national park. The hotel is enormous with a great spa. Sadly when checking in they could not find my booking. After 30 min the general manager arrived and solved the problem. When checking out the staff refused to book a taxi but just gave me a number to a taxi company. Not very helpful.
Wonderful hotel with lots of restaurants and pub just downstairs. Hotel very nice and clean with comfy beds and furniture.
