There is a lot more to Xiamen than Gulangyu Island and shopping in Zhong Shan Road. However if these 2 are must-do's then Lujiang Hotel is well-located. The ferry piers to Gulangyu are just across the road....and just around the corner is shoppers' paradise. The staff are good specially the concierge guys. We like the upgraded room facilities. We do... More

Just returned from 6 days stay at the hotel (Mar 2012). It is indeed a short walk to two great pedestrian shopping and eating streets namely, Chonghua and Dadong. It is also near the ferry terminal to Gulanyu. Public transport for both taxi and buses are easy too. The rooms are in different levels of setting with the sea-facing commanding... More

I fully agree with what my predecessors said. On the river, with view to Gulangyu, next to the walking street. Accessable by the Airport Express Bus for 10 RMB. Take Bus no. 19 (1 RMB) for the Xiamen Exhibition Center and the beaches facing to Jinmen islands. More

This hotel has a great location; right on the water front at the end of the pedestrian shopping street. Our guide advises that it has been recently renovated and it looks and feels new. Our room is big with a writing desk complete with a laptop provided with free internet access. It has a two-seater lounge, king size comfortable bed,... More

After some bad experiences in so-called 4 star hotels in Fujian province we stayed the last night at Lujiang Harbourview Hotel and it was the only one which met our expectations: had a reasonable priced (in comparison to all the others) suite overlooking Gulanyu, spacious and clean, good service, very good breakfast (in fact the only one out of 5...

The purpose of my trip to Xiamen was the wedding of Chinese friends. They reserved my hotel on Gulanyu island, Flora inn hotel, which I posted on. We spent 2 diners and 1 lunch in the Lujiang restaurant, which is also a hotel. The restaurant on top floor terrace has a magnificient view on the gulanyu island. The food is... More

Very disappointed with the Lujiang Hotel we saw at our previous stay. We had stayed here years before when they didn't have their renovation yet and frankly, it was better before. They offered us two kinds of rooms, a more expensive "harbor view" and a cheaper " city view" room. Being that it was late already, we decided to go... More

Having booked the nearby Wyndham Hotel for our first and last nights in Xiamen (in between, we were in Quanzhou for 2 nights), I was impressed by the great location of this Lujiang Harbourview Hotel when we were doing our shopping in Zhongsan Lu. My mum who is in her 70's, was complaining about the 7-8 minutes walk to the... More

Location unbeatable facing Gulangyu and opposite ferry terminal. It's at the cross road of Zhongshan Lu (shopping street) so food and shopping are everywhere. Check in was not pleasant because reservation could not be found. Reason was I arrived later than expected time of 11am - 2pm. I arrived at 4pm. Expected the hotel to have at least called or... More
