4-Star Hotels in Dalian

A good hotel is key to a successful trip! This hotel is very close to Xinghai Square, and across the bridge is an amusement park. The paths are flat, perfect for strollers or 'baby walkers' (though the area right outside the hotel entrance has cobblestones, which can be a bit bumpy for strollers). The room environment is excellent. We are a family of five – four adults and one child – and stayed in the 'Star Blue' room, which was perfectly spacious. It had a 1.8m bed downstairs plus a tatami mat upstairs, and even a single sofa that could be used for sleeping. The space felt generous. There's also a private little courtyard where you can hang kids' clothes to dry (as long as it's not raining). The hotel has a laundry room with a dryer, so no more bringing dirty clothes home!

I'd stayed at an Atour 3.5 in Qingdao before, so when I saw this new Atour 4.0 opening in Dalian in 2025, and it was close to Dongguan Street, I booked it well in advance, thinking Atour's service is always great for a trip. I had high expectations, but the actual stay was a bit disappointing. 1. I booked a room without breakfast. Last year, during the off-peak season in September at the Qingdao branch, they directly offered complimentary daily breakfast for two throughout my stay, which was a great experience. This hotel only offered one day of complimentary breakfast for two. I tried the coffee machine in the public area downstairs both morning and evening, but for three consecutive days, there was no milk, so I couldn't make coffee properly. The self-service beverage experience was poor. 2. The room hardware was brand new, and basic cleanliness was acceptable. However, there's still a lot of room for improvement in the maintenance of public facilities and service details. The cleaning staff came daily during my stay and did clear the trash, but they only re-made the bed simply, and visible hair on the bed wasn't cleaned. 3. The soundproofing in the room was poor; I could clearly hear noise from next door. On the last night of my stay, the TV inexplicably turned on by itself in the middle of the night for some unknown reason, severely impacting my sleep experience.

Choosing this hotel for our Dalian trip was absolutely the right decision! ✨ The location is excellent, very close to the beach, perfect for a leisurely stroll and enjoying the sea breeze. The room's cleanliness was top-notch; even the corners were spotless, making our stay comfortable and reassuring. The staff were friendly and their service was meticulous, always ready to help with any issues we had. The breakfast buffet offered a wide variety of options and tasted great. Overall, our stay was fantastic, and I'll definitely prioritize this hotel again on my next visit to Dalian.

Enjoyed staying here at this new hotel. Staff is very friendly and professional. Will be back soon.

Our second stop on the trip was Xinghai Square, and our room's window faced the square directly. There were restaurants right downstairs. The room wasn't huge, but it was clean and tidy, and the facilities were relatively new. The front desk staff were very friendly and helpful, and they even had a robot to deliver items. The hotel had a unique Qingqiu Fox theme, which was quite special. The only downside was that the road leading to the hotel entrance was under renovation, and there was a strong smell of garbage, which wasn't a great first impression. Oh, and one more thing, the sauce in the rice noodles for breakfast was incredibly salty; they really need to improve that!

I came to Dalian this time for a football match. I hadn't stayed at this hotel before, but after this visit, it completely exceeded my expectations! First off, the location is on par with hotels like Orange and Atour, but the price is competitive and the service is just as good, if not better! Secondly, the hygiene is excellent, and the cleaning staff are very polite and helpful. The front desk staff were patient and well-mannered, even reminding me that the mini-fridge drinks were complimentary. Although I didn't drink any, it shows their attention to detail and service awareness! My comment about it exceeding expectations isn't just talk; usually, you get what you pay for, but this place offers a service experience that goes beyond its price point.

Choosing the Roosevelt Atour Hotel for our family road trip was such a smart decision! The hotel has its own free underground parking, and the parking process is straightforward, which was a huge relief when traveling with lots of luggage. The location is perfect for a family vacation, with Xinghai Square and the Oceanarium just a short drive away. There are also plenty of supermarkets and snack bars nearby, making it super convenient to grab snacks or late-night bites. The room was clean and odor-free, the bedding was comfortable, and the soundproofing was excellent, so our kids weren't disturbed while resting. The hotel amenities are thoughtful, with self-service washing machines and dryers, perfect for cleaning clothes after a day at the beach. The 24-hour bookstore is quiet and a great place for kids to relax and read. The staff were enthusiastic and patient, and check-in was quick. The overall environment is quiet and cozy, offering incredible value for money. We'll definitely choose to stay here again on our next trip to Dalian.

# Dalian Sishi Jingyu Beach Resort Hotel Overall Experience: ★★★★☆ (4/5) A very enjoyable stay with an unbeatable beachfront location and breathtaking ocean views. Location:★★★★★ * Excellent beachfront setting with stunning ocean views. * Waking up and stepping onto the balcony felt like being right on the beach. Room:★★★★☆ * Modern, stylish décor and a pleasant atmosphere. I love the use of wood and the natural look.  * Cleanliness could be improved, especially considering the premium room rate. Balcony:★★★☆☆ * Amazing sea views. * Limited shelter made it difficult to relax or enjoy meals because of birds. * Outdoor furniture was uncomfortable, with hard chairs and a basic table. Breakfast:★★☆☆☆ * The hotel advertises both Western and Chinese breakfast options; however, the Western selection was very limited. * Coffee was not available during breakfast, which was disappointing for an international resort. * Guests with dietary requirements, such as those who do not eat pork, may find the buffet quite limited, with few suitable alternatives. Dining:★★★☆☆ * Hotel restaurants and bar offered a nice atmosphere. * Food and drinks were expensive for the portion sizes and overall value. * Ordering through ******* or dining outside the hotel provides better value. Activities & Beach Facilities:★★★☆☆ * The beachfront location is beautiful and has great potential for guest activities. * It would be a wonderful addition if the resort included complimentary paddle boats, beach games, balls, sand toys, or other recreational equipment for guests. * Most activities required an additional fee, and there were very few free entertainment options available for families or guests wanting to enjoy the beach. Value for Money:★★★☆☆ * The spectacular location justifies part of the cost, but improvements in cleanliness, balcony comfort, breakfast variety, complimentary beach activities, and dining value would greatly enhance the overall guest experience. Would I Recommend It?✔️ Yes The breathtaking beachfront location and incredible views make this hotel worth considering. With a few improvements in comfort, cleanliness, breakfast options, complimentary recreational activities, and pricing, it would provide an even better guest experience.

The hotel exceeded my expectations! The lobby has a elegant and comfortable ambiance, with complimentary herbal tea always available, making it a very pleasant place to relax. The room was clean and bright, equipped with comprehensive smart facilities. The lighting and air conditioning could be controlled with a single touch, which is a godsend for lazy people. The cleanliness was meticulous, and the service was warm and attentive. Plus, the surrounding transportation is convenient, and it offers great value for money. I highly recommend staying here!

The hotel is conveniently close to the airport, which is great for catching flights. They offer a shuttle service; just contact the front desk in advance and they'll drop you off. If you prefer to walk, it's only about a ten-minute stroll.
