5-Star Hotels in Tianjin

I rarely write lengthy hotel reviews online, but this time, the Hyatt Centric Tianjin Nanzhan genuinely exceeded my expectations. It's a hidden gem, a niche luxury hotel near Tianjin South Railway Station, and I couldn't just leave a short, perfunctory good review. I chose this place purely for its convenient location near Tianjin South Railway Station; it’s only about a ten-minute walk to the high-speed train station. If you're driving, there's free underground parking, and they even have charging spots for new energy vehicles, making it perfect for business commutes or short trips. The hotel just opened in 2024, so all the facilities are brand new and pristine. The lobby boasts a low-saturation modern design without being overly flashy. The warm, brown soft furnishings paired with artistic decor create a quiet and serene atmosphere, avoiding the hustle and bustle of downtown chain hotels. Those who appreciate peace and quiet will particularly love this relaxed vibe. Even the basic room type I booked was nearly 40 square meters. The high-floor panoramic floor-to-ceiling window was the biggest surprise; in the evening, you get a full view of the entire South Station cityscape, and the golden hour light filling the room was incredibly soothing. The room layout is clearly defined, with a lounge sofa, a separate workspace, and a sleeping area that don't intrude on each other. Little touches like electric curtains and entry-sensing lights were a big plus. The bathroom's wet and dry separation is excellent, featuring an extra-large built-in bathtub, a Laifen hairdryer, and two TOTO smart toilets. The toiletries have a subtle, sophisticated scent, and soaking in the tub instantly melts away travel fatigue. The most unexpected delight was that the mini-bar items were all complimentary, replenished daily with Beibingyang soda, Coca-Cola, and mineral water, along with an exquisite welcome fruit platter. No hidden costs really earned my full appreciation. The soundproofing far surpassed expectations; I couldn't hear any high-speed trains passing by downstairs. The mattress was medium-firm, and there were both soft and firm pillows, ensuring a peaceful and undisturbed night's sleep. I must mention the facilities on the 19th-floor high-altitude area. The heated indoor pool had clean water and was rarely crowded, with a 25-meter standard lane, and a sauna after a swim. The gym had all imported Life Fitness equipment, and the large floor-to-ceiling windows offered an expansive view during workouts; exercising in the morning while watching the city slowly awaken was particularly refreshing. Breakfast was in a separate dining area, so no sharing with neighboring hotels. It offered a balanced mix of Chinese and Western options, with local grain dishes, freshly cooked noodles, Western pastries, and fresh-cut fruits – all fresh and well-prepared. Silvia at the front desk provided gentle and meticulous service. Check-in was efficient, and she proactively informed me about all the complimentary benefits, even giving me a buy-one-get-one-free drink voucher for the lobby lounge. When I needed something late at night, the robot delivery service was incredibly responsive. The entire hotel isn't overly commercialized; it's understated yet tasteful, unlike 'influencer' hotels teeming with noisy crowds. It's more suited for travelers seeking comfort, quiet, and great value for money. For layovers at Tianjin South Railway Station or short stays in Tianjin, this place is definitely my top secret pick. I will certainly choose Hyatt Centric again on my next trip to and from Tianjin.

This hotel offers top-notch service, stemming from its past as the Sheraton Tianjin Hotel, so the staff's training has a solid Sheraton foundation. They are incredibly responsive to every request. I always stay here whenever I'm in Tianjin because the hotel consistently lives up to my high expectations, never letting me down. The environment is arguably the quietest in Tianjin. The bar stays open quite late, so after checking in, you can enjoy a cold beer and savor the tranquility amidst the bustling city. The front desk staff, from the employees to the lobby manager, are all very warm and provide excellent service. They specially treated my room to be smoke-free, and the duvet thickness was perfectly tailored to my needs (I tend to get hot easily), which was very thoughtful and attentive. The housekeeping department even turned on the air conditioning before my arrival, ensuring a perfectly comfortable temperature. I highly recommend everyone to stay at Yan Yuan Hotel and have a wonderful time.

Among all Ritz-Carlton hotels in China, this one offers exceptional value for money. The entire red-brick castle building exudes an incredible ambiance, with a retro European-style lobby featuring black and white marble floors, gilded carvings, blue and white porcelain, and classical oil paintings. Every detail is picture-perfect. **Rooms**: The rooms are spacious and open, with exquisite and tasteful retro furnishings. The bedding is soft and skin-friendly, incredibly relaxing to lie on, ensuring a comfortable rest. **Breakfast**: The selection is incredibly rich, offering a full range of Chinese and Western options, along with authentic local Tianjin snacks. **Service**: Maintaining the Ritz-Carlton's consistent standard of meticulous and thoughtful service, the staff are polite and discreet, responding promptly to requests, making for a very pleasant experience. ⚠️ **Minor Flaw (a clear shortcoming during this stay)**: The hotel's control over non-guest foot traffic is insufficient. During a concert period, a large number of fans gathered and waited outside the restaurant during breakfast hours, creating a noticeable noise disturbance. This significantly compromised guest privacy and dining experience. I hope the hotel will strengthen its management of external visitors during large-scale events.

My 60-year-old parents and their 6-year-old grandchild took a road trip to Tianjin and were extremely satisfied with their stay at your hotel. They helped us order takeout, provided travel route suggestions, and I heard the child even received a gift, which we really appreciate. The room was also clean and tidy. We were so impressed with the staff's excellent service that we specifically asked for her name – it's Zhao Man, the Reservations Manager. Many thanks!

We chose the Four Seasons Hotel Tianjin for our trip to Tianjin, and its biggest advantage is its location. Situated in the city center, it's very convenient for getting around, making it easy to reach major attractions and restaurants by taxi. The concierge and front desk service maintained the Four Seasons' usual standard – polite and responsive. However, the entire surrounding area was under construction, which was a very poor experience. The outside of the hotel was very dusty. The room itself was spacious, and there was a good selection of pillows, making for a comfortable rest. The high-floor, floor-to-ceiling windows offered an expansive view overlooking the city. The sky-lit pool on the 9th floor was very photogenic, and the gym was well-equipped, although the equipment was old and showing its age. The cleanliness there was just 'so-so', not as good as many other hotels. We didn't book a room including breakfast, so I can't comment on that. There are a few other real observations from our stay that I want to mention. The hotel has been open for some years, and some areas show wear and tear. The metal fixtures had water stains, and the room light switch labels weren't very clear. The carpet was visibly dirty. If this were your first time staying at a Four Seasons, you would seriously question if this is really a Four Seasons? No wonder some people say this is the worst Four Seasons hotel in the country. Overall, it's a hotel with a relatively good location, but it doesn't really live up to the 'luxury' label, especially since the price was only just over a thousand yuan. If you're particular about brand-new renovations and seeking pristine hardware, you might be a little disappointed.

The location is great and the service is good. However, the hotel facilities are quite old. The drain next to the bathtub was really bad, causing a huge flood. The rooftop bar also felt a bit dated and the drinks weren't good. The room itself was quite spacious, but the air conditioning didn't work. The hotel price wasn't expensive, so the value for money is decent. At first glance, the room seemed okay, but the details couldn't stand up to scrutiny. I guess it's understandable though, many hotels in Tianjin are quite old.

Came to Tianjin National Convention and Exhibition Center for a competition and stayed at the Marriott – absolutely fantastic! It was hot, but getting from the hotel to the exhibition center was super easy thanks to the connecting corridor. The area around the hotel is quite remote, but I booked a room with executive lounge access. After checking in at 1 PM, I spent the rest of the day at the hotel. We had afternoon tea in the executive lounge while the kids did their homework; dinner was practically a buffet; and then a swim in the evening – absolutely wonderful!

I highly recommend the Crowne Plaza. The hotel is modern, clean, and upscale, with a very comfortable atmosphere. Everything from the lobby to the rooms felt well-maintained and high quality. I also had the breakfast buffet and was very pleased with the variety and quality of the food. The service was professional, and the overall experience felt luxurious without being overwhelming. If you’re looking for a comfortable and upscale stay, Crowne Plaza is an excellent choice.

Highly recommend this hotel! The front desk service was absolutely fantastic. They proactively helped with our luggage, and the staff member had a very warm smile. She even arranged the room we preferred. The room itself was clean, hygienic, comfortable, and very quiet. The housekeeping staff was incredibly thoughtful, offering extra bottles of water without us even asking. The breakfast spread was excellent, with both Western and Chinese options, including freshly made Tianjin specialties. The concierge, a lovely young lady, had a sweet smile and was very helpful. Overall, it was a truly satisfying trip. The hotel also has great scenery. Definitely recommended, especially perfect for spring!

Honestly, just so confused as to why this place is called a 5-star. It is most certainly not 5- star. The room and the bathroom weren’t even squeaky clean. The bathroom had all these dirt marks along the shower and the toilet. The hotel is sold to have a pool, but the pool is actually a public pool that was just full of kids. It was also said that the breakfast is western. Western? I don’t understand what they’re referring to because the breakfast we had was very much Chinese. If I’m eating rice and chicken curry at breakfast that is not western. There wasn’t even any cereal, the most basic form of western breakfast. The whole place is just doing too much, there’s a convention room, some shops etc all at one place. The meal area looked like a high school canteen. There was absolutely nothing 5-star about this hotel. Honestly, if you are expecting 5-star, DO NOT go to this hotel. The only good this is the staff were nice.
