South China Hotel

Great location. However we only realized there are beach loungers available for guest use at the beach right in front of the hotel. No staff checked to ensure these are used by hotel guests though. Need to be early to find an available lounger.

Stayed in this hotel in October 2024. It was an amazing stay! I would like to say thank you to Judy and Lily at the reception. They were very kind and leveled up our room category for free, so we were living in a luxury sea view room on the 4th floor! Also, this hotel has a perfect location near the sea and beach, but far from the night bars and restaurants with loud music. There are lots of cheap cafés, fruit stores and souvenir shops nearby. Definitely recommend South China hotel to everybody who travel to Hainan!

Nice hotel in a good location. It allows smoking, so if you're a non-smoker, make sure you book a non-smoking room. We had the buffet dinner one night, and it was OK. There was a lot of seafood on the buffet (I'm not a seafood eater, but there was still plenty to enjoy). The hotel definitely targets the Russian guest. One of the Service Desk staff spoke English, so that was helpful. The only downside was the open air markets that were set up for Chinese New Year in the park across from the hotel - live band playing loud music until 11pm. Earplugs were necessary.

Location is the best for Dadonghai, breakfast is pretty good for Chinese hotels. The hotel has own beach but they don’t provide beach towels

I’m sorry, that my comment is in English, but I’m very glad, that my family was staying in South China hotel! And we are thankful to the hotel staff, who helped us with every question. And special gratitude to Sophie, who was extra polite and kind to us 🤗 The hotel room was clean, had a lot of free space for family, good view from the window, calm and quiet environment. Swimming pool - great 👍🏻. The location is comfortable too: you can go to the pineapple mall (it’s very close), to the beach (the hotel has it’s own chaise lounges there), to the bund (in the evening it’s nice to walk there), and etc. If you want to live comfortably and not too far from the civilization, this place is perfect!

I am writing an honest review. I travel alone and many things in hotels are important to me. Upon arrival, the hotel went to meet me and checked in before the appointed time; upon check-in, I did not like the view from the window, I immediately changed the room without any problems, every day after the sea I returned to a clean room. I would like to express special thanks to the staff, I could always ask for help and they were happy to help. I didn't feel alone in this hotel. Especially thanks Nancy, she is a very attentive and friendly employee!
