Meilin Holiday Hotel

This is really a very nice hotel, unexpected in a relatively small town. The room looks new and is very comfortable. I especially liked the cosy seating area near the window. Staff was exceptionally friendly as well. The immediate surroundings of the hotel are not very interesting, but the location is very convenient nonetheless: walking distance (20-30 minutes) to Qilou Old Street, only 2 bus stops away from the train station and also close to local buses to tourist areas such as Tonggu Ridge (though I've read not all sites there are open to foreigners, I mainly wanted to see Gusong fishing village and that's no problem) and Gaolong Bay. The only area of improvement is that this hotel has a tendency to keep calling customers before their stay (3 times I got an SMS in Chinese saying something like "Meilin Hotel is going to call you, please pick up", followed by a call from an unknown number). I can communicate in simple Chinese but am not great at doing phone calls in Chinese and in any case I hate this kind of insistent phone calls. I didn't pick up but after the second call checked with Trip.com what was wrong, expecting some major problem. It turned out the hotel just wanted to confirm a small change I had made to my booking, which had already been confirmed in the app anyway... While this attitude is perhaps meant as service, I perceived it as annoying and superfluous and I would strongly suggest the hotel stops harassing customers with phone calls unless there's a real emergency. Having said this, the staff on site in the hotel was exceptionally friendly and polite; this is one of the few hotels in China where staff members actually greeted me when I walked past reception, which was much appreciated! I definitely recommend this hotel and would stay here again if I ever visited Wenchang again.

Nice, clean and quiet place. Good enough for the next time

Newly renovated hotel; super clean; excellent staff; absolutely the best service I have encountered in my lifetime of travel; 86 inch TV provides a theater environment in our room; USB outlet and cable all make this place the best hotel to stay. Its free Hainan coffee is so much better than Luckin and Starbucks. This is definitely THE PLACE to stay in WengChang.

A highly recommended place to stay. Friendly staff, everyone was so nice and helpful, always smiling 😃

ALL GOOD ROOM WAS CLEAN

再次入住美林，這次帶父母來海南。床品很舒服，熱水很大。洗頭舒服。老爸老媽表示滿意，就被子稍稍有點厚，其他都很好。去周圍的飯店吃飯也很近，酒店推薦的老爸茶、湘菜也好吃。服務員們都很熱情，微笑服務，還幫我老爸拉行李，諮詢附近景點，賓至如歸。酒店離開高鐵站比較近2公里多，打網約車方便。
