Novotel Qiandao Lake

Hotel is in a good location near the lake and docks for boat trips. It has a good sized pool but limited sun loungers. There’s a bit of building work going on around which disrupts the views and makes it noisy. We booked a lake view room but couldn’t see the lake because of the work going on. They did upgrade us to the executive suite which was very large. The problem was the AC was weak making the room warm and there’d been a water leak causing a stain on the ceiling. I’d not be happy if I paid for the room but the upgrade allowed us a great lake view. The breakfast is good if you like Chinese style food but not very western. Overall I’d stay again but choose a different room as the benefit is the location and the good sized pool.

Very nice hotel and very clean. Close enough to a street food. The breakfast is amazing and the price honest. Recommended

The hotel looks very good and new . The hotel staff is very friendly and helpful. The location of the hotel is perfect close to shops , restaurants and lake .

Great stay at a clean, friendly hotel, excellent soft play for kids. Nice buffet breakfast. Highly recommended!

Family with mouth to Qiandao Lake travel, play three days to find the Novotel hotel Qiandao Lake, choose this hotel is not wrong, very beautiful swimming pool, and children's playground free play, children play, if not to go back to school are not willing to check out. I will come again next time, thanks to the warm service of the front desk and the beautiful sisters in the room. lt feels like home.

It is a merely 3 years old hotel but everything looks pretty worn. The swimming pool is nice but not as nice as on photos. The kids indoor playground is nice for kids under 5. But for the rest, it is not really worth the 5 star. The room design is rather weird. We booked a superior family room with 1 queen bed and 1 single. The size is okay with a balcony. But there is only 1 chair on the balcony. The toilet is facing the bed directly and the shower as well. There is no any privacy for the guests sharing the room. Even with your own child, you deserve some privacy I suppose. The wash table is right next to the bed which is also weird. The overall design is not well thought to my opinion. The breakfast hall is huge but the quality of the food is disappointing (not the worst but definitely not best for a 5 star). The lady standing in front of the breakfast hall for welcoming the guests is always grumpy. The price is too high for what you get in general. But anyway, the island is way too pricy for what it can offer. Will not return any time soon. And the toilet in our room stinks a little.
