Addicted to staying in hotels (Part) Fairy Tale World 'Yifang Castle'

This trip to Dalian, I chose to stay in the most representative Yifang Castle Hotel in Dalian (originally under Marriott), the hotel is located in the golden area of Dalian city center - next to Xinghai Square, it is a five-star super luxury hotel with European architectural style as the main theme. Before checking in, I received a phone call from the butler Kevin (Chen) who was in charge of the day, asking about some check-in needs, very responsible yo (5-star praise), after checking in, the butler also gave us welcome fruit and Evian bubble water (love yo!), the sea view room we stayed in also has a great view, the sunset is beautiful, directly facing the sea-crossing bridge! The main body of the hotel is a Bavarian castle building, which is a landmark building in Dalian city, adjacent to Xinghai Bay, and also the starting point of the famous coastal road. The magnificent exterior and the sky garden on the fifth floor are must-visit places in Dalian, I suggest you must choose a sunny afternoon to take pictures, super photogenic!

Castle Hotel is the best in Dalian🏯

Address - A friend booked me into this hotel at No. 600 Binhai West Road, Shahekou District, Dalian and I could swear I was in heaven. Ambiance/Facilities - The hotel was true to it's name in terms of looks, service and food. My family always looks forward to three things at a hotel: a general getting of luxury at a hotel (without the high price), exotic bathroom with a variety of vanity items, and a good buffet breakfast 🥞🍳. Our expectations were funny met 💃💃. The buffet menu was wide and varied and catered to both Western and Chinese tastes. There were many options for the kids as well such as yogurt, fries, and spring rolls. Highlights - The highlight for me was that the hotel was conveniently located in Downtown Dalian near many different areas of interest. There was an #amusementpark walking distance away called #yifengcastleamusementpark and within a 30 minute drive there was a wharf where we went on a boat ride and fed seagulls as they flew past the boat. We also went to a huge amusement park with roller coaster 🎢 about 1600ft away, and next door to it we went on a cable car 🚠🚡 to get a view of the city. PS. How could I forget the buffet hotpot restaurant on the #olympia66 mall choose by? It was amazing. Rating - definitely a ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ star hotel and surrounding environment. Definitely worth it. #castle #hotelstay #luxuryhotel #dalian

Sleep in a Dalian landmark

You can’t miss this hotel when staying in Dalian, it is a huge landmark on the coastline. It resembles a medieval European castle but actually is less than 10 years old. We stayed for 2 night in August and before arriving I was skeptical if it was worth the price tag. However, we enjoyed every moment at the hotel and it certainly was worth the money. The hotel is managed and owned by the Marriott group so the service was excellent and the rooms we were well designed. The rooms are really big and lost have excellent views of the sea. The bathroom is huge too with a freestanding bath. The hotel can truest make you feel like a prince or a princess for the weekend, much more so than the Shanghai Disney Hotel. #staycation

This is China's Swan Castle, not abroad but in Dalian!!!

Dalian Luxury Hotel🏰🏰 🌊🌊🌊The heatwave of summer is sweeping in, are you longing for a cool trip? The Dalian Castle Luxury Collection Hotel is located on Lotus Mountain, overlooking Xinghai Bay and the Yellow Sea, and is a landmark building in Dalian. The overall area covers 48,800 square meters, with a building area of 80,000 square meters above ground. The original intention of building the castle was not to serve as a hotel. Since its completion in 2002, only a small part of it has been used as a shell exhibition hall, with the remaining space being idle. In order to revitalize the assets, the municipal government initiated a castle renovation plan in 2007, transforming the castle into a super five-star hotel. Since the original internal structure of the castle did not meet the requirements of a super five-star hotel, with varying room sizes and building heights, it was necessary to rebuild the existing structure. The municipal government's requirement for the renovated castle was to build on the existing style and create an even more magnificent and spectacular castle hotel, becoming a signature project. In October 2009, Dalian Yifang Group won the development and operation rights. To ensure that the castle hotel was built to international luxury hotel standards, the owner spent 85 million yuan to invite the world's top-ranked American WATG design firm's famous designer Thomas Fo to lead the architectural design. WATG has designed over 100 landmark hotel buildings worldwide, including The Venetian in Las Vegas, Caesars Palace, and the Sun City Hotel in South Africa. At the same time, core members of the world's renowned hotel interior design firm HBA, famous landscape design company Lifescape from the USA, MEP consulting firm BPI from the USA, and lighting consulting firm BPI, among other top international professional design companies, took on the other design work for the castle hotel. It must be said that at that time, it was really easy to earn money from domestic owners. Although Yifang Group signed a full management agreement with Starwood Hotels & Resorts, which manages the most luxury hotels in the world, they chose to use Starwood's luxury soft brand - The Luxury Collection. To be fair, with such investment, design, and product positioning, it would have been more suitable to use the 'St. Regis' brand. However, there was too much asymmetry of information between the management company's brand development strategy and the owner company's investment and operation needs, leading to frequent cases of owners being misled. Before this, the brand had only four hotels in Tianjin, Sanya, and Shanghai in China. On September 19, 2014, after five years of reconstruction and a total investment of 2.4 billion RMB, the Dalian Yifang Castle Luxury Collection Hotel grandly opened. It is the largest castle-themed hotel in Asia, with a total of 292 rooms and suites, starting from 60 square meters, and also offers 67 apartments. From the total investment in the hotel, it is clear that the owner does not prioritize a quick return on investment through hotel operations. The owner also stated that the construction of this hotel was mainly to leave a legacy in Dalian, and also for himself, a building that can be passed down. Truly, in the face of sentiment, money is no object. Today, I recommend a fairy tale world hidden in the city! 🏰 Located in the center of Dalian, with convenient transportation, whether you drive yourself or use public transport, it is very convenient. Stepping into the hotel, it's like traveling back to a medieval European castle🏰 Exquisite murals, gorgeous chandeliers, and elegant decorations make you feel as if you are in romantic Europe. ☀ 🏊🏻 Staying at the hotel, you can enjoy the swimming pool and water entertainment projects for free, cooling off your summer! There is also a children's pool and playground that kids love, making family travel stress-free! The rooms are fully equipped with large-screen TVs, high-speed internet, private bathrooms, mini-bars, and more, and also provide disposable toiletries and towels, with great attention to quality and detail. 🍞 The hotel also offers breakfast service, with a rich variety and fresh taste. Whether it's Chinese or Western breakfast, it can satisfy your taste buds. There are also many gourmet restaurants and shopping centers nearby, making shopping very convenient.

Dalian Hotel

Hotel Check-in Experience| Dalian Yifang Castle Luxury Selection Hotel is near Xinghai Square, on the hillside, facing the sea. The hotel has a shuttle bus to take guests to the foot of the mountain. The lobby is on the 1st floor. As soon as you enter the door, the Cl place is on the left, which is really small. The concierge department is on the right, and the attitude is very good. There are many people taking pictures in the lobby, and many people are taking wedding photos. It is indeed very magnificent. After talking in advance, I was given a noble sea view room on the 15th floor. The room faces the cross-sea bridge, and the view outside the window is really beautiful. You can directly sit in the room and watch the light show performance at night. But the hardware of the room is really a bit old, the sofa and the ground are a bit mottled, and the room price of more than two thousand feels a bit unworthy. The bathroom standard is a large bottle of Briedo, with a smart toilet. Breakfast is located in the western restaurant on the 1st floor. There are people leading the seats. The meals are not particularly many, but they are all available. There are many types of bread to choose from. There is no executive lounge, and snacks are delivered to the room. The gym is on the 3rd floor, the equipment is also complete, and there is a balcony where you can breathe fresh air The hotel staff called in advance to confirm the itinerary and confirm the room, very enthusiastic. But I forgot to give the welcome fruit on the day of check-in, and reminded that it was delivered to the room the next day. The night bed service is also quite standard.
