Questions & Answers on Fuzhou Travel Tips

Asked by TAN TIAN HOCK from MALAYSIA | Jul. 24, 2016 08:13

Which is the better hotel in Fuzhou, Lakeside Hotel or Crown Plaza?

Answers (1)

Answered by Nana from SINGAPORE | Jul. 25, 2016 03:00

Both are five star hotels, but I would recommend the Lakeside which is a old hotel but have nice facilities. What's more important is that it has better location, next to West Lake Park. The Crown Plaza Hotel was newly opened in 2015. Though the condition inside is flawless, the surroundings are a little isolated. I was there last month and was shocked that the taxi driver even couldn't find it.

If you arrive at the main railway station, you can take bus no.22 to the college directly.
If arriving at the South Railway Station, you can take bus no.124 to Hongshanqiao West, then walk northward along Shangxiadian Road for about 1000 yards to get there.

Oh, I see. You are suggested to stay at Fliport Inn Haibin Hotel. It's just located at the opposite of Terminal Building. The price is around CNY 500 per night. The hotel provides comfortable living environment and warm service. In addition, when you arriving at the hotel, you can ask for Wake-up Service. The staff will remind you in the next early morning. Don't worry.

Here is my suggestion:
At Guomao Mansion Luzhong airport terminal in Zibo, you can take a direct intercity shuttle bus to Jinan Airport. There take a flight to FZ. Upon ur arrival, take airport shuttle bus to Apollo Hotel. Then your destination, Yuyuan, is only around 1,000 meters away.
