My only experience of this hotel is the Lobby bar and Chatterbox restaurant. Both provide good, friendly service, good food and drinks in a pleasant environment. Unfortunately, however, the non smoking policy mentioned by a previous reviewer (gemsintheworld) seems not to be enforced an more. Of the 12 tables occupied in the lobby bar on my visit, 8 had guests... More

Its a good hotel considering the money that you pay. Room is clean but small. Not sure if its the same room you get when you make the booking. Air-con is too cold. I adjusted it to 30 degrees and still found it cold. May be the adjustments don't work. As stated elsewhere, its not very close to the airport...... More

Since last visit a year ago, and not reviewed then, Wifi had been added, and works well considering its China, changes in the kitchen are also well noted, service in the hotel as usual is smile and resolve.. attitude..... Though in China, here English is improving, rendering the stay of non Chinese speakers like myself just that bit more easier.... More

This is the 2nd time I have stayed in this hotel and feel it has sadly gone downhill, since my previous visit last July 2011. The checkin was very quick and efficient, with a Bellboy to take my luggage up to my room, but on entering the room, the smell that greeted me was horrendous, there was a wet yellowish... More

I read a lot of the past reviews - and whilst i dont think the hotel is 5 star... its a good basic property. Rooms are tidy and comfortable, and i found the service to be very friendly and helpful. English is an issue in the hotel - but then again, this is China, so its at the level i... More

Decoration in the room is so simple and old, Air-con just cold but can not adjust to colder, Breakfast variety is very simple, Most of waiters can not speak/understand English. Stream room and Sauna and shower room are not that clean

Good hotel rooms are large, big bed, and clean. Internet is only available wired, no WIFI in the rooms. WIFI is anyway present in the lobby and ground floor restaurant. I had dinner one night there and it was buffet style, I found it rather expensive considering being in China. Staff was nice.

The staff are all friendly here, and the rooms are comfortable and clean without being anything outstanding. The beds are comfortable and the rooms are quite and I slept well. The buffet breakfast is very expensive for China (147rmb), but they have a big range of food, both Chinese and western. I didn't try the dinner buffet, but I did... More

Stayed 3 nights in Meritus Mandarin. There aren't many international standard hotels in Haikou and the other one Sheraton is very very far away. This hotel is very popular with meetings, so it is usually heavily occupied. The rooms are tired, but kept in okay condition. The location is on the west side of the city, but a short cab... More
