Holiday Inn Express Xiamen Airport Zone, an IHG Hotel

I highly recommend it if you need to fly the next morning. It's neat and economical. There are no other advantages.

This property is only 7 km from airport. The options to get there are taxi, bus 424. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Room size is larger than standard.

Although the hotel was conformable & clean and the breakfast was wonderful, the wifi did not work. I was in Xiamen while on a business trip which impeded my ability to work. The staff tried their hardest to fix it but were unable to and ignored my requests for a refund. When checking out I was told I would receive a reimbursement on my credit card which I never received. If you just need a place to sleep near the airport it is decent but definitely would not recommend for anything else.

We like the breakfast offered by the hotel. It's a bit far away from the main area of the airport. There is basically nothing around. We were just transferring for one night, so we chose to stay here with Holiday Inn Express.

Super friendly hotel and meet all are requests quickly. Quite easy to grab a taxi in the morning, only about 10 mins from the airport. Super quiet stay and great view over the water. If you have a long layover, this is a great place.

I really enjoyed my stay during my 24 hour layover in Xiamen. The staff were very kind and helpful, although my Chinese is not very good they still understood and helped me in Chinese which i really appreciated. Alrgough they could speak English if needed. The restaurant still made dinner for me even though I came in 5 minutes before closing and no one else was there The TV in my room was too low to be able to hear about 25% of the time. And annoyingly, although hotels.com says it has Airport Transfer,it does not mean shuttle or free transport. It just means they will call a car for you, but i think literally all hotels will do this so why put it as a special service? Its like saying "we have bathrooms!" I chose this hotel partly for the airport transfer so i feel a bit mislead. The other reason I chose this hotel was the free breakfast which for me was perfect. Good variety of bread, fruit, and traditional chinese breakfast foods as well as a special for Tomb Sweeping Festival.

There was one receptionist who spoke English. Most people spoke Chinese which is understandable. Service was good after the communication barrier was sorted. They helped me to call a taxi to take me to the airport which was appreciated.
