“Nice beach resort in need of maintenance”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 January 2012
3
people found this review helpful

The Sheraton is considered the best hotel in Haikou. It is right on the beach, and has wonderful beach access and splendid pools.
Positives:
Good size rooms (however, make sure to get a Garden King that features a sofa rather than a chair. The latter rooms feel cramped.) Bathroom has separate shower, and doors that open into the room to make the bathroom feel bigger and has natural light.
Breakfast buffet was excellent!
Chinese Restaurant is excellent!
Nice Beach adjacent to the hotel
Wine Club was a nice treat.
Negatives
Most of the staff can not communicate in English. Front desk staff was 'ok' at best.
Hotel is nearly 7 years old and you can see the wear and tear. Typical for China, very little is maintained properly. The balcony railing in my hotel room had a great deal of rust!
Lobby looks old and dated.
Room service extremely slow! Took 45 mins to get ice sent to my room at least three different times over a three day stay
Resort is a long drive from many of the amenities in the city. If you have business in Haikou, expect a 30 minimum taxi ride

Room and bed quite comfortable. will stay here again but will know the weaknesses.

Room Tip: get a Garden King that has a sofa in it. much more comfortable than a standard King. And less expens...

Dear Guest,

Warm greeting from Sheraton Haikou Resort!

Thank you very much for sharing these important points with us. Meanwhile, we appreciate that you give much advice to us service and facility and do apologize for the inconvenience.
Because hotel has been Haikou already 6 years, some areas of hotel are renovated during 2011, such as lobby area, Chinese restaurant Private dining room. We also got a new chess room and a elegant red wine Bar. Followed the starwood standard, we changed the bedclothes for many rooms. We hoped the facilities can drive you a nice stay.
For the weakness, I will pass your feedback to the training department, and they will desigh the English training for our service associates. The room service should be quickly, and I will thansmit your commend to our Food and Beverage Director.

Thank you again for choosing our resort be your home far away home. We look forward to seeing you next time.

“Nice hotel but lacking of service”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 January 2012
2
people found this review helpful

Stayed 3 nights at Sheraton Haikou in December 2011. We arrive late, almost at 2AM due to flight delay from Hong Kong. Our group consisted of 4 families and we requested for the 4 rooms to be on same level or nearby but was told that room occupancy was high and as such the rooms available were at different levels and different wings. It was nice that the front office staff agreed to relocate our rooms the next days so that our rooms will be on the same floor. Also, we had requested for 3 rooms for King size bed as we had kids with us but they were not able to provide the King size rooms. All were to be settled the in the morning.

However, when we enquire the next morning before we left for our tour, we were informed that only one room will be changed and that was promised earlier will not materialised. My husband was upset as we only wanted to move 2 out of the 4 rooms the agreed earlier. He then requested to speak to the manager on duty. Only upon this they agreed to move 2 of our rooms to the same level. I think the service level needs some improvement.

Otherwise, it's quite a nice hotel with beautiful surroundings. Rooms are quite spacious and clean. Would recommend this hotel to others.

“Great for golfers!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 December 2011

Next to a few golf courses, Sheraton resort us great for golfers. As usual, Sheraton's staff are friendly and helpful, so it's always a pleasure staying in Sheraton. However, the resort is not near any shopping malls and there are no shuttle buses out to the city center. Moreover, the beach area is under renovation and you can't really take a stroll on the beach now.

Dear Guest,

Warm greeting from Sheraton Haikou Resort!

Thank you for choosing our hotel be your family in Haikou and so happy you enjoy a good time here. Haikou is a nice city, specially for golfer. Our hotel is located at the West Coast of Haikou, with coconut tree and beautiful sea. As the West Coast develop, go to the shopping center is more and more convenience.
Our hotel finished her renovation in recent days, we changed the TV in the room from the old ones to the 42' LED new TV. All the laundry change to the new one. Maybe next time you come back can get the different felling.

Thank you again for sharing the comment with us. We look forward to seeing you soon.

“Comfortable Short Stay, But Be Careful for the Location”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 November 2011
1
person found this review helpful

I stayed at this resort for 2 nights for a business trip to Haikou in mid of Nov. 2011. The room is comfortable and has a decent balcony for two to sit in. Open-style bath room with bath and tub, very clean and a lot of towels.

The location is at brim of the city, which means it's not convenient. Just a few taxi waiting outside and they charge 50-70RMB to downtown, all refusing to charge on meter. I went out with my colleauge for lunch one day, the restarant was just a 5-min ride from the resort and the taxi driver charged 40RMB. If living in the downtown, it usually take less than 20RMB to take taxi from one location to another.

I didn't have chance to enjoy the beach or swimming pool, so can't comment on it. But the water I saw was dark during my stay.

No restauratants or shopping near the hotel, you have to take taxi to eat outside. I tried the room service for breakfast, the quality is acceptable and the price is OK (90RMB for continental or oriental including service charge).

No free Internet, 100RMB per day.
