EK Inn Hotel (Dalian Railway Station Zhongshan Square Subway Station)

Overall a good place with a bright design. Location is about 20-25 minutes walking from the train station or 15 minutes from the metro station with a direct link to the airport. It is foreigner friendly, since the friendly staff knows some English or tries to communicate via online translator. The bed was very comfortable, Aircon worked for cooling, WiFi was fast. Two minor flaws: drainage in the shower didn't work well and there was some weird smell in the room when I arrived, but nothing too serious. The breakfast is not a buffet. You'll be served a tray with some food as shown on photo. If you like chicken feet and a prawn in rice porridge for breakfast, you'll love it :) On the flip side, they push you hard to leave them a 5* review when you check out. They even have a special manual for that in several languages. This spoils the overall good impression. In any case, I can recommend this place.

This hotel is very nice and credible place and not expensive! Business travelers can be pleased with here.

We had a very wonderful stay. The room was new, clean and very quiet and cosy. Staff was very helpful and friendly. Location was great for walking the City. If you are into nightlife the club district is right next door. Even so we slept soundly and didn't hear a thing all night.
