Shenzhen Huaqiang Plaza hotel (Huaqiangbei Metro Station)

Unbeatable Location but in Desperate Need of Renovation The Shenzhen Huaqiang Plaza Hotel offers a mixed bag of experiences. While it has one major advantage that overshadows its shortcomings, there are several areas where improvements are desperately needed. Pros: Location: The hotel is situated in the best location any visitor to Shenzhen could hope for. Huaqiangbei Metro Station is right at its doorstep, and the area is vibrant, filled with shops, restaurants, and everything a traveller might need. It’s truly the hotel’s standout feature. Extra Refreshments: One of the hotel’s more unique and appreciated offerings is the complimentary tea and cake in the early afternoon and a substantial snack selection in the late evening. These extras add a touch of hospitality that we enjoyed. Elevator Views: While the elevator system is far from efficient, the outside views from the elevators are refreshing and a pleasant distraction during the long waits. Cons: Tired and Rundown: The hotel shows its age in every corner. From worn-out fixtures to outdated furnishings, it’s clear that the property is long overdue for refurbishment. Even basic amenities like WiFi were unreliable to the point where we gave up trying to use it. Elevator Issues: The limited number of elevators is a significant drawback, especially as the hotel starts on the 23rd floor. Waiting for an elevator is a frustrating experience as they are often full, going the wrong direction, or repeatedly stopping at multiple floors. Bathroom Amenities: The bathroom setup is another area where the hotel falls short. Only solid soap bars are provided—an outdated choice when most modern hotels offer liquid soap or other amenities. This detail highlights how the hotel has neglected to update its offerings. Overall Experience: Despite its shortcomings, the unbeatable location of the Shenzhen Huaqiang Plaza Hotel is enough to bring me back. The convenience of being in the heart of Shenzhen’s bustling Huaqiangbei district outweighs the frustrations, though I sincerely hope the management considers renovating the property soon. With some upgrades, this hotel could easily become a top choice for travellers.

Fully satisfied with the stay. Front desk manager Alina Tan and Daphne Du provided excellent service throughout the entire stay. The hotel provided washing machine and dryer and free detergent as well. Great!

Our stay at Huaqiang Plaza Hotel was outstanding! Front Office Manager Jonathan Yang and Daphne Du went above and beyond, recommending excellent dim sum restaurants at Zi Yue Li and Fan Lou. They arranged an 8-seater limo shuttle for our family of seven, making our journey from Shenzhen to Tsim Sha Tsui, Hong Kong effortless. During our 40-minute wait for our limo shuttle to arrive, Daphne kindly offered our family a complimentary afternoon tea, which was a delightful treat. The service was exceptional, and the rooms were very comfortable. The hotel's location offers easy access to shopping malls, MTR, and various amenities. We highly recommend this hotel for an unforgettable stay!

Fantastic service especially from front desk 郭龄曼 who answered my questions on WeChat promptly and staff 静静who helped me keep my washed laundry. Breakfast and supper so-so but my kids are happy with the comfort food. Room was good. Will visit again!
