Linghai Hotel (Sunlight Rock Gangzaihou Beach Branch)

Had a great family vacation stay at Linghai celebrated my son’s birthday in last minute plan with hotel staff recommendation and help. Hotel located about 15 mins walk from ferry station, but definitely worth for the view. Staffs and services are professional, great overall experience including the restaurants hotel thoughtfully recommended to guests for food safety and not getting tourist scams. Highly recommend the place, and would love to go back!

We had a wonderful stay! The room was beautiful. The staff were really attentive and helpful. We really enjoyed the daily afternoon tea and the breakfasts. The staff will do your laundry for free too! Overall, would highly recommend this hotel and visiting Gulangyu generally

When we arrived at the quarry it started to rain. The luggage pickup service was done by a middle aged man who seemed like a really nice guy, however he was ill-equipped for rainy weather. We walked through the rain and the luggage was completely soaked. (No buggy except for government related service, so the man used a trolley) the hotel room seemed sparse for its price, we booked the suite with panorama view. The night view is fantastic, but the toilet is easily choked, the staff came up to unclog the toilet explained that the piping was since time ancient and therefore cannot take any tissue. Luckily we only booked one night. Also the trip booking system seemed to hold the $$ for ‘preauthtorisation’ and the hotel requires you to pay again for the actual payment. Quite a number of guests were also buffled by this arrangement. Do take note of you are paying a guarantee to trip.com or the actual hotel. Only one young male staff was very enthusiastic and helpful, the rest did not seem like they want to work here. The atmosphere at front desk was generally quite gloomy.

Very spacious hotel with a balcony. Close to Gangzaihou Beach and many restaurants within walking distance.

Perfect location with seaview. We liked the friendly service as well as the afternoon tea and the breakfast. Highly recommend!

於百年古宅倚山聆海 在攻略裏找了一家海景酒店，名為聆海，因為宣傳照片裏的海景而預訂。 酒店前台服務可謂頂級：從上島行李接運、入住指引、遊島攻略、眼罩耳塞驅蚊品、多種飲品即缺即供等等，可以説是無微不至。我的本意是在這座“豪宅”裏度過看海景泡浴缸刷劇“躺平”的首日遊，卻不曾想過關於這座小島的歷史畫卷會在此向我展開。 “這裡是東亞四大糖王 郭春秧 的故居，於1921年為慶祝他60大壽而建，距今已過百年，整體為歐式風格，有羅馬的拱門設計，外圍開放大陽台等。這座別墅風水一流，背靠日光巖，面朝幾經週轉後，被聆海酒店公司買下並改造。政府有規定，保留了80%以上的原貌，你所看到的碎方瓷磚圖案，都是百年前的作品…” 這是在鼓浪嶼生活了20年的楊先生所説，契機是酒店當晚在別墅附屬餐廳舉辦的鼓浪嶼茶話會。 走出小餐廳，回到氣勢磅礴的別墅酒店，昔日熱門景點人擠人的浮躁，在中西合併與古今融匯之中淹沒，衹剩下幽靜和震撼。大堂落地窗下的歐式旋轉樓梯，門框角上落了灰的蛛絲，直把我喚回了百年前錯過的不朽。 百感交集，我想這種跨越時空的浪漫與人文關懷，才是這座小島傳達的。古有郭春秧“包供茶”助台灣茶農，讓台灣烏龍茶走向世界。今臨酒店，或自己沏一壺茶磨一杯咖啡，或坐在庭院百年古樹下品一份酒店準備的下午茶，感受極致服務的同時，島上的近代名人名事娓娓道來。衹可惜這樣極致的體驗衹屬於少數人，“很無聊，半天甚至半個小時就逛完了”等浮躁的評論者註定錯過了諸多故事。 如果你想細閲鼓浪嶼這本書，我推薦可以將這裏作為第一頁。也希望聆海酒店繼續保持極佳的服務與鼓浪嶼人文歷史傳承精神，多多舉辦茶話會等類似活動，讓更多感興趣的遊客讀懂鼓浪嶼。 有機會一定再度光顧。
