Xiamen, CHINA

Experience total cultural immersion in an urban haven where shoreside heritage meets contemporary style

 
 

At Waldorf Astoria Xiamen, timeless elegance is shaped by the spirit of a Chinese garden city. This sophisticated hotel reinterprets Xiamen’s seafaring history and European architectural sensibilities to create a modern garden mansion where past and present exist in graceful harmony.

Located in the geographic centre of Xiamen Island, the property offers both peaceful seclusion and convenient access to the entire island, with Xiamen Railway Station and Xiamen Gaoqi International Airport both within a 20-minute drive. The nearby Lianhua Park and local community add an authentic feel of neighbourhood life.

The hotel features 245 finely appointed guest rooms, including 12 suites. Every accommodation boasts floor-to-ceiling windows providing panoramic views of Lotus Park and the cityscape. The design combines art, natural light and balance, drawing inspiration from tea culture and the area’s coastal legacy, perfectly accented with carefully curated artworks.

All rooms are equipped with Aesop bath amenities and plush linens, ensuring a stay that feels both refined and deeply comforting. From tea welcomes and turndowns to handwritten notes and Personal Concierge care, every detail reflects a sense of warmth and discreet attention.

Guests can savour traditional Minnan cuisine at the Michelin one-star Chinese restaurant, Hokklo, and opt for an intimate dining experience at the chef’s table. Alternatively, indulge in French and European cuisine at Brasserie One, enjoy an afternoon tea including low-sugar, gluten-free desserts at Peacock Alley, or gather for conversation over fine whiskeys at 1387 bar.

Beyond dining, guests can unwind at the Waldorf Spa, work out with Technogym equipment in the 24-hour fitness centre, or swim in the heated outdoor swimming pool.

For celebrations and events, majestic ballrooms and sunlit meeting spaces evoke harmony through circular motifs – deeply rooted symbols in Chinese culture that represent reunion and connection. Whether you’re visiting for business, celebration or quiet renewal, Waldorf Astoria Xiamen delivers a luxurious urban retreat where nature, culture and artistry converge.
