Truly the pinnacle of hotels in Shantou, the lobby is absolutely breathtaking!

Shantou Marriott Hotel

🏙️ Prime location with ultra-convenient transportation

The hotel is situated in Shantou's central CBD, Zhugang New Town, with an unbeatable location. It's about a 30-minute drive from Jieyang Airport, and just a 10-minute taxi ride from Shantou Station. There's plenty to do nearby—just a short walk takes you to lively streets filled with all kinds of Chaoshan delicacies to indulge in. The seaside is also close by, perfect for a leisurely stroll to enjoy the ocean views 🌊.

🌌 Sky-high lobby with panoramic sea views

Upon entering the first-floor lobby, a stunning nearly 10-meter-high mosaic mural immediately catches the eye, inspired by the Chaoshan architectural style known as "Four-Point Gold," exuding rich local charm. Check-in is on the 27th floor, and stepping out of the elevator—wow! The expansive view through floor-to-ceiling windows offers a 270-degree panorama of Shantou's inner bay, with clear views of Mayu Island and Shantou Bay Bridge. Every shot is postcard-worthy.

🏠 Cozy rooms with thoughtful details

The rooms feature plenty of wooden elements paired with Morandi color schemes, creating a comfortable stay. My sea-view room offered both city and ocean vistas, and falling asleep to the sound of waves at night was pure bliss. The room also includes Chaoshan-inspired touches, like Gongfu tea sets and traditional Chaoshan decor, adding a strong regional flair.

🍱 Culinary feast for the taste buds

Breakfast on the 27th floor is a dazzling array of options, from Western dishes to authentic Chaoshan specialties like seafood claypot porridge and Chaoshan rice noodle rolls—all incredibly authentic. With executive privileges, you can also dine at the 37th-floor lounge for an elevated experience.

🏋️‍♂️ Fitness facilities to sweat it out

I loved the gym and indoor pool on the 7th floor! The gym is fully equipped, and running while enjoying sea views is a bonus. The pool is temperature-controlled year-round, perfect for a swim anytime. After a workout, relax in the dry or wet sauna in the changing rooms.

📸 Picture-perfect spots with high photo potential

The floor-to-ceiling windows in the 27th-floor lobby are ideal for capturing sea and city views; the "Four-Point Gold" mural on the first floor is full of Chaoshan charm and makes for great photos; the 7th-floor pool is perfect for swimsuit shots; and the elegant 37th-floor executive lounge exudes sophistication in every snap.
