Almost perfect...
Nice hotel overall, but the breakfast left a lot to be desired - the only option at the hotel was to literally book McDonald's breakfast and it would be delivered in the morning. Yuck! Also, the beds were a bit too firm for me.

A very good location. Shopping was within walking distance. Designer stores were world class. Hotel is a little old though staff are very helpful.

Good location
the carpet was dirty, the bed was as hard as a board, the toilet seat needed replacing, the a/c was noisy and didn't work properly, there was only Chinese food for breakfast and no one understood English which made it difficult although they were nice to us

Good hotel but showing signs of age
I like the location of this hotel. The size of the room was good and generally very confortable. However, the hotel is showing sign of age, and needs better maintenace and cleaning. Molds were showing in the shower and the sink. Walls had signs of water damages.

Not going back
Really average. Next to the sub and to a big mall which is convenient. However ,cleaning needs to be improved. Our room was smelling cold smoke when it was a non smoking room. The furniture looks old and we had view on the empty swimming pool (bouh!) You flood the bathroom when you shower and the best (i mean worse, sense the tone) was the complimentary products were half used.

much better in the past
this hotel has gone downhill. the original shanghai restaurant downstairs has moved. the room has a 10 year old TV. the wifi was so weak I had to call the IT guy to get me a second modem. Though the location is decent, I probably won't stay again..

Just OK
I booked this hotel having not ever been to Shenzhen before. I have stayed in worse but I have also stayed in much better so I would most likely stay somewhere else next time as this was under my expectations for the price.

good and convenient, lack of character though
I had an alright stay, clean. Boring neighborhood but close to Hong Kong border. Communicating with staff in English is a stuggle as it often is in China.

Excellent Business Hotel
I always stay at the New Times. It's just a three-min taxi drive to the train station to Hong Kong and a two-min walk to a luxurious mall. Near one main highway to the airport, seaport and main industrial areas. Many restaurants and fast food places around.

Great Location! Nice Hotel
The titles says it all. Conveniently located blocks from the Luohu Commercial Center, the King Glory Plaza and the MixC; all walking distance or very short cab rides to and from. The exterior and the main lobby are very simple but don't judge the rooms by them - my room was clean and just as nice as some of the bigger name hotels I usually stay at. I asked a room facing away from the street and it was very quiet. The amenities included everything you would expect from a hotel - just read the signs (English included) because some will incur a charge if you use them. One thing - the bed was very firm - and I prefer firm so I slept well. It was firmer than a memory foam mattress. Overall impression - I enjoyed my stay at this hotel and I would stay here again. I forgot to mention, staff does speak limited English.

Better the first time!
This was my second time at the hotel as I enjoyed my first stay. We were given a room in which the bathroom was "flooded" after a shower. Upon our complaint, a service personnel came and laid some towels on the floor and said that this was quite normal with showering in a bath tub. But, I told her that this did not happen during my previous stay and requested for a change of room. Reluctantly, they changed our room past midnight upon my insistence. At check-out, they wanted to charge me for a phone call made at 11:30pm when I moved into the room after midnight. Thus, please watch out for such items!

Overpriced for aging average hotel
Requested a non-smoking room and was placed in a smoking room. The staff was helpful, but facilitated a fleecing of some of my colleagues for a transfer to HKG airport. After being quoted 900RMB for trip, they did a bait and switch and increased the price to 1200RMB at the time of departure, which my staff was forced to pay. The building is old and dated, everything is overpriced as if it was a five star in a three star building. 5min walk to subway. Overall there are better choices around.

BAD service
I have paid for 2 rooms with additional bed in each room for 6 persons, 3 persons each room clearly stately on the booking but when i arrived, they told me the hotels.com agent only booked 2 rooms for a total of 3 persons to stay and if i wanted to add bed i have to pay an extra of RMB180 for each bed. They wanted me to contact the agent to sort things out with the website agent when it was already 10pm at night because they have nothing to do with them. They said my booking email is not valid because it was not issued by the hotel but the hotels.com agent. We argued for about an hour then only the hotel manager decided to deal with the booking agent regarding this matter the next day. We had additional bed in each room and didnt pay extra at the end but I would not recommend to book with this hotel despite the comfort and location because there are plenty of good hotels around and you won't want to waste an hour over checking in for stupid reason. If you would really want to book in this hotel, I would recommend you to call them and double check if they have the correct booking. I think they have problem understanding the room booking over the internet. If they do not recognise online booking email, how can I trust that the rooms are booked for me despite early payment?

The hotel was not informed of our booking prior to our arrival. However the staff were very helpful and assisted to call Orbitz to check on our booking. The deluxe room was clean and neat. Location is good as it's 10min stroll to the metro station.

房间残旧, 灯具都烂了. 沙发颜色不配搭. 残红色的沙化让我朋友受惊
照片跟房间不太相同, 照片房间大很多. 他可能只给行政房的照片人家看, 标淮的没给. 让人以为标淮房是这样. The room is quite different from the photo. Perhaps it only shows the executive room and not the standard room. Then I thought it was the standard room.
