The Premier Room Premier Sea View was only available if you went out to the balcony. I understand sea view is often in the general direction of the sea but a Premier sea view suggests something special and as the room was not cheap we were not impressed. The staff changed our room to Executive with full sea view for Rmb200 more per night but this included use of the Executive area where drinks, snacks and a simple dinner were included. We were happy with this deal. Breakfast buffet is huge but the western items by the egg station, such as bacon, beans, tomatoes, mushrooms etc were cold. Also the pancakes and waffles were stone cold unless there when being made. We thought it may just be an off day but on the 2nd day with great omelette and cold sides we mentioned this and the next day they added heat lamps over the food. It helped a little and the food was then lukewarm. The staff fussed over us each morning but as I said this really is something that affects all guests. Chinese guests would never accept anything other than fresh food. The staff ttied their best. We paid Rmb300 each for Christmas dinner but it was very disappointing. There was Turkey and Ham but no vegetables, not even potatoes. The meat was just added to the traditional evening buffet so we spent $100 to get some Turkey and Ham. Finally, the pool is great but is in shadow after lunchtime. At the end of the day this may be a Marriott but it is a Chinese hotel. Super staff let down by avoidable issues. V.Clean
