Shangri-La Hotels and Resorts, Dapeng Halbinsel

"Great club lounge, great service, super friendly staff, nice pool, very clean"

"I don't understand how this hotel is rated as 5 stars. The room was extremely outdated — the furniture and general setup felt like it hadn’t been updated in 50 years. The shower was disgusting: the shower head was brown and worn-out, there was excessive silicone everywhere in the shower cabin, and visible mold. Room service? Practically non-existent. We tried ordering four times, and each person we called told us to call someone else. In the end, we gave up. That’s just embarrassing for a hotel in this category. We stayed in a non-smoking room, but the entire hallway and nearby rooms constantly smelled of cigarette smoke. People smoked indoors as if it were completely normal — it was a nightmare. The lobby was another disappointment. There's no real seating area — just four chairs. For a hotel of this size and supposed quality, that’s bizarre and unwelcoming. You walk in and there’s literally nowhere to sit comfortably. Another serious issue was the general atmosphere as a woman. Most of the guests were groups of men, mostly from Arabic and Indian backgrounds, and as a woman I constantly felt stared at — not just casually, but in an intimidating and disturbing way. I felt very unsafe going anywhere alone. It felt like these men had never seen a woman before, and I was always on edge. I absolutely do not recommend this hotel, especially to female travelers. It was a complete disaster."

"Shenzhen ist keine Touristenstadt. Kaum jemand spricht gut englisch. Im Hotel wäre ich froh gewesen um Stadtplan, Ausflugs-Vorschläge etc. Das Hotel, direkt neben Ping An, sehr gut gelegen, sehr komfortabel."

"Clean and solid hotel."
