ibis Tianjin Railway Station Hotel

Hotel and facilities generally very clean, as was all the linen and towels. Parking very cramped, you need to be very good to get anything bigger than a Mini parked. Rooms small, but so was the price. Good budget hotel, not for a long stay.

I have secured a booking confirmation (and provided credit card information for no-show penalty) on ibis.com, yet when I arrived at the hotel the front desk said the hotel was full, and he had no idea about my booking record. When I showed my confirmation, this gentlemen said he cannot read English. I was stranded at this hotel at 2 a.m. with no alternatives provided by the hotel. No one ever notified me for the possibility that my booking confirmation will not be honored before my arrival at Tianjin. The hotel manager called me at 9 a.m. the next day to "confirm" my booking for the night before.

Booked the family room for a stopover in Tianjin. Like: - 20 mins drive from Tianjin Binhai International Airport (but it is hard to find a taxi which trunk can carry 2 pieces of luggages) - close to railway and metro station - close to Riverview Mall where there are many dining options and a nice supermarket - spacious and low budget room - hot tea served in the lobby Dislike: - room is a bit torn, there is a large piece of paint peeling off from the wall and the table was damaged - noisy air conditioner - wifi not working - limited bathroom amenities, ie. toothbrush with paste, paper cups, soap and the shower gel plus shampoo is in a tube which needs to be squeezed out - RMB100 for deposit but can get back without checking anything

The positives for this hotel are: - a pretty low price - close to the central train station - clean towels - reasonably fast internet However, if you're used to 4 or 5 stars hotels (either Chinese or international) you may find this one repulsive. - worn-out hallway with stained carpet to your room - unpatched/unpainted walls/corners - slightly beaten up furniture and floor - questionable bathroom Overall this hotel felt like a high-traffic, low budget, student dormitory which was not renovated since it opened 20 years ago, but only had occasional repairs. If you're on a tight budget - it'll still work, if you're looking for something nice - look somewhere else

Room was good size, clean and bright. We were on the 7th floor and although checkin is normally 2pm, we were able to access our room at 0930am. Hotel is 6 minute walk to subway station, Line no. 9 and is one stop to the railway station for high speed train to Beijing, or train to Tianjin International Airport. Hotel offers complimentary half hourly daytime shuttles to the train station Monday to Friday. Only downside is very limited English spoken by the staff, and no tourist information or maps available in any language.

The floor is wooden and is dusty. The room was ok. The breakfast was the worst breakfast not only was there little options the taste was bad. It makes me regret paying for the breakfast. I have been in 2 previous hotels from my trip, yiwu and shanghai compared to the breakfast of the two hotels the breakfast of IBIS was a joke. It is near metro station but it takes a while to walk to the hotel when you are carrying luggage is quite a struggle since they are repairing the road leading to the hotel from the metro station. There are no eateries and convenience stores nearby and the prices of beverages and water at the lobby was too expensive so was the restaurant besides the hotel. I have stayed at IBIS in tianwei and thought that this ibis was better because of the higher rating but this IBIS was below par compared even to normal hotels in China

good location.near to railway station.2 min by taxi to railway station. free wifi at rooms with good quality. around the hotel is not very good for walking at night.around the hotel is old.for night activities its better to take a taxi.at night is not very good to walk around the hotel. clean room.i staid one night for business.

Located 2 blocks from Line 9's Dawangzhuang station, or a 15 minute walk from the main railway station, the hotel sits is relative quiet surroundings in a working class neighbourhood. It springs into life in the morning with a lively street market just outside the main entrance and also at night, when thinly-dressed girls vy for massages through their ground-floor open windows. They don't come out to bother you though because it was too cold. There is a supermarket on the way to the metro station or you can buy a bottle of water at the hotel for 3 yuan. I got some name cards for prostitution services stuffed beneath my door one night. A smell of cigarette smoke greets you at reception, but staff are efficient to get you on the way. The room is a standard ibis just like any other city although the bathroom has been poorly maintained with a nasty damp smell. Despite 10C daytime highs and night-time lows near freezing, the blanket provided was thin and the heating has been turned off for the season. They need to do some urgent maintenance on the bathroom. Taxi to the airport costed 50 yuan and the journey took 20 minutes in light traffic.

I arrived after midnight, after a delayed flight from Wuhan. It was a delight to find this comfortable hotel, which is a little out of the way but quiet residential area. However, some new riverside developments will bring restaurants and shops closeby. A trusted international brand, it enables some small comforts with foreign language TV channels not normally found in hotels in this price range.

This hotel is the worst Ibis Hotel I ever stayed. Rooms and all areas are very dirty, staff is rude and the facilities are terrible. No wifi in the room as mentioned on IBIS standards. The reception provides a router for 100 RMB deposit. Breakfast very dirty and messy.
