Large and comfortable rooms - comfortable bed. Several choices for pillows. Grounds were like being at a resort (too cool to try the pool, but it looked as if it would be fun). Nice balcony - but note that the rooms on one side back up to a small amusement park - so if you are noise sensitive, confirm your... more

After a long two weeks working in Guangzhou, I ventured down to Shenzhen for a weekend at the Intercontinental. The hotel is a strange folly, a sort of tribute to Spain and bullfighters with staff dressed accordingly. The pool is gorgeous, but the hotel lacks the finesse one would expect. The staff seem to be poorly trained, straining at English... more

Hotel is first rate. If it were not for the smog, I would bring my family there. I know my children would love to play in the pool with the tall ship within. Rooms are large, well appointed and clean. The service was prompt and helpful. more

Went there with my friends to celebrate Christmas at Pipette, French restaurant. The restaurant is stylish and decorated with Christmas red, nice and elegant. food was real French and service was excellent. i will for sure go back again! more

Overall this was a great hotel. Coming from rather compact Hong Kong, these were some of the largest rooms I have seen in China and were excellently appointed. The Spanish themed decor was a bit unexpected (especially the doormen dressed in full matador regalia) but didn't detract from the pleasant surroundings. The grounds, and especially the pool, are fantastic. Nice... more

The Intercontinental Hotel Shenzhen - Rooms are nice, luxurious. Best part is the huge bath / spa. TVs in the bathroom. The Garden Balcony is very nice A little too large of a complex for my taste, reminds me of Las Vegas. Walk forever to find your room. However, it is a great facility. Fitness center is top notch! Best... more

Fully agree with the previous reviewer's comments. The spanish theme just seems, well, incongruous. Especially the costumes worn in the lobby (the "matadors" with pink socks especially). The pictures and symbols of bulls literally everywhere was also sometimes a bit too much. All that aside, the hotel is a very fine one. The rooms are spotless, modern, spacious and well-designed.... more

I have to say that this is one of the best hotels I have stayed in. The staff are very friendly, always looking to help and with a genuine smile. I do have to say I'm baffled by the Spanish theme however. And whoever thought the bellboys had to dress as Matadors in Orange vests and Pink socks I believe... more

The facilities in this hotel are top notch, complemented by the vibrant yet sophisticated decor. Staffing is abundant and very attentive. We booked the lowest priced room directly through the hotel's website. The stated size of the room is 50 sq. meters. It doesn't feel that large when you enter the room, because a lot of area has gone to... more
