Gulangyu Miryam Boutique Hotel Xiamen is housed in a small but charming Victorian-style villa, offering just 15 guest rooms. With an enviable location on tranquil Gulangyu Island, the property is just a short ferry ride from the city of Xiamen. Staying here, you're conveniently located for exploring the island’s many attractions, including Nanputuo Temple and museums. There are no cars on the island, so you can also spend time walking along the esplanade and the beach and admiring the colonial buildings.
Each of the rooms is furnished with period furniture — some with four-poster beds — and has an en suite bathroom. From your window and from the communal terraces, you can take in views over the sea or the surrounding hills. Meals are served in the upscale restaurant, Ludwig, part of a chain of top-quality restaurants run by Chef Tomer Biran. When not out exploring the island, you can take a swim in the outdoor pool or stroll through the beautifully landscaped garden.
While we've had mixed feedback regarding the food and service levels here, the property's characterful, well-appointed rooms and peaceful island location make a stay worthwhile.
