Meritus Shantou Hotel - China

Stretching upward for 21 floors, the Meritus Shantou Hotel lies in Guangdong’s 2nd biggest city’s bustling business district. All guest rooms have eclectic furnishings and are decorated in soft patterns and colours. Guests may control the heating and air conditioning themselves. All rooms also feature writing desks, electronic safes and key card access. Mandarin chicken rice is the specialty at the 232 seat Brasserie Tatler, which also serves several other Asian dishes. The swimming pool, the only one in Shantou open throughout the year, overlooks both the city and a lush garden; jacuzzis are placed at both ends of the pool. The Jin Sha East Road location is just 5kms from the nearest rail station and 10kms from Shantou Airport. The ancient buildings in Shantou’s old town are slowly being replaced with more modern structures, so catch them while you can!
