It was booked by the travel agent, and found this hotel is pleasant to stay. Service is good, and 4 meals a day are all free. Food is very average, variety, taste ok, but quality is just so so. The hotel is clean in general. You can't expect much from a little provice city hotel in Shantou of China, but... More

Happy Hotel gives great added values without being asked. If you speak mandarin or local dialect you will definitely enjoy a happy stay. I read the reviews in Tripsadvers and tried it myself with my family on 10 to 11 May 2012 and I must agreed with the very helpful reviews stated by the quests of Happy Hotel.

Travelling with family and stayed at Happy Hotel ( 金乐酒店,汕头) from 19-21 Apr 2012 and we were all satisfied with the hotel overall.

The hotel offer good value given the freebies thrown in (i.e 4 free meals... More

I had a deluxe room in the new block. But this is already outdated and the room quality was below average. The... More

Fantastic hotel for short stay. It comes with incredible four meals. The food is above average and variety unbelievable. But be there on time as food finishes very quickly and they do not replenish all dishes. Free flow of beer too not to mention cordials etc. Even welcome fruits for each day. No flat screen tv but free full internet... More
