Yingkou Sanhe Hot Spring Hotel

About this hotel

The hot spring is the whole story here, and it is a genuinely good reason to book if the trip has a spare day in it. The property sits a short taxi ride from Shanhai Square, well outside the Dalian city grid and a long run from both Zhoushuizi International Airport and the Ganjingzi sports complex. That distance is the honest headline: this is not a matchday base in any practical sense, and a fan trying to reach an evening fixture at Dalian Sports Center from here will spend most of the day travelling. What it is instead is a cheap, restorative stop for anyone driving the coast, with soaking pools that cost a fraction of what the equivalent would in the city. Fans staying here should build the trip around the spring rather than the stadium, and treat any event as a long excursion rather than a short hop.
