WHY THIS HOTEL

Scored on one metric:
minutes from the tee.

The honest
pitch.

The dependable classic among Dalian’s business hotels — central, calm, and inside the shortest transfer radius to three ranked courses.

The InterContinental is where we place travellers who want the city as much as the golf: walking distance to Dalian’s commercial streets, a proper club lounge, and forty minutes to Red Flag Valley in the morning.

Dalian rewards the base-and-rotate pattern more than any other Chinese city — four genuinely different courses, all ranked or near-ranked, all inside an hour. The InterContinental sits at the centre of that circle.

In combination with the Hilton and the Conrad it covers every tier of a mixed-ability group: the low handicaps chase the Unicorn Course’s drops while the rest of the group plays the seaside courses and meets everyone for dinner.

  • Hongqigu (No.54) 40 minutes; Changxing Island links (No.96) 70 minutes; Xiali 30 minutes; airport 30 minutes.
  • From about ¥600 per night twin; partner golf packages from ¥3,299 for three nights and three rounds.
  • Best season: May–Oct. We book room and tee times as one package so neither can strand the other.
  • THE GOLF AT THE DOOR

    The downtown base
    for a Dalian golf week.

    If your group wants restaurants, shopping and short transfers rather than sea views from the room, this is the address. Xijiao is the closest course; the coast is a day trip.

    Xijiao Country Club

    The nearest championship course to the city centre: mountain routing inside the Xijiao forest park, bentgrass fairways, and a floodlit nine for after dinner. Our default first round for groups landing in the afternoon.

    MARK HOLLINGER · 18 + 9 HOLES · 30 MIN
    Xiali Golf Club

    Nicklaus on the coast, and the only northeast China course open twelve months a year. Twin greens, water on every hole, and a wind that makes the back nine a different course from the front.

    JACK NICKLAUS · 18 HOLES · OCEAN
    Golden Pebble Beach

    Fifty-eight kilometres east at Jinshitan — a full day out rather than a quick round. Worth it once for the seventh hole alone; we schedule it as the middle day of a week, with a driver and no evening plans.

    BEYOND THE GOLF

    The rest of the resort,
    told straight.

    This is the part your non-golfers care about — and the reason the trip works as a week, not a series of tee times.

    Friendly Square address

    The hotel sits on Friendly Square in Zhongshan district — the historic commercial heart, five minutes’ walk from the Qingniwaqiao shopping area and the subway.

    Airport runs

    Twenty-five to thirty-five minutes to Zhoushuizi depending on traffic, which makes this the sensible choice for a group with an early departure after a final round.

    Executive floor

    Club lounge, express check-in and a quieter breakfast — the practical upgrade when a group is arriving on different flights.

    Pool, gym & spa

    Indoor pool, fitness centre and spa: standard InterContinental provision, and enough to fill a rest day between rounds.

    Dining & banqueting

    Chinese and international restaurants plus meeting space — this is a business hotel first, so service runs to schedule.

    ASKED BEFORE YOU ASK

    Three questions,
    honest answers.

    Everything else — room categories, caddie arrangements, that back nine your handicap fears — is one message away.

    How many rounds can we realistically play?

    3 courses are profiled above, and a four-night stay comfortably covers three rounds without a single long transfer. Your planner sequences them so the toughest round lands on your freshest morning.

    Is this hotel a good pick for non-golfers?

    Yes — that is half the reason we book it. Friendly Square address is the headline, and the full day programme is planned with the same care as the tee sheet.

    What does a stay here actually cost?

    From about ¥600 per night twin; partner golf packages from ¥3,299 for three nights and three rounds. Everything is quoted as one fixed all-in price — room, rounds, caddies, drivers and transfers — so nothing arrives as a surprise on checkout day.
