## Questions
**How much does a hotel that accepts foreigners in Xiamen cost?**
Typically about $43 a night; most of the 182 with a previously observed price cost $26 to $65. For comparison, the typical hotel in Xiamen is about $28. Prices are earlier observations, not quotes; the booking site shows the live price for your dates.

**Which are the top-ranked hotels in Xiamen that accept foreigners?**
On Staylist World: Fairmont Xiamen (guest rating 9.8 from 2,352 reviews), Vishan Garden Boutique Hotel（ Zhongshan Road Pedestrian Street Store） (guest rating 9.8 from 3,440 reviews), Zijin Hotel Xiamen (guest rating 9.8 from 3,675 reviews). The order weighs each score by how many guests reviewed the hotel, and no hotel can pay to rank higher.

**Where are most hotels in Xiamen that accept foreigners?**
Siming District (101), Huli District (36), Jimei District (34), Haicang District (6), and more.

**Can foreigners stay at any hotel in Xiamen?**
No. Hotels in mainland China need police approval to register foreign guests, and some smaller hotels do not have it. Every hotel on this list states on its booking page that it accepts guests from all countries. Book online rather than walking in: you can be turned away at a hotel without the approval, and staff cannot make an exception.

**What happens when a foreigner checks in at a hotel in Xiamen?**
The front desk scans your passport and registers you with the police for you; it usually takes a few minutes. Staff may speak little English, but most use a translation device. Many hotels ask for no deposit; when they do, it is usually ¥100 to ¥300 by Alipay, WeChat Pay or foreign card, refunded at checkout.

**Should I book my Xiamen hotel in advance?**
Yes. Booking ahead guarantees a hotel that can register you and keeps your room at busy times; there is nothing to gain by waiting until you arrive. Paying online in advance also avoids card machines that front-desk staff rarely use for foreign cards.
