Dalian's shoreline just got more dramatic. Next month the northeastern coastal city sees the opening of The Castle, a hotel that really lives up to its name. Boasting turrets and a rooftop garden surrounded by crenelated walls, this fairy-tale building stands guard over Dalian's Xinghai Bay.

It's positioned at the start of a 20km boardwalk that passes imposing headlands and white-sand beaches, making it the perfect spot to take in some sea air. Almost 300 opulent rooms are accompanied by top-class facilities including a swimming pool, fitness centre, spa, multiple restaurants and a microbrewery.
