5-Star Hotels in Jiangsu, China

Huge thanks to concierge Graves for reserving a fantastic room for us with a beautiful tree view. The soundproofing issue, often mentioned online, was indeed present but only noticeable when people talked while passing by our door. The hotel's facilities and environment were perfectly fine, and the front desk and concierge staff were all very welcoming. I'd definitely choose to stay here again next time I'm in Suzhou.

If you could only do two things in Yangzhou, they would undoubtedly be 'admiring the gardens' and 'savoring Huaiyang cuisine'. My stay at Yangzhou Yingbin Hotel perfectly blended these two experiences, offering an unexpected feast for both my mind and body. Before checking in, I knew the hotel was located by Slender West Lake, but it wasn't until I truly stepped inside that I understood what 'a new scene with every step' really meant. The hotel itself is an exquisite Chinese-style garden, with pavilions, terraces, rockeries, and ponds artfully arranged. Strolling through the garden in the early morning or evening, sunlight streamed through the carved wooden windows, casting dappled shadows that reflected in the tranquil ponds, while white walls, dark tiles, and lush greenery complemented each other beautifully. Everywhere I looked in the garden was a vivid ink painting of Jiangnan. This immersive garden experience is something that simply visiting a regular attraction can't compare to. If the garden satisfied my eyes, then the hotel's restaurant thoroughly conquered my stomach. The highlight of this culinary journey was here: the morning tea at Quyuan Teahouse lived up to its reputation. In the elegant setting of the tea restaurant, I savored classic hot dried shredded tofu, crab roe soup dumplings, and five-filling buns. The dim sum was meticulously prepared and authentic in taste, making breakfast feel like a special ritual. For lunch and dinner, I tried several famous Huaiyang dishes. The boiled dried shredded tofu was fresh and tender, and the Lion's Head meatball, with its perfect balance of lean and fatty meat, melted in my mouth. Each dish showcased the essence of Huaiyang cuisine's philosophy of 'using local ingredients and meticulous craftsmanship,' and the staff's descriptions of the dishes were professional and appropriate. From the thoughtful service I received during check-in to the warm and attentive shuttle driver, every detail during my stay reflected the hotel's dedication. It's more than just a place to stay; it's a microcosm of Yangzhou culture. For travelers seeking to 'experience local character and savor culture,' this is undoubtedly an excellent choice.

The location is excellent, and the high-floor view is quite good. The afternoon tea included in the Trip.com package was incredibly good value for money, I just forgot to take a picture before eating it. The room is quite spacious, clean, and tidy. The facilities aren't brand new; there's no high-speed hairdryer or smart toilet, and the power outlet next to the desk was a bit difficult to open. There's only one tissue box, placed on the vanity. However, these are minor issues and don't really matter; they're easily adjustable. What I found unacceptable were two problems. Firstly, the elevator shaft connecting the suspended lobby to the first floor constantly emitted a whistling wind sound, which was noisy and unsettling. Secondly, I'm not sure if the air conditioning system is old and ineffective, or if they're saving energy and haven't turned it on properly. I couldn't adjust the temperature or mode. Outside, the temperature was dropping fast, nearing zero degrees, yet even with the in-room AC control set to 28°C, there was still no airflow. I called the front desk, and it took an age for someone to arrive. They pointed a forehead thermometer at the vent, it beeped, and they claimed the vent was blowing 26°C, saying there was no problem and that this was the set temperature, controlled centrally by the hotel. The problem is, I had the whimsical idea to hold a paper-thin tissue up to the vent, and it didn't even flutter.

I've stayed at InterContinental Nanjing quite a few times now, so I consider myself a regular. This time, I want to share my thoughts. The hotel's style is quite different from the InterContinentals in Hangzhou. Nanjing's architectural vibe leans towards old money, giving off a very opulent and luxurious feel. And it's a tall building, which I love since I enjoy staying in high-floor rooms. Looking out over Nanjing from the 65th floor is truly amazing! Plus, the natural light is fantastic; the gentle sunshine really brightens your mood. I really need to commend the hotel's service. My butler, Alice, was incredibly attentive. She proactively asked if I needed room cleaning and how I slept. When I requested some items, Alice was super quick to deliver, and she wasn't stiff or formal like some other hotel butlers – she was very approachable. The doorman at the entrance was also great, kindly asking if I needed help with my luggage to my room and actively opening and closing the car door when I arrived. My only minor complaint is that the hotel pillows were a bit too soft for my liking. I prefer a firmer pillow, so I woke up with a stiff neck this morning. But that's really my fault, as I only realized while packing this morning that the hotel offers a pillow menu. Overall, InterContinental Nanjing maintains a very high standard. Even though it's been open for a while, its quality easily rivals other five-star luxury hotels. I hope the hotel continues its efforts to make guests like us feel right at home.

To experience the New Year's Eve atmosphere at Nanjing Xinjiekou, I chose the Jinling Hotel due to its excellent location. I could see the countdown on the big screen in Xinjiekou right from my room, which was fantastic! The front desk staff was also very nice. There was a slight delay of about ten minutes during check-in due to a minor issue, and they immediately offered us complimentary breakfast. The room was a family suite made up of two corner rooms, with two bathrooms, perfectly meeting the needs of two adults and two older children. Jin Hai Wan's sunny breakfast was rich and varied, and the young lady from Jinling Yashi was incredibly warm and attentive. It was a very satisfying stay.

This trip exceeded all my expectations, I'm incredibly satisfied! Even though Ctrip customer service didn't fully communicate my requests, the hotel was very generous. They upgraded me directly to an executive lake view room, which instantly elevated the whole experience. Getting an upgrade, especially to such a great room type during a holiday, is truly rare. The room offered views of both the lake and the 'Big Trousers' building. The hotel's service was impeccable; they were so good with kids, even giving them balloons and rings. All in all, it's an excellent family-friendly hotel. The playground is also better than those at most other hotels. The pool was great too, though we didn't get to try the outdoor one during our winter visit – we hope to return in the summer to experience it. I would definitely choose this hotel again next time I'm in Suzhou for three reasons: first, its excellent location; second, its service quality and standards far surpass those of Crowne Plaza; and third, the hotel is very accommodating and good to children.

Everything was top tier. From the check-in where I was upgraded to a river view room, the clean, spacious and inviting room to the service and superb breakfast. The view from the restaurant was amazing. This was my pre birthday trip and the Hyatt made it so special. I even got a slice to birthday cake. The lady at the front desk who checked me in spoke really good English and was so kind and caring and she’s also a Gemini 😁🎉 I would 100% recommend and come back here.

Great hotel in a superb location for a Yancheng visit. Staff are always warm and attentive, rooms are great and food is superb in the hotel

This was our first trip with our infant, so we chose a well-established five-star hotel hoping for a smooth experience. This InterContinental had both its pros and cons. Pros: Excellent location. As soon as we entered the room, we were greeted with an expansive lake view. There's a large circular bathtub, perfect for baby baths. Cons: Around 8:30 PM that day, while the baby was sleeping, the room phone suddenly rang. It was guest relations calling to check on our stay. The sudden ringing startled the baby so much... and it scared me too! I don't understand why they had to call at that hour; even if we hadn't been sleeping, it would have been a shock. The dust on the night light strip in the room was very noticeable when the light was on.
