This hotel is nestled within a scenic area, boasting a spacious lawn and numerous plane trees at its entrance – perfect for sunny photos. It's incredibly close to the gate of the Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum. The sun rises quite early in Nanjing; it was already out before 6 AM. When I went for my morning run, Plane Tree Avenue was already teeming with people.
It was a bit rainy on the day we arrived in Nanjing. Upon entering our room, we noticed a faint damp or musty smell from the floor. We promptly contacted the front desk and moved to a room on the 3rd floor. This floor was conveniently located right next to the laundry room, making it easy to wash clothes and hang them outside to sun-dry. There's also a gym next to the laundry room. What's more, we were surprised to find an air conditioner in the 3rd-floor hallway – quite a thoughtful touch! We later realized the hallway faces west, which gets very hot in the afternoons, so it was really considerate of the hotel to address this.
The breakfast restaurant is located near the elevator entrance on the first floor. The breakfast spread was extensive and delicious, and tables were cleared promptly. It seemed like a popular spot, judging by the crowd. Interestingly, the few times we tried Nanjing's famous Duck Blood and Vermicelli Soup during our trip, it was always at their breakfast buffet. As non-connoisseurs who simply enjoy a satisfying meal, we found it quite delicious!
The bathroom features a wet/dry separation. The drainage was a bit slow, but after we reported it to the front desk, it was addressed promptly. Otherwise, the hygiene was excellent.
The hotel provides parking, but it's advisable to check with the front desk beforehand for directions on how to drive in. On our arrival day, we walked from the subway station with a large suitcase. Trekking up that uphill section on a hot, humid summer day along Plane Tree Avenue was truly exhausting. We later learned from the front desk that navigating to the 'Jade Museum' (which is about 100 meters behind the hotel) makes it very convenient to get a Didi (ride-hailing service).
Overall, this hotel feels like a hidden gem, offering a tranquil escape from the bustling city. It's quite convenient for accessing different parts of the Zhongshan Scenic Area, though Plane Tree Avenue right outside the hotel is always lively with people, both morning and evening. I highly recommend it.
