Nice hotel but unfortunately a bit far from everything, the guest hospitality and service is great and the staff is very friendly. Something could have been better such as the cleaning, the breakfast buffet and also that you could choose your own temperature in the room, which now was lacking which made us sleep in a very hot room our first night. The staff gave us a fan the second night which made it a little bit better. The hotel offers amenities such as toothbrush, toothpaste, water etc which is really good. Overall a good hotel for the price but next time visiting Nanjing we will stay somewhere that is closer to everything.
Response from Property: Dear Guest, Thank you for choosing our hotel for your stay in Nanjing and for sharing your feedback. Our hotel is located in a quiet yet convenient area, surrounded by famous attractions such as Xuanwu Lake, Purple Mountain, Plum Blossom Hill, Jiming Temple, and Hongshan Forest Zoo. We are about 1 km from Line 4 Metro Station, and multiple bus lines are right outside our doorstep, making transportation very convenient. If needed, we’d be happy to provide you with more details about nearby transportation and sightseeing options. We sincerely apologize that our cleanliness, breakfast, and room temperature did not meet your expectations. Your feedback is invaluable, and we will double our efforts to improve in these areas. Should you encounter any issues during your stay, please don’t hesitate to inform our staff—we will do our utmost to address them promptly. We truly hope to welcome you back in the future and give you the opportunity to experience our improvements firsthand. IHG Social Listening Team

A good choice for budget travelers! The rooms are clean and comfortable, though the hotel itself could use some updates. They offer a simple Chinese breakfast with a few Western options. The reception staff are friendly and willing to help.

Location is good. Many restaurants nearby, parking space is limited to 10 cars.
Response from Property: Dear guest, thank you for sharing this review. The hotel is located in a convenient location with complete surrounding facilities. The subway station of Line 4 is within walking distance, and there are many famous scenic spots nearby. Parking spaces around the hotel are rather limited. There are only a few parking spaces available for guests to use free of charge at the hotel entrance. A friendly reminder: there is a large paid parking lot in Baima Park next to the hotel. We hope our guests can feel more relaxed whether they are on business or traveling. We look forward to your next visit. IHG Social Listening Team

Great location. Clean. The only downside was no air conditioning. They said it wasn't working, so brought us fans, but it was pretty hard to sleep in the heat. Great front desk staff! Close to the lake and park.

Comfortable, sizeable room located close to old town and near the conference I was attending. Staff was efficient and kind (although needed a little help checking in passport-holding guests). To be fair, I believe the room came with a warning, but there is absolutely NO soundproofing and we could easily hear neighbors and people in the hallway, so bring earplugs if you need silence to sleep. Beds are on the harder side (normal for China). Breakfast is standard Chinese, which I personally enjoy, but others may not.
Response from Property: Dear guest,Thank you for taking the time to share your candid review.We are pleased to hear that you were satisfied with the rooms and staff service.We apologise that the soundproofing did not meet your expectations. We appreciate your comments and will share them with our team. We do hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back in the future to provide you with an even better experience.

Excellent service. Located near the lake and next to some good restaurants. Just a bit of an uphill walk to and from the nearest metro

Check-In: Was fast and easy. Took the minimal amount off time. But the front desk wasn’t too experienced with members privileges. Thus making it a below average experience. Hygiene: The cleanliness is average, a bit dusty. And the carpets have seen better days. Breakfast : Is decent, enough to choose from. Beds: Are very comfortable.
Response from Property: Dear guest,Thank you for taking the time in leaving us a review on your stay with us. We are sorry to hear that your room was not really clean.We will certainly review our cleanliness and do an extra cleaning work on it.We apologize that your recent stay did not meet expectations.

We sincerely hope it did not mar your experience at our hotel.We look forward to exceeding expectations on your next stay. IHG Social Listening Team
