Jinling Mandarin Garden Hotel Nanjing

Staying at Jinling Mandarin Garden Hotel Nanjing was an absolute delight from start to finish. The service was exceptional—warm, attentive, and genuinely thoughtful. Upon arrival, we were upgraded to a better room without any request, which immediately set the tone for a wonderful stay. With a young child and elderly family member traveling with us, getting up early for breakfast was tough. The hotel kindly packed a breakfast box and brought it straight to our room—such a lifesaver! The next morning, the restaurant manager even remembered us and proactively offered to prepare a special breakfast for our little one. That level of personal care truly touched me. Every staff member we encountered—from the security team and bell staff to the front desk and housekeeping managers—was polite, efficient, and went out of their way to help. The room managers, Li and Fan, responded instantly to any need, and the dining team led by Manager Wang Yan and Wu Li made sure every detail was perfect. Even at checkout, they surprised my child with a cute fridge magnet as a farewell gift. This is the kind of hotel that makes you feel like family. A true gem in Nanjing—exceptional service, great location, and unforgettable hospitality. I’ll definitely be back.

in N&S MEN DONG Hotel

Staying at in N&S MEN DONG Hotel was such a delightful experience from the moment I walked in. The aesthetic is absolutely charming—minimalist yet warm, with a cozy atmosphere that instantly put me at ease. I was greeted by two adorable blue cats, Xiao Nan and Xiao Bei—Xiao Nan’s a bit leaner, while Xiao Bei has a rounder, cuddly frame. They added such a personal touch to the stay! The service was incredibly thoughtful; ordering takeout was seamless, and it was delivered straight to my room without any hassle. Even though the hotel sits just one wall away from the lively vibe of Old Gate East, it remained surprisingly quiet at night and peaceful during the day—no noise pollution whatsoever. The scent upon entering was subtle but inviting, like fresh linen and woodsy notes blending together. One small but brilliant detail: even when I left the room without my key card, the central air conditioning kept running, maintaining a perfectly consistent temperature throughout. That kind of attention to comfort really shows how much care goes into every little detail. This place isn’t just a hotel—it feels like a home away from home. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a calm, stylish retreat in the heart of Nanjing.

Holiday Inn Nanjing Xuanwu Lake

Checked in the afternoon and was warmly welcomed by Wang Chaofan at reception—he went above and beyond to upgrade us to a lake-view room as requested. The room was spotless, well-equipped, and even featured a private balcony overlooking Xuanwu Lake. Waking up to misty morning views of the lake felt like stepping into a painting—serene, peaceful, and truly memorable. We stopped by the trendy Double Track Coffee nearby and enjoyed a cup of Moon Coffee. It was the perfect spot for a cozy moment with my partner—great vibes and great photos! The hotel’s proximity to the metro made exploring the city effortless. We walked to Old Gate East, Confucius Temple, and the Qinhuai Lantern Festival under light rain—strolling through ancient alleys felt magical and so relaxing. On our second day, after checking out, we stored our luggage and visited Chicken Bell Temple. A simple bowl of vegetarian noodles and three incense sticks brought a deep sense of calm and spiritual connection to this historic site. Before heading back home by high-speed train, we returned to the hotel to collect our bags and rested briefly at the lobby bar. The staff there were friendly and attentive—such a warm way to end our trip. Nanjing exceeded expectations. I’ll definitely be back!

Shanshui Hotel

We stayed at Shanshui Hotel in Nanjing during the Lunar New Year holiday with our entire family, and it was one of the most enjoyable trips we’ve had. The city itself radiates warmth and charm, but the hotel truly made the experience unforgettable. Located just a 5-minute walk from the subway station, getting around was effortless—no need to worry about driving or parking fees, which can be crazy high here. The room was cozy and well-designed, with excellent soundproofing so we could sleep peacefully. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive—from check-in, they kindly advised us that Nanjing’s attractions are all within easy reach via public transit or taxi, making car rentals unnecessary. Breakfast was a highlight: a wide variety of delicious, fresh options, including their homemade salted duck, which was so good we even bought two to take home. Bonus points for the hotel’s unique atmosphere—being part of a provincial geological bureau, the lobby features beautiful mineral specimens and artisan crafts on display (and available for purchase!). Plus, right next door is the Geological Museum, perfect for kids and adults alike who love science and nature. It’s rare to find such a thoughtfully designed, family-friendly hotel with both comfort and educational value. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Nanjing.

Manxin Mansion Nanjing Confucius Temple Laomendong

Staying at Manxin Mansion Nanjing Confucius Temple Laomendong was such a delightful experience—seriously, it’s the perfect balance of city buzz and peaceful retreat. Located just steps from Yuhua Men Metro Station, everything I wanted to see was within a 10-15 minute walk: Laomendong Ancient Street, Da Baoren Temple, and the Luozhou Park Lantern Festival were all super accessible. I booked the Courtyard King Room, and wow—the view from the window felt like having my own private garden. The room itself was beautifully designed with smart tech and high-end finishes, plus a complimentary mini-bar. The front desk even has a resident cat—adorable and so welcoming! The garden area is serene and perfect for sipping tea or just relaxing while watching the river and ancient city walls. Staff were incredibly warm and attentive—service that truly feels personal, almost like a five-star hotel. Free Song-style afternoon tea? Yes, please! And the late-night snack pack was a nice surprise—just a simple bowl of congee with pickled vegetables, comforting and satisfying. Breakfast was absolutely outstanding—full of authentic Nanjing flavors. The small duck oil sesame sugar bao was deliciously fragrant, the salted duck was juicy and perfectly seasoned, and the fresh egg pancake was healthy and scrumptious. Don’t miss the freshly ground black sesame paste—it’s rich, aromatic, and pure comfort. Every detail here screams quality and thoughtfulness. This place isn’t just a stay—it’s an experience. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Nanjing.

Crystal Orange Nanjing Presidential Palace Zhongshan East Road Hotel

I absolutely love this Crystal Orange hotel! The location is unbeatable—just a short walk to the Presidential Palace and super convenient for exploring downtown Nanjing. What truly stood out was the laundry service—clean, well-maintained machines and staff who went above and beyond to help. Even more impressive: I accidentally left my Apple Pencil behind, and the team actually found it and returned it to me! I was genuinely touched—this kind of care is rare. Every staff member I interacted with was friendly, professional, and genuinely committed to making our stay special. It’s not just a hotel—it feels like staying at a second home.

Atour Hotel Nanjing Presidential Palace

We stayed in Nanjing for five nights, and after two less-than-satisfying days elsewhere, we switched to this hotel for the last three—and it was a perfect upgrade. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, the room was spotlessly clean, and all amenities were modern and well-maintained. One small but thoughtful touch: there’s a display on the TV showing how many washing machines are available at any time, so you don’t waste time walking down only to find them all in use. That little detail made laundry day stress-free. The location is fantastic—right next to Liu Chang Xing for great local food, and just a short walk from key attractions like the Presidential Palace, Six Dynasties Museum, Piliu Temple, and the Comfort Station Exhibition Hall. We didn’t get a chance to visit the Memorial Hall of the Victims of the Nanjing Massacre this time, but I’m already planning a return trip—definitely coming back here. Oh, and while booking through the platform, it mentioned complimentary late-night porridge. We didn’t ask for it, so we missed out—but if you’re staying here, don’t forget to request it! It’s a nice surprise worth taking advantage of.

Staying at Qinhuai Ten Miles · Former Residence of Empress Jiajing of the Ming Dynasty · Xingyuan Hotel with my furry friend was an absolute delight—far beyond what I expected! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 What truly stood out? No pet cleaning fee whatsoever. In a world where many hotels tack on extra charges under the guise of pet-friendly policies, this genuine commitment to guest comfort is refreshingly rare. The room was immaculately clean—no trace of pets at all—and the bedding was soft and cozy, so much so that both my dog and I slept like babies. Staff members greeted my pup with warm smiles and friendly waves, making the whole experience feel personal and welcoming. Location-wise, it’s just steps away from Old Gate East, and getting around to Confucius Temple is super easy via public transit. Plus, parking is completely free—what a win! This hotel isn’t just pet-friendly; it’s thoughtfully designed for travelers who value kindness, cleanliness, and convenience. I’ll definitely be back, and I’d happily recommend it to any fellow pet owner looking for a stress-free, heartwarming stay.

Atour Light (Nanjing Xinjiekou, Daxinggong Metro Station)

This hidden gem in Nanjing completely exceeded my expectations — from check-in to checkout, every single detail was spot-on. Located just across the street from Exit 3 of Daxinggong Metro Station, it’s a mere 200-meter walk to the platform, and the Line 3 subway makes getting from Nanjing South Railway Station to Xinjiekou or the 1912 District a breeze. Walking distance to landmarks like the Presidential Palace and the Six Dynasties Museum, plus nearby Ke Xiang Food Street with must-try treats like Taoji Lotus Root Pancakes and egg burgers — dining and exploring are effortless. Parking is a big win for self-drive travelers — the hotel has a private courtyard parking area right behind the building, which shows how thoughtful they are about guest convenience. The service? Absolutely heartwarming. I arrived late at night, and the front desk staff greeted me with genuine warmth, even upgraded my room without hesitation and handed over a complimentary face mask. When I mentioned needing to send a package, they immediately arranged for SF Express to pick it up that same night — delivered by next morning. For families, they proactively provided children’s slippers and small gifts, and even brought outside food directly to my room. On checkout, I was handed a chilled bottle of mineral water — little touches that make you feel truly cared for. The room itself is clean, spacious, and beautifully designed with a modern minimalist aesthetic. No off-gassing from new construction — just a fresh, calming atmosphere enhanced by subtle fragrance. The bedding is part of Atour’s signature 'Planet' series: soft yet supportive, perfect for deep sleep.

The common areas include a 24-hour self-service laundry, fitness center, and a cozy book exchange lounge — ideal for relaxing during long travel days. Breakfast is fantastic — a well-balanced mix of local favorites like duck blood vermicelli soup, plus Western-style options like waffle bar, yogurt bar, and fresh fruit smoothies. Quick to grab-and-go if you’re rushing, but also perfect for a leisurely start to the day. Despite being near a busy street, soundproofing is excellent — the room stays quiet and peaceful throughout the night. Free high-speed Wi-Fi and round-the-clock front desk support mean this works equally well for business trips or family getaways. Overall, this stay wasn’t just good — it was unforgettable. Exceptional hospitality, unbeatable location, top-tier facilities, and incredible value. I’ll definitely be coming back on my next trip to Nanjing, and I highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting the city. You won’t be disappointed.

Guildford Hotel

Staying at Guildford Hotel near Confucius Temple and Old Gate East was an absolute delight. The location couldn’t be better—right next to the historic district, making it super easy to explore on foot. The hotel facilities are excellent, with clean, comfortable rooms and a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Breakfast was one of the highlights—a generous buffet offering a wide variety of options, including authentic Nanjing specialties like duck blood vermicelli soup and salted duck. The soup was rich and flavorful, made with real ingredients—no shortcuts or low-quality scraps, unlike some street vendors. The kitchen staff, especially the kind lady in charge, and the restaurant attendant were incredibly friendly and attentive, making us feel truly at home. One tip for guests visiting in August: if you’re planning to take a taxi back, try to arrive before 6 PM. The area often gets crowded, leading to temporary traffic restrictions that can delay your return. Despite this small caveat, the overall experience was outstanding. This is a fantastic choice for travelers who value location, quality, and genuine hospitality. I’d definitely stay here again.
