This time I came to Nanjing Gaochun on a business trip, and I specially booked a hotel relatively close to Nanjing South Railway Station. Nanjing Lakeside Jinling Hotel is just near Nanjing South Railway Station, and it has the local old-fashioned characteristics of Nanjing, so I directly booked the hotel's garden view balcony king room.
Hotel location and environment:
The hotel is located by Baijia Lake, No. 8 Jiahu East Road, Jiangning District, 5.6 kilometers away from Nanjing South Railway Station, a 15-minute drive, with convenient transportation. There are three major shopping malls within a 1.5-kilometer walk, including Baijia Lake 1912, Golden Eagle International Shopping Center and Jingfeng Center, and the surrounding supporting facilities are complete. The hotel is adjacent to Baijia Lake, facing the lake on three sides, and has more than 100 acres of natural gardens. The hotel's exterior is simple, the lobby is elegant, and the hotel has a Jiangnan garden, a scene at every step, quiet and comfortable. There are many photos of celebrities dining and staying in the hotel corridor, highlighting the popularity of the hotel.
Hotel facilities:
The hotel is equipped with a large number of free parking spaces and charging spaces, as well as a lake view gym, indoor swimming pool and conference hall, which can meet the needs of fitness and business meetings. The overall facilities are very complete and can respond to the various needs of guests. However, since the hotel was built in 2001 and has been in operation for 23 years, the facilities are relatively old.
Hotel rooms and services:
My overall business trip to Nanjing is 2 days and 1 night. I booked a large bed room with a garden balcony. The guest room is a manor-style building with three floors. I stayed on the first floor. The floor-to-ceiling window opens to the hotel garden. The scenery is very good, but it is also prone to mosquitoes. The room is about 30 square meters, with a simple and generous design, simple and elegant decoration, and a slightly old-fashioned equipment in the room. It is equipped with a Honeywell knob switch central air conditioner, and the temperature control is relatively slow. In addition, there is no main light in the room, and the lighting depends entirely on table lamps and wall lamps, and the overall light is dim. The room is equipped with a Mini bar, and there are Coke and Sprite in the refrigerator for drinking.
The overall room is quiet and comfortable, and the view outside the window is pleasant, but the equipment is relatively old. For guests who have certain requirements for convenience, the stay experience may be somewhat different.
Hotel catering:
The hotel breakfast area is an open area in the lobby. Through the floor-to-ceiling windows in the lobby, you can see the pleasant garden scenery in the hotel. The breakfast variety is very rich, mainly Chinese stalls, with many local specialties to choose from. After breakfast, the restaurant staff will take the initiative to ask for tea and coffee needs and deliver them to the table. There is also a fresh juicer, which can be squeezed on site by yourself. It is fresh, delicious and healthy, and there is also homemade milk tea from the hotel, which is also very delicious~ The breakfast noodle stall is very distinctive. You can choose Nanjing old stewed noodles or handmade wontons, which can be served with various toppings. The small blackboard also has slogans such as "A want spicy oil, A want coriander". Nanjing old braised noodles, Jinling big fried dough sticks with Nanjing salted duck, it is very pleasant to eat delicious food while enjoying the garden scenery~
Around the hotel:
After taking a break, I had the opportunity to visit the nearby Baijia Lake 1912. The whole area is indeed very lively and youthful. There is also a landmark facility, Baijia Lake Ferris Wheel, and many young people go shopping and play here~
Since then, the overall stay experience is still good. Lakeside Jinling Hotel provides a quiet and elegant stay environment, efficient check-in service and rich and delicious breakfast service, but I hope that the hotel can appropriately upgrade facilities and equipment while maintaining the simplicity and elegance, and improve the check-in automation experience.
