The most beautiful classic Chinese style hotel we ever have stayed in China 😃👌 We additionally got a free upgrade to a suite, which was simply perfect. The service is outstanding helpful and friendly. The location in the old town is definitely the best and highest level in Nanjing. - We would love to stay again here.

It’s the second time we visited the hotel. It’s location is just beautiful at the entrance of the old quarter in Nanjing. At day or night you can see wonderful streets and the hotel garden is beautiful as well.
This time the service was a bit slow and incomplete. They also mixed up the rooms a bit and the English level can be improved. The breakfast was okay and of good quality but a bit basic - for the high price it could have been better.

Such a classy hotel for a romantic getaway. The nearby Fuzimiao and Qinhuaihe are overrated as attractions but the hotel has the hidden gem of a lovely Jieziyuan courtyard. An early morning stroll to the city wall is also a pleasure.

Hotel is within walking distance to many attractions in Nanjing (Fuzi Temple, Old East Gate) and these places turn incredibly stunning at night. Facilities, cleanliness and amenities are what you would expect at a 5 star hotel and it is within the confines of a traditional picturesque garden which guests can access 24/7. Slightly disappointed that the Chinese Opera Show is only available on Fridays and Saturdays.

Amazing
Posted on Feb 1, 2025
The hotel has a strong Jiangnan garden atmosphere, with its own small garden. The breakfast is not very rich, but it tastes good. It is in the Laomendong market, and you can walk around the Jiangnan streets and alleys when you go out. The atmosphere of the New Year is full. It is also very close to the Confucius Temple, which takes about 10 minutes to walk to. The only drawback is that there are many people during the New Year, and it is very congested to take a taxi from the hotel, so it is best to walk out of the scenic spot and then take a taxi. The atmosphere of the New Year in Nanjing is very strong. It is worthy of being the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties. The food is also very good, and the people of Nanjing are also very friendly. Overall, it is a good experience to travel during the Spring Festival.

The location of the hotel is very convenient. It is right at the entrance to the Laomendong Scenic Area. There are bustling tourists outside the hotel. The hotel is quiet and cozy. The rooms are decorated in various antique styles. It is very convenient to go directly to the Mustard Garden from the inside of the hotel during your stay. The garden is small but exquisite, very suitable for daydreaming and relaxing. The service of the lady at the front desk is enthusiastic, and the welcome fruits and cakes sent by the hotel are also very exquisite. It is suitable for a short vacation stay.
