CCarolshixieVisited Chikan Ancient Town with family and booked the Jinxu Hotel. I think it was a great choice; the location is excellent.
I chose Jinxu because it's inside the scenic area and included tickets and breakfast, which felt like a good deal.
Upon arriving at the scenic area, I found the hotel to be very close to attractions like 'The Red Bride,' 'Modern Times,' the water theater 'Fire Show,' the God of Wealth Parade, and the Chikan Ancient Town station (for the铛铛 car), all within a 3-minute walk. It was incredibly convenient. When we got tired, we could quickly pop back to the hotel to rest and recharge.
Facilities: The hotel, opened in 2025, has good facilities. The main thing is that the rooms are spacious (we had a family room), with a sofa, making the overall environment comfortable. Although there were no smart control devices.
Cleanliness: Generally, the hygiene was good; it was clean and comfortable.
Service: The front desk staff provided good tourism services and guidance during the day, but there was no one there at night, and calls to the front desk from the room phone went unanswered. There's a free electric cart service from the North Gate to the hotel, and checking out allows for a waiver of 2 days' parking fees.
Breakfast: It was okay. The hot dishes weren't hot, but there was a live cooking station. We were originally supposed to eat at the restaurant to the right of the front desk, but in the morning, after taking the elevator down, we were directed to the restaurant on the left.
I recommend spending 2 days and 1 night in the town. Stay one night, and you can take great photos the next morning. There are four performances that require reservations, but you can only book two per day. Typically, if you arrive around 11 AM on the first day and then check in, you've already lost half a day of play, and the performances are tightly scheduled. One day is too rushed.
