This year I chose to come to Yancheng for the Chinese New Year and stayed at the InterContinental Yancheng Gangfu Hotel. Every staff member in the hotel lobby was warm and courteous, making us feel at home. The beautiful lobby restaurant and rich breakfast add to the flavor of the New Year. This time I want to thank the staff of the InterContinental Hotel Hong Kong from the bottom of my heart. On the way back from the hotel, I suddenly discovered that my leather suit was missing. I immediately called the front desk of the hotel. The young man at the front desk immediately helped me find it and contacted the courier for me. Send it back. Thank you to the young man at the hotel for caring about the guests' concerns. This spirit of wholehearted customer service is worthy of praise. I would also like to thank a hotel attendant named LISA who gave us a beautiful small gift when we left the hotel. Her warm smile made us feel like spring breeze. I also contacted LISA when I was looking for clothes, and she was also very helpful. . I would like to thank InterContinental Yancheng Gangfu Hotel again, thank you!

In addition, the restaurant on the second floor of the hotel is very good, so there is no need to go out for food. Marriott will still be my first choice when I come to Yancheng city in the future!

The room is quite spacious and the view outside the window is also very good. It's just that the furniture and appliances are quite old. But the hygiene is quite clean. The service was acceptable. One point was deducted because when we checked in, the front desk clerk did not tell us exactly where the elevator was for guest room check-in. As a result, I led two elderly people in their 80s with large and small bags. Xingli walked around in the lobby on the first floor. Moreover, in such a big hotel, there is no staff to deliver luggage in line, which is very inconvenient. Also, the breakfast in the hotel is not worth the 98 yuan at all. The milk is made from milk powder, and snacks such as small cakes are made from cheap plant-based cream. I probably won’t choose breakfast here again next time.

Super super recommend this hotel! Whether it is price, service or facilities, it is really first class! This hotel really makes me feel at home! He Yaqin in the lobby is really sincere service! Service attitude is particularly good! Cui Dongqin and Han Yuxia also sent small gifts when checking out, and must come to live! This is the best hotel I have ever stayed in Dongtai!
The hotel is located at No. 541, Hong Kong Road, Fucheng Street, Funing County, Jiangsu Province. Hong Kong Road is a street in the south center of Funing County and the administrative agency. The hotel is next to the government service hall; it is very close to the White Swan Park and a 10-minute drive to the Jinsha Lake scenic spot. The county hospital is 5 minutes away by car. There are many special restaurants around the hotel. It is about 5 minutes away from the bus terminal, 20 minutes away from the high-speed rail station, and about 2 minutes away from the commercial complex.The hotel is positioned as a mid-to-high-end hotel; the overall design is dominated by simple design, continuing the non-stressful color tone, and the natural feeling is the first impression when seeing Lixiang; the hotel rooms are equipped with high-grade mousse mattresses, central fresh air purification systems, intelligent guest control, Hitachi air conditioner, music bathing system, independent washing and drying integrated laundry room, gym, independent ground and underground parking lot, independent leisure courtyard and other supporting facilities are all available. We only start for the better! To provide you with an ideal and comfortable humanistic space!
AAlex-Chong2024.03.31
The overall feeling is OK, a little distance from the expectations. The hotel is located directly opposite the Suining County Public Security Bureau, full of security. The room area is quite large, the floor-to-ceiling windows are very good to see the street view, a room with 4 bottles of water, it is still very good, but the coffee is three in one, it is recommended to prepare coffee and fat foam in the future, so that customers have more choices. The beds are quite satisfactory, the hardness is moderate, the overall hygiene is good, the floor and walls are very clean, and the room and toilet have no smell. The TV is smart, quite big, you can cast screen (never tried). The bathroom is separated from wet and dry, the bath water temperature and water volume are very good, and the bath towels and towels are very clean. However, as a mid-to-high-end hotel, it is recommended that all room types should be equipped with bathrobes, not only administrative or above. The top shower of 512 is a bit faulty, but it does not affect the hand-held shower. It is recommended to repair it as soon as possible. There is also a flaw, there are melon seeds shells and candy paper that other customers have fallen into in the sofa seam, I hope that the details will be paid more attention when cleaning. The hotel's breakfast personally feels slightly inferior. There are freshly fried poached eggs and fresh noodles. There are 2 kinds of buns and vegetables in the middle. There are simple cakes in the pastry. I hope to add some in the future.

GG91We stayed at the hotel as a family. The check-in process was easy and
quick. Being able to check in at 9 a.m. was also great. The staff members were helpful and friendly. The room was nice and spacious.
The view is absolutely beautiful, and the area where the hotel is situated was very quiet and relaxing over the May holidays. Breakfast was lovely; there were Chinese and western food options.
Just a suggestion: with the floors of the room being dusty, it would be great if the hotel had basic cleaning equipment, especially for longer stays (I do not feel comfortable contacting the staff to clean the room, especially with the language barrier, so it would just be easy to do it myself quickly).
It would also be great if a microwave, plates, cutlery, and serving utensils could be included in rooms, especially for longer stays and for parents with children. Having rooms with a play area would also be awesome, and I would definitely pay more if the above were included.
There is also room service available from the cafe on the first floor, where drinks and sandwiches can be delivered to your room, or you can enjoy it downstairs with a great book from the library.
I would definitely stay at this hotel again.
GGuest UserI was surprised when I checked in. I didn't expect it to be living in the villagers' homes. The bosses took out one of the first floors of their houses to make a homestay.
After check-in, villagers will be led to the home. The first one, because there is no independent twin room in the house, I wanted to check out, but the front desk asked the villager to bring the ”two trees” homestay.
In fact, at the beginning, I refused to live in someone else's house. I always felt inconvenient, but I thought of going there, so let's experience it.
The boss and the proprietress of ”two trees” are very kind, (the previous is also very simple and kind, I did not expect it to be a room without a bathroom, the luggage was taken upstairs, when I couldn't say, the couple didn't have any complaints, still took my luggage downstairs and sent me).
Then talk about the experience of living for these two days. I have eaten and lived in the ”two trees” for the past two days. The boss and the proprietress are very attentive and considerate. After I went to the ”Red Crane Wetland” to play, I returned to the beautiful boss of the hotel and cooked the food. The capable beauty fried dishes are delicious. I ate a large plate of fried gourds by myself.
The boss who came back from work in the evening not only bought the special cakes of Yancheng for me to eat, but also listened to the boss's orders to wash the car for me.
Before I left, the proprietress also specially washed the peaches for me to take the car to eat.
Thank you for your handsome boss and beautiful boss, thank you for your caring and care, I wish you a lot of money, good luck, and happiness and sweetness forever!
XXinjingzhishuiThe hotel is located in the Financial City of Yancheng. It is within walking distance of Water Street, European Flower Street, Haiyan Museum, etc. Other attractions are not too far away and can be reached by bus. The surrounding restaurants are OK. Yonghe King, McDonald's, Yancheng Eight Bowls, Small Bowls and Lawson Convenience Store are all good. Its facilities and equipment do not look new but are well maintained, clean and hygienic. Especially the lady in the room has a good work attitude and good service, but I forgot her name, sorry. Worth recommending!

GGuest UserThe smart room is very convenient. You can operate the indoor facilities by shouting a small degree. The disadvantage is also a bit obvious. That is: opening the door will let the room enter the unmanned mode after about ten minutes. The bathroom is dry and wet separation type. The bathroom uses a smart toilet lid, which is very convenient. The attitude of the hotel staff is very good, the service is very good, after staying for two nights, we have upgraded the room type for us. The ladies are very friendly and the robot service is not bad hahahaha. By the way, the air conditioner needs to be turned on for a long time, and it can't be turned on in a small degree.
Ccui519A moderately touristed and well-served hotel during May 1st ~
Obviously, there are many self-driving guests around. The lobby sells local rock candy melons in boxes, and you can taste ~.
Breakfast is very good, the taste is very good 👍
The hotel environment is very good, walking around the hotel is also a kind of enjoyment. The hot spring is separate from men and women. I couldn't go with my children and went to the pool. The ground pool has a floor-to-ceiling window on a wall. In the evening, there are two of us. How can one be comfortable?
The staff at the pool and the front desk were very good. The tabletop in the breakfast room was very timely. The room service saw that I wanted to make milk powder and gave two more bottles of water. Thank you ~
The dinner packages during May 1st are very affordable, the price is moderate and the taste is good, and the amount of dishes is not small.
The grabbing machine in the lobby has two coins, one dollar and one coin, and the charge is quite conscience [strong]
It is the hotel's face record of the Yellow Sea Forest Park ticket is not available during the stay. On the morning of check-out, we wanted to take the children to Muyu Forest to play, but found that we couldn't brush it [halo] [halo]
AAnthony Gareth BaileyMy 2nd time in Dongtai, 1st time in Leida hotel. It looked good on the website.
1st impressions were good. Even though the staff spoke very limited English they checked me in efficiently (I do speak some Chinese but if you don't it's okay). The rooms are a good size and the big picture windows give great views over the public lake/park. the only downside was the faint aroma of stale cigarette smoke in the room but this is China and unfortunately to be expected.
The downside was the breakfast was very Chinese and though I love the cuisine here I'm not a lover of Chinese breakfast. It would have been better if the cook knew how to make fried eggs in different styles than just solid yokes and they invested in a good coffee machine. The coffee was in a flask....and was white....I didn't even try the bit I poured into a cup. The positive is Wuyue Plaza is a 10 minute stroll and has a Starbucks and MacDonalds!
I had a look at the gym and pool. Gym was 10 yuan, pool was 40. Both looked okay. The hotel grounds needed a bit of a tidy up but were okay. I couldn't find direct access into the lake/park area but then I was only there 2 nights.
The big convenience was Wuyue Plaza. The top floor was restaurants. A decent selection. Towards the back on the outside walking street was a decent little bar (Black Vine). Nice manager, 8 craft beer taps, lots of bottled beer.
Yes, I'd stay here again as it suited my purpose.
AAnonymous UserI didn't expect the weather to be so cold here when I came on a business trip. The front desk lady noticed and poured hot water for us. And opened us a room that had already been turned on and warmed by air conditioning. It was too warm. When I came to check out in the morning, I also asked us if we wanted to have breakfast before leaving. The breakfast room has local wontons and rounds that are really delicious!
The room environment is also good, there is a smell of washing powder on the sheets, indicating that it has really been changed, and there is no way to fool us. And when I left, there was a headset that was actually broken, but the cleaning aunt thought I forgot to take it and asked the front desk lady to contact me. I really need this kind of warm-hearted detail service when I go out! (˵¯͒〰¯͒˵)
PpotatoforestThe hotel environment is beautiful, the rooms are good, and the service needs to be improved in professionalism
One star for front desk service. On the day of check-in, the front desk staff said that an extra bed would be charged 200, but there was no card payment on site. Then when we left the hotel the next day, we took the initiative to tell the front desk that there was an extra bed fee. At that time, a different service staff told me seriously that you must have heard wrong. Our hotel charges 230 for an extra bed.
I said it was impossible that both my husband and I heard it wrong at the same time. I hope you can check with the person yesterday. She said that her colleague must have made a mistake yesterday. She also asked a colleague in front of us how much the extra bed in our hotel would cost. After getting the exact reply 230, he looked at us proudly, giving the impression that I didn't say it directly, but I proved to you that you were wrong. Then he said that he could freeze 230 yuan and wait until he contacted yesterday's waiter for verification before deducting the payment. If you only paid 200 yuan, the other 30 yuan would be deducted from the colleague's salary. If she said it wrong, she should be punished.
Anyway, I have never encountered this kind of situation before, and other hotels don't handle things this way. I didn't want to continue to bother with it, so I paid first.
Later, there was no reply from the hotel, and there was no so-called verification. Anyway, the words were unfounded. Although it was only a few dozen yuan, it wouldn't take a few minutes to give someone a phone call to explain clearly, right? Just for this perfunctory attitude and confusing things, it deserves a bad review.

GGuest UserThe room is well organized, tidy and hygienic, the room is large, fully equipped, and the room is quiet. Since we arrived early and did not have the room type we originally booked, the front desk gave us an upgraded room type. The service was polite and patient. Over 100 people showed 4-star service and great value for money!
妖妖妖stickyThe hotel is located inside the Dalong Lake Tourist Resort. After checking in, there is a special small transportation from the scenic spot to the hotel. However, the small transportation cannot reach the main entrance of the hotel at present. Therefore, if you go out with a lot of things, it is recommended to bring your own suitcase or backpack. . The whole scenic area is in the style of the ancient town, so the hotel is antique. The public area of the hotel is very beautiful, and the interior of the room is also of the same style. The overall tone is warm wood color & white & water blue, giving people a very comfortable feeling. The hotel's sound insulation is OK, and the overall is very quiet. It is especially friendly to people who sleep lightly like me. Hotel service is also very good, the waiter speaks softly. I especially like the hotel cafeteria. The front desk is a very good lady. The restaurant is not big but has a wide range of varieties. There is actually thirteen fragrant crayfish for dinner. The most important thing is that all the dishes taste good, which is unexpected. The room I stayed in this time is basically the same as the publicity photo. There are two rooms and one living room, which is especially suitable for family travel. The living room is actually very large, and then there are two separate rooms, one for the first and one for each with a bathroom. Overall, I am very satisfied.
There is a small bridge and flowing water when you go out of the hotel. There is also a cruise ship dock. The hotel lobby screen and the waiter have the activity schedule of the entire scenic spot that day.
