10/10 Excellent
"Was apprehensive when I read reviews about the hotel cleanliness. That was all dispelled when I was checked in. Lobby was grand and check in was quick. My room on the 9th floor was new and modern. Room was spacious and the king size bed was big. Review mentioned the water pressure was weak but when I used it, it was strong and adequate. See video. Aircon was cold, room had full length mirror and hair dryer which ticked all my boxes. Only complain is the mini bar fridge was not cold at all. Wifi could also be better but that could be due to China’s firewall. Else hotel room was great. The location of the hotel is also fantastic. It’s next to the Nanjing Pedestrian Road which is so convenient to walk slowly down to the bund with many shopping malls and shops/eateries along the way. Michelin guided Lai Lai dumpling with its delicious crab roe is just across. Hotel pick up and drop off for Didi is also super convenient. At check out, the hotel kindly acceded to my request for an hour later check out too. Absolutely top class service."

"I never write hotel reviews but this one was special to me. It was my birthday coming up and they arranged to have a cake delivered to my room! It was a small cake, so please don't give your expectations up reading this review, but it was a perfect size for me. I was just so touched that they would go above and beyond for me, especially when it was not my birthday until after my stay. This service alone is worth 10 stars."
