The breakfast buffet was very good! Many options - including traditional Chinese breakfast foods and pastries. I really had hoped that they would have a small area of convenience items to purchase - apart from the vending machines. The WiFi was not strong enough to pull up any websites well.

I spent 3 nights at this hotel and it was a nice experience. Communication in English was a challenge but reception staff were able to communicate in basic English and they did try their best to make my stay comfortable. Hotel staff were warm and friendly, kudos to Mr Gu and Dolly. Breakfast was a buffet type and both continental and local Chinese foods served. I would recommend it !

I was very pleased with this hotel and have no complaints. It was very clean and comfortable. The breakfast had a variety of foods to choose from. The staff was the best, which is my reason for a five star review. I felt very welcomed and attended to. The location was perfect for the purpose of my trip. This hotel will be my first choice when I return to Zhengzhou. If anyone complains about this hotel then they are simply to picky.

Nice and clean hotel.
Stayed there for one night. It is a nice and clean place. The room is clean, the bed is comfortable. The non-smoking room is truly no-smoking, unlike many other hotels in China when non-smoking rooms smell like a smoking room. The breakfast is decent. Hotel staff is friendly. They helped me get a cab when getting a ride is hard sometimes.

We had a great stay: friendly staff, clean and well maintained rooms, and a decent breakfast buffet. Check out the park a hundred meters away down the road, it's a beautifully landscaped place full of weird and wonderful things. Will definitely be back!

Check the AC
Key point: Air conditioning in this and many other hotels is room specific not systemic to the whole hotel as I previously thought, I had a bad night followed by a terrible night because the AC was so weak.. I figured it was just the whole hotel's bad system and packed and was going to change hotels. But on way out I was chatting with another guest who said their room was really cold. So I asked to switch rooms which they did and it was great!! Had a great sleep!! Great AC in the new room on 10th floor. So really depends on the specific room. Everything else was kinda OK. For the money it was a steal. At breakfast you will get the calories you need but don't expect to really enjoy it. I travel with my own Costco/Starbucks Espresso blend coffee, brew cone and paper filters and favorite mug so I had a great cup of coffee every morning with breakfast!!! But this was a result of my own preparation and ingenuity and no thanks to the hotel (other than the water boiler which every room in China has).

Foreigners may struggle
Decent rooms, clean, but a bit dated. The breakfast buffet was standard HIE China fare. Good, but nothing special. Wi-Fi tends to fade during the day. I would not rely on it for business use. Unlimited bottled water was very helpful in the hot weather. You may want to pay a little more for a better experience. If you have the budget, Le Meredien or the Marriott are the top rated hotels in Zhengzhou.

Close to school and shopping
It is walking distance from the central shopping district on Jinshui and Weilai, as well as the Bank of China with foreign debit card friendly ATMs. The breakfast buffet is average, as with all HIE's in china, and there is unlimited bottled water for your room.

Not very conveniently located. Staff were a little unfriendly. Very little English spoken. Breakfast was limited for Western guests but there was a very good selection if you prefer a local Chinese style breakfast.

It's a no-grills hotel so you get what you pay for. The staff's extremely limited English made it difficult to communicate anything other than checking in or out. The breakfast buffet was mediocre.

Overall good hotel, for more than one night stay I would prefer have a fridge or minibar in my room. For one night good enough. Front desk personnel lack of fluent English but they can understand and put some effort on servicing.

Budget hotel in CBD
The hotel is located in the CBD and far from the railway stations, so this can be a bit inconvenient. It needs refubrishing in the common areas but the rooms are clean and well kept. It is noisy due to its national guests who have no respect for other people and are loud and unconsiderate. The restaurant could offer some snacks beside the all chinese food menu. Breakfast is good and the staff is service oriented and helpful. It is a good choice for the price.

The Hotel lobby is too small for so many rooms guests At peak hours there is hardly any place to sit to wait for Visitors. The external area and carpark has no maintainence with broken curbs and unswept driveway. Needs more landscaping.

Great hotel for the cost, but very little english
Very few employees speak english here at all. Any negative aspect that I experienced otherwise was likely an isolated insodent. I would have to say that this was a great hotel, and if you want to use a pool, there was one next door in the Sofit hotel for 120Y. Good restaurant selection, and you also have access to the Sofit hotel restaurants as well (connected buildings), although those were considerably much more expensive.

Very good hotel, could have more stars
I already stayed in hotels between 2 and 5 stars, so I have my experiences about hotels, and I can only say that this hotel could get more stars than just three, I can't compare it with usual three stars hotels, it was more like a four star one, in some details even like five. The room was very clean, the bed comfortable, the chair and desk like in a five star hotel, and also the bathroom was very nice, although small, but with separated compartments for toilet and shower. The location is ok, if you like to walk a bit you can reach McDonald's by foot.

Good service
I had booked this hotel through the website, and then called to let them know when I was arriving, because it was an evening arrival, and that I would need a shuttle. They advertise that they have a shuttle service. They told me that their shuttle would leave from a certain location at 7.20 pm. So I was pleasantly surprised when someone was standing at the arrival gate with my name on a sign. We went upstairs and went to a luxury car waiting at the kerb. Then the confusion began. The driver received a cellphone call from the hotel, and the person on the other end proceeded to tell me again where and when the shuttle would depart. I asked if this wasn't the shuttle service. After some back and forth it was established that yes this was the service. So I climbed into the car, and we waited. Even though I was the only passenger, the driver duly waited until 7.20 pm to depart! Oh, and be warned - the shuttle is provided free from the airport to the hotel. It is not free of charge from the hotel to the airport. That said, it was a comfortable ride and certainly better than the normal shuttle or taxi. The rest of the stay was pleasant. The staff were helpful, the room was good and clean, the bed was above average in comfort, and the breakfast buffet was also very good. The coffee was just OK, but at least it was brewed coffee and not merely instant coffee, which in my opinion is not really coffee. So I would certainly recommend this hotel to anyone staying for a short time in Zhengzhou.

Better than expected!
I have to admit, I am a budget traveler and often stay in hostels and guesthouses. I booked the Holiday Inn Express because I had a coupon! That aside, I do think this is a good hotel even for those who are used to traveling on a higher budget than mine. The room was very clean and comfortable. It included a choice in pillows (hard or soft) and there was a small loveseat in the room. There was a decent selection of English channels on TV. The buffet breakfast was pretty good as there was a mix of Chinese and western food on offer. The staff was fairly friendly, but I'm not sure on their English speaking ability (I can speak Chinese). The location is also good--near the city center. Taxis are very cheap (as long as you can catch one--be sure to have an address in Chinese) you'll be able to get anywhere fairly quickly without paying much.

Wait until the refurbishment is finished
From the description I was not expecting the hotel to be so dated and 'well worn'. The furniture, decor and finishes looked about 20 years old, very well used and damaged. The carpet was ridged and threadbare. Grateful we were only there for 2 nights. The hotel is being refurbished - I would wait until it is finished before going there. We struggled with night staff and language. The internet worked well though
