Boutique Hotels in Jiangsu, China

Specifically came to Suzhou's Dongshan for the white jade loquats this weekend, but opted not to stay at Dongshan Hotel this time. Instead, we drove an hour back to the city to stay at Wu Palace. It was my first time here, and our room was on the first floor. The lobby is on the third floor, so we had to take the elevator down to the first floor, then navigate a bit to find our room. With two elderly people, it was a little inconvenient. However, my family unanimously agreed that the hotel's ambiance is quite unique, and decided that next time we visit Suzhou, we'll definitely choose Wu Palace again (they specifically told me to book a room on the 3rd floor)😁. It's loquat season now, and the two loquat trees in the courtyard are perfectly in theme. Amidst the white walls and black tiles, loquats hang from the branches. I woke up early to snap a few photos📸 of the loquat trees. Being under the trees, everything felt so fresh🤤.

The hotel's location is excellent, right in front of the Ancient Grand Canal. It's also a short walk from Dongguan Ancient City Tower (the entrance to Dongguan Street) and not far from Geyuan Garden, Heyuan Garden, and Pishi Street. The hotel has its own underground parking, which is very convenient. The staff are welcoming and friendly. Overall, I had a great stay and would definitely consider staying here again if I have the chance.

This stay at the Shangri-La was great! It's super convenient for both the subway 🚇 and taxis 🚗, and just three subway stops away from the popular Confucius Temple. The hotel itself is elegant and comfortable. The breakfast buffet on the second floor offers a wide variety of delicious options. In the lobby, the café on the first floor is perfect for a relaxed afternoon tea ☕, and they even have a live singer from 7 PM to 10 PM. My room was clean and tidy, and the staff were all very friendly, always greeting me with a smile and proactively asking if I needed any help. It was a really enjoyable trip! Highly recommended 👍

The room was incredibly clean and tidy, and the view from the 69th floor was absolutely unbeatable, offering a panoramic sweep of Nanjing. The hotel butler service was exceptionally attentive, always proactively helping us out. Plus, the breakfast spread was so diverse and delicious; my little one even had two bowls of noodles this morning! Oh, and the hotel's location is perfect—right in the heart of the city, making it super convenient for dining and sightseeing. Next time I'm in Nanjing, I'm definitely staying here again! 👍

We had a fantastic stay at Hotel Andu! A beautiful hotel in a very central location. Through a small entrance you reach the second floor, where you find a peaceful oasis of calm. Beautiful, quiet rooms with a very comfortable bed, a great shower and a fridge stocked with water and soft drinks. The breakfast was also well taken care of. What really made the difference was the service: extremely friendly and helpful staff, including assistance with arranging transport. Highly recommended!

Choosing this hotel for my Yangzhou trip was absolutely the best decision! The experience was fantastic from the moment I arrived – the security guard proactively helped open the car door and carry my luggage, and the front desk staff were gentle and efficient, getting me checked in within 3 minutes. The room features smart voice control, and it's fully equipped with a Dyson hairdryer, smart toilet, and capsule coffee machine. The bedding was so comfortable I didn't want to get out of bed! The biggest surprise was the amazing balcony view; I could see the beautiful sunset in the evening! Room service deliveries are handled by a cute and convenient robot. The location is superb, very close to Slender West Lake and Dongguan Street. For breakfast, they even offered authentic Gaoyou salted duck eggs – rich and oily, perfect with white porridge! The parking lot also has charging stations, which is a huge plus for electric vehicles. Upon checkout, the butler even gifted me some Yangzhou Niupitang (a local candy) as a souvenir. A hotel with such perfect hardware, service, and attention to detail is truly rare in Jiangsu. I'll definitely be booking this place again on my next visit to Yangzhou! 💯

Ten days at Jinling Hotel gave us something more precious than just good service – it gave us friendship. Through this platform, I want to sincerely express our family's gratitude to Jinling Hotel Nanjing. Thank you to every staff member who offered us their warm assistance during our most difficult and helpless moments. We checked into Jinling Hotel on May 12th. On the evening of May 13th, I unfortunately fell and got injured. What followed deeply moved us. That night, Manager Guo, who was on duty at the concierge desk, personally helped me purchase medicine and crutches online and had them delivered to our room. He also proactively communicated with relevant departments to arrange all the necessary details for my orthopedic doctor's appointment the next day. It was past 3 AM by the time everything was settled. That night, though we were far from home, our hearts felt incredibly at peace. Early on the morning of May 14th, Supervisor Zhang, who was on duty in the lobby, specifically arranged for a young staff member, Xiao Guan, to accompany us to the hospital. He repeatedly instructed Xiao Guan on every detail of accompanying a patient: how to ensure our safety, how to assist with the medical procedures... That kind of family-like care instantly warmed our hearts. And Xiao Guan certainly lived up to that trust. He was enthusiastic, meticulous, and vibrant, accompanying us for the consultation, X-rays, queueing for payments, picking up medicine, and arranging taxis for our round trip. He was like our own child, giving us a sense of reliance in a foreign place. Li Hong and Liu Yan from housekeeping also provided meticulous help after my injury. When they learned the doctor required me to lie flat with my feet elevated to heart level, Li Hong immediately brought hard pillows to prop up my feet. Fearing I couldn't go out for fresh air, she promptly opened the small window for ventilation. She also thoughtfully provided hangers and patiently taught us how to use the equipment to dry clothes. To ensure we could recover in peace, they brought a fruit platter every day. Li Hong even specially got a tightening strap from the engineering department to reinforce the underarm pads of my crutches. All these tangible acts of care warmed and deeply touched us. I want to say that it is the excellent qualities of each and every one of you that form the most brilliant team image of Jinling Hotel. You are the best calling card for Jinling Hotel. I hope more people will know our story, and I also hope that more friends visiting Nanjing will definitely stay at Jinling – here, you will find the 'home away from home' experience you desire, and even more, a warm, family-like experience. Sincere thanks to Jinling Hotel, for cultivating such a high-quality, excellent team with so much heart!

When I booked, I saw that it was a newly opened hotel, so I thought it would be pretty good. And it definitely exceeded my expectations. Several young men were there to help us as soon as we entered, and the manager helped us upstairs, opened the door, and carried our luggage. Most importantly, the room didn't have that unpleasant smell of new renovations; even the elevator smelled nice. The room was also much more spacious than other hotels in the same price range, clean and comfortable. We had a very comfortable stay, and both adults and children were very satisfied with the breakfast. In short, it was truly excellent and fantastic. There were some services we didn't get to experience this time due to time constraints, but I'll definitely stay at this hotel again next time I have the chance. The pictures were taken before check-out. I sincerely recommend it, hence this positive review. I hope it continues to be this good.

An absolutely fantastic experience, I have to give it a huge, enthusiastic thumbs-up! The hotel facilities are very new and incredibly well-maintained, with all the little details exuding that 'old money' charm. The location is also excellent, not far from all the famous attractions, making it super convenient. I particularly want to commend the service; all the staff were wonderful, especially the ladies at the front desk. They were so thoughtful and attentive, proactively upgrading my room type and showing such kindness to my child. When we checked out, they even specially custom-made a souvenir room key card for my little one! The duck blood vermicelli soup at breakfast was also delicious, and you could even order various types of eggs, haha!

I had a wonderful experience with my 1 year old son at the intercontinental. Because it was his first birthday the hotel decorated the room for him and I’m really appreciative of that. The room was clean and spacious, Room service was good and the staff really went out of their way to help and accommodate us. I wish they had children’s menu to make things better when traveling with a baby. However, the hotel did help me by making vegetable sides for my child. I’ve stayed at this hotel countless times and I’d recommend it to anyone. Happy New Year 🎆
