The hotel's location is superb, just a few minutes' walk to Deji Plaza, with an abundance of dining, entertainment, and shopping options nearby. The lobby offers complimentary ice drinks and snacks all day, which is an absolute lifesaver when you walk into the hotel after experiencing Nanjing's heat. The room isn't huge but perfectly adequate, and the hygiene is good, with a separate wet and dry area in the bathroom. It's a hotel with excellent value for money.

This hotel was a hidden gem for my short trip – such a pleasant surprise! It's incredibly conveniently located near tourist attractions. The hotel itself is elegant, quiet, and peaceful. The rooms are cozy, comfortable, and impeccably clean. The bed was very comfortable, and the toiletries and storage facilities were all complete. The staff, Mango, Orange, and Apple, were warm, friendly, and efficient in processing my check-in. Overall, it was a wonderful experience, and I've already recommended it to my friends!

My trip to Nanjing this time was mainly for Na Ying's concert. Besides the Nanjing Museum, I skipped all the other popular attractions, dedicating my time instead to areas with a strong local vibe, like the Ming Palace Ruins Park and Xiaoxihu. For accommodation, I chose The Lalu, which is a bit out of the city center. This actually put me closer to the concert venue, but more importantly, I wanted to set aside some time for a hotel staycation. The Lalu certainly didn't disappoint. The unbeatable river view goes without saying, and strolling through the gardens was an excellent experience; taking my time, I even stumbled upon a weekend celadon ocarina performance. The Water Sha Lian Chinese restaurant was also unexpectedly good; almost every dish was impressive. By the end, I was even seriously contemplating which dishes would be suitable to pack and take back to Beijing. On the second morning at The Lalu, there was a small hiccup, but the customer service manager quickly stepped in with a solution, and the communication was very sincere. So, it didn't affect the overall experience at all. I really have to commend them for that; it actually made me trust their service capabilities even more, and I'm now planning to visit The Lalu in Qingdao for another experience.

This is my second stay here, and it's still fantastic! The bellboy at the entrance proactively helped with our luggage. The front desk staff clearly explained all the day's activities. The breakfast buffet had a great variety, and the kids' activities were really engaging. The pool water was also very clean. Our dedicated housekeeper and Manager Zhou would send us the daily activity schedule, and they were always responsive to our requests. Angel Raina, our butler, patiently helped us with all sorts of issues big and small during our trip. It's exactly this kind of reliable service you hope for when on vacation. The evening variety show left a truly deep impression on us. We hope to meet again here next year.

Service: Every staff member, from the front desk to housekeeping to the breakfast team, was incredibly warm and attentive. They patiently answered all my questions and diligently cleaned the room, replenishing necessities promptly. The restaurant recommended by the front desk lady was excellent, with delicious food. I was even allowed a late checkout for one room and received a small snack when leaving. Environment: The environment was also great. Although located in the bustling Qinhuai commercial district, it offers a peaceful retreat. The entrance isn't grand, but security is top-notch. Food deliveries are brought to the room by a robot, and the room itself is spacious. The bathroom drainage worked well, and the showerhead, while looking a bit vintage, had excellent water pressure. Toiletries were replenished regularly, and the three-zone separation meant we didn't disturb each other. Hygiene: Cleaning was timely, and they were responsive to customer requests. The bathroom drain was cleaned daily, and it didn't clog once during my 7-night stay, which was very reassuring. Facilities: The facilities are quite comprehensive. The Xiao Du smart assistant controls everything, which is very convenient. The toilet is also smart, though we only used its basic functions. The breakfast tasted good; I was very satisfied with the English breakfast, wontons, and plain noodles. Perhaps because of its proximity to the commercial district, not many people ate breakfast at the hotel, so the accompanying dishes didn't vary much, but the taste was still commendable. Here's a small suggestion: perhaps offer another pillow option. Mine became flat, but using two felt a bit too high for my personal preference.

The room still maintains a certain Marriott standard. The hotel's location offers average amenities, not as good as the Marriott a bit further away, but the price is reasonable. The breakfast selection is a bit small but still sufficient for most people.

Five-Day Stay in Nanjing Check-in Experience We arrived early at around 6 AM due to the difficulty of booking train tickets during the holiday season. Although check-in was at 3 PM, the staff kindly accommodated us with an early check-in for an additional fee. Accommodation We stayed in two types of rooms during our visit: Single Room - Spacious and located in a peaceful, quiet area of the property. RV Room - Situated near the camping area where families and friends gather around a large bonfire for singing, BBQ, and games. **Ratings** Staff: 8/10 - Friendly and accommodating throughout our stay. Shuttle Service: 10/10 - The driver was exceptionally pleasant and always smiling. Since my daughter has asthma and walking long distances is difficult for her, we frequently requested shuttle service between locations. This was especially helpful as ride-share drivers typically drop off at the entrance, which is quite a walk from the rooms and facilities. Breakfast: 10/10 - Excellent variety of traditional Chinese dishes. They were accommodating when my husband requested takeout. Cleanliness: 10/10 - Both rooms were clean, including the beds, towels, and bathrooms. As my daughter’s asthma is triggered by dust, I was pleased that the rooms were clean enough that she didn’t experience any sneezing or symptoms. We all slept well for the entire five days. **Things to Consider** It’s highly recommended to have your own car, as the property is quite far from the city center. If you enjoy nature and outdoor activities, this place is ideal. Activities include: - ATV rides - Fishing area - Playground (note: adults are charged rather than children, so it’s more economical for only one adult to enter) - Small animal area featuring rabbits, ostriches, and llamas (15 RMB entry) - Train ride (30 RMB) The coffee shop has a wonderful atmosphere and aesthetic appeal, making it popular for photos. The property itself is spacious and perfect for leisurely walks. There’s also a temple nearby, approximately 20 minutes away by car. **Challenges We Faced** My daughter developed a fever and experienced diarrhea during our stay. When I called the front desk for help, the staff member wasn’t very accommodating and suggested my husband go buy medicine. This was difficult for us as foreigners who don’t speak the language well. I felt sad and helpless, especially when we couldn’t get any taxis or cabs to pick us up. We wanted to take her to the hospital, but no cabs were available. However, the next morning, a staff member spoke with me who was extremely kind and accommodating. They even offered to drive my daughter to the hospital, which I declined because we needed to catch our train and she was feeling better after taking medicine. They drove us to the South Railway Station and thoughtfully gave my daughter bags and drinks. It was a very kind gesture that we truly appreciated.

I was very satisfied with my stay. First off, the location is a huge plus – it's right inside the Confucius Temple area, making it super convenient to get around. The room was clean and tidy, and I slept really well. Every staff member I encountered greeted me warmly, and they were always quick to answer any questions I had. Overall, it was a great experience. I'll definitely choose this hotel again next time I'm in Nanjing.

Maybe it's because it's a hotel in a scenic area, and there's a lot of foot traffic. It took me almost 20 minutes to check in at the front desk, even though I arrived around 5:30 PM. At that time, my room was still being cleaned and inspected. The front desk's response time was incredibly slow. The front desk management here is the worst I've experienced at any Atour hotel nationwide. And get this: the gym and laundry room are in the same space! There's only one treadmill, a full set of dumbbells, but the laundry room is stuffy, hot, and the AC doesn't work. Working out in there is pure torture. Unless you have a specific reason, I wouldn't recommend staying next to a scenic area; the experience is really bad.
