Hotels With Gym in Jiangsu, China

Switched over to this hotel from the W, as I wasn't too happy with my stay there. In the past, when I came to Suzhou, I've stayed at the Kempinski, and multiple times at Nan Yuan Hotel and Jinji Lake Hotel. At Nan Yuan, I usually book the family duplex suite which has one king bed and two twin beds. The quad room with two king beds at Wu Gong also perfectly met my needs, and it even had two bathrooms, which was convenient and clean. Overall, I really liked it; it was quiet, friendly, and the service was excellent. My only minor complaints are that the bedding felt a bit damp at times, and there were occasional mosquitoes. Also, the TVs in the other two rooms were old, with faulty screens that sometimes showed pixelated, distorted images. Due to a tight schedule, I unfortunately didn't get to explore the Panmen Scenic Area, or even the hotel itself. I'll definitely come back next time if I get the chance.

This is our second stay at the Shangri-La Nanjing, and we're still just as delighted! It's so conveniently located right next to the subway station. The hotel has a refined ambiance, and the service is excellent and very welcoming. Just like last time, we booked a Horizon Club Deluxe Lake View room. It was a bit crowded during the Chinese New Year, and on the first day of the new year, we arrived a little late. The 40th-floor restaurant was full, and we almost missed breakfast. Thankfully, the customer service quickly arranged for us to eat at the second-floor restaurant, where we had a quick bite. Other than that, everything was perfect.

The location is fantastic, right in the city center with two malls nearby, making shopping incredibly convenient. It's just one subway stop to Sanyang Plaza, Wuxi's CBD, and not far from Nanchang Street and Huishan Ancient Town, which is super handy. Plus, the prices in Wuxi, especially for taxis, are quite reasonable. The breakfast spread was excellent, and the afternoon tea set was a real highlight; you can tell the hotel puts a lot of thought into things. Upon arrival, I received a small gift, which, though small, was a lovely touch and made me feel very welcome. The room itself was spacious, and being on the 20th floor, the night view from the window was absolutely stunning, with all the city lights twinkling. The only downside is for guests driving, as the parking situation isn't great due to its prime location. There are only 2 or 3 parking spots, and they're very cramped. Luckily, I arrived at noon and found an empty space, but leaving was tricky with limited turning room, definitely testing your driving skills! This wouldn't be an issue at all for guests arriving by high-speed train.

Great hotel in a superb location for a Yancheng visit. Staff are always warm and attentive, rooms are great and food is superb in the hotel

Traveling to Nanjing with my child for spring break was a fantastic experience, largely due to the hotel's excellent service. They upgraded my room for free and even asked if I needed a late checkout. They also helped link my license plate so parking was complimentary. After getting my room card, I was personally escorted to the elevator. The room itself came with complimentary drinks and a welcome fruit platter, which was a lovely touch. The hotel even boasts a Michelin-starred restaurant, Meiyuan, and my dining experience there was equally pleasant. When leaving, a polite security guard even opened the car door for me. Overall, a truly wonderful stay.

Location: This hotel is a landmark in Xuzhou, right in the city center. It's incredibly convenient for visiting the Confucius Temple and Pengcheng No. 1, and also close to the 1818 Night Market. You can even see these attractions from the hotel rooms. Getting to the subway station across the street requires a bit of a walk around to the traffic light, so we mostly took taxis, though you can also walk to Hubu Mountain and Huilongwo, exploring all the way to the museum and Yunlong Mountain. Facilities: There's a swimming pool, but we didn't use it. Cleanliness: Tidy. Service: I was initially worried that the front desk being on the 42nd floor would be inconvenient, but there's a dedicated elevator to go up, so it didn't feel like an issue at all.

The hygiene and service were excellent, and the location was super convenient. There's a bus stop right outside, and across the street is Xue Shi Street, a food street with tons of dining options and easy access to delivery. It's also within walking distance of Yipu Garden, Huanxiu Mountain Villa, and Baon Temple. Plus, it's a pet-friendly hotel! I'll definitely stay here again next time I'm in Suzhou.

For my weekend getaway to Yangzhou, I chose Shangri-La, and to my surprise, the experience far exceeded my expectations. You could truly feel the hotel's dedication to its guests everywhere. What really delighted me was the complimentary morning tea at Liuyuanchun Tea House, included with our stay package. This was incredibly 'Yangzhou'! Instead of queuing up like a tourist in the old town, we got to enjoy authentic 'Pi Bao Shui' (a local breakfast tradition) right at the hotel. The buns burst with savory flavor with every bite, and the jade-green shaomai and layered oil cakes were also exceptionally good. Paired with a cup of green tea, this breakfast instantly filled me with happiness. I also have to mention the complimentary foot massage by Lu Qin. As a representative of Yangzhou's 'Three Knives' (a local cultural highlight), the masseuse's technique truly lived up to its reputation. After a day of sightseeing, a foot massage with precise acupressure and thorough pressure instantly melted away all fatigue. I felt ready to explore Slender West Lake all over again! Furthermore, the cuisine at Shang Palace was another major highlight. The Huaiyang dishes were incredibly authentic; the Lion's Head meatball melted in my mouth, and the 'Goose Four Delicacies' and 'Soft Stir-fried Eel' were truly local specialties. The restaurant's ambiance was elegant, and the service was meticulous. From check-in to check-out, Shangri-La Yangzhou truly embodied the meaning of 'home away from home'. Whether it was the comfortable rooms or these value-added experiences, I felt it was incredibly good value for money. Next time I visit Yangzhou, this will definitely be my top choice!

Towards the end of my holiday, I chose the tallest hotel in Nanjing. The hotel provided a room on the 67th floor with a view of Xuanwu Lake and Zijin Mountain. The most striking feature inside was the large circular bathtub. Before this, I had already traveled to Shanghai during my third year of junior high school, dealing with work all the way, and was quite tired. For dinner and breakfast, I opted to dine at the hotel. Dinner was at the Summit restaurant on the 76th-77th floors, mainly featuring Huaiyang and fusion cuisine. It wasn't as salty as typical Nanjing dishes, and the cold dish with scampi was a highlight. The restaurant's main hall faces south towards Xinjiekou. Breakfast was at the coffee bar on the 45th floor, available from 9 AM to 7 PM. You could access the observation deck with your room card, which offered views to the north: Zijin Mountain, Jiming Temple, Xuanwu Lake, and the TV tower. The duck blood vermicelli soup and baked flatbread were very Nanjing in the breakfast spread, and the rest was typical InterContinental – very rich and varied. My only minor gripe was that the fruit station didn't have the cucumber sticks and juice often found at the Shanghai InterContinental; I had to get a bowl of cucumber slices from the salad bar. I visited the independently operated heated pool and gym after dinner, but it was quite crowded due to Chinese New Year, so it wasn't particularly enjoyable. I then explored the mall next door, which was pretty much as described by Nanjing local media. The only new development is that Sunrise Duty Free is setting up shop on the first floor and is currently under renovation. In a nutshell, my review of the hotel is: Majestic and awe-inspiring! Facilities: Everything you could need. Hygiene: Clean and tidy. Environment: A unique experience. Even with a strong gale outside at night, there was no howling sound once the ventilation windows were sealed. However, before 9 PM, you could hear outdoor loudspeakers from the nearby park or square, which was unavoidable – the entire city acts like a giant amplifier. Service: Warm and thoughtful, with appropriate boundaries, which I personally find more important.

Beyond the lobby's somewhat passable chandelier, everything else is just too run-down. And I mean genuinely dilapidated, not just showing signs of age. The sofas in the lobby are incredibly worn. The service, however, is typical Sheraton quality. As for the room, apart from the lights working, it felt like nothing else was in good condition. It's super convenient for dining, being only 100 meters from Wanda Plaza.
