Ningbo PRIUS Hotel (Tianyi Square SHOPING) ★★★★

"The hotel's decor is minimalist, and the room layout is also very simple. The bedding and room cleanliness are both quite good."

Shangri-La Ningbo ★★★★★

"Let's start with the downsides. Probably due to the older decor, there was a bit of an odor in the hallway, and the guest room door was extremely heavy to push open. The garden view is basically just a neighborhood pocket park; if you want a nice view, you'd probably have to go for a river view room. On the positive side, the dining was good—the welcome fruit was fresh and included local specialty fried dough twists (Youzanzi). I almost always visit the Chinese restaurant at every Shangri-La I stay at, and there are always dishes that leave me very satisfied, though the prices are a bit on the higher side. Additionally, the hotel is close to a shopping mall and not far from the subway, making getting around quite convenient overall."

Holiday Inn Express NINGBO CITY CENTER by IHG ★★★★

"Upon check-in, we were upgraded to the Crowne Plaza next door. The location is excellent, very close to Tianyi Square and not far from the train station – a Didi ride is less than 10 yuan. It's super convenient for visiting attractions like Tianyige, Yuehu Lake, and Chenghuang Temple. The hotel breakfast was plentiful. The family room had one large bed and one small bed, perfectly accommodating our family of four. We'll definitely choose this hotel again for our next trip!"

Fortune Bond Hotel ★★★★★

"Right across from the train station, it's a 5-minute walk to catch your train after leaving the hotel, making it a top choice for business travelers taking early morning trains. The breakfast is excellent and starts at 6:30 AM, so there's plenty of time even for a 7 AM high-speed train. The room facilities, environment, and service all deserve praise."

Hilton Garden Inn Ningbo ★★★★

"Pretty good hotel. Great location, easy to get around. Seems to be a favorite among foreigners."

Sheraton Ningbo Yinzhou Hotel ★★★★★

"I used to stay at the Sofitel frequently, which has now been rebranded as the Sheraton Ningbo Yinzhou. The interior design is very upscale, and the service is spot on."

Ningjing Hotel (Ningbo Tianyi Square Chenghuang Temple) ★★★★

"This hotel is truly terrible. I booked it because I saw a large window in the room on Ctrip, but after checking in, the window wouldn't open. The staff said it was broken, so they moved me to another room. Later that night, when I wanted to boil some water, the kettle was absolutely disgusting, covered in lint. For breakfast the next morning, they used a fancy nine-compartment platter, but the food inside was genuinely bad – all show and no substance. In short, it was a complete mess!"

Ningbo New Eastern Zone Meifu Center Atour Jinye Hotel ★★★★

Harrow Hotel ★★

"This hotel is very close to the train station and has recently been renovated. The rooms are clean, and there's a delicious spicy soup (Húlàtāng) restaurant right next door!"
