This summer, I took my daughter to stay at the Dream Castle parent-child room at Yunxi Yasu, and choosing this accommodation for our Nanjing family trip really saved us a lot of hassle. The guesthouse's location is super convenient, making it easy to get to Hongshan Zoo, Xuanwu Lake, and Maya Water Park without long commutes, which is a big plus when traveling with kids. The room has just the right touch of childlike charm, with pink bow pillows, dessert-themed artwork, and a gentle, cute vibe. It even comes with a DIY dessert station, a complete set of children's makeup toys, and various plush dolls. My daughter was completely immersed the moment we walked in, playing quietly all afternoon. Downstairs, there are plenty of dining options; my daughter was thrilled to find Cha Yan Yue Se (a popular tea shop), and local specialties like Jiming soup dumplings and duck blood vermicelli soup are just downstairs. The overall setup is clean and thoughtful, perfectly catering to a little girl's preferences. It's highly recommended for families with young daughters who want both convenience and comfort on their travels.

The front desk staff were incredibly kind and attentive. The room was spotless and meticulously cleaned – I'm really impressed! Highly recommend.

The location of Flowing Tassels Hotel is truly unbeatable. It's incredibly close to Fuzi Temple and Qinhuai River, and you can take a taxi directly to the hotel entrance. The rooms are spacious and bright, with new facilities that are well-maintained and spotlessly clean. It's super convenient for exploring Laomendong and the ancient Qinhuai area. The price is also very reasonable, offering great value for money. It's an excellent choice for a stay when visiting Nanjing.

I arrived at night. So I missed the night view. Booking for family tour, couple tour, single person is a great option. In the morning I got complementory Americano !! I just discover they have separate coffee bar. Sitting space, Computer space. Outside Drinking bar is closed during the day but night view is beatifull. So proffessional. Also space for couple. My room is good and lighting vibes is so much fun.😍

The environment is clean and tidy, the service is thoughtful and attentive, and the check-in experience was fantastic.

Location The hotel is near Dongliu Station, but you need to walk about 3 blocks (15 minutes). The walk is flat, but in July and August it can get very hot, so bring an umbrella. The area is quiet and feels isolated. Although the hotel is not far from Nanjing University Xianlin Campus, there is no direct train, you need to change lines and make an awkward turn. Shared bikes (Hello blue bikes) are convenient in Xianlin, but not around this hotel. A good option is to take the B3 shuttle bus from Sanyang Road, which goes to Nanjing University train station (walking distance to NJU). Around the hotel, you will find small eateries (like chicken and duck rice shops) and a few convenience stores, but no malls. Cleanliness The rooms are clean, but there is a smoke smell that stays for about a day. The staff suggested opening the window and using the aircon, but I also bought a reed diffuser from Miniso to make it smell fresher. Bedsheets were changed regularly (every 5 days). The toilet slippers looked dirty, so I did not use them. Also, the hotel does not provide floor towels. Staff & Service The staff were very kind and helpful. They upgraded me to a bigger double room with a sofa and work area, and also gave me a cheaper rate since I stayed for 40 nights. Cleaning staff came daily, bringing bottled water and keeping the toilet clean. The night-shift counter staff were also helpful. Facilities There is a washing machine that can wash and dry in one cycle. Do not overload it, or clothes won’t dry properly. Since the hotel is not very busy, I could use the machine anytime without queuing. Rooms have a hair dryer and a lighted mirror. The aircon makes a small dripping sound, but it is not a real problem. Noise The soundproofing is generally okay, but occasionally you can hear people talking loudly if there are guests next door. It’s not the hotel’s fault—just that people in China often speak very loudly, even inside their rooms or in the corridor. Nothing much you can do about it. Surroundings & Safety The area is safe, with big roads and many residential apartments. In the evenings, families with kids and dogs walk around, and I also jogged nearby. Food delivery is easy drivers can bring food to your room or the counter. Overall It is a quiet and safe place to stay, with helpful staff and decent facilities. The location is not very convenient for NJU Xianlin Campus, but manageable if you use the shuttle bus.

I had a fantastic stay at Sawmill Youth Hostel. The place was always clean, and the common areas never had any unpleasant smells. The bathrooms were spotless and dry, with no standing water. My bed was tidy, and all the bedding was brand new. The front desk staff were very friendly and patiently answered all my questions. They were quick to help with any issues. The lobby had a relaxed atmosphere, and I enjoyed participating in the games organized by the hostel in my free time. The location was convenient for getting around, and there were plenty of dining options nearby. The value for money was excellent, and the cleanliness and service far exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend this hostel for short trips and will definitely choose to stay here again next time I'm in Nanjing.

The hotel is not bad, it’s not very close to metro, but it’s okay. Room is nice and big, but a bit dirty in some places. Unfortunately, there was no washing powder in the room, and I was told to go and buy it. The hotel provides breakfast, but it’s in the neighbourhood building and the breakfast itself was with quite a modest choice

The room was a pleasant surprise, very large, very clean, and fully equipped. The service staff was very enthusiastic, and there was free breakfast. In particular, there was enough drinking water and toilet paper, and the cleaning lady was very nice. The location was particularly praised, and it was only a few minutes' walk from the subway, and it was easy to find. Opposite the hotel is the bus stop, at Shanghai Road Station in Nanjing, and there are three hospitals nearby. It is only two stops away from famous attractions such as Nanjing Xinjiekou Qinhuai River, Laomendong, and Confucius Temple, which is very convenient. There are pharmacies, small supermarkets, Shaxian snacks, Sichuan cuisine, cooking, barbecue, fruit shops, etc. at the entrance of the hotel, which is more convenient than living on the main street. There is also a famous Nanjing Huaiyang restaurant Little Chef on the side. There is also a stewed white fish soup noodle restaurant in the subway store, which is especially delicious! In short, this hotel is recommended for the first time in Nanjing, and Nanjing is also worth recommending to visit. Nanjing's ducks and pastries are delicious, Huaiyang cuisine is also exquisite and delicious, and the farmers' market is affordable. A very good experience!
