Yebo Qinhuai SSAW Hotel (Jinling Calligraphy and Painting Academy)

Excellent Experience! The hotel location is amazing, walking distance to a lot of touristy areas and the view outside the hotel is great. The hotel staff was very friendly, I even forgot something in the hotel and they were very quick at arranging me to retrieve it. I was a little confused about the breakfast set-up because I had to choose the food the day before and I thought I would only receive that food however they did have a smaller buffet together with the food I picked from the day before. Everything I tried from the smaller buffet was really good, especially the prepared sandwiches!

A charming hotel which is very cosy and relaxing. The staff were extremely accommodating, they helped us as our travel plans changed suddenly by offering us a choice of rooms last minute. A beautiful location on the canal within walking distance of several main Nanjing attractions and the old town. Extremely clean with lovely amenities and helpful staff. Would definitely return.

Wonderful staff. Very helpful with helping to book trips and accommodating our requests. Hotel is also in central location at the Confucius temple area. Lots to see and soak in the atmosphere. Visiting from Singapore

Great location (on the scenic river, a few hundred meters from the night market section of town as well as the subway.) The feel of the hotel is wonderful; the decor and rooms somehow capture the charm of what you'd think old-world China is, yet also both are modern and comfortable. Would stay here again.

Location: not in the middle of the centralized area of Confucius Temple, but close enough to walk. About 10 minutes to the Fuzimiao Metro, and 10 minutes to Confucius temple. I appreciated the location because it is much quieter and calmer than the centralized area, and quiet and beautiful along the river. Cleanliness: Considering the hotel seems quite old, it is fairly well maintained. Service: All the staff were very helpful and kind. I am not sure if anyone can speak English though. Since this hotel is only available (from what I could see) on Trip.com or Chinese apps, I only noticed Chinese guests. Nonetheless, all the staff were friendly and courteous. Tea and coffee are available all day along. Facilities: It is a small hotel, but seemed to have all basic the facilities required. At the time of stay, it seemed they were just starting renovations on the outside? Room: We stayed in a room along the street side, not the river side. If you could afford to, I am sure staying along the river side would be worth the price. Naturally, the street side didn’t have much of a view. The street side was quiet though, and the room seemed smaller than I expected (no balcony). The room was neat, and the bed comfortable. My only complaint is that the bathroom sliding door didn’t close properly. Also, a tea set was put on the table, but not tea leaves for the Chinese tea set was offered. (Tea bags and coffee were available though.) If it was just for decoration, I think fresh flowers would be preferred.
