Novotel Nanjing Central Suning

Summary Good location, but noise from the traffic and warm rooms gives it a 👎 Location Street food, bubble teas on the left, large shopping mall diagonally across the hotel with plenty of food options. Luckin coffee is right across the hotel (there is a cafe next to the reception - check out the price!) Room The room with queen sized bed is ideal for 1 person , but found it slightly small for 2 adults and 2 luggages Stayed for 2 nights but had issues with the air con. I can read Chinese , adjusted the thermostat to 17deg, cool , at both manual and automatic settings but they remained a constant 23-24deg which was quite warm for us. Noise The cars in Nanjing will honk the entire day (and I mean it) , it's very different from Shanghai. Front of the hotel is a 1 way street and cars are always honking from day to late night as there will always be someone who decides to stop their vehicle... , so if you have a room facing the road like we did (and we were on one if the highest level), that might be a deal breaker Gym Well equipped. Don't think it belongs to the hotel and it's unmanned at the reception. Anyone from the public can take a lift up and enter . I hope th e hotel considers installing a card scanner, only allowing guests to enter. Breakfast Large variety but serving local style breakfast. So if you are after bacon, scrambled eggs etc..this is not for you .
