Hotels in Ningbo

"## Environment Comfortable. My only minor quibble was that the bathroom didn't have a separate door. 😁 ## Service From the moment we checked in, we were greeted with welcome fruit and received personalized butler service. It's clear the founder places a strong emphasis on service quality. 👍 ## Value for Money Superb value, and the service was absolutely top-notch. ## Transportation Nearby attractions are about 2 km away, and a taxi ride costs just 10 RMB, making it both affordable and convenient. ## Overall If you're visiting the city, I highly recommend this hotel. The service is truly excellent! 👍"

"The young female receptionist, who doesn’t speak English! and the lovely lady at the surprisingly acceptable breakfast buffet were the highlights . Otherwise it’s probably the worst hotel in China and Ibis worldwide , I’ve resided in ! As you enter the disgusting, grubby lift , you know what to expect . NO INTERNET IN THE ROOM . And the 2/3 male characters at reception don’t help . But the location and cheap !"

"My friend and I visited Ningbo to watch a movie, and it was my first time staying at a Shangri-La property. We booked a room with Horizon Club access (executive lounge), and I have a few honest remarks for everyone's reference: 1. Service: Before check-in, no concierge contacted me regarding my needs, which was quite surprising. Other hotels in Ningbo of a similar price range that I've stayed at, like the Sheraton and Hilton, always contact guests in advance. Even after checking in, there was no WeChat contact from a concierge. To request room service, I had to either scan a QR code on the table or make a phone call. 2. Check-in: Since no one contacted me beforehand, I had noted my check-in preferences in advance, hoping for a room upgrade if available. In the past, on Ctrip, there were two scenarios: either the hotel would reply saying an upgrade depends on same-day availability, or they would confirm the upgrade. This time, I received a confirmation that the upgrade was arranged. However, upon check-in, it wasn't mentioned, and the room assigned had a musty smell with a locked window that couldn't be opened for ventilation. My happy expectations quickly soured. I think it's better to just say upgrades depend on availability rather than making a promise and not delivering; it's truly astounding. 3. Package: The package included K11 consumption vouchers, but again, no one informed me how to use them. I eventually had to go down to the front desk to ask. Moreover, they couldn't be collected at the hotel; I had to go to the mall. Once there, I was told that tickets for tomorrow's movie could only be booked on the same day, making my trip a complete waste of time. It was truly awful. 4. Horizon Club: The Horizon Club was the only highlight of this stay. The ladies at the lounge were all smiling and attentive, and the view was excellent. Happy hour was incredibly rich and filling, the best I've experienced in so many luxury hotels over the past two years. Breakfast was also very good, with all the expected food categories available. To sum it up: If you're coming for the food and scenery, go for it. Otherwise, I'd say skip it. And it's best to book a room with Horizon Club access, or you might experience poor service like I did this time. What's even more ridiculous is that while I enjoyed good service at the Horizon Club, my friend, who isn't a Shangri-La member, was pressured into applying for a membership card. It's truly a bittersweet moment. Given this attitude, they might as well set up a proper concierge service."

"Although the hotel facilities are a bit dated, the service absolutely deserves a five-star rating. The front desk staff were polite and thoughtful, and service requests were promptly attended to. Since there were three of us staying, they generously provided an extra breakfast. The breakfast was excellent, offering a rich variety of options compared to other hotels of a similar standard. Even for someone like me who is a picky eater, there was plenty to choose from, and I felt completely satisfied. The restaurant staff were also very courteous and provided attentive service in a timely manner. I was even pleasantly surprised to find that the bathroom faucets were Hansgrohe. Overall, it was a very satisfying stay. If I had to mention any minor drawbacks, the hotel's shower caps were too small to fit my head – I hope they can improve their selection of amenities in the future. The room lighting was a bit dim, the telephone was out of order, and the bathroom lacked a rain shower. However, none of these issues significantly impacted my overall experience."

"Coming to Ningbo, choosing the right hotel really doubles the happiness of the trip! The stay experience at Zhenting Hotel (Tianyi Square Old Bund Branch) far exceeded my expectations, so I absolutely have to give it a five-star review~ The location is truly impeccable! It's right in the heart of Yaohang Street, just a five-minute walk to Tianyi Square, making shopping and dining incredibly convenient. The Old Bund and Drum Tower are only ten minutes away, and there's a subway station close by, saving time and hassle whether you're hitting up attractions or just getting around. It's nestled in a quiet spot amidst the hustle and bustle, allowing you to embrace the city's vibrancy while ensuring a peaceful and comfortable stay. Plus, you get to enjoy stunning city night views, with a super expansive vista."

"The hotel is very charming and provides excellent support for guests. Its central location makes it easy to get around and visit major attractions. If I come back, I would definitely choose to stay here again."

"You receive full score from me. I stayed here when I Ieft Ningbo 18 months ago and loved it, after I managed my stress and tiredness better! Now I live in Shanghai so came to visit my old city again (yes it was me - did you remember? 😂）. You get what you pay for with this lovely, quirky, library-themed place. People complain about the simple Chinese breakfast, but I think it is prepared by one person and it is fresh and great after a heavy night out - ho ho. Always other options nearby. I have also seen comments about coffee but they had none, when I asked! I won’t deduct any points for that as I left my smart shoes there and they were very quick to contact me and offer to send them! ☺️ I think most of the staff don’t speak English but the girl on reception was the same one as last time and is lovely - all staff seem friendly and helpful. If you want somewhere a bit different, traditional, clean and comfortable in a perfect area of Ningbo, at a very good price then why not check it out? Happy New year and thank you once again! 🥰"

"The location is great! Convenient to all the must-sees in Ningbo. Around the hotel there is a night market, street food and cafes available. The hotel itself is dingy and rundown. It shares a lift with a cyber-club, so the lifts are always full. No coffee or tea in the room, just a teapot with a strange hot water machine."

"We had problems with the hot water and the air conditioning. However, we were moved to a new room, and the situation resolved itself. I hope such issues don’t occur too often, as we plan on coming to the Atour Hotel again. The bed was very comfortable, the view from the room was nice, the staff were friendly and attentive, and I was pleased to find some complementary coffee was provided. The location is perfect. Heyi Avenue, with its luxury stores, is across the street, and Tianyi Square, the heart of Ningbo, is a short walk away. Share bicycles and public transportation are within easy reach. I enjoyed my stay at the Atour Hotel."

"I had originally booked a different hotel, but after checking in, I ended up temporarily switching to the Crowne Plaza. The initial hotel was undergoing renovations and was simply too noisy. On top of that, with the current high temperatures, the air conditioning wasn't cooling the room sufficiently, and the room temperature just wouldn't drop. So, I decisively moved to the well-established Crowne Plaza. Although the hotel has been around for a number of years, its interior is remarkably well-maintained, which speaks volumes about its mature management and operational model. True to form, after checking in, every request was promptly addressed, and the staff were all quite friendly. The air conditioning in my room was so effective that it felt cold as soon as I turned it on, and the entire stay was pleasantly quiet. The breakfast offered an extensive variety, even including some local Ningbo specialties. Overall, whether you're traveling for business or with children, the location is extremely convenient. I will definitely choose to stay here again."
