5-Star Hotels in Yancheng

I was really surprised those high quality. In this price it’s just brilliant. Special thanks to HanSuQuin for hospitality on my way back 🥰

Jiulongkou Hantian Hot Spring Hotel is located in Jiulongkou National Geopark. It has a beautiful environment, pleasant scenery, spacious and bright rooms, and soft and comfortable bedding. The receptionist Qiu Ying provided warm, thoughtful and considerate service. The hotel is a quiet and pleasant resort hotel. It is a good choice for traveling with children and family during the holidays.

The hotel service was so-so. The front desk staff were rather inflexible. After staying two nights, my key card stopped working on the second day, so I had to go back to the front desk to get it renewed. The door lock also broke that night, thankfully it was fixed in time, but it was still a bit of a hassle. There weren't many restaurants nearby, so I ate at all three hotel restaurants. I'm not picky, but the food was all pretty good, and the portions were huge – three people couldn't finish four dishes! The hotel pool was only 1.5 meters deep, not suitable for those who aren't good swimmers. The staff recommended renting a swim ring for 20 yuan. The pool wasn't crowded, so the experience was okay. Overall, in terms of service, the Mercure next door was better. Because the food was served late, they even gave my child a complimentary steamed egg. I didn't mind the egg, but it made me feel respected!

If you go to Yancheng Chinese Elk Park, the hotel will give you tickets. Hotels and a large area near the hotels, including cross-border e-commerce parks, are run by the government. There are few tourists and it is not popular. But the environment is very good and suitable for self-driving travel. The facilities in the room are well maintained and the price/performance ratio is very high.

We stayed here during the May Day holiday. The hotel is located inside the scenic area, so the shuttle service was very smooth, and check-in was prompt. The front desk staff were warm and welcoming, offering complimentary fruit. We had children with us, and the staff were very friendly towards them, which was a big plus. The kids also enjoyed the hotel's activities – everything was great. I do have a few minor suggestions: When checking in with children, it would be helpful to proactively ask if they need kids' toiletries and slippers, rather than waiting for guests to request them. The mosquito repellent in our room was nearly empty, and despite calling twice, it was never delivered. Also, there was no information provided about the hotel's facilities, leaving guests to figure things out on their own.

My experience at the DoubleTree by Hilton Yancheng Dafengwan exceeded all expectations! The entire hotel is designed as an elegant New Chinese garden, with pavilions, flowing water, and lush greenery. Every step offers a beautiful, healing view. The room was spacious and spotless, the bedding was soft and comfortable, and the balcony overlooked the garden, offering a fantastic view. Staff members Xiao Cai and Xiao Song were warm and polite, making check-in efficient and even offering thoughtful cookies. Breakfast had a rich variety, with authentic local specialties. The heated pool and fitness area were also very well-maintained. Located next to the Dafengwan Scenic Area, it’s perfect for a relaxing getaway, and I certainly wasn't disappointed. The hotel perfectly blends the essence of Jiangnan gardens, offering a tranquil and quiet escape from the city. The guest rooms are well-equipped, and housekeeping is meticulous, with high-quality toiletries. The dining was delicious, with a good balance of meat and vegetables. The entire staff provided warm and attentive service, always ready to assist. Whether it's for a peaceful escape or a short trip, this is an excellent choice. Full marks!

The hotel room is spacious and bright, with a very reasonable layout and a good view outside the window. The room service cleaning sister replenished drinking water very timely, which is very friendly for families who go out early and return late on May Day. I especially like the atmosphere of the hotel's buffet breakfast restaurant and all the staff, including the front desk, service staff, and the eldest sister. Although the taste is different for different people, there are many varieties. I especially like it❤️+1: The girl in charge of cooking fish soup noodles and wontons is very enthusiastic. She is the most enthusiastic and patient in cooking noodles in all the hotels I have stayed in recently, including luxury five-star hotels. Special thanks and likes +2❤️: The sister in the black suit at the breakfast bar, the service is particularly good, helping to pick up the mobile phone that fell in the gap, timely, enthusiastic and responsible, sincere and hearty smile and service make people feel very comfortable, absolutely beat those attentive masked stereotyped WeChat services, only sincerity is the most moving, it is a comfortable moment in the hurried May Day trip! There are two more attractions I want to go to, but I didn't go because of time, and I will choose here again!

The room is quite spacious and the view outside the window is also very good. It's just that the furniture and appliances are quite old. But the hygiene is quite clean. The service was acceptable. One point was deducted because when we checked in, the front desk clerk did not tell us exactly where the elevator was for guest room check-in. As a result, I led two elderly people in their 80s with large and small bags. Xingli walked around in the lobby on the first floor. Moreover, in such a big hotel, there is no staff to deliver luggage in line, which is very inconvenient. Also, the breakfast in the hotel is not worth the 98 yuan at all. The milk is made from milk powder, and snacks such as small cakes are made from cheap plant-based cream. I probably won’t choose breakfast here again next time.

The front desk clerk, Xiao Sun, was very enthusiastic and sorted out my express delivery for me to pick up when I checked in. It was truly a five-star service that made me feel the warmth of Yancheng. The room is very large, with classic decoration but it is a smart room. It has Xiaodu, a smart toilet, a TV with screen projection, a bathtub and a disposable bathtub cover, which is very thoughtful. The breakfast is very rich, the lotus root tea is delicious, the lotus root powder dumplings are delicious, and the fish soup noodles are a Yancheng specialty that you must try!

My 2nd time in Dongtai, 1st time in Leida hotel. It looked good on the website. 1st impressions were good. Even though the staff spoke very limited English they checked me in efficiently (I do speak some Chinese but if you don't it's okay). The rooms are a good size and the big picture windows give great views over the public lake/park. the only downside was the faint aroma of stale cigarette smoke in the room but this is China and unfortunately to be expected. The downside was the breakfast was very Chinese and though I love the cuisine here I'm not a lover of Chinese breakfast. It would have been better if the cook knew how to make fried eggs in different styles than just solid yokes and they invested in a good coffee machine. The coffee was in a flask....and was white....I didn't even try the bit I poured into a cup. The positive is Wuyue Plaza is a 10 minute stroll and has a Starbucks and MacDonalds! I had a look at the gym and pool. Gym was 10 yuan, pool was 40. Both looked okay. The hotel grounds needed a bit of a tidy up but were okay. I couldn't find direct access into the lake/park area but then I was only there 2 nights. The big convenience was Wuyue Plaza. The top floor was restaurants. A decent selection. Towards the back on the outside walking street was a decent little bar (Black Vine). Nice manager, 8 craft beer taps, lots of bottled beer. Yes, I'd stay here again as it suited my purpose.
