[2024 Nantong Stay] Travel Guide for Nantong Marriott Hotel (Updated Oct)
Nantong Marriott Hotel is highly recommended.
Nantong Marriott Hotel
Located in Nantong Development Zone, it is 15 kilometers away from Nantong Station. The score on the Marriott app is as high as 4.7. It is also one of the few chain five-star hotels in Nantong. This experience is really extraordinary.
Advantages
The location is good, a little distance from the high-speed rail station, but everything is available nearby, commercial plaza, Nantong Grand Theater, Art Museum... The hotel is located by Nantong Zilang Lake, not far from Langshan Scenic Area, it is very comfortable to take a walk or ride a bike by the lake.
The owner of this hotel is the Nantong Development Zone Government. The visible public areas and rooms are very good, bright, and the corridor has a faint fragrance and the smell of wood.
I tried breakfast, executive lounge and lobby bar. The breakfast restaurant is not small, the scallion oil noodles are particularly fragrant, the executive lounge is very rich, the desserts (butterfly crisp and small egg tart) are also delicious. The lobby bar ordered a takeaway of Wagyu hamburger and fries, and a watermelon coconut, which are very good and the price is also appropriate.
The service is very good, the hotel staff are very enthusiastic and professional.
Compared with most hotels of the same level in Suzhou and Shanghai, this Nantong Marriott has undoubtedly higher quality and cost performance. If you are on a self-driving tour around Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai, it is a very good choice.
HOLDEN BROCK
In Nantong!! Budget hotel! Just checked out!! It's really good.
Nantong Marriott | Resort scenery and area, city ceiling|
🏨Opening time: Opened in 2022, new, big, very big
Address: Next to a lake connected to the Yangtze River, the lake view room is really amazing to watch the sunrise or sunset, the whole area is very large, like Cancun Resort, very new business style, there are people running and cycling by the lake, and there are small shops around.
🕰️Check-in: There is a concierge department responsible for opening the car door and luggage reception when getting off the car, check in at the front desk on the first floor, the attitude and efficiency are very good, the rooms are tight on weekends, so they are not upgraded to suites.
🧑🏻🍳Catering: The executive lounge at night is on the 12th floor, with 5.30-7.30 dinner as shown in 1415, you can also make cocktails, breakfast the next day as shown in 16-18, personally feel that the service attitude is also good, the decoration is also good, the types of food and the environment need to be improved.
🛏️Room: Booked a large room type, upgraded to the executive floor lake view king room, 11th floor, the scenery is very good, sent new guest points, welcome fruit, room 45 square meters, with sofa, king bed, bathtub, shower room. The room is high-tech, and the curtains are electrically switched.
Hotel concept: Personally feel Chinese business style, organize decoration symmetrical aesthetics and Zen.
Advantages:
1. The environment is very beautiful and open, facing the lake, you can ride a bike and run around the lake in the morning. The executive lounge also faces the lake.
2. New, very new, worth a try.
3. The spare parts respond very quickly.
4. The proposed amendments are also fast.
5. Parking is convenient and free🆓, both above and below ground🅿️
6. The management of the swimming pool is good, there is a small living room outside, you can wait for someone, there is a lifeguard, it is very rare and considerate, other Marriott systems are not common.
7. There are many fitness equipment, both types and quantities, more than Beijing Sheraton.
8. The executive lounge and breakfast are mediocre, but the breakfast beef noodles are delicious.
9. The room with a high score is equipped with an air purifier, and the water is arranged.
Disadvantages:
1. When I checked in, I heard a Ctrip Black Diamond sister next to me complaining that the executive lounge and breakfast were messy and the experience was not good.
2. Personally, I feel that the executive lounge is a bit slow to clean up the plates and it seems messy. I talked to the staff the next morning. Marriott's standard should be to actively ask and pick up the plates in time. This is the case all over the world. They immediately started to increase staff to ask and pick up the plates.
3. Breakfast will make a drink, the speed of delivery after asking is relatively slow, I usually have coffee for dinner, so I waited for a long time to eat.
Overall it is okay, I personally like simple design business style, the hotel is as big as a scenic spot, the food is not good after the experience is proposed, the rectification is also quite fast, the overall is good, the service between dinner and breakfast has not been experienced, it is for friends, After dinner, I left, and there was no experience evaluation of the sound insulation effect of the air conditioning temperature and humidity at night. It is worth checking in, and it is one of the new hotel ceilings in Nantong.

The view is unbeatable, and the unique design makes for great photos.
The Nantong Marriott Hotel is located on the banks of the Zilang Lake. The hotel is designed in the shape of a sail, symbolizing the spirit of sailing and breaking through the waves. The hotel is surrounded by beautiful lake views, lush grass, and singing birds. The beautiful environment makes guests feel comfortable and relaxed.
Design
The hotel lobby is decorated with a long history of Jianghai culture. In particular, the four tall screens in the middle of the lobby are like sails sailing in the sea. The art installations on both sides are inspired by Nantong's textile culture. The water scenes projected on the water are different, and walking into it is like walking on the surging sea.
Rooms
The hotel has city view rooms and lake view rooms to choose from. The 420 modern rooms and suites incorporate local culture into the space design. The interior is decorated with Nantong textile industry "dyeing" and "weaving" crafts and decorative paintings, which are simple and natural. It echoes Nantong's traditional culture. In the lake view room, you can overlook the entire Zilang Lake through the bright floor-to-ceiling windows.
Dining
The hotel has three restaurants and a lobby lounge with different styles. Breakfast can be enjoyed in the Gong Kitchen all-day restaurant, which is inspired by the salt drying culture. The Marriott Chinese Restaurant, which has the characteristics of Marriott Hotel, can taste traditional Cantonese and Huaiyang cuisine.
Experience
In the leisurely afternoon, you can also go to the Marriott brand's lobby bar to enjoy an exquisite and elegant afternoon tea. When night falls, you can relax and have a drink in the Zilang Yard Chinese Tavern.

A unique stay experience.
The overall shape is like a fan
The fan-shaped screen in the lobby is like a sail
It echoes the river and sea culture of Nantong very well. The hotel has more than 400 rooms
Recommended lake view room, you can see the whole Zilang Lake. If you catch the fountain show, you can enjoy it in the room, highly recommended

Nantong Marriott Hotel 🏨 Buffet ✔️
Overall feeling: No regrets!
I always have concerns about bed linens that animals can access, so I checked out the newly updated Marriott. The location of Nantong Marriott itself is very suitable for taking kids out. There is a bike path downstairs that you can ride along the river, and there are further check-in points. My cousin and I are both quite young, so we didn't go far. After cycling, you can play football on the grass or even camp.
The hotel facilities are relatively new, so there is nothing to criticize. Most importantly, because we were prepared to go to the zoo, we brought twenty pounds of carrots, and the hotel could help process and cut them into strips. This service was very thoughtful. Another highlight is that during the executive dinner, there were Typhoon Shelter crabs, but if you go late, they might be gone. The crowd wasn't too large.
Another thing is breakfast. I was amazed by the mixed noodles + spicy meat. I devoured three bowls, and I still feel that the noodles were top-notch!
If there is a chance, the combination of Marriott + zoo is worth a second visit.
The newly opened Marriott in Nantong has an impeccable environment, definitely a five-star standard.
The dining area is divided into sections, relatively quiet and not too noisy.
There are waiters who promptly clear the plates, and if you have any requests, you can always talk to the waiters, and they will do their best to accommodate. During our meal, the restaurant manager even toured the place and personally asked for feedback, showing genuine care for customer service ❤️.
Dish recommendations: When you come to eat at the Marriott buffet, you must try all their desserts. They are really delicious, not inferior to professional dessert shops outside. Even I, who always talk about controlling sugar and losing weight, couldn't resist. My personal favorite is the pistachio Basque (the green cut pieces). In short, try all the desserts.
The ice cream is said to be from Duboray, the same supplier as Häagen-Dazs. I think the quality is not much different. Five flavors (my personal favorite is sea salt).
Other dishes include king crab, small green lobster, M5 Wagyu beef, various sashimi, oysters, and whole roasted lamb.
For a buffet that costs just over 300, I think it's pretty good to get such quality and service in Nantong.

Nantong Marriott∣Proudly, this is the quasi-flagship of Jiangsu region
Hotel: Nantong Marriott Hotel
Price: 600-700 RMB/11000 points
Room Type: Executive Suite (Member Upgrade)
Hotel Introduction: Nantong Marriott is the first Marriott hotel in Nantong, opened in 2022, located in the Nantong Innovation Zone, overlooking the beautiful Zilang Lake. Together with Nantong International Conference Center, Art Museum, Grand Theater, Zilang Tiandi, and Zilang Lake Park, it forms a lakeside architectural complex, providing a leisure sanctuary away from the hustle and bustle of the city, and is also a great place for family outings.
Hotel Services: Positioned as a resort hotel, the service is very attentive. After parking, the concierge comes to open the door and help with luggage. The front desk and room service staff are also very enthusiastic. The rooms were fully booked that day, but members were still arranged in an executive suite, possibly because two additional rooms were booked with cash. An extra breakfast was generously provided because we brought a nanny. Room service was also very responsive.
Room Condition: The initial impression of the executive suite is spacious, with a 180-degree floor-to-ceiling window in the living room, a large sofa, and a panoramic view of Zilang Lake. The bedroom is bright and transparent, with a distant view of Zilang Lake from the bed, and the small bedside lamp adds a touch of style. There are two bathrooms, a guest bathroom in the living room, which is perfect for the nanny to sleep in the living room. The main bathroom is large, with double sinks, a separate bathtub, and black marble flooring, giving a sense of quality. There is also a walk-in closet partition between the bathroom and the living room.
Hotel Public Area: The hotel's owner is the Development Zone Government, so both the guest rooms and public areas show a lot of effort. The lobby's pool sculpture has a bit of a Capella feel, and some decorative small sculptures are also very artistic. Coupled with the faint fragrance in the hotel's public area, it is very refreshing. Overall, the hotel's public area is very grand and stands out among the Marriott brand in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai.
Family Activities: The hotel itself seems to have no playground, but because it overlooks the entire Zilang Lake, the Zilang Lake architectural complex has become the best place for family outings. On one side of the hotel is Zilang Tiandi, which is great for family outings, and inside it is xspace. On the side and opposite the hotel are Nantong Grand Theater and Nantong Art Museum, which have very distinctive architecture, suitable for older children to visit. Across the lake from the hotel, Zilang Park has a white sandy beach where young children can dig in the sand for half a day. The hotel rents electric cars for a tour around the lake. Within half an hour's drive from the hotel, there is Nantong Wildlife Park and Ice and Snow World, where you can spend a whole day. However, the weather is hot recently, so it is recommended to buy night tickets for the zoo.
Lounge/Breakfast:
Family members said the lounge is very good, with a wide variety of dishes, including braised pork and noodle stalls, so you can have a meal without leaving the hotel. Compared to the lounge, breakfast is really disappointing. The variety is quite complete, but the quality is average. The only impressive dish is the beef noodles, not beef brisket, but sliced beef, which tastes good.

Staying with my boyfriend at a hotel in Jiangsu, and I don't want to check out
It's another newly opened Marriott that sets a benchmark for decoration. Whether it's the hotel's facade, lobby, public area decor, or the interior space style of the rooms, it's all top-notch. The surrounding Zilang Lake scenery complements the hotel's grand style perfectly, and of course, this is thanks to the strength and generosity of the local state-owned enterprise as the owner. If you're lucky, the lake view rooms offer a view of Zilang Lake's animated waterfall; in short, although Nantong Marriott is just a Marriott, once you stay, you'll find it's more than just a Marriott.
⚠️Let's talk about the downsides first:
🖤1. The front desk staff are professional and quick, but they seem a bit cold. I've had this feeling every time I've been there.
🖤2. Like other Marriott hotels with impressive hardware, the drinking water is Pepsi Pure Water Joy. Does this really save a lot of money?
🖤3. The hot dishes in the lounge are average, the cocktails are made to order, and the beer is Heineken.
🖤4. The breakfast is very bad, very bad, very bad! It's completely disproportionate to the price.
🉑Now for the advantages:
❤️1. The hotel's decoration is high-end and classy, even in the swimming area's preparation zone or a small corner of the corridor, everything is arranged with extra care.
❤️2. The lounge staff are very nice, proactively asking about the stay experience and making for pleasant conversations.
❤️3. A fully standard executive suite, with a living room area that is said to be the largest in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai, except for Wuxi Le Méridien. It's really big, with a 90 square meter claim, and the sofa is huge, feeling like it could sleep two more adults without any problem.
❤️4. The afternoon tea selection in the lounge is decent, with coffee, soft drinks, fruit slices, biscuits, and candy available.
❤️5. The swimming area is very large, with new decor and high standards.

The entrance of the hotel is spacious, and there is a pleasant scent upon entering, giving an overall fresh impression. The lounge offers a better view than the rooms, and while the river view rooms are not very large, the swimming pool is quiet and beautiful. Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows is a lawn, next to which is the gym. The route from the elevator to the swimming pool is somewhat illogical, as it leads through the guest room corridors. The breakfast experience was diminished by an overly hard fried dough stick, but overall, it's a nice Marriott.

The newly opened Nantong hotel seems to be this one
Passing through Nantong for a night's rest, I booked the Marriott Hotel which is quite close to the highway.
The hotel was newly built in 2022, located in the Innovation District near Zilang Park, and you can choose rooms with a lake view.
1. Rooms
The room facilities are very new, with no odd smell, and just for this renovation, it's worth staying. The city view rooms overlook the Zilang Science City (see picture 5), and the lake view rooms overlook Zilang Lake (see picture 6).
2. Dining
There are three restaurants in the hotel, a Chinese restaurant, Zilang Courtyard, and Gongchu Buffet. The buffet is said to be the top 1 in Nantong, but it was fully booked when we went, so we missed out.
3. Location
The hotel's location is quite remote, with only the newly built Nantong Xintiandi nearby, where only ten stores have moved in, and one of them is a 711 convenience store, which is really desolate. The hotel is close to the expressway, but it seems to be more than half an hour away from the old city area of Nantong.
4. Takeaway
Takeaway takes at least 1 hour, be sure to order early, and calling the front desk to have a robot deliver to your door is quite convenient.
