Howard Johnson Plaza Jindi ★★★★★
"Even though the hotel is a bit old, it's very clean and the staff are all super friendly with big smiles. It's about a 30-minute walk to the bike rental for the city wall night ride, but a taxi is much more convenient. Taxis are also great for getting to indoor attractions nearby. The breakfast spread offers a good variety, and they even brought a warm pear soup to our room at night, which was a lovely touch. Plus, there are tons of great food options around the hotel. Had a really enjoyable stay! 😊"

"Really enjoyed our stay here in this hotel. Excellent hotel, very clean, nicely decorated and very friendly staff. The breakfast is a 5-7 minute walk away, but it's really good (it's clean and quite healthy). I would highly recommend staying here, it's also within Gucheng walls which is a lovely and picturesque location."
