Nanjing Bojin huajianjing·Pipa Mountain Residence

We loved and would even come back! Lovely personal and helpful service. Location is very good if you want to visit all the sights around purple mountain. Swimming pool looks great! We couldn’t enter as it was reserved for a birthday. Some recommendation/feedback: Please notify guests ahead of any birthday parties or related (which means pool is closed) so that guests can plan their stay in the pool respectively. Breakfast is ok; Western options could be improved (bread). Please include more hangers in the rooms. Please notify hotel guests of the parking fee ie that they have to inform reception each time they leave the parking / park‘s barrier.

The facilities we're very accessible and clean for the most part (the towel rack was duty and I only realised after cleaning my face with the face-towel that was placed on the rack). There was a restaurant which I didn't eat at, but they also offered room service between specific hours. The balcony, which I was looking forward to the most and also the main reason for booking this room, did not have a nice 'garden view' as advertised and was also right next to an escalator and within view of several other rooms which I felt was misrepresented in the online photos. The location is great if you're interested in spending time in the mountain and doing all the activities on offer like paddle boating, taking the cable car or going on hikes, but it's not so great if you want to get a taxi easily or go to restaurants as it's a 10 minute wait for a car and a 15min drive to get anywhere decent to eat. It's very close to some places like the Confucius temple though and if you're not interested in traveling far, it is also very beautiful there and you can easily enjoy just walking/cycling around the mountain and eat at the hotel-restaurant. One other thing to note was that although 30/32 degrees outside, the pool was unavailable to use, which was a huge bummer. I suggest it be noted on the website to avoid future travelers' disappointment. I was also afforded with a late check-out and friendly service right throughout my stay. I'll stay here again in the future.
