"I came all the way to Nanchang for Nicholas Tse's concert. After agonizing over hotels for ages, I finally booked the Deluxe River View Room at the Mercure Nanchang Tengwang Pavilion.
The moment I opened the door and pulled back the curtains, there it was—the Tengwang Pavilion standing right outside the window, with the Gan River flowing just below. My room was on a fairly high floor with an unobstructed view. By day, the ancient pavilion and river layered together exude a timeless charm; by night, once the lights come on, it’s a completely different world. The entire structure is outlined in warm lighting, casting its reflection across the river. You can take in the entire night view right from your bed, saving you from fighting the crowds at the scenic spot. After getting back from the concert, completely exhausted, taking a shower and leaning against the window to zone out while watching the city lights was the ultimate way to decompress and finally catch my breath.
As for dining, the breakfast was much more ”Nanchang” than I expected. I didn't hold high hopes for hotel breakfast beforehand, but as soon as I walked in, I saw a station cooking mixed rice noodles (banfen), right next to earthenware pot soup (wuguantang). The soup was simmered in tiny individual pots, and you could add your own toppings to the noodles. The taste was just as good as the famous spots outside that have long queues. Even better, breakfast is served until 11:00 AM, which is an absolute lifesaver for concert-goers. With my voice hoarse from shouting the night before, I could sleep in until 10:00 AM, saunter down for a leisurely meal, and avoid the morning rush.
What I appreciated most about the service was that it wasn't ”over-the-top or scripted.” When checking in at the front desk, the staff noticed I was there for the concert and proactively told me what time it would end and the best walking route back—none of that stiff, rehearsed script delivery. Bottled water was given out generously and was always available in the lobby. After returning from the concert with my throat burning, walking in and chugging half a bottle of water right away—little details like that are way more practical than any welcome fruit.
Location is definitely this hotel's strongest trump card. Cross a single street and you're at the North Gate of the Tengwang Pavilion; it's a mere 3 to 5-minute walk to the entrance. There’s a subway for getting to the concert, and walking back afterwards is a breeze. Head east downstairs for a few minutes and you'll hit the Dashiyuan Food Street—rice noodles, white sugar cakes, boiled street snacks. The day after the concert, I dived straight in for a food crawl, which was way more fun than hunting down chain restaurants in a mall. If you're here purely for sightseeing, this location easily connects the Tengwang Pavilion and Wanshou Palace into a single walking route. If you're here for a concert, it sits right in that sweet spot of being ”quiet amidst the hustle and bustle,” meaning you won't be kept awake by the outside noise when you return at night.
Half the price of the Deluxe River View Room goes to the view outside your window, and the other half goes to that bed where you can quietly recover after an exhausting concert. I came here for Nicholas Tse, but ended up captivated by the room's night view. If I ever visit Nanchang again, I’ll most likely stay here again."
