Nanjing! A budget-friendly hotel worth a second visit! It's so nice to stay here!

Ritz-Carlton Nanjing Experience: Luxury and Warmth Combined I heard that the Ritz-Carlton Nanjing is the benchmark for Ritz-Carlton hotels in the Jiangsu-Zhejiang-Shanghai area, so I decided to give it a try. The room rate was over CNY 2,400 per night, plus over CNY 1,000 for the executive lounge. Although the price was not low, it included five meals and an additional 10,000 points, which made it a great choice for a relaxing staycation. So I went for it! 💰️Average Spend The overall cost was high, with a room rate of over CNY 2,400 plus over CNY 1,000 for the executive lounge. However, it included a wide range of dining services, making it a worthwhile experience for those seeking a high-quality hotel experience. 🏘️️️Room Type/Layout The room I stayed in had a reasonable layout and was spacious and comfortable, meeting the needs of a vacation. Although the unique design of the room type was not specifically mentioned, the overall living experience was comfortable, with soft mattresses and pillows ensuring a good night's sleep, just like at the Hyatt Regency Jeju Island, providing a comfortable sleep experience. 🛌Supplies/Facilities The room was equipped with Diptyque toiletries, my favorite fig scent, leaving a pleasant fragrance on my body after use. Two sets of pajamas were also thoughtfully prepared, with attention to detail. However, the hairdryer was not a Dyson, which was a bit disappointing. The hotel's executive lounge offered executive privileges, including breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea, dinner (happy hour), and evening sweet wine and desserts. The quality of the dishes was higher than other hotels, especially the unlimited supply of 5J ham for dinner, which was of excellent quality. If you need salmon, just ask the staff. The hotel's car service was very thoughtful. You can make a reservation by calling from your room, and it will be arranged within five minutes. Before getting in the car, the seat heating and massage were preheated, and hot towels were prepared for hand wiping. The driver was very enthusiastic and introduced many Nanjing specialties along the way. The pool facilities were also good, although the pool and changing room were not connected, which was slightly inconvenient. The difference in indoor temperature and water temperature required some courage to get into the water, but it did not affect the overall swimming experience. 🧹Soundproofing/Cleanliness The room and public areas were clean and tidy, with good soundproofing, allowing for a quiet rest in the room without being disturbed by the outside world. 💗Other Tips 1. Welcome Gift: The hotel's welcome gift was sincere, with the room decorated with roses and chocolates, fruits, and a handwritten greeting card. During turndown service, I met the floor manager who personally wrote a greeting card, and there were also Nanjing postcards and bookmarks, which were great for souvenirs. 2. Little Lion Plush Toy: Before checking in, I informed the hotel that it was an anniversary with my boyfriend and hoped to receive a little lion plush toy. At first, there was none in the room, which was a bit disappointing. Later, I went to the 40th-floor spa center and bought a salted duck little lion. Due to some small incidents, the hotel gave me a Confucius little lion, unexpectedly completing the collection of two styles, making up for the previous disappointment. 3. Location Advantage: The hotel is located in Deji, with a very advantageous location, making shopping very convenient and not far from attractions. Deji Plaza is large, with a full range of brands, providing a great shopping experience. 4. Executive Lounge Experience: The executive lounge offers a wide range of dining services, but after eating a lot, the taste may seem similar. If you haven't experienced the over CNY 1,000 executive lounge service, you can try it once, but in terms of cost-effectiveness, it may not be particularly high. Overall, the Ritz-Carlton Nanjing was decent, with a noticeable sense of sincerity and dedication from the hotel. The hotel's style and decor were of high quality, making it an unforgettable hotel experience.
