“A Zen Hilton Resort in Nanjin Suburb”

Hilton Nanjing Niushoushan is located south of Nanjin in the suburb. It is not directly on the Nanjin subway line. However, you can take a taxi to reach line S1 and/or S3, then, you can reach other Nanjin attractions, or to the highspeed rail station (Nanjing South Station) or Nanjin Airport. Compensating for the subpar location, what a splendid facility it is. The hotel boosts a great lobby area, with splendid art works and zen gardens throughout the public area. There are a couple of public, free tea options provided in the lobby area, further boosting the zen feel of the facility. As a Hilton Diamond elite, I was upgraded to a suite. The room is spacious, boost a separate bedroom and a living room area. I particularly like the calligraphy set in the bedroom area, and the Japanese tea set in the living room area, this provided an added zen feel. The concierge lounge is not open yet at the hotel. However, for the guest with concierge lounge priviledge, the hotel serves the afternoon tea and the dinner at the main lounge café. I found that the quality of the afternoon tea and the dinner to be pretty good and satisfactory (though the portion is on the small side). The breakfast buffet has plenty of selection for both the western food (fruit, pastries, muffins, waffles, yogurt, cereals, bread, cheeses, hams and sausages) and the Chinese breakfast items (wonton, noodles, buns, soft tofu, congee, vermicelli noodle soup, spring rolls, fried dumplings, etc..) The hotel provides a free shuttle to Niushoushan. However, as the hotel is so close (only about 500m) away from Niushoushan, and you will need to walk a lot in Niushoushan any way. I felt that the shuttle is an overkill. It might as well just provide walking direction to Niushoushan.

This is a perfect venue for large gatherings events as well as small groups visiting the gigantic temple next door. Very cool decorations although a bit on dark side. The Chinese restaurant is excellent whereas the open buffet isnt up to expectations but ok for breakfast. The personnel is new not experienced but eager to learn. The electronics in the rooms are complicated for me but I guess should be ok for the new generation. Overall a good hotel to say but the temple nextdoor is a must see !!
