Hanfu Hotel
A relaxed stay with a simple indoor pool
About this hotel
This hotel keeps its offering deliberately simple: an indoor pool, a restaurant and banquet halls rather than a full spa-and-hot-tub wellness floor, which suits travelers who want a comfortable five-star room without paying for amenities they will not use. Free Wi-Fi and parking are included, and the understated rooms and suites lean toward a relaxed, low-key atmosphere rather than a corporate or luxury one. Kid-friendly touches broaden the appeal to families, and the banquet halls suggest a property that also hosts local events alongside individual hotel guests. Airport transfers run roughly 47 minutes by taxi, in line with several other properties covered on this list further from the airport itself.

Our take
This suits travelers who want a dependable indoor pool and a comfortable room without the scale, or the price, of the bigger five-star towers on this list. The relaxed, understated atmosphere is a genuine change of pace from the corporate towers nearer downtown. Anyone specifically wanting a spa, hot tub or extensive dining options should look at one of the larger properties covered here instead of this one.
- ✓Book a straightforward room here if you want a comfortable indoor-pool stay without the cost of a larger five-star tower.
- ✓Use the indoor pool in the early evening before the restaurant fills up with hotel guests and event attendees.
- ✓Ask about banquet hall events during your stay, they can occasionally affect common-area noise levels.

Why guests love itWe wanted something comfortable but not overdone, and this hotel's simple indoor pool and relaxed rooms fit that well. The restaurant was straightforward but reliable, and we appreciated not paying for a spa or hot tub we would not have used during a short, practical stay in Nanjing, which kept the overall cost of the trip noticeably lower than expected.
