Romantic Hotels in Ningbo

When looking for a hotel in a city, the key factors are, first, needs, second, location, and only then, price. It's truly delightful when all three align perfectly, which is exactly what happened during my recent stay in Ningbo. From the moment I stepped through the main entrance to interacting with the front desk and floor staff, their willingness to assist with every request was heartwarming. Ms. Wang Yingcong at the front desk noticed my mobility challenges and my age, and for several days, she consistently showed concern and proactively resolved any necessary issues, which deeply touched us. Employees with such a strong service-oriented mindset and work ethic deserve high praise. Thank you very much!

Location & Transportation: The hotel is nestled within the Zhengshi Shiqifang Scenic Area in Shiqifang Village, Zhenhai District, right by Jiulong Lake. It's surrounded by mountains and water, offering a superb environment. Driving there is quite convenient, with a spacious surface parking lot that includes plenty of spots and even EV charging stations. Service: The service here is truly commendable. I've been many times, and now they offer a butler service. Our butler, Xianxian, provided excellent and attentive service. All our questions were quickly communicated and resolved. She also friendly reminded us about hotel itineraries and activities. Room & Facilities: The hotel and room facilities are very new. The indoor areas are well-maintained, and the bedding is great, ensuring a comfortable sleep. The room comes with a bathtub and a small private courtyard, making it perfect for a relaxing getaway. Breakfast: Breakfast is quite abundant. Even with many guests, the food was always replenished promptly, and the dishes were good. Restaurant: There's a restaurant called 'Zheng's Kitchen.' Their yellow croaker seafood noodles are incredibly fresh, and other dishes also taste good. The value for money is decent.

The room was clean and tidy, and quite smart. The soundproofing was excellent, so the room was very quiet. The location is superb, and the price was reasonable, offering great value for money. The common areas were also decent. It was such a thoughtful touch to come back after being out and enjoy a refreshing iced plum and lemon tea in the lobby, especially during the scorching summer heat. They also offer freshly ground coffee. The location is indeed excellent, making it convenient to get anywhere. I only had one night in Ningbo, so I went to the Old Bund in the evening and visited Tianyi Pavilion Library during the day, which was a relatively comfortable and not-too-tiring experience. My impression of Atour remains consistently good.

The lake view is beautiful, and the room is very spacious, complete with a bathtub. There are plenty of facilities for kids, and the swimming pool is huge. In the lobby, children can watch cartoons, and in the evenings, there are ring toss and 'touhu' (pitch-pot) games. The birthday decorations were adorable!

It’s a B&B that people like at first glance (at least that’s what I think). Whether it’s the facilities in the room or the scenery at the door (right next to the Qixiakeng Ancient Road), I think this visit is worth it! The food is also very delicious. My child didn’t even take a few bites of the food he ordered from a small restaurant near Xikou last year. It was not to his liking and it was also noisy. Unexpectedly, the chopsticks didn’t stop today, which means it’s very delicious and indeed in line with our taste. , How can taro be so pink and waxy! Delicious! We are already discussing how to come and stay for a few days during the summer vacation. In summer, we can play in the small stream in front of our house! Walking around the ancient village in the evening has a beautiful artistic conception! Anyway, it’s a comfortable stay and a comfortable environment. Get up and go hiking on the Qixiakeng Ancient Trail after breakfast tomorrow, which is the perfect end to this two-day and one-night short trip! Goodbye in the summer~

Longest stay during business trip but probably wont return next time.. the room was not well lit especially the work table.. it was too dark to work with one mediocre table light! There was no a/c in the corridor and it smelled like mold given that it'd been raining for a few days when i was there.. and there was very minimal lighting along the corridor and the lift area.. creepy! The thing that really irked me was the motion detection lighting.. the light would go off even when i was in the toilet.. not cool! The one thing i really enjoyed was the robot sending my delivery meals and necessities to my room haha..

Nestled in a bamboo-ringed mountain hollow, Xikou Manxiugu B&B ingeniously tucks each forest villa into the hillside, creating a unique and secluded haven. Staying in these hollow villas, you can enjoy snow in winter, mist in spring, cicadas in summer, and autumn leaves, truly embracing the wild. You can imagine yourself as a free bird in the forest or an uninhibited 'wildling' from ancient times, far from the hustle and bustle. Wake up to the morning sun, watch the sunset in the evening, sip tea leisurely, enjoy a glass of wine at night, listen to the rain on the leaves, chat with friends, find romance with a loved one, or simply gaze at the starry sky. It’s simply delightful! I come back every other year for a few days; I arrive feeling weary and leave feeling completely refreshed. The villas at Manxiugu are diverse in style and shape – from two-story Gothic-inspired spires to charming Baroque wooden cabins. Each room has a pleasant woody fragrance that ensures a peaceful night's sleep. On hot days, you can enjoy a refreshing swim in the clear infinity pool. And the chef's culinary skills are truly exceptional – the food is delicious, not greasy, and incredibly appetizing, all at a reasonable price, so there's no need to dine out. The service philosophy is guest-first, with every request met and every detail handled until you're completely satisfied. I especially want to thank Miss Xiaoyu, who thoughtfully carried our bags and helped us, who aren't so young anymore, settle in comfortably. My detailed rambling is simply because my stay was so comfortable and satisfying, so I highly recommend everyone give it a try!

This beachfront resort is truly a healing escape. I have to specifically commend the poolside staff – they were consistently kind and enthusiastic, proactively offering drinking water and floats. They even reminded children to stay safe, showing a truly service-oriented approach that made the experience incredibly warm. The hotel's facilities are top-notch: a prime ocean-view balcony, indoor and outdoor dual swimming pools, and a private beach. It's perfect for families with kids, who could easily spend all day playing. The cleaning was also very meticulous. The only drawback was the front desk. On weekends, with high guest traffic, there were only a few counters open. The staff's procedures weren't smooth; checking orders and processing check-ins repeatedly got stuck, leading to a nearly 40-minute wait in line. I recommend the hotel open more front desk windows during peak season and provide better training for the front desk staff to resolve the check-in queue issue. Otherwise, such a wonderful environment could easily be marred by a frustrating check-in process.

The second time I came to Qiyu Valley, the room was upgraded, and the parent-child room of LOFT was a bit fairy tale. When we arrived early, we also let us check in early, and also sent peaches and wood lotus frozen. I heard that we went to play rafting and sent the child a water gun. The next day, I got up early to climb the mountain and enjoy the swing. It was a great experience.

The hotel's location on Dongqian Lake is a bit out of the way, but it's not a huge area to begin with, so it's not really that far. Some of the hotel rooms are located within Songbo Garden, offering beautiful views every time you come and go. The room facilities are excellent, except for the coffee machine. The hygiene is also very good. The outdoor private hot spring water circulates, and there's a roof overhead so you can enjoy it even on rainy days. I saw reviews mentioning a lack of privacy, so I specifically brought a swimsuit, but ended up not needing it. There are no lights on the mountain at night, so no one walks around. People upstairs definitely can't see in; it might also depend on the room type. The hotel's shuttle service is a bit infrequent; you often have to wait over ten minutes. On nice days, I'd just walk to the lobby, but on bad days, waiting that long was a bit frustrating. The breakfast selection is average, but the taste is very good. The front desk service could use some improvement. The lack of an indoor pool means there's not much for adults to do for leisure on rainy days.
