5-Star Hotels in Ningbo

The villa in Phase 2 was fantastic! The environment was lovely, and the two bedrooms were spotless. One of the rooms even had a bathtub, and there was a small riverside patio with a table, chairs, and a parasol. It would be perfect for a family chat out there if the weather was cooler. The hotel service was excellent. When checking in, I added Xianxian, our personal butler, on WeChat. After that, whenever we had a problem or needed a buggy, I just messaged Xianxian on WeChat, and the response was incredibly fast. Thumbs up! The hotel overall has a great resort feel. If you want to use a larger outdoor pool, you can go to their sister hotel, Kaiyuan Resort Jiulong Lake, for a swim.

The hotel service was excellent. Check-in was fast, and the room was spotlessly clean with no strange smells. All the facilities were complete and in good working order. The environment was quiet, so I wasn't disturbed by any noise. The staff were gentle and polite, and they resolved any issues promptly. There are plenty of dining and entertainment options nearby. My stay exceeded my expectations, and I highly recommend it!!!!!!!!!!!

This trip coincided with my child's birthday, and the hotel was kind enough to help with some simple birthday decorations and prepared a delicious birthday cake, which we all loved! The hotel views are absolutely stunning, and the room was very comfortable. It's super convenient to get around by car, and I also noticed a subway station nearby, so public transport wouldn't be an issue either. The location is right next to the Eastern New Town, with a shopping mall not far away. Lumi even called to check in before our arrival and continued to be attentive throughout our stay – the service was incredibly thoughtful. This will definitely be our go-to choice for future trips!

The A block's decor definitely shows its age, but it's impeccably clean, and the service is absolutely fantastic. The butler was always attentive, and in the evenings, they provided essential oils for aromatherapy, disposable bath liners, and herbal bath sachets. Every staff member greeted us politely. The location is perfect, right next to Tianyi Pavilion and Moon Lake, making it super convenient to walk to both.

The panoramic terrace suite we booked this time was definitely the best room in the entire hotel. Apparently, there are only two such suites in total, one on the sixth floor and one on the seventh. We got the one on the seventh floor, which is the outermost top-floor position shown in the first picture. The great thing about this location is that it's far from the central area, making it very quiet (the pool area can get quite noisy with activities). The view towards the reservoir is completely open, filled with lush greenery, and the scenery is fantastic. The terrace on the seventh floor is smaller than the one on the sixth, but in exchange, the indoor space is an entire extra room larger. During this Dragon Boat Festival, it was hot and rainy, so having this extra air-conditioned room turned out to be even more practical than the terrace. I was quite satisfied with the room's facilities and layout. However, there was one issue: on both nights, large flying insects (beetles) somehow got into the room. It seems like there might be a gap somewhere that isn't properly sealed (I don't think we let them in when opening the door, as bugs this size would be very noticeable). I suggest the hotel checks this. The hotel offers a wealth of activities suitable for families. This time, we mainly enjoyed the lake boat ride, the swimming pool, and go-karts. My child loved it and had a great time, insisting I give a five-star review! Regarding dining, the breakfast quality doesn't quite match that of a typical five-star hotel, though the variety is decent. The hotel's Chinese restaurant offers average, run-of-the-mill lunch and dinner options, and the prices aren't too expensive. Driving half an hour to Zhenhai offers more choices. The hotel's butler service was quite attentive, and all the staff we encountered were very friendly. The small gift received upon check-out was also a nice touch. Overall, our experience this time was very good.

This time, I brought my pregnant wife for a two-night stay at the Cordis Hotel Ningbo Dongqian Lake, and overall, it exceeded our expectations, especially thanks to Annie. Location and Environment: The hotel is right by Dongqian Lake, and the gardens have a charming Jiangnan aesthetic. An evening stroll by the lake was incredibly therapeutic. Room and Facilities: We had originally booked a different room type, but after Annie learned my wife was pregnant before our check-in, she proactively upgraded us to a room in the Baby Bella building. The room was very quiet, had excellent natural light, and the bedding was comfortable, allowing my pregnant wife to rest very well. The entire building offered high privacy and easy access, which is very friendly for travel during pregnancy. Dining and Service: Breakfast was abundant, with both local specialties and Western options. The service was consistently excellent, especially Annie, who meticulously coordinated our needs before check-in. During our stay, she helped us with the room upgrade and arranged for a quiet area. Her thoughtful and attentive service throughout made us feel very at ease. Recommended for: It's suitable for families with children, couples, and those traveling with seniors or pregnant women looking to relax. Nearby attractions like Xiaoputuo and Hanling Old Street are just a short drive away. Special thanks to Annie for all her attentive service before, during, and after our stay, which made this short trip during pregnancy exceptionally warm.

True to its reputation as a five-star landmark in Ningbo, the Nanyuan Universal Hotel boasts excellent facilities. The rooms are spacious and quiet, with outstanding soundproofing. Smart curtains and a well-equipped work desk cater perfectly to business travelers. They even thoughtfully recommend local eateries and travel routes. The service is impeccable, striking the perfect balance and truly delivering that high-end 'home away from home' feeling. My stay was absolutely flawless!

Wanted to go to the beach outside the hotel, but didn't have the right shoes. What to do? You can exit from the outdoor pool on the first floor of the Haitain Building. After registering, you can get a hand tag and change into a pair of slippers in the changing room. You can only exit to the beach; returning to the hotel requires a small detour. On the first day, the water looked a bit yellowish, which was a bit disappointing, but unexpectedly, the next day the sea color was much more normal. I wonder if it has something to do with the tides and waves? Plus, with the cloudy weather, it was perfect for photos! The food at both the buffet and the Chinese restaurant was good. The Chinese restaurant's dishes are made to order, so they're very fresh, and the prices are acceptable. For children over 1.5 meters, breakfast costs an additional 79 yuan.

I finally got to experience the much-anticipated Park Hyatt Ningbo for the first time, and it was a perfect trip from start to finish. I absolutely have to give a special shout-out to the duty manager, Jim! Jim proactively contacted me before I even arrived to confirm my travel needs, which was incredibly thoughtful. Upon arrival, he specifically upgraded us to a Deluxe Courtyard Twin Room. The courtyard was secluded and tranquil, and the room's layout was elegant, making our stay incredibly comfortable. Throughout our entire stay, he would frequently message us to check in, asking if our meals and activities were enjoyable. When we had questions, he responded super quickly. His service was attentive yet discreet, never feeling intrusive. As for the hotel itself, it's nestled by Dongqian Lake, with white walls and dark tiles, perfectly embodying the ambiance of a Jiangnan garden. Every step offers a picturesque scene, perfect for photos. The room hygiene and quality of amenities were also top-notch. It was truly Jim's meticulous and personalized service that made this first stay so full of surprises and made us feel right at home. I genuinely recommend it to friends vacationing in Ningbo. Next time I'm back at Dongqian Lake, I'll definitely be staying at Park Hyatt Ningbo again!

The family room is a two-bedroom apartment with a living room, and both bedrooms have TVs, which is very convenient. However, our room faced the road, not the Sanjiang River. I'm not sure if there are also parent-child rooms on the opposite side. The soundproofing is excellent, and we slept well. The room decor has an old-money style. The front desk service was very responsive and friendly. The parking lot is a bit old. The location is convenient; you can walk to Tianyi Square. The popular shops like Jimau Duitang and A Mao Restaurant are also within walking distance, and the food is quite good. It's easy to rent an electric scooter downstairs, and you can ride to the Old Bund, which is also not far if you prefer to walk.
