Traveling to Zhengzhou alone, I chose this long-standing Hilton in Zhengdong New District. To be honest, the hotel has been open for quite a few years, and the decor and facilities definitely show their age. They're not very trendy, and I didn't get the 'luxury' impact I was expecting. So why still give a good review? Because of the people.
I absolutely must give a shout-out to every staff member in the concierge department. They helped me out numerous times: from bringing and setting up a projector to delivering my takeaways multiple times, never showing an ounce of impatience. When I needed a wake-up call late at night, they responded quickly after I contacted them and ensured it was on time the next day. That reassuring feeling of 'every request is answered' was the only moment during this stay that made me feel, 'this truly is a Hilton.' Also, the swimming pool attendant was incredibly thoughtful, frequently asking if I needed a towel, and being as considerate as an old friend. The F&B department also did their best to answer my questions and help with my requests.
Ultimately, the core of a hotel is its people. It's quite rare to find such a dedicated team who genuinely care for guests, especially when the hardware is clearly outdated. If you also value being treated with care, this hotel might not amaze you, but its people will make you feel warm. I hope the hotel management sees this review and properly rewards every hardworking employee I mentioned above; they deserve it.
