For this trip to Hefei, I chose the Sunac Novotel, which was conveniently located just across the street from Sunac Resort. The lake-view rooms offered great views, and while the rooms were a bit old, they were clean and tidy overall, providing a comfortable stay.
After playing in the park and it started raining, we could immediately return to the hotel to rest. Their breakfast was plentiful, with a variety of options, and the food was quite good. The Shore Grassland is just a ten-minute walk away and worth a visit. It's about an hour's drive from Nanjing, making it a good option for weekend getaways.
