Nanshan Hotel

I stayed for three nights, and it was an unexpectedly perfect experience. I booked a business suite, which was clean, tidy, and newly renovated with a very comfortable sofa. Nanshan Zhuanjia Lou (Experts' Building) is located within Nanjing Normal University, known as the most beautiful campus in the East, which is also the former site of Ginling Women's University and Suiyuan. Besides the comfortable accommodation, you can also stroll through the campus, enjoy its beautiful scenery, visit the Nanjing Normal University Museum to learn about its history, which is truly refreshing. They even provide complimentary tickets to the Six Dynasties Museum. The location is very convenient, close to Wutaishan subway station, and there are plenty of dining options nearby.

I stumbled upon this hotel on Trip.com, realizing it's located within Nanjing Normal University's campus. I decided to give it a try to relive the university atmosphere. Free parking is a bonus. I stayed in the Experts' Building, which seems to house many international students and likely doubles as a dorm for them, also used for business guests. The building is a bit old, and the room wasn't huge, but it was relatively clean. The front desk staff were very friendly. I took some time to explore the campus and had a meal at the international students' cafeteria, though the food selection wasn't extensive. The next day, I had planned to sleep in, but the sound of a lawnmower downstairs woke me up before 8 AM.
