Hotsprings are great for relaxing especially in the evenings that's the main draw of this hotel. The hotel is clean and comfortable with beautiful surroundings. Recently this hotel was renovated after it was taken over by Howard Johnson. I think the facilities have increased or improved for kids (e.g. large play centre and water play area), but it was a little disappointing that hotel guests have to pay for it. The breakfast buffet has decreased in size and cannot say there was much change in quality. Anyway breakfast was pretty cheap and some fees are pretty low.

The ‘hot spring’ was an highlight, the bike ride ( yeah, electric for 24 hours) from next door bike hire, awesome. We had so much fun, could park the electric bikes without any hassle at the hotel bike park. Due to heavy rain we called the bike shop who agreed to pick them up by car the following day, without us having to take the back by ourselves. And the hotel was very helpful to leave them behind. Everyone , without fail, has been trained in customer service - it’s noticed! A wave and hello, always given whoever you pass. Yes, I would stay here happily again in the future! Ernst New Zealand
Response from Property: The passing time has become a beautiful embellishment in the journey. By chance, we met you. By chance, you chose us. There are too many choices in life, and every choice you make is a kind of fate. , thank you for the fate that allowed us to meet you. We hope that our service can bring you warmth and help you eliminate the fatigue during the journey. Xiaohao is very grateful for your praise of the hotel and looks forward to seeing you again! Xiaohao wishes you happiness every day!

Expansive breakfast included. Dinner was good, but the proximity to Hanling and the selection of restaurants was even better. Courteous and responsive staff. Pleasant surroundings. Clean room with good service. Afternoon fruit and water delivered to the room.
By staying on this side of Dongqian Lake, we were encouraged to see more natural and less crowded sites. It really was a getaway.
Now I need to go back in the fall or winter to see more sites and enjoy the hot springs.
Response from Property: Every city will always have a reason to miss, every season we have to give up the scenery, each hotel has their sweet and warm memories, hope Ningbo Dongqian Lake Hengyuan hotel will be your memories of the most warm and unique that!

The experience was very pleasant. I went there with my wife and daughter along with one more couple. We enjoyed our stay pretty much. The food in the Chinese restaurant on the second floor was very delicious. I wish the breakfast was a bit better.
The hot spring area is amazing! With so many different hot springs it's pretty easy to find privacy with your family in friends. The room was clean and beautiful. There is an old village very close by when you can find many souvenirs and food, as well as to experience the spirit of the village walking the small streets aside from the main touristic alley. From the village you can get on a hiking trail and enjoy the beautiful nature around the lake. I will definitely visit the hotel again!

Stayed in the hotel for one day, but the trip was too short to have fun. The service was considerate, the environment was beautiful, and the time was peaceful. Travel during the off-peak summer vacation, a real recuperation vacation, the hotel has many entertainment activities, and it was unexpectedly comfortable to take a hot spring bath at night in this season. Dinner was later scheduled at the skylight barbecue, which was a strong experience. The next day, the breakfast was buffet, with many categories, and I ate my favorite noodles. I would like to thank housekeeper Susan for her care, and I will arrange the trip next time.

I must write a good review for this treasure hotel! It is so comfortable. I stocked up on hot spring tickets before. Today, I took my girlfriend to experience Erlingshan Hot Spring during off-peak travel. The hotel is now in the off-season and there are not many people. The experience has not declined at all. The room should have been air-conditioned in advance. As soon as I entered the room, I washed away the heat. All the staff were very polite. I forgot to bring swimming trunks. The hotel also has a small supermarket where I can buy them. The hot spring experience is especially good. Indoors, you can see that all the dead corners are cleaned very cleanly, decorated very beautifully, and the temperature is very comfortable. The hot spring scenery is very good and the greenery is good. The outdoor hot spring pool water is crystal clear. There are free fruit biscuits and drinks in the hot spring rest area. It is a comfortable holiday experience. I highly recommend it.

The breakfast is very rich. There are freshly made tofu pudding and handmade buns, which are super delicious. There are also a variety of noodles with various choices. It is a really delicious breakfast that makes you full. It is also very comfortable to soak in the hot springs at night. It is so comfortable to soak in various pools that you want to fall asleep. The children's play area is also very large and fun. The hotel environment is great. There is a swan lake and a whole large lawn. There are talent shows at night. It's great. I will stay in this hot spring hotel next time.

Advantages:
1. All staff members are trained and will greet guests with a smile whenever they see them, which is a good feeling.
2. During the summer vacation, the hotel arranged activities related to children to increase the occupancy rate of parent-child customers, which is a good marketing point. The hotel's own hot springs, fish kissing, water park, and children's park are all more attractive to parent-child customers.
3. The hotel is not far from Hanling Old Street, a few minutes by car and about 15 minutes on foot. There are many restaurants on the old street with moderate prices. It is difficult to get a taxi back from the old street!
4. The building manager has a good service attitude and is responsive. There are welcome fruits in the room for 2 days. There is also a waiter who delivers pillows to help deal with the problem that the balcony door cannot be locked. As a result, the direction on the paper of the locking prompt is reversed.
Disadvantages:
1. The bathroom in the room has a strong smell. Especially when you close the door for a night and go in the morning, or when you come back after going out, there is a smell when you enter the room.
2. Staying in a room for one night gives you two hot spring tickets, which is not very reasonable. Whether you are a one-child or two-child family, you need to buy a ticket for the child. Moreover, the front desk staff at the hot spring lobby said that as long as the child can walk, he or she must buy a ticket.
3. The hotel has a weekend lunch buffet special before August 25, 38 yuan for children and 108 yuan for adults. The price is indeed cheap, but the variety of meals is small and the quality is not good. Steamed swimming crabs are okay, but only a few come out after a long time, and you can't grab them at all. Don't eat the dish of fried swimming crabs, because there is no meat and it is not fresh. If there are spicy crayfish, it is recommended not to eat it. The gills are all black and the meat is empty. It is recommended that the selection of products must be checked. This quality will only lower the grade of the hotel. (I don't know how the dishes are for the evening buffet?)
4. It is recommended to train the level of the staff who fry steaks. It is really too old to bite, and the knife can't cut it. The lamb chops are too old to bite.

Ningbo Dongqian Lake Howard Johnson Hotel
Facilities: The facilities are a bit old, especially the bed is sunken
Sanitation: Not bad
Environment: The environment is good, next to Dongqian Lake. But there seems to be an unfinished building next to the hotel.
Service: The waiter will take the initiative to greet and is quite enthusiastic. Breakfast is standard.

The hotel has an elegant environment, shaded by trees, spacious rooms, and the service is especially commendable. The suggestions for improvement are purely personal opinions: the hotel front desk can arrange more staff to reduce the waiting time for guests when checking in. It may be a bit crowded during breakfast time on weekends. It took more than half an hour to get a seat with a plate. It is recommended that the hotel can make some appropriate improvements.

The room is very clean, the children like it very much, the hotel facilities are also very family-friendly, the weather outside is hot, the hotel is very comfortable. The children played for a day, although the place to play is not big. But it is enough. The housekeeper Xiao Bao answered all questions and responded to all requests.
