Nanning Spa Hotels

"The hotel's location is excellent, very close to Sanjie Liangxiang, Chaoyang Square, and Zhongshan Street. It's also convenient for visiting Qingxiu Mountain and Nanning Zoo. There are many great food options and entertainment nearby. Despite being on the roadside, it's very quiet with a lovely environment. Manager 962 at the lobby provided excellent service, and the cleaning staff were also wonderful; they specially gave me two kids' toothbrushes when they saw I had two children with me. A helpful tip: if you're heading to Sanjie Liangxiang, turn right a few dozen meters from the entrance, and there's an underpass that takes you directly there, protecting you from the elements. This avoids the long and busy surface crossing."

"I was staying there during the Liuzhou earthquake, and the tremors were quite noticeable. I heard there would be another one at midnight, which scared me so much I didn't know where to go. Around 11 PM, I just grabbed my slippers and a backpack and ran. I had initially planned to stay at Liyuan for a while with my child, as it's a family-friendly hotel and the open space seemed safer. So, I took a taxi there overnight. The front desk service was pretty good; they even upgraded me to a suite. Unfortunately, it was just me and my child, and the suite was at the very end of a corner. I'm a bit timid, so I was scared and didn't want to stay there. In the end, I switched back to a smaller room closer to the main road. The room was quite spacious, decorated in a vintage, 'old money' style, I guess. I'm not sure if it was just me or the design, but the toilet in the bathroom faced the window, and it had a glass door. Even though it was just me and my child, a transparent toilet was still a bit awkward. There's a small playground in the hotel's basement, next to the pool. I could smell some disinfectant, too. The playground was empty, and my child quickly got bored and left after a short while. They mentioned alpaca and goldfish feeding, but you can only feed the alpacas at specific times – not too early, not too late. My child wanted to feed them after breakfast, but it wasn't the right time, so they couldn't. By 11 AM, my child was already back for their nap. It felt more like a display than an actual activity. My child didn't sleep well overnight, so I wanted them to get some nap time and requested a late check-out until 2 PM. Close to the check-out time, I received a call asking if I wanted to extend my stay (I often check out around 2 PM, and no other hotel has ever called me about it). I'm not sure why they call it a family-friendly hotel; I feel it's more geared towards business travelers. When I was there, there was some internet conference going on, with a large group of people checking in at the lobby. Also, there were no kids' cartoon goodie bags on weekdays, only on weekends. I've stayed at many family-friendly hotels, and while this one has all the amenities, they seem like a budget version. My 3-year-old really couldn't enjoy themselves here. However, Nanning isn't a major tourist city, so perhaps this hotel is considered top-tier there."
