Howard Johnson Pearl Plaza Wuhan

Unbeatable location. At the core place of Hankou. Across street from the river park. Countless great restaurants and shops. The view from the top is fantastic. Breakfast and executive lounge are wonderful. Spacious room. The only downside is that it’s a little bit too old but still fine.

After so many years living in China I finally made it to Wuhan in early July 2022 with a good friend of mine. We chose the Howard Johnson Pearl becasue of its excellent and convenient location in the historic Hankou District (which is where many of the European trades settled and turned into the commercial and political center during the Occupation Times). The hotel is right in front of the historic Bund waterfront and around the hotel many of the old buildings are well preserved, with many cafes, creatives spaces and cool rooftop viewing platforms to explore. These are all within walking distance, as are some great night markets and bar streets. You can also go for a swim in the river in the morning. Although the hotel and its decoration is a little bit dated (built maybe 20 years ago), it is well maintained and the staff service is friendly and excellent - I travelled from Shanghai when the covid situation was making it hard for travellers from the city to go around the country but the staff were very helpful with covid tests, codes, etc. and made us feel very relaxed. They have a spacious 25m swimming pool with stunning views of the city and riverfront and I'd suggest booking an executive room with great views of the city for your stay. Will definitely go back to Wuhan and stay here! Thank you for making our trip so much easier and comfortable.

Nice place to stay. Very kind staff. Nice breakfast. Good located at the riverfront. Good heated rooms. Enjoy the view. Best is having dinner at the top of the hoteI. I really can recommend it !!! Just go there.
