Howard Johnson IFC Plaza Ningb

hotel is extremely good and facilities is top class. we stayed there for one day. hotel is very neat and clean. breakfast is good and we had a lunch there as well. it was ok, as we are not used to traditional chinese food.

This hotel was such a disappointment to me. The hotel delivers all it promises, nice rooms, good breakfast a decent reception but an awful location if like me you are not in finance. If you have any spare time, there is no where to walk and nothing to do. It is in the financial district and near nothing other than banks and finance houses. I didn't know the city and there was no help from reception. Oh the cleaning staff are not up to scratch and don't wash dirty cups. I did not have a happy time in this hotel.

I stayed here for three nights and the hotel has given me a good impression. The location is good — about 0.3 mils (500 meters) from the Ningbo train station, where you can get buses and subway. It is close to the Moon Lake and TianYiGe. If you enjoy walking, it is about one mile from the major attractions in the city center. There are not many restaurants next to the hotel, except a small cafe in the North. However, if you go to MaYuan Road, there are quite several restaurants. The wifi works well and the staff are friendly.
