The Lakeview Xuanwu Hotel (Xuanwu Fandian) is the newest of Nanjing's five-star hotels and has quickly established itself as one of the best. Overlooking Xuanwu Lake and affording great views of Zijin Shan (Purple Mountain) from upper floors, this Worldhotels member is handy to Nanjing's prime shopping and business district, including the Nanjing International Exhbition Centre, which is within easy walking distance. The lobby decor is outstanding, and the rooms and service follow suit, with impressive attention to detail, from the oversized towels to the in-room data ports. Guests can also take advantage of the hotel's various recreational and leisure facilities, which include a swimming pool, sundeck, fitness center and health spa.
