Rising 62 stories above central Nanjing, this opulent Ritz-Carlton draws on the city’s imperial history while pairing Xuanwu Lake views with two Michelin-starred Chinese restaurants and a 58th-floor Club Lounge.
The Ritz-Carlton, Nanjing rises above Zhongshan Road in the city’s central business district, with views extending toward Xuanwu Lake, Purple Mountain and the urban skyline. The location puts commercial Nanjing directly outside while keeping many historic sights close.
Interiors interpret the city’s history as a capital of ten Chinese dynasties through art, decorative motifs and richly layered materials. Guest rooms are designed around large windows and standalone soaking tubs, with lake, mountain or city views.
The Ritz-Carlton Spa and indoor pool provide a high-rise wellness retreat, while the Club Lounge on the 58th floor remains accessible around the clock to eligible guests. The upper floors make height a constant part of the stay.
Dining has become a significant reason to visit. Pin Ning Fu and Dai Yuet Heen both hold Michelin stars in the 2026 guide, while FLAIR on the 62nd floor adds Southeast Asian dishes, champagne and nightlife.
The Ritz-Carlton, Nanjing is best for travelers who want the city’s history translated into contemporary luxury rather than recreated literally. The views and unusually strong Chinese dining give the hotel a clear identity within Nanjing’s modern skyline.
