Jin Jiang Radisson Hotels has officially opened the Radisson Blu Hotel Nanjing South New Town, marking the debut of the brand’s flagship property in Nanjing and a further step in its expansion across the Yangtze River Delta.
Located in South New Town, one of Nanjing’s fastest-growing urban districts, the hotel combines Radisson Blu’s international hospitality standards with design elements inspired by the city’s cultural and aviation heritage.
The property forms part of the Sino-Finnish Cooperation and Exchange Center, a mixed-use development focused on international exchange, sustainability, and business growth.
300 rooms inspired by Nanjing’s heritage
The hotel offers 300 guestrooms and suites, with interiors influenced by Dajiaochang’s aviation history and contemporary interpretations of Nanjing culture. Selected rooms feature views of the Xiangshui River and the skyline of South New Town.
Its location near major rail transit lines also provides convenient access to commercial districts and transportation hubs across the city.
Focus on meetings, events, and business travel
Radisson Blu Hotel Nanjing South New Town places strong emphasis on the MICE and business travel segment. The hotel features around 4,300 square metres of meeting and event space, including three large pillarless ballrooms and nine multifunctional halls equipped with advanced audiovisual technology.
The facilities are designed to accommodate international conferences, corporate events, and large-scale banquets.
Dining options include four restaurants and social venues, ranging from the Aurora All-Day Dining Restaurant with local-inspired cuisine to the Ling Yun Chinese Restaurant specialising in Huaiyang and fusion dishes.
Additional facilities include a fitness centre, indoor swimming pool, and spa.
Hotel reflects Nanjing’s blend of history and innovation
Mao Xiao, Chief Executive Officer of Jin Jiang Radisson Hotels, said the hotel was designed to reflect both Nanjing’s historical identity and its modern ambitions.
“Nanjing is a city where history and innovation live side-by-side, and we wanted our new home in South New Town to reflect that,” he said.
“We want to be the heartbeat of this new district, helping Nanjing welcome the world with the warmth and professionalism it’s known for.”
Zhou Zhenguo, General Manager of Radisson Blu Hotel Nanjing South New Town, added that the property aims to offer guests a personalised experience rooted in local culture and contemporary design.
With its opening, the hotel is expected to further strengthen South New Town’s position as an emerging centre for international business, events, and hospitality in eastern China.
