We just returned from Nanchang and stayed at the Jiangxi hotel. We were adopting as were all the Americans we saw at the hotel. The staff at the hotel are definitely above average. Take advantage of the laundry service. It was very inexpensive and it was back promptly the same evening at 6 pm. The beds, however, are very hard. We even went so far to purchase blow up pool floats to try to sleep on, but it didn't really help too much. There is a Walmart down the street and you can find dry supplies there. The restaurant in the hotel had some very interesting items such as crispy fried dog meat and turtle soup which included the whole turtle, shell and all. I purchased the menu to show everyone at home because I knew they wouldn't believe it. Others found some items that they said were very good but too spicy for us. The concierge was wonderful. She kept a Pizza hut menu in her drawer and would order for us and have it delivered for a minimal amount of money. Needless to say, we ate alot of Pizza Hut. You cannot drink the water but the hotel supplied bottle water to use for drinking and brushing. They had a comfortable bar area with a few beer and liquor choices. You can't use the ice though so we stuck with bottled coke and an occasional Heineken. Bring plenty of snacks from home. In the morning they had a breakfast buffet. The only thing resembling anything western was cooked to order eggs and white toast. If you like Chinese food for breakfast, there is plenty of choices and they changed every day. The fruit looked wonderful but we were warned off of that also so we didn't try it. Don't worry if you are going to the White swan next, it is a delightful change with plenty to eat, plenty shopping and a georgous hotel.
