Opening Speech by Ms. Zhang Xiaoqing, Chief Executive Officer of Nanjing Ying’nFlo Hotel
In her opening speech, Ms. Zhang Xiaoqing, Chief Executive Officer of Ying’nFlo Hotels, stated that as another important strategic layout for the brand to deepen its presence in the Yangtze River Delta region, Nanjing Ying’nFlo Hotel will inherit the core philosophy of "Rejuvenate Your Best Self" and the multi-functional positioning of "Light Travel · Social Connection · Business Convenience". It will not only carry forward the century-old service heritage of The Langham, but also integrate diverse and innovative experiences into Jinling. By offering vibrant and localized experiences that resonate with local life, the hotel will inject a unique "Ying’nFlo Vitality" into this city that perfectly blends profound historical heritage with dynamic modern energy.
Wherever the Ying’nFlo Breeze Blows, It Ignites New Momentum for Local Culture and Tourism.

Nanjing Ying’nFlo Hotel is located in the core area of Hongshan New City, Xuanwu District, and serves as a key component of the "Zhuangguan Tianxia" Integrated Consumption International Block. It is only a 10–15 minute drive from major transportation hubs and core cultural & tourism landmarks such as Nanjing Railway Station, Xuanwu Lake and Purple Mountain, and merely 700 meters away from the east gate of Hongshan Forest Zoo, which is soon to open to tourists.
Here, guests can not only get close to nature and embrace cultural heritage, but also immerse themselves in urban trends and experience local life. A diverse array of nighttime entertainment activities further expands the all-day consumption scenarios. Leveraging this vibrant, young and developing community, Nanjing Ying’nFlo Hotel is committed to creating multi-dimensional travel & residence scenarios that integrate natural coexistence with urban exploration, emerging as a vital hub connecting local resources and international platforms.
As one of the core projects of Ying’nFlo in its Yangtze River Delta layout, the opening of this first Nanjing property further consolidates the strategic foundation for the brand’s regional development. Moving forward, Ying’nFlo will continue to respond to the policy guidelines for the integrated and high-quality development of tourism in the Yangtze River Delta. Building on the synergy between Hangzhou and Nanjing, the brand will accelerate the expansion of new properties in the region, inject sustainable travel & residence vitality into the cultural and tourism ecosystem of the Yangtze River Delta, and join hands with industry partners to create a broader prospect for development.
Where the Breeze Moves, It Reawakens Multi-Dimensional Travel & Residence Sensations
Centered around the four core brand pillars—Effortless Ease, Positive Growth, Peace of Mind and Shared Aspirations—Nanjing Ying’nFlo Hotel focuses on breaking the boundaries of traditional accommodation, integrating comfortable experiences with travel inspiration. The hotel has carried out a full-scale upgrade of its spaces, creating diverse scenarios that cater to both efficient business trips and family stays.
Lobby of Nanjing Ying’nFlo Hotel
In terms of overall design, Nanjing Ying’nFlo Hotel continues the brand’s iconic golden ratio, creating a relaxed and comfortable "Space of Freedom". Beyond its classic design elements, the hotel achieves innovative breakthroughs in soft furnishings this time. Taking the brand’s red sphere—the Ying’nFlo Factor—as the inspiration source, it transforms intangible vibes and energy into tangible experiences through rotating red windmills at the entrance, spherical lamps placed at the front desk, and dynamic Ying’nFlo Factors among the urban silhouettes in the public areas. These elements connect every scene from the entrance to the guest rooms, forming a vibrant experiential space. It aims to evoke young people’s yearning for freedom and exploration, stimulate their sense of participation and belonging in the space, while conveying the brand’s positive and progressive spirit of "Moving Forward with the Breeze".

Nanjing Ying’nFlo Hotel Refreshes with the "Shang Xia" Bath & Body Care Collection
The hotel has further upgraded the guest experience across multiple dimensions:
On one hand, it has carefully selected the bath & body care collection from Shang Xia, a contemporary Oriental lifestyle brand. Boasting a mild and delicate texture paired with an elegant woody fragrance, the collection adds a refined touch and a sense of reassurance to the stay with its unique "olfactory memory".
Fitness Center of Nanjing Ying’nFlo Hotel
On the other hand, the hotel further integrates its brand philosophy of "Rejuvenate Your Best Self" into the guest room experience. For the first time, customized fitness courses are directly integrated into the in-room TV system. Guests can start their workout sessions with one click on the TV, eliminating the need for mobile phone screen casting. Combined with lightweight fitness equipment such as yoga mats and skipping ropes provided in the rooms, guests can stretch their bodies and relax their minds at any time in a private space, maintaining a balanced and energetic state throughout their journey.
"FloLab Sound Lab" and "Sound Library" at Nanjing Ying’nFlo Hotel
Meanwhile, in addition to continuing the brand’s iconic FloLab Sound Lab, the hotel has added an open Sound Library right outside the podcast studio. Guests can scan the QR code to enjoy a curated list of audiobooks narrated by podcasters. Equipped with professional audio equipment, the podcast studio is open to the public free of charge by appointment. It also hosts irregular community events, aiming to serve as a bridge connecting guests with the city, as well as a gathering spot for local podcast creators, cultural communities and sound enthusiasts. Every listening moment and every conversation will turn into warm echoes during the journey, becoming memorable and resonant travel & residence memories.
Urban Exploration Map of Nanjing Ying’nFlo Hotel
As you step into the hotel lobby, a carefully crafted wall displaying the Nanjing Urban Exploration Map catches your eye instantly. Featuring over 40 recommended spots including Six Dynasties relics, Republican-era streets, trendy cultural and creative blocks, and local food eateries, it resembles a contemporary "Along the River During the Qingming Festival" of Jinling.
More than just a guide to the city’s long-famed tourist attractions, this map invites every guest to follow the breeze, and feel the vivid, beating pulse of Nanjing.
"RAW Project" Eco-Friendly Exhibition Wall
In addition, Ying’nFlo has joined hands with lifestyle brand ITO to set up a "RAW Project" Eco-Friendly Exhibition Wall at its first Nanjing property. Production leftovers are revitalized through creative design and transformed into aesthetically distinctive works.
Based on their shared commitment to sustainability, the two parties plan to continue their dedicated ESG cooperation in the future. This initiative will integrate the "beauty of regeneration" into daily travel and residence experiences, and fully practice an eco-friendly, low-carbon lifestyle.
"Symbiosis with Nature" Themed Tour Activity
At this grand opening event, Ying’nFlo also joined hands with Friends of Nature, one of China’s earliest established environmental NGOs, to invite on-site guests to embark on an immersive ecological tour at Hongshan Forest Zoo. Accompanied by professional guides, participants observed animal behaviors from a friendly and intimate perspective, and gained an understanding of the urban goodwill behind biodiversity conservation. Leveraging Friends of Nature’s dedicated efforts in environmental education and ecological communities, Ying’nFlo’s sustainability commitment is no longer just words on paper, but transformed into tangible and perceptible local practices.
Rooted in Jinling, Forging Ahead on a New Journey
Ying’nFlo has always believed that the significance of
"travel & residence" goes beyond accommodation—it lies in the lasting resonance of exploring the city and integrating into nature. This year, the brand will expand from the Yangtze River Delta to northern and central-western China, planning to open 8 to 10 new properties in cities including Dalian, Changsha, Qingdao and Shanghai. It will extend this philosophy and commitment to more distant journeys, emerging as an urban window that accompanies travelers and residents to reawaken themselves and perceive life anytime, anywhere.
