## Questions
**How much does a hotel that accepts foreigners in Nanjing cost?**
Typically about $96 a night; most of the 54 with a previously observed price cost $74 to $119. For comparison, the typical hotel in Nanjing is about $98. Prices are earlier observations, not quotes; the booking site shows the live price for your dates.

**Which are the top-ranked hotels in Nanjing that accept foreigners?**
On Staylist World: Hampton by Hilton Nanjing North Station Medical Valley (guest rating 9.8 from 1,316 reviews), Holiday Inn Nanjing Harbour by IHG (guest rating 9.7 from 583 reviews), Ming Hotel Nanjing MGallery Collection (guest rating 9.7 from 3,138 reviews). The order weighs each score by how many guests reviewed the hotel, and no hotel can pay to rank higher.

**Where are most hotels in Nanjing that accept foreigners?**
Jiangning District (16), Pukou District (7), Xuanwu District (7), Gulou District (7), and more.

**Can foreigners stay at any hotel in Nanjing?**
No. Hotels in mainland China need police approval to register foreign guests, and some smaller hotels do not have it. Every hotel on this list states on its booking page that it accepts guests from all countries. Book online rather than walking in: you can be turned away at a hotel without the approval, and staff cannot make an exception.

**What happens when a foreigner checks in at a hotel in Nanjing?**
The front desk scans your passport and registers you with the police for you; it usually takes a few minutes. Staff may speak little English, but most use a translation device. Many hotels ask for no deposit; when they do, it is usually ¥100 to ¥300 by Alipay, WeChat Pay or foreign card, refunded at checkout.

**Should I book my Nanjing hotel in advance?**
Yes. Booking ahead guarantees a hotel that can register you and keeps your room at busy times; there is nothing to gain by waiting until you arrive. Paying online in advance also avoids card machines that front-desk staff rarely use for foreign cards.
