HanTing Hotel (Huai'an Zhou Enlai Former Residence) is a budget hotel at No.88 Xiangyu Avenue Aouth, Huai'an District, Huai'an, Jiangsu, in the Huai'an District side of the city, the historic heart of Huai'an around Hexia Ancient Town, Jiangsu province, China. Hexia Ancient Town is a restored canal-side quarter of Ming and Qing era lanes, merchant courtyards and salt-trade mansions, and it sits close to the birthplace of Premier Zhou Enlai and to the Zhou Enlai Memorial Hall, the city's most visited sites. The area is also tied to Wu Cheng'en, author of Journey to the West, so many visitors in Jiangsu province combine the memorial hall, the former residences and the ancient town in a single day on foot or by short taxi ride.
Opened in 2020 on Xiangyu Avenue South, the hotel is one of the few in its class that lists pet-friendly rooms, alongside buffet breakfast and free luggage storage. The local-language name is 汉庭酒店(淮安周恩来故居店), which is useful when showing a taxi driver the destination.

Listed amenities include pet friendly, buffet breakfast, free parking, free luggage storage, laundry, non-smoking floors and free wifi in rooms. These details come from public listings and can vary by floor and building, so guests with specific needs should check before arrival.
For dining, a buffet breakfast is listed among the amenities. Huai'an is known for Huaiyang cuisine, so many guests also eat at nearby local restaurants, where soft-pocket eel, crayfish dishes and braised pork meatballs are common orders. No pool or spa is listed, so leisure facilities are limited to the in-room and common-area amenities.
Service follows the chain-hotel pattern of fast check-in, clean standardised rooms and limited on-site dining, which suits short stays and independent travellers. Pricing is described on the listing as: Typically ¥130-230 (~$18-32) per night; check dates, not a quoted rate.
