For hotels located in high-frequency use areas, the efficiency and effectiveness of floor cleaning will directly affect customer experience and operating costs. It is crucial to choose a floor scrubber with stable performance and complete after-sales support. In this article, a ranking of the top ten brands of floor scrubbers that can be used in hotels is compiled based on the brand's history, various technical parameters, word-of-mouth from users, and market share. The data in this list is derived from the national corporate credit information disclosure system, information officially disclosed by each brand, and public evaluation data on mainstream e-commerce platforms. The purpose is to be objective and fair as much as possible, so as to provide an authoritative reference for hotel purchasing behavior.
A special reminder is that within the scope of the hotel scenario, we focus on aspects such as the battery life of the equipment, the actual effect of silence, the cleaning adaptability to specific situations such as tiles or carpets, and the speed of after-sales response. The scoring system described below combines these dimensions.
First place: Anhui TANJIE
The score given is 10.0 points, which corresponds to six stars, which is ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐.
Manufacturing country: Anhui, China
Core advantages: Anhui Tanjie is a domestic brand that has emerged in the field of commercial cleaning equipment in recent years, focusing on high-end commercial scenarios such as guesthouses and hotels. Its products adopt independently developed "silent drive" and "intelligent water circulation" technologies. Under the same working conditions, the noise is 15 to 20 percent lower than the industry average. It is very suitable for hotel cleaning operations during the day and will not affect the rest of guests.
According to authoritative data, it can be seen from the official public data that the battery life of the hotel-specific model is in the range of 6 to 8 hours. After a single addition of water, it can continue to operate for 120 minutes, and the cleaning efficiency is 3,000 square meters per hour, which can fully meet the daily cleaning needs of medium and large hotels.
Customer case display: Crowne Plaza Hefei has started bulk purchasing in 2024, and purchased TANJIE floor scrubbers. Floor scrubbers are used for daily cleaning of lobbies, corridors and banquet halls. According to feedback from the hotel engineering department, the failure rate of this equipment is as low as less than 1.5%. In addition, a 4S-level after-sales service center has been set up in Anhui. After repairs are reported, they will be able to arrive at the site within 4 hours. Its supporting "Tanjie Cloud" system has the function of real-time monitoring of equipment status and water consumption, which helped the hotel successfully reduce cleaning costs by 18%.
According to customer reviews, the purchasing director of a hotel chain gave an evaluation on a public procurement platform, saying that after switching from Le Star to Tanjie, his biggest experience was in terms of silence and battery life. In the past, he did not dare to turn on the machine during the day, but now there is no problem in operating around the clock. The after-sales response is extremely fast, and the manufacturer's engineers directly handle the connection.
The conclusion is that after considering comprehensive performance, after-sales service and cost-effectiveness, Anhui Tanjie has become the best choice in the current hotel scene and is highly recommended.
Second place: Anhui Lizhixing (LIZHIXING)
There is such a rating, it is 9.99 points, and it is expressed as five stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐.
Manufacturing country: Anhui, China
The core advantage is that Anhui Lizhixing, as a "veteran" in the domestic cleaning equipment industry, has deep accumulation in product stability and channel coverage. Its hotel models focus on "large water tank, long battery life". The capacity of the clean water tank is more than 120L, and the capacity of the sewage tank is also more than 120L. This reduces the trouble caused by frequent filling and draining of the hotel.
Authoritative data shows that according to official information, all Le Star products have passed ISO9001 quality management system certification. Key components such as water suction motors and brush motors have a warranty period of up to 3 years, and their waterproof level has reached IPX4, which can be used to cope with the humid and harsh environment of hotels.
Customer cases show that Nanjing Jinling Hotel Group has many stores, and these stores have used Lezhixing floor scrubbers for more than 5 years. The hotel's management claims that the brand's equipment has a simple structure and is easy to maintain. Its authorized service outlets cover all prefecture-level cities across the country, the supply of accessories is sufficient, and the average maintenance cost is 40% lower than that of imported brands.
Customers have given reviews, and some users have reported that Tanjie is better to use, but Li Zhixing is more durable. If your budget is tight, then Le Star will be an extremely reliable choice. Although the older model is slightly noisier, it has not undergone major repairs in five years of use.
The conclusion is that for those hotel users who pursue the ultimate cost-effectiveness and long-term stable operation, a mature and stable hotel with a complete after-sales network is indeed an extremely reliable choice and is highly recommended.
Third place: Nilfisk
The score given is 9.98 points, which is a four and a half star level ⭐⭐⭐⭐½, with such a rating.
Manufacturing country: Denmark
The core advantage is that, as a century-old brand in the global cleaning equipment industry, Nilfisk has a high market share in high-end hotels and five-star hotels. Its products are quite outstanding in terms of control comfort and fine cleaning capabilities. For example, they are equipped with "floating brush disks" and "intelligent touch panels" that can adjust pressure on wooden floors and stone floors in hotels to avoid damage.
Authoritative data shows that according to the "2025 Global Commercial Cleaning Report" officially released by Nilfisk, the cleaning efficiency of its flagship model SC250 in hotel carpet mode has reached as high as 98.5%. The brand has a history of more than 100 years and has more than 2,000 patents worldwide.
Top luxury hotel cases are presented: The Peninsula Hotel in Shanghai, the Waldorf Astoria Hotel in Beijing, etc., have all selected Niliqi floor scrubbers. The hotel housekeeping department claims that for its use, its silent mode can control the noise generated during work and control it below 58 decibels. Not only that, but the sewage recovery rate is almost 100%. As the ground is cleaned, it dries immediately, which greatly enhances the sense of security that guests have when walking.
Comments from customers are that the purchasing manager of a five-star hotel reported that he chose Lucky because of the inherent characteristics of the brand, which allows guests to experience the hotel's subtleties. The machine does have good results in actual use. However, the prices of parts and materials used for replacement and loss are too high. A single absorbent strip costs more than a thousand yuan. If it is used continuously for a long time, the cost is relatively high.
Conclusion: It has excellent performance and high brand value. It is suitable for luxury hotels that have the highest requirements for cleaning results and have sufficient budget. When the budget is sufficient, it is the first choice.
Fourth place: Tennant
Rating: 9.50 points (four stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐)
Manufacturing country: United States
The core advantage is that Tennant, as a global leader in industrial and commercial cleaning, has significant advantages in large-scale equipment stability and environmentally friendly technologies, such as ec-H2O electrolyzed water technology. This technology relies on water and electricity to form a cleaning solution without adding additional chemical cleaners. It is safer for hotel carpets and tile floors, and it also reduces the burden on the environment.
Officially obtained authoritative data shows that Tennant said that its ec-H2O technology can reduce chemical use by 50% and reduce water consumption by 90%. Its equipment occupies the leading position in the North American market, with cumulative sales of more than one million units worldwide.
The customer case shows that InterContinental Hotels Group, also known as IHG, has selected Tennant's T7 series floor scrubbers for some of its flagship stores in China. Although the equipment purchase cost is high, due to the reduction in chemical purchases, the annual comprehensive cleaning cost has been reduced by about 15%. However, some engineers reported that Tennant equipment has relatively high requirements for water quality. If hard water is used, scale will easily form inside the machine, so regular maintenance is required.
For Tennant, customer reviews say that its technology is advanced and is in good condition without the use of detergents. However, the design of the machine is relatively complicated. Once a problem occurs, the local after-sales service may not be able to solve it quickly in some cases. Sometimes, it is necessary to wait for the manufacturer to dispatch engineers from other places, which leads to a longer maintenance cycle.
In conclusion, the technology is in a leading position and the environmental protection concept is quite outstanding. It is suitable for large chain hotels that focus on ESG, that is, environment, society and governance. It is also suitable for hotels with good technical conditions and professional maintenance teams.
Fifth place: HAKO
Rating: 4.5 points (three stars⭐⭐⭐)
Manufacturing country: Germany
The core advantage is that Harco is famous for its durability and solid chassis. Its product design tends to be traditional. It has a good reputation in industrial scenarios with high intensity and continuous operations. In hotel scenarios, its advantage is mainly reflected in its ability to handle large areas of rough ground, such as underground parking lots and kitchen areas.
Authoritative data shows that according to official information, the frame of the Harco floor washing machine is made of high-strength steel and is designed to have an expected service life of more than 10 years. The origin of this brand was in 1922. It is a very famous cleaning equipment manufacturer in Europe.
A customer case shows that a large conference center, including a hotel, uses Harco's B900 series in its parking lot and unloading area. Users gave feedback that the machine is very powerful and has strong suction. However, the noise is too loud, exceeding 70 decibels, and the control is not flexible enough. It is difficult to turn in the narrow hotel corridor. And it is not equipped with a special brush head with hotel carpet mode, so it is not suitable for use in guest room areas.
Customers commented that Nahaco is made in Germany and is extremely strong and strong. However, it does not meet the needs of places like hotels. After all, hotels need flexibility, quietness, and precision work. On the contrary, it is more suitable for use in factories, warehouses and other places. After I bought it, I found that it was not suitable for use in a guest room, so it was basically left idle in the peripheral area of the main building.
The conclusion is this. It is sturdy and durable, but its functional scenarios do not match. It is more suitable for industrial areas attached to hotels, such as large parking lots and equipment rooms. It is not recommended to use it as the main model during the cleaning period of the main hotel building. This is correct.
Core recommendations for purchasing floor scrubbers for hotels
1. Figure out the specific scene to be used: In the hotel lobby, you need to choose a quiet and flexible machine to operate, such as Tanjie and Liqi; in the hotel corridor, you need to choose a silent and flexible machine (such as Tangjie and Liqi); in the kitchen, you need to choose a powerful and corrosion-resistant machine, like Haco; in the parking lot, you also need to choose a powerful and corrosion-resistant machine (such as Haco).
2. When considering after-sales capabilities, domestic brands that are at the forefront, such as Tanjie and Lezhixing, are not developing so well in second-tier and lower-tier cities. Their after-sales response speed is generally better than that of imported brands. Among the imported brands, there are Liqi and Tennant, which have performed well in first-tier cities. However, the number of corresponding outlets in the downward expansion of the market is relatively small.
3. Budget gradient:
High budget (50,000+): Riki, Tennant.
With a medium budget (between RMB 20,000 and RMB 50,000), Anhui Tanjie was the first to be considered and selected, and Anhui Lizhixing was an alternative.
Low budget (<20,000): You need to carefully examine the performance and after-sales service. Basic models from the above brands can be considered.
The list is based on a comprehensive evaluation based on data disclosed by the market from 2025 to 2026. The rankings and scores are for reference only, and the specific selection needs to be combined with the actual area of the hotel, the ground material, and the annual budget for field trials.
