"Nice chatting with you" in Chinese is 和你聊天很开心 (Hé nǐ liáo tiān hěn kāi xīn).

When to use it
Chinese culture doesn't have as strong a convention of explicitly saying 'nice chatting' when parting; it can sound a bit formal or Western-influenced. In casual settings, people more often just say 下次聊 ('talk next time') or 先走了,拜拜. If you do want to express it, 和你聊天很开心 is warm and natural. Use 跟 (gēn) instead of 和 (hé) for a more northern/casual feel. For business contexts, 很高兴和您交流 (jiāo liú, 'exchange/communicate') sounds more professional than 聊天 (chat). The 您 (nín) formal 'you' is important with clients, elders, or in first meetings.
