Ascott Hotels in Chengdu

Whenever I travel to a city, if there's an Ascott property (Ascott, Somerset, or Citadines), it's always my first choice; they consistently feel like a home away from home. The rooms are spacious and come equipped with a fully functional kitchen and a washing machine – perfect if you prefer to cook a simple meal or order takeout instead of dining out. Having a washing machine also significantly adds to the comfort of the trip. Both housekeeping and the front desk staff are incredibly responsive and provide excellent service. During my four-day stay, the breakfast spread was impressive. Beyond the usual staples like bread, salads, and fruits, the hot dishes rarely repeated, offering something fresh and new each morning. We were also fortunate enough to experience a Southeast Asian Food Festival during our visit, which meant delicious Southeast Asian-inspired dishes and desserts were available every day. Ascott properties are typically co-located with shopping malls, and this one in Chengdu, part of Raffles City, is no exception. It's incredibly convenient with a Hema Fresh supermarket located in the basement, making it easy to pick up fruits, drinks, and other daily necessities. With direct access to the subway station right outside, transportation is incredibly convenient. Additionally, Yulin Road, just a block away, is fantastic for its food scene and a pleasant area to explore. And I highly recommend 'San Que Yi' restaurant located behind the hotel – their food is absolutely delicious and it's a must-visit for me every time I'm in town!

On this trip with friends, we had a layover in Chengdu and chose Ascott Qinhuang primarily for its excellent location – the subway offers direct access to both Shuangliu and Tianfu airports, making it incredibly convenient. Taxis are also readily available for trips into the city center. Overall, the hotel's facilities and interiors are excellent, offering great value for money. Food delivery is available directly to your room door, and the housekeeping staff kept everything very clean. Among all the Ascott properties I've stayed at, this one stands out with the best facilities and room size. The only minor drawback was that, perhaps due to the room's large size, some corners had a bit of dust (which wasn't ideal for someone with a dust allergy like me). It's also possible that our room hadn't been occupied for a while. All in all, it's a very minor and understandable issue. I would definitely choose this hotel again on my next visit!
