DoubleTree by Hilton Hotels in Chengdu

We stayed here during the Dragon Boat Festival holiday, specifically around Children's Day, bringing our child to see the national treasures (pandas). The hotel is conveniently located near the East Railway Station; a taxi ride cost just 18 RMB and took about 20 minutes. The room amenities were satisfactory, though it's certainly not a luxury five-star hotel. The front desk service was excellent, with staff readily assisting us with our luggage. For breakfast, the variety of hot Chinese dishes was limited, but the Western pastries and desserts offered a rich selection. A special shout-out to the beef noodles – they were truly delicious and highly recommended! The hotel's surroundings are brimming with dining options. You'll find popular choices like Chuanxi Bazi and classic Sichuan restaurants, plus countless local snack stalls right downstairs, offering enough variety to try something new every day for a week. What's more, Dongjiao Memory, often likened to Beijing's 798 Art Zone, is conveniently located right behind the hotel and is definitely worth a visit.

This hotel room type deserves a special shout-out. It's incredibly family-friendly. The kids' bed wasn't an afterthought at all; it was genuinely spacious and comfortable. We've stayed at so many hotels in Chengdu with our kids, and each time we've paid for an extra bed. The problem is, the quality of those additional beds was always hit-or-miss and mostly uncomfortable. The kids never wanted to sleep in them, so it was always the adults who ended up using them. This hotel's kids' bed, however, was by far the most proper and comfortable we've encountered. My child even voluntarily asked to sleep on it! As a result, our whole family had an exceptionally good night's sleep.
