I have been to Hangzhou many times. This time I accompanied my mother to Hangzhou to see tulips and cherry blossoms. Hangzhou in spring is so beautiful. However, it is difficult to get a room at the West Lake State Guesthouse during the peak tourist season. The unique and superior natural environment is incomparable. However, what impressed me most was the girl from the hotel's relations group Gro. She was gentle and considerate in her reception work, and was proactive in responding to any needs. She not only helped us book dinner at the Ziwei Hall, but also extended the check-out time so that it would perfectly connect with the return train. You can feel the sincerity from the smiles and greetings of the hotel waiters. I'm already looking forward to autumn, I want to come again~

It was my first time staying at the State Guest House. I originally booked a 2-night stay but because the stay was so smooth with my kids, I stayed an extra night. The State Guesthouse, with its history, beautiful West Lake scenery and garden design, is indeed the first choice for traveling in Hangzhou. The guest relations service was also very good. In addition, I was very satisfied with the photos taken by Xiaoyu, who was in charge of travel photography at the State Guesthouse, for me and my child. During the shooting process, Xiaoyu interacted with the child patiently and carefully reminded me of various details about the shooting postures and expressions. The temperature dropped by 20 degrees that day and I didn't prepare suitable clothes, but the photos I took in just half an hour turned out really well. Give her a thumbs up!

The concierge service is first-rate. It is very busy to send guests and pick up parcels, but the attitude is very good. The staff in Ziwei Hall and the buffet restaurant are also very enthusiastic. When they learned that it was my parents' golden wedding anniversary, they specially sent flowers, cards and cakes, and also gave me two extra days of breakfast. The gate security personnel are also very dedicated and competent. The State Guest House really provides guests with a home-like service.

服務:非常好,員工很熱情地幫我們拿行李,打總枱回覆接聽及時,回覆很快。唯一的遺憾是沒有定上紫薇廳。入住時房間沒有準備好,還給我們贈送了下午茶。 環境:就在西湖旁,庭院景色十分出彩 衞生:房間很乾凈,走廊會有點悶悶的潮濕味道,但整體不影響體驗。 設施:建築外立面比較普通,我住的3號樓沒有電梯,需要自己上樓梯到二樓。每一棟樓相隔比較遠,不想自己走的話需要和總枱叫擺渡車。

Chairman Mao Zedong drafted the first Constitution of the People’s Republic of China here. He stayed in the hotel for a grand total 27 times, giving this place special historic significance. Prominent foreign political figures and celebrities including former US President Richard Nixon and former South African President Nelson Mandela have both stayed here. The hotel has witnessed important historic events. For example, the octagonal pavilion here was where the China-US Joint Communiqué was initialed.

The hotel is elegant in style. Rooms are luxurious yet cozy with great views. The hotel is also known for hosting state dinners. For successive years Ziwei Hall has been ranked among the Top 50 Chinese Restaurants. There are sophisticated meeting facilities, yachts, concert hall, cinema, SPA as well as teahouses with distinctive local flavor.
