Alley Sunshine Hostel (Suzhou Zhuozhengyuan Pingjiang Road) Reviews

We stayed here for 2 nights during our visit to SuZhou. It was absolutely beautiful and clean. Location is fabulous, just at the entrance of PingJiang Road. Highly recommended to anyone who wants to explore SuZhou!

The hostel is located just inside Pingjiang Road. The 管家 is nice and friendly. She helped me carry my luggage up and down and also outside while I was waiting for a DiDi even it was heavy rain.

My stay at Alley Sunshine Hostel was absolutely delightful! The hostel itself is cozy, clean, and full of character, tucked away in a quiet yet convenient location. But what truly made the experience stand out was the amazing landlady. She was incredibly welcoming and helpful, offering personalized tips that made exploring Suzhou so much more enjoyable. From the best times to visit the classical gardens, to delicious local eateries and scenic canal walks, every recommendation she gave was perfect. Her knowledge of the area and genuine care made me feel more like a guest in a friend’s home than just a traveler passing through. If you're coming to Suzhou and want more than just a place to sleep — a place with heart and great local insight — Alley Sunshine Hostel is the one. Highly recommended!

I absolutely loved my stay here. The hotel has a wonderfully cozy atmosphere, and the architecture feels authentic and full of character. The view from the room was breathtaking — a perfect place to relax and take it all in. A special thanks to the lady at the front desk who helped me check in — she was incredibly kind, patient, and helpful, which made the whole experience even more welcoming. Highly recommend this place if you’re looking for charm, comfort, and warm hospitality.

Spot on location. Need make sure you had contacted owner as the location is quite discreet. Very convenient for families.

The rooms are very nice and clean with traditional chinese architecture. The lady responsible for the check-in is super helpful and cheesy. Definitely would go back here

The hostel owner was extremely friendly and helpful. The cleaner even helped us to move our luggages to the room. Very good location with amazing view from the room.

The Hotel locates in good location, near Pingjiang Road. The owner is super nice, help uss a lott

The room perfectly mixes old-world Suzhou style with modern comforts: cozy beds, sleek bathrooms, and thoughtful touches. The hostess was lovely, offering tips on nearby Pingjiang Road and serving delicious *qingtuan* (sweet rice cakes). I must say that this is a perfect accommodation for families or solo travelers!

The place is very convenient and clean. The owner is helpful and friendly . Would be staying here again if I come to Suzhou again. There slippers are changed everyday.

Friendly and helpful host. Accommodate to my request when I need a wine opener. Nice room too.

The host is super friendly and helpful. The room is so warm as we travel in cold weather. We are happy with the convenient location and cozy accommodation 😊

Unbeatable view from the room! It is located at the entrance to the main tourist street, allowing easy taxi access but also access to all the stalls. Would book again!

It is on the central street. Easy to access everything, staff so nice. I will back
