The only hotel I've stayed at three times for business trips in Chengdu!

🏨Hotel Name: Waldorf Astoria Chengdu 📍Location: Located near Chengdu Twin Towers and Jiaozi Park, with YinTai Mall right downstairs. Adjacent to Jiaozi Park, it offers convenient transportation, abundant dining options, and a Hema supermarket. Compared to downtown hotels, it's closer to the airport. Some rooms offer views of the Twin Towers with good visibility. Note that it's quite a distance from Taikoo Li and prone to traffic congestion. 🏘️Room Type/Layout: - The Twin Towers view room I stayed in was on the 46th floor, the highest guest floor, covering about 50+ square meters. - Features an independent toilet room and dual vanity sinks to minimize disturbance. The separate walk-in closet and dressing table are signature Waldorf features. - The bathroom has a strong design aesthetic and is well-maintained, though the bathtub is slightly small. 🛌Amenities/Facilities: - The hotel embodies Waldorf's classic "old money" style with wood-dominated decor. - The lobby, restaurants, and pool are on the top floors, with guest rooms below. No executive lounge. - Poolside drinking water requires self-service with paper cups from a dispenser. 🧹Soundproofing/Cleanliness: Generally meets basic accommodation needs. 🍽️Dining Experience: - Breakfast hours are busy, with 30 minutes shorter service time than The Ritz-Carlton. Offers à la carte items like Eggs Benedict and Wagyu beef, though the latter had long wait times and occasional order duplication. - Chinese restaurant staff could improve their menu knowledge. 💁Service Level: - Lobby concierge lacks proactive service. Overall service details need enhancement, like simple anniversary decorations and welcome fruits provided only upon request. - The lobby manager responded promptly to issues raised. 💗Other Tips: - The hotel gifts WA-branded panda souvenirs with commemorative value. - Compared to other Chengdu five-star hotels, The Ritz-Carlton offered better value during this stay. Ratings: - Location: 8/10 - Room Design: 6/10 - Room Space: 7/10 - Room View: 9/10 - Hotel Environment: 8/10 - Service Attitude: 4/10 - Detail Experience: 3/10 - Breakfast: 3/10 - Overall: 6/10 - Recommendation: 5/10 Summary: Waldorf Astoria Chengdu stands out for its views and convenient surroundings, but has room for improvement in service details and facility maintenance. It delivers average overall performance, suitable for travelers prioritizing views. Those valuing comprehensive service experience may want to compare options.
