600m from the Subway! This Hangzhou Family-Friendly Hotel Is a Breeze for Parents!

The high-speed train from Shanghai to Hangzhou only takes an hour. This weekend, I finally fulfilled my promise to my daughter. When I was doing my research before the trip, I was immediately drawn to the location and family-friendly features of JI Hotel (Hangzhou West Lake Jiefang Road). 📍[Convenient Location for Kids: Walking Distance to West Lake and Shopping Districts] ✅After exiting from Exit D of Longxiangqiao subway station, it took a leisurely ten-minute walk to reach the hotel. My daughter counted the plane trees along the street and was pleasantly surprised to find Kuiyuan Restaurant just opposite the hotel. That evening, we enjoyed authentic Shrimp-fried Eel Noodles. ✅West Lake is within a 15-minute walk, so there's no need to take any transportation. We could just go whenever we wanted! ✅Nearby attractions also include: West Lake Music Fountain, Southern Song Dynasty Imperial Street, Wushan Square, Hefang Street, Red Wall Deshou Palace, Hangzhou Zoo, Hubin Intime, and more. ✅On the way back to the hotel, we stopped by Wulin Night Market for some snacks, perfectly combining "attractions + shopping + food" in one easy trip, making it a breeze to travel with kids. 👶[Family-Friendly Details] Upon check-in, the receptionist proactively offered children's toothbrushes and cartoon slippers. I specifically chose the "Family Suite with King-Size Bed." The 1.8-meter bed was large enough for an adult and a child, and the small tent in the room gave my daughter her own "secret base." There's also a free laundry room with a washing machine and dryer, complete with children's laundry detergent, which solved the problem of washing clothes for kids. 🍴[Dining] Every time we returned to the hotel, we would go to the lobby for complimentary tea, which was white tea brewed with red dates. It tasted quite good! The breakfast buffet offered a wide variety of options and even had special cartoon tableware. My daughter used it to fill her plate with egg tarts and waffles. I grabbed freshly ground coffee and Hangzhou-style small wontons, starting our day full of energy. When we got hungry in the evening, the hotel also provided a rich selection of late-night snacks🍵wontons, noodles, millet porridge, and preserved egg and lean meat porridge. My indecisiveness kicked in again, haha. My daughter fell in love with the noodles here. She, who is usually a picky eater, ate two bowls in one go🍜 🍰[Nearby Trendy Afternoon Tea Spots] Even with a child, I still wanted to take some beautiful photos. The receptionist enthusiastically recommended several nearby trendy cafes and bars, and I personally verified that they are very Instagrammable!
