My boyfriend really understands the commitment to stick with this budget-friendly hotel in Suzhou in the future

During the Spring Festival, we visited Dongshan and stayed at the Dongshan State Guesthouse, which was brimming with festive atmosphere and very popular. We checked in at the Diecui Building on the west side, and as expected from a well-established five-star state guesthouse, the staff's service attitude was excellent. Everything from parking, reception, check-in, to luggage handling was on point. They even gave a New Year's gift to the children. The hotel lobby has a Starbucks, which is very friendly for a coffee addict like me. The room was a lake view room in the main building on the east side, which was a quieter area. The buffet breakfast was also not noisy. On the day of check-in, we also had Suzhou-style noodles, which were average in taste. The advantage lies in the environment, service, and cost-effectiveness. Those who don't like staying in guesthouses can choose Dongshan Guesthouse ❤Recommended reasons: ✅Great location! It's only a five-minute walk to the Humble Administrator's Garden, and a taxi from Suzhou Station is just the starting price to the hotel! It's also close to Pingjiang Road, Lion Grove, and a seven-minute stroll to the subway station, making it convenient to reach any scenic spot ✅The room can accommodate four suitcases🧳, the space is really big! The bedding deserves praise👍🏻. My family with a cleanliness obsession👪 loves it! The soundproofing is 100%, the cleaning is very timely, the bathroom has a wet and dry separation, there's a disposable toilet seat cover, and watching TV on a big screen is so cool~ ✅The cost-performance ratio is very high, the front desk lady was very considerate, and upgraded our room for free❗ The hotel's cat is very friendly🐱. They offer laundry and ironing services, and you can also get a parking fee reimbursement and free luggage storage❗🧳🆓

Shangri-La Hotel, Suzhou Yuanqu

Looking for a hotel where you can truly MOMENT and enjoy half a day in Suzhou? Suzhou Park Shangri-La Hotel is definitely a high score. The hotel is right by Jinji Lake, and it's super convenient to get off the subway. Whether you want to walk around the new shopping mall by the lake, or enjoy a bath gel bubble bath at night! Last time I stayed, I sat in the oversized bathtub to relax and take a bath, looking out the window at the splendid city night view, and simply enjoyed it so much that I didn’t want to leave! The location of the hotel is really great, 99 Si'an Street, Covenant Plaza, whether by subway (nearby there is a station) or car to Suzhou's popular attractions are very convenient, the surrounding business district super many choices - eating, shopping, relaxing walk is convenient. Golden Chicken Lake, Everyday Life, and Suzhou Center are all within walking distance. If you have enough time, you can also explore the ancient city of Suzhou at the Humble Administrator's Garden and the Scholar's Museum the next day. The room really impressed me. First of all, the bed is strong and comfortable, the quality of the bed is super high, soundproofing is good enough, the room is large and clean, the decoration is modern and simple, with large glass windows, before going to bed looking at the night view of Suzhou, feel very quiet and comfortable. There is a large bathtub where you can take a bath, and you won't be disturbed if you leave it overnight. The hygiene was done very cleanly, although individual guests said there was room for improvement, but I was satisfied with my stay. The gym has a full set of facilities, and there are many choices for breakfast - both Chinese and Western, perfect for those of you who know how to eat. Service is one of the biggest selling points here. The hotel front desk and customer relations managers (such as Judy, Cathy, Yvonne) are very attentive, calling in advance to ask you about your arrival time, arranging what room type you want and preparing courteous details. Delicate enough that even the type of pillow you want, special needs will help you get it done, the focus is on heart and professionalism, which feels very humane. The overall environment of the hotel is elegant, the public spaces are very quiet, and the design is simple and generous. Some guests may suggest minor improvements to hygiene and service details, but as long as any problems are mentioned immediately, the hotel will deal with them immediately. If you are visiting Suzhou looking for a place where you can truly relax, balancing transportation, views, service and room quality, Suzhou Park Shangri-La Hotel will not disappoint you. Trip tip: If you are approaching the exhibition or a holiday, it is recommended to book early, choose a high-rise room type to see the night view will be more beautiful! Don’t miss the nearby lakeside trails and E-Mart Life for a slow night walk or morning exercise. #Suzhou Hotel Recommendation #ShangriLa Experience #Golden Chicken Lake Night View #Quality Stay #Suzhou Free Trip #High Floor View #Bathtub Photo #ShangriLaSuzhou #Travel Tips
