This hotel is an amazing value for a summer family trip! Close to the subway

The holidays are almost here! Last summer, I took my two kids to Suzhou and chose the Holiday Inn Express Suzhou Industrial Park (Suzhou Olympic Sports Center). We had an amazing stay, and I'm booking this hotel again this year! 🏨 Amazing stay The rooms are spacious and bright, with simple yet cozy decor. The beds and furniture are high quality, and the mattresses and pillows are so soft that the kids fell asleep instantly. My husband, the kids, and I all slept well. The rooms are spotless, and it felt so good to come back to them every day after playing. 💁‍♀️ Perfect service The receptionists are gentle and attentive. They not only helped us check in early, but also thoughtfully provided fruit and welcome drinks. When they found out we had kids, they made sure to recommend kid-friendly places nearby. The staff is also very responsible. When the kids accidentally left their toys at the hotel, the staff contacted us immediately and helped us take care of them. It was so heartwarming. 🚗 Super convenient location The hotel is right next to the Olympic Sports Center, and the mall is just a few steps away. There are all kinds of restaurants and snack shops, so you don't have to worry about finding food. It's also very close to the subway station, making it easy to get to nearby attractions. We went to Jinji Lake and took the subway for a few stops. The kids were so happy watching the sunset by the lake. 🌟 Must-see family activities for the summer 1️⃣ Suzhou Olympic Sports Center A 3-minute walk! Take your kids to experience the charm of the stadium. There are often family sports carnivals and soccer/basketball training camps in the summer where kids can sweat and make friends. In the evening, ride balance bikes and rollerblade in the Olympic Sports Center Square. You can even catch the fountain show. The lights are bright at night, creating a great atmosphere! 2️⃣ Jinji Lake Scenic Area Take subway Line 5 directly! Rent a family bike and ride around the lake, visit Moonlight Pier and the Gate to the Orient, and watch the sunset by the lake in the evening. The kids will scream with excitement! Boat tour: Take your kids on a boat tour to enjoy the lake view. There are also tour guides on board who explain the history of Suzhou, making it both educational and fun. 3️⃣ Suzhou Center A 10-minute walk! This is a paradise for kids: Fantasy Land: A 3,000m² indoor playground with slides, ocean balls, role-playing areas, and more! Your kids can play all day! Ice skating rink: The best choice to escape the summer heat. Kids can put on ice skates and fly on the ice, and parents can have a coffee and relax nearby. Science Exploration Hall: The interactive exhibits are super fun. Kids can operate mechanical devices and explore the mysteries of physics. 🚗 Travel tips Subway Line 5: The hotel is a few minutes' walk from the "Olympic Sports Center Station", which goes directly to Jinji Lake, Suzhou Center, and Eslite Bookstore. Super convenient! Taxi: It is recommended to take a taxi to Xietang Old Street and Egret Park, which are 10–15 mins away and cost approx. CNY 15–20. Driving: The hotel provides free parking, and parking is also convenient at nearby attractions. I highly recommend staying at the Holiday Inn Express Suzhou Industrial Park (Suzhou Olympic Sports Center). I was so satisfied! It makes traveling with kids easy and worry-free! 💖
