I've always been wary of naked Retreats, so I've never considered their hotels. But this time, I had the opportunity to visit naked Water, and among the many resort hotels in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, I was pleasantly surprised. I'm now a fan. I won't go into detail about the facilities. The rooms are spacious, and the grounds are natural and close to the water. The atmosphere is similar to that of Alila in its early years. There are many activities in the park, both crafts and sports, so you won't be bored. The breakfast was beyond expectations. The variety wasn't particularly large, but it was very refined. All the surprises came from the service. It was obvious that every employee had been trained, and I was amazed at naked Retreats' small-scale employee training system. Before my stay, they carefully confirmed my needs. Restaurant meals can be enjoyed on the large dining table in the room, and all kitchen tools are available. The servers, concierge, room attendants, and gardeners were all very polite, courteous, and friendly, stopping their machines and proactively asking about my needs. Perhaps this is how high-end hotels should be, but there are few projects in East China that meet these standards. The only shortcomings are that most of the paths in the park are steps, which are not stroller-friendly, and public services end too early. There is no fast charging, and there are limited charging resources for electric vehicles nearby.

I would like to call it a classic of Park Hyatt in China. Different from the Park Hyatt hotels in other cities, Park Hyatt Suzhou proudly chose to independently build a "Little White Building" beside the AAAAA-level scenic spot Jinji Lake, perfectly interpreting the Jiangnan water town garden hotel. Whether it is the newly opened Four Seasons, the newly debuted Mandarin Oriental, Waldorf Astoria, or Banyan Tree, it is difficult to surpass the Park Hyatt Suzhou in design when it comes to interpreting the garden style in Suzhou. 5InterContinental Hotel Suzhou Address: No. 288 Wangdun Road Opening time: Opened in 2010, renovated in 2021 Basic room: 1000 onwards Keywords: old five-star, online level Many people would say: When did InterContinental become a top luxury hotel? I want to say: the hotel that suits you best is the "top luxury hotel". Fourteen years after its opening, InterContinental Suzhou has firmly occupied the C position in Jinji Lake. The hotel's basic facilities and services are very online, and it is also quite generous in room upgrades. An extra-large round bathtub and a whole floor-to-ceiling window overlooking the Jinji Lake. If you want to live by Jinji Lake and want a lake view room, then InterContinental Suzhou may be your first choice. Park Hyatt Suzhou naked Porto
