Hotel Dengan Bar di Jiangsu, China

This was my first time staying at such a high-tech hotel, and I was really impressed! The hotel environment is great, and it's just 30 meters from Lindun Road subway station. About 100 meters west, you'll find the century-old Dalang Bridge Tangzhou (sugar porridge) shop, a non-heritage site. It's also super convenient to walk to attractions like Pingjiang Road and Guanqian Street. The front desk staff was incredibly attentive and thoughtful. Plus, it offers great value for money. Highly recommend!

When I visited Wuxi for Chinese New Year, I stayed at the Hyatt and was very impressed by its location, facilities, and Chinese restaurant. So, when I brought my parents to Wuxi this time, I chose it again. Even though it's now rebranded as Suning Galaxy, the service is still excellent. I especially want to thank our concierge, Gessia. She contacted me on WeChat a day in advance to understand my request for a quiet room with an extra bed. When we checked in the next day, the extra bed was already set up, and she thoughtfully prepared all the in-room amenities, along with welcome fruits and an additional breakfast. Throughout our stay, Gessia was incredibly responsive and efficient via WeChat whenever we had any questions or needs, which was very reassuring. Every staff member at the hotel was smiling, greeted us proactively, and spoke softly, making us feel very comfortable.

Business trip to Xuzhou with foreign colleagues, stayed in Hyatt, reception is very professional and kind, hotel has fantastic view, Breakfast was very good, the chefs made lots of fresh food (they even made homemade “油条”, looks tempting). Services is good, fresh food, coffee can be delivered to your table.

Everything was top tier. From the check-in where I was upgraded to a river view room, the clean, spacious and inviting room to the service and superb breakfast. The view from the restaurant was amazing. This was my pre birthday trip and the Hyatt made it so special. I even got a slice to birthday cake. The lady at the front desk who checked me in spoke really good English and was so kind and caring and she’s also a Gemini 😁🎉 I would 100% recommend and come back here.

After reading the reviews, I booked the lowest-priced room at this highly-rated hotel. The front desk service was excellent and very attentive, so I just had to leave a review. The room was small but exquisite, with everything you could need, and the cleanliness was impeccable. The 6th-floor lobby environment is especially fantastic, very well-designed, and the terrace is super comfortable. The value for money is exceptional. It's only two subway stops from the train station, located in a quiet part of the old town but still vibrant. The white walls and black tiles give it a typical Jiangnan water town style. The hotel has all sorts of facilities, and you can find food, drinks, and entertainment right outside the door, no need for a taxi. You could easily spend two days just exploring the nearby area, and for places further afield, there's the subway. The whole room is smart-enabled. I originally wanted to stay another night, but something came up unexpectedly. I'll definitely be back next time! 😊

Good location as it was near many eateries. Excellent service from the staff who went above and beyond the norm for the customers. Unfortunately, we had cpme for the fruits we saw in the pictures and had read about in the review only to find out that there were no fruits at all. The fruits were only provided on the first day of opening. Fortunately, there are a number of fruit stalls within 5-8mins walking distance nearby. We also found our family queen room to be a bit too simple as it lacked a sofa. Kudos to the team for bringing up another few chairs so we could have a place to sit. You can also borrow a wheelchair if you need one, and you can bring it out of the hotel as well. The beds were a bit on the medium /less firm side. I would have preferred a firmer bed but I understand this is probably to cater to the more international crowd. Breakfast was also a bit too simple, both in variety and taste. But the hot soy milk was good. We didn't eat much as well. Fortunately there were many eateries nearby so it was not a big issue. Just a suggestion, this place would have been perfect for many travellers if they offered 4 single beds instead of 2 big beds. I look forward to coming back to stay again if can consider offering 4 single beds instead of 2 big beds.

The Crowne Plaza Suzhou is ideally located on the west bank of Jinji Lake, south of Modern Avenue, just across the street from landmarks like the Gate of the Orient and Suzhou Center Plaza, and right next to the Musical Fountain Square. Its unique cruise ship design is a real eye-catcher. From the east bank of Jinji Lake, you can see the 'Big Underpants' (Gate of the Orient) and the 'cruise ship' (Crowne Plaza) in the same frame, especially dazzling at night with all the lights. The hotel's service truly reflects the high standards of the IHG group: The night before check-in, a hotel representative called to confirm our reservation. Upon learning that our party included two seniors and one child, they specially noted our requests for early check-in and a twin room at the front desk and tried their best to accommodate them. Upon arrival, the hotel upgraded us to an Executive Room, which was very spacious. The two single beds, in particular, were wide enough for one adult and one child to comfortably share a bed without feeling cramped. The service throughout our stay was incredibly warm and attentive. The bellhop proactively helped with our luggage, and after checking in, the front desk staff kindly escorted us to the elevators. Learning that we had a boy with us, they even arranged for housekeeping to deliver a pair of children's slippers. The breakfast buffet was a definite highlight. The dining environment at Saint Saloon Western Restaurant was very bright and comfortable, and we were even able to sit at the 'bow' of the ship, enjoying the beautiful views of Jinji Lake while we ate. Guests also enjoy complimentary parking. After registering our license plate number at the front desk, driving in and out of the hotel multiple times was very smooth. Whether for a family vacation or a business trip to Suzhou, the Crowne Plaza Suzhou is an excellent choice.

The Hanamura Ryokan by Slender West Lake is located near the south gate of the Slender West Lake Scenic Area, about a 5-minute walk from the attraction. There are plenty of restaurants, foot massage parlors, and traditional scrubbing baths nearby. The front desk staff were warm and attentive, proactively helping with luggage to the room and even sending a robot with a bedtime dessert.

When I visited Nanjing, I didn't book a hotel in advance, thinking I'd find one as I went. After exiting Zhangfuyuan subway station and grabbing some food at Mingwacheng Snack Street, I stumbled upon this hotel. It was very noticeable from the street and looked pretty good. I went in to inquire at the front desk, which was quite unique – two stool-like tables. The hotel seemed quite new. A male staff member took me to see a room first. I had over 8000 points, which saved me over 80 yuan, and the upgraded room was quite spacious, clean, and tidy. It had a smart toilet and a semi-smart room system. The bedding was clean and felt nice to the touch 👍🏻. I added them on WeChat, and they sent me the Wi-Fi password and gave me free breakfast. However, I didn't like the female staff member during check-out; I felt pressured to leave a good review, she insisted I post it at 2 PM, which was ridiculous 😵💫. Writing reviews is my habit, not a tool for you to coerce me. Management, please pay attention to staff training; forced good reviews don't look good. So, I have to deduct one point from the service score. Otherwise, I was very satisfied. I didn't extend my stay on the second day because it was too expensive and I couldn't afford it, not because I didn't like staying there. Anyway, that's it.

Facilities: Average Cleanliness: Average. I understand not being able to open windows on the 71st floor, but the room was so dry my nose bled and my throat hurt, which was very uncomfortable. They really should add a humidifier. Because it was so dry, any movement in the room stirred up a lot of dust. This isn't a problem with the cleaning staff, but rather the extreme dryness of the room. Environment: The view outside the window is indeed nice, very impressive. Service: Average 1. We booked a room type that should have been around the 66th floor, but we were upgraded to the 71st floor, which I really appreciate. 2. I booked the room through Ctrip, and Ctrip indicated that my credit was sufficient and no deposit was needed. However, at check-in, I was still required to pay an additional 1111 as a deposit, which contradicted what Ctrip said. I completely understand paying a deposit, but why was it 1111, then became 1110.98? 3. When booking, it showed complimentary welcome fruit, but we didn't receive any. I always stay in five-star hotels when traveling, and welcome fruit is always placed directly in the room; I've never had to ask for it like this. And I only remembered and asked about it on the second night, and then they told me I had to go pick it up myself. Summary: The outdoor scenery is beautiful, but the night view has too much reflection on the glass to get a good photo (I used a DJI, and even post-processing couldn't remove it). The third picture is a daytime shot from the 71st floor. Honestly, you can get great photos from the 45th floor (second video), so booking a standard room is sufficient. Especially after seeing the comparison (first video).
