DeRucci Hotel (Chongqing Ciqikou Metro Station Store)

Thanks a lot to the staff, they were very helpful and kind. Location is good, metro station is in 10mins from the hotel. View from my room was not so pleasant - it was construction. Also hotel was next to the subway line and sometimes I heard the train. It was interesting to live in the smart-room, but it is unavailable in English unfortunately.

For such a beautiful hotel, it was just okay service. Nothing exceptional. The room we got is right beside a road that is noisy even at night from some construction. For a hotel that promotes sleep, they gave us a lousy pillow that is not the one they displayed outside. And the staff couldn’t have the brain to put us at a quieter place. They don’t greet you with a smile too. The AC is centralised , so we have to follow the preference of the local/hotel. The room was warm for us but we can’t change the temperature. It wasn’t a comfortable stay. It’s not necessary to stay here I guess.

This hotel conveniently located right beside the entrance of Ciqikou, with the hotel visible from the subway. However, there's no direct walkway to the hotel, and there was a lot of construction during our visit. This made it challenging to bring our luggage as we had to navigate many stairs (the main entrance is not on the first floor). Although there is an elevator, you still need to go through a lot of stairs. Despite these initial challenges, the room was very clean, and the service was excellent. The hotel offers useful amenities, including laundry and dryer facilities and complimentary water bottles. The highlight of our stay was Xiao Du, an AI room control system similar to Alexa. It was incredibly fun to interact with and added a unique touch to our experience. Overall, the hotel's proximity to Ciqikou and the quality of the service and facilities made for a pleasant stay, even with the minor inconveniences. I would recommend this hotel for anyone visiting the area, especially once the construction around the area is complete.
