Kempinski Hotel Suzhou
Having stayed at Kempinski in Shanghai before, I knew exactly what to expect—and this trip completely exceeded it. Visiting Suzhou during New Year’s, I chose Kempinski as my top pick, and it was absolutely the right decision. Arriving by car was super convenient, with seamless parking access. The grand lobby immediately impressed me—soaring ceilings adorned with festive holiday decor created an instant magical vibe. To my delight, I was upgraded to a deluxe suite on New Year’s Day, which felt like a dream gift. Special thanks to the front desk team, especially Xiao Lu, for such a thoughtful touch. Stepping into the room, my partner couldn’t stop saying ‘wow’—the panoramic view of Jinji Lake flooded the space with natural light, while the warm interior made it feel cozy and luxurious. The pool is perfect for both adults and kids, with great facilities and a relaxing atmosphere. And the private walkway? A photographer’s paradise—endless opportunities for stunning shots. From start to finish, every detail felt exceptional. This wasn’t just a stay—it was an unforgettable experience. Definitely coming back.
Suzhou Pingjiang Road Yihe Songmaoju (Pingjiang Road Historic Street Shop)
This stay absolutely exceeded all expectations—every single detail made the experience feel special and genuinely welcoming. From check-in to checkout, everything was smooth and thoughtful. The room was immaculately clean and spacious, with a well-designed bathroom that offered plenty of room even when traveling with a toddler. The smart toilet was a real game-changer for families, and having a Dyson in the room added that extra touch of luxury and comfort. The staff were incredibly attentive and professional—especially the front desk team and our personal host. When they learned we were traveling with a young child, they proactively arranged a ground-floor room, which made life so much easier without needing to navigate stairs. Communication via WeChat was fast and efficient; any request was handled promptly and with care. Daily fresh fruit deliveries and evening sweet soup created a homey, nurturing atmosphere. What truly touched us was how the hotel remembered our child’s birthday and surprised us with a custom cake—such a heartfelt gesture that brought tears to our eyes. Breakfast was a semi-self-service style, and we received a menu the night before to choose from, making it convenient and personalized. Overall, the combination of high-quality amenities, spotless environment, and genuine hospitality—especially the family-friendly touches—made this one of the most memorable stays we’ve ever had. I’d highly recommend this property to other families and will definitely be returning soon.
Le Xuan Hotel
My stay at Le Xuan Hotel was truly excellent. The location is unbeatable—just steps away from the Jinji Lake Musical Fountain, with the iconic Oriental Gate (the "Big Pants") right across the street. It’s perfect for photos and evening strolls. I did notice the fountain only operates on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, so next time I’ll definitely plan my visit around those days to catch the show. One highlight I didn’t expect was the local Suzhou noodle restaurant just downstairs—authentic flavors, fresh ingredients, and very reasonably priced. It added a real local touch to the experience. The room was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, and the staff were helpful and friendly. Whether you're here for sightseeing or business travel, this hotel offers great value and convenience. Highly recommend it for anyone looking for a solid stay in Suzhou’s central area.
ANSHE HOTEL
Stayed at Anshe Hotel during my recent trip to Suzhou and was truly impressed—this place opened in May 2024 and feels brand new with smart, modern touches throughout. The facial recognition check-in is a game-changer: no key cards needed, just walk in and go. The room was spotless, fresh, and completely free of any unpleasant odors—really made me feel comfortable right away. One highlight? The pillow options: I got to choose between the classic buckwheat pillow and a memory foam zero-pressure pillow. The latter was incredible—so supportive and cozy, I slept better than I have in months. The staff were incredibly helpful too, offering personalized local tips on where to eat and what to see around the historic area. From arrival to checkout, everything felt seamless and welcoming. Definitely going to recommend this hotel to friends—and I’ll be back for my next visit to Suzhou.

My mom and I came to Suzhou for a national security match, and we stayed at Mechar Hotel—what an amazing experience! The hotel is literally right outside the metro station, making arrival super convenient. It's just a short walk from Dongfang Gate and Jinji Lake, which is absolutely stunning—especially with the free water bus service 🚌. If we had more time, we’d definitely stay longer to enjoy everything. The location is perfect for exploring other attractions via subway, though it’s a bit far from Suzhou North Railway Station—so I’d recommend arriving at Suzhou Station instead. The front desk staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, and they even gave us little snacks when checking out 😊. Super thoughtful! We’ll definitely come back if we visit Suzhou again. Highly recommended!

The staff were incredibly friendly and responsive, making communication easy and comfortable throughout my visit. The room itself wasn’t overly fancy, but it was cozy, clean, and well-appointed with a smart toilet that made everything more convenient. I especially appreciated how quiet it was despite being right in the heart of Pingjiang Road—the bustling tourist crowds were nowhere to be heard, yet it was still super walkable to all major attractions. Both metro stations were just a short stroll away, which made getting around the city effortless. There’s also a cute little cat who lives on-site; she’s sweet and always happy to say hi. And the coffee? Fantastic—perfect for a morning pick-me-up. The recommended local eats were spot-on too. My only minor note is that the room soundproofing isn’t perfect—some noise from adjacent rooms came through—but honestly, that didn’t ruin the overall stay. This place truly offers a peaceful retreat with great value, and I’d definitely come back.
