DavidThis small hotel is located right within the Pingjiang Road scenic area. It's quite small with very few guests, so it's really quiet. However, the moment you step outside, you're in the bustling scenic area, which has a fantastic night view. You can even experience the beautiful tranquility of the street once all the crowds have dispersed. A heads-up: the hotel rooms lack USB charging ports, so remember to bring your own. The service is excellent; they'll even turn on the air conditioning in advance when they know you're arriving, ensuring you feel comfortable the moment you walk in. They also offer dining options and souvenirs, which is very convenient. Overall, it's a small place, but it perfectly encapsulates the charm and sophistication of Suzhou.

VChuhuI chose the Indigo Hotel for a relaxing weekend by Jinji Lake, and it was absolutely the right decision. Scott, from Guest Relations, proactively contacted me even before check-in and was available on WeChat throughout my stay, handling all my requests with just a message. The hotel is conveniently located right by the subway exit – just a turn after exiting Exit 2 of the Contemporary Art Museum station. The Suzhou-style cyberpunk design is incredibly cool, with arches, ornate windows, and neon lights, making every photo a masterpiece.
I booked a lake-view king room, which included breakfast. The room was 49 square meters and fully equipped with a coffee machine, refrigerator, complimentary first round of beverages, a Dyson hairdryer, and an automatic smart toilet. There was only one trash can, which felt a bit sparse. The room also had two bathrobes, though I honestly wonder if anyone actually enjoys wearing hotel bathrobes. The Dyson hairdryer and fully automatic smart toilet were definite highlights.
For breakfast, the restaurant was quite busy on the weekend. Staff guided guests to their tables and asked if they'd like coffee or black tea. The breakfast featured a special noodle station with delicious wontons and noodles. The pastry section offered a wide variety of breads, all very soft and fluffy. My appetite is a bit small, and I was full after just a bowl of wontons and one pastry. The specialty Suzhou-style pastries, in my opinion, were just okay; I think the pastry shops in the city center would offer better options.

Guest UserI've stayed at Kimpton Bamboo Grove Suzhou multiple times, and this time, booking a courtyard room still brought plenty of pleasant surprises. The room comes with its own private courtyard where I could relax, sip tea, and enjoy the breeze, completely cut off from the city's hustle and bustle. It's a truly immersive experience of the unique tranquility and comfort of a Jiangnan garden, with an incredible ambiance. The room's amenities are thoughtfully chosen and well-equipped, including a Dyson hairdryer, garment steamer, and yoga mat – making it super convenient for managing clothes or doing some morning stretches. The bedding is soft and skin-friendly, ensuring a comfortable sleep that really helps relieve travel fatigue. The hotel's service has always been top-notch, which is a major reason why I keep coming back. My butler, Cherry, provided attentive care throughout my stay, always available on WeChat to check in and respond promptly to any requests. Her service was meticulous and heartwarming. The hotel itself is designed in the style of a classical Suzhou garden, with beautiful scenery at every turn, making for a pleasant stroll. The breakfast offers a wide variety of options, and the local Suzhou specialties are very authentic. Overall, I had a very satisfying stay. The tranquil environment amidst the bustling city, coupled with the thoughtful and attentive service, makes it an excellent choice for a vacation in Suzhou. I'm already looking forward to my next visit to Bamboo Grove!

Guest UserOur trip to Suzhou was to see a concert with my child. As someone from the Northeast, I was quite excited to visit Suzhou for the first time. Staying at the Suzhou Jinji Lake L Hotel was a wise choice. I had initially shortlisted three hotels online: one in the old city's Taohuawu district, another a five-star hotel near the Gate of the Orient, and this Suzhou Jinji Lake L Hotel. The main reason I ultimately chose this one was because it's relatively new, and the reviews seemed good. I also saw some photo reviews that made it look quite stylish (though I admit I was a little worried they might be fake at the time). However, my concerns were relieved upon arrival – it really does look just like the pictures!
The service was also excellent, very warm and thoughtful. Our flight was delayed, so we checked in late at night, and the staff even gave us some bread to try. Breakfast is also highly recommended! We stayed for 5 nights, and even though the menu was the same each day, we never felt the food was monotonous; there were plenty of choices.
Another plus is that the hotel has so many photo opportunities everywhere, perfect for kids who love taking pictures. The surrounding environment is also great; step outside and you're at Jinji Lake Moonlight Wharf, with many restaurants nearby, giving it a very cultured vibe. It's also very close to the subway station. All in all, I highly recommend it! For more details, please see the pictures!

Guest UserThe room was clean and had a unique charm. The hostess was lovely and incredibly thoughtful. I've already booked for next year! My trip was a bit rushed this time, so I didn't get to fully appreciate all the creative touches at Zhoushuang Life Inn. I'll save that for next year's visit.

Traveling to Shantang Street with my good friends and our kids, I was getting a headache trying to find a hotel. Luckily, we ended up staying at this hotel right inside the scenic area. The garden-style landscaping is absolutely beautiful and perfect for photos. We could easily pop back to the hotel for a rest whenever we got tired. 😄 Our room had one king bed and one twin bed, and the best part is that they were movable, so we could push them together – fulfilling the kids' wish to sleep together! ❤️ The hotel's bathtub was huge; even though we only stayed one night, the kids took two baths and had a blast. The air conditioning was also incredibly powerful, which was an absolute lifesaver in this scorching summer heat!!! The hotel even provided afternoon tea, which, paired with the lotus flowers we bought in the scenic area, made for some fantastic photos – we took dozens, haha. It's especially great for a getaway with your girlfriends because the room has a two-sided mirror, so you can do your makeup together. 😄 The breakfast was delicious and served as a set meal with exquisite presentation. Kids' breakfasts are even complimentary! On top of that, you can feed the fish at the hotel, which the kids absolutely loved, hahaha. Next time we visit Suzhou, we will definitely stay at Zhu again. This summer trip was too hot and rushed; only staying one night was a bit of a shame. P.S. The staff were super nice. Before check-in, they thoughtfully informed us about various convenient transportation options and the hotel's Wi-Fi. All our small requests were met quickly and efficiently. The staff even helped us carry our luggage upstairs, and when we asked the front desk for bottled water, they generously gave us several bottles at once. Truly amazing!

Guest UserWe stayed 1 night in this lovely hotel on a Sunday night. We managed to check in early at 1 pm and was upgraded from the 30 sqm king room we booked to a larger 41 sqm room. The room is new and used lovely bath amenities, an Australian hotel brand. Our stay came with a set dinner for 2 persons and the food was delicious. The pricing in the hotel restaurant is similar or cheaper than any other regular Chinese restaurant outside. We paid the next day at lunch time to eat Chinese food at the hotel again as the restaurant environment is nice and service is good. They have a very well equipped gym which unfortunately we did not have time to use during our 24 hour stay. Our room rate included breakfast and the selection was generous, the only negative would be the coffee beans they used are too acidic but that’s a personal preference. The location of the hotel is slightly to 1 side of the Suzhou old city but some sights like 网师园 are walking distance. Suzhou city is actually quite spread out, no one location is best for sightseeing. The great thing is didi only cost less than RMB10 per ride from this hotel so it is still very convenient. I would not bother with the Suzhou subway, it is not as convenient as the one in Shanghai. Oh yes, the cable TV have english programming which is nice for a hotel in China. I believe this Artyzen Habitat brand is managed by the Macau Shun Tak group. Will stay here again for good value and service. 这个酒店非常好,值得回来再住。五星级的设施,四星级的价钱。
