The room was great, and the pool was fantastic! Breakfast had a good variety too. The hotel's location is excellent, which my kids loved, and it was so convenient to get around. The apartment-style setup was super handy, and we noticed many international guests staying there.

The room was spacious, perfect for a family trip. The location is excellent, right by the Yangtze River with beautiful views, and convenient for visiting all the attractions. I'll definitely choose this place again next time I'm in Chongqing. Highly recommended!

Everything else was pretty satisfactory. The breakfast was still quite varied, and the pool was clean. The room was also tidy. However, the power went out twice for several hours on the third day, which really impacted our last day's experience negatively. Given how hot it's been recently, the room got quite stuffy and uncomfortable.

I had a wonderful stay at Somerset Chongqing and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting the city.
The room was spacious, modern, and exceptionally clean, with comfortable bedding and all the amenities needed for a relaxing stay. The fully equipped kitchen and washing machine were especially convenient for longer trips.
The staff were friendly, professional, and always willing to help. Check-in and check-out were smooth, and the service throughout my stay exceeded my expectations.
The location was excellent, making it easy to reach major attractions, restaurants, and public transportation. Despite being in a convenient area, the hotel was quiet and peaceful, allowing for a great night’s sleep.
Overall, Somerset Chongqing offers outstanding value for money with excellent facilities, comfortable accommodations, and exceptional service. I would definitely stay here again on my next visit to Chongqing.

This stay was absolutely wonderful! The apartment's location is superb, offering beautiful river views, and getting to major attractions is incredibly convenient. The front desk staff were polite and thoughtful, even proactively offering us a free room upgrade, which was a lovely surprise. The breakfast was plentiful, and the room was cleaned daily. The hotel has an underground garage with free parking. After checking out, we accidentally left a power bank in the room, and the staff promptly called us to let us know they found it and kept it safe for us. The room was comfortable, and the service was warm and responsible. Overall, I'm extremely satisfied and will definitely choose to stay here again on my next visit to Chongqing!

Great location, central but not in a noisy area. The room was really big and clean, and the service was excellent. They had a wide selection for breakfast, and it tasted good. My room type was a studio apartment, which also had a super spacious living room and kitchen. Very comfortable!

Amazing
Posted on Jun 2, 2026
Nice big apartment room (more than 75m2).
Polite and some English speaking staff.
Upgraded to river view.
Hotel not far from old elephant town.
I would definitely stay again
My only comment is that because the separation of my room with a neighbouring room was just a double door to allow for the option of bigger space through adjoining rooms for families, it meant that unfortunately, I could hear my loud talking neighbours. Maybe some sound insulation could be placed on the inside of the doors.
In fairness, the hotel staff offered the option of changing rooms when I told them.
Overall, great hotel
Response from Property: Thank you for staying at Somerset Yangtze River Chongqing and sharing your detailed review! We’re delighted you loved our spacious apartment, complimentary river view upgrade, attentive staff and convenient location close to Ancient Elephant Town.We’ve noted your suggestion to add sound insulation to inter-room connecting doors and will coordinate with our engineering team for optimization. We are glad our team offered a room change when you mentioned noise from neighbours.Looking forward to welcoming you again soon!

Executive studio, Room 1206.
Pros: Spacious; comfortable bed, pillows, duvet, and sofa; good bathroom facilities with quick hot water.
Cons: The biggest issue was the refrigerator not cooling, even when set to the highest level.
Service staff were generally friendly.

As a loyal supporter of this brand, it's been our top choice for family trips in recent years. This time, revisiting Chongqing during a holiday rush, the hotel became our ultimate retreat. We spent a significant amount of time there with family, which naturally raised our expectations. The hotel's location was fantastic, with unbeatable river views and an excellent panorama.
I still hope the management can focus on basic detail management and improve the quality of in-room amenities. If disposables aren't provided, it should be clearly stated; if they are, their quality should be guaranteed. The disposable slippers tore within half a day, and the quality of the toothbrushes and toothpaste really needs improvement. I hope the management team addresses these details and continues to optimize their products and services. I have full confidence in Ascott and look forward to choosing them again in the future.
An unexpected bonus was the complimentary travel photography session that came with our room booking. Although we only took photos in the room due to time constraints, the photographer was patient and professional, capturing beautiful moments for my family in a short amount of time.

We deeply regret the poor quality of the disposable slippers and toiletries, and we humbly accept your valuable suggestions.

Going forward, we will clearly indicate the availability of disposable amenities, strictly upgrade and replace the materials and quality of amenities, and pay close attention to details to live up to your high expectations of the brand. We are also particularly pleased that you and your family enjoyed the complimentary in-room photography experience. Thank you for recognizing the photographer's professional and patient service; we are very happy to have captured such beautiful moments for your family.

The hygiene was quite poor. The showerhead was broken, and there was a strange smell in the room. It was a really bad experience overall.
