2-Star Hotels in Suzhou

We booked two rooms by the river, and the view was absolutely beautiful. The rooms themselves were clean and dry, which was great. The hostess was incredibly warm and welcoming, making us feel right at home. We even received a small gift when we left! Looking forward to staying here again!

The room was very comfortable and the hotel's location was superb – it was so easy to get to all the city's attractions. The staff were incredibly friendly and even let me store my cake in the fridge. Highly recommend this hotel! 👍👍

This stay exceeded my expectations. I had originally just planned to find a random place to sleep for a few hours since it was late at night. But this place wasn't just quiet; the surroundings were incredibly serene, and it was very clean. The owner even came out to meet me because she was worried I wouldn't find it. The room had a charming, antique feel and was well-equipped. While not luxurious, it had its own unique character. I actually came here from another hotel. I had booked a room at the eLong Anyun Hotel Zhoushan Store, which was twice the price of this guesthouse. But the room there was tiny, the facilities were run down, and the outdoor air conditioner unit made an unbearable amount of noise, making it impossible to sleep. They also refused to give me any refund. Since I couldn't sleep at all, I left and found this place. I'm so grateful this guesthouse saved my sleep!

I arrived in pouring rain. I thought I could walk to my hotel but it was impossible in the downpour. I didn’t want to bother any hotel owner.   I didn’t and still don’t  have an eSIM that can make local  call but thanks to Trip.com, there is a link that I could call the owner for free.  I didn’t advise the owners my arrival time so they were off running errands.  I called the owner to pick me up and thankfully he answered. He was busy but gracious enough to turn around and picked me up. It knew Zhouhuang requires a ticket but I didn’t know that no cars, nor motorcycles, nor bicycles are allowed. Without him I would have arrived the hotel easily.  I always like to meet the owners instead of employees . They were very helpful and answered all my questions. They are honest people who dedicate their  blood and sweat to their business. The owner even offered to walk me to the bus stop  to Suzhou which was my next destination.  This  operates two hotels with 9 in one and 6 in the other. The one that I stayed in with 9 rooms is in a  lively and busy area . Just outside the hotel is a restaurant and there are plenty of places to eat. Inside the hotel is a peaceful oasis where you won’t hear any noise. The location is the best. The other hotel is in a quieter neighborhood a few minutes away. Each of the 15 rooms has it’s own personality, is different and has its distinctive decoration. The owners said they decorated them themselves. I love the decoration and especially the lighting.  After you reserve a room, be sure to contact the owner for the exact address in case you want to arrive on your own. I think it is best to request the owner to take you there because he/she will lead you to the ticket booth to buy tickets. There are a number of bridges so heavy big luggages can be a bit of a challenge .  If you arrive after 5 pm, you can enter free of charge as no one is there to check your ticket. . But once you are inside, and if you choose to leave the area after 8 or 9 am until 5 pm, you have to pay to come back in. You can buy a one day or in my case 3 days pass.  Do check with the owner for up to date information.  The room was quite clean. There were hot water all the time. There were other guests during my stay but they were not noisy at all. I barely heard them. I slept very well during my 3 nights there.  Zhouhuang is really beautiful. There are many canals, bridges, boat rides, good food of all kinds. I had some of the best meals there. In fact , I ate in the same restaurant that serves dumpling twice. One night I had grill (BBQ) meat just outside the entrance for 4 yuans. .  There is decent size supermarket just outside the turnstile and not too far away is a much bigger supermarket. It was there where I bought half a Peking duck for only 32 yuans . The seller sliced the meat and separated the meat from  the bones. The bones he fried so it was crunchy.  It was delicious. There is a theater that offers performances. The night view is great. If you step out your room, you will be overwhelmed in a good sense by the exciting surroundings.  This hotel definitely is one of the best that I have ever stayed in. Look at the beautiful pictures and find one that you like.  I stayed only 3 nights and one of those days I went to Tongli. In my opinion, one should spend at least 2 to 3 full days in  Zhouhuang (and especially this hotel ) savor the ambience. I don’t think Tongli is worth the time because it was twice as expensive and there are not that many canals and boat rides. It is much quieter and has fewer things to see. . The worst is that the sightseeing places require you to show your ticket. After 2 places, I lost mine ticket and I  couldn’t get in the rest of the places. It is unnecessary to require proof of entrance because you can’t enter the area without a ticket. 

The room is clean and well equipped with everything you need for a comfortable vacation. The location is splendid as it is located right beside Times Square and the IFS tower. The reception was very helpful with all the request made and is available 24/7. Would definitely recommend this place for families travelling to Suzhou.

The guesthouse is placed in the middle of Suzhou ancient city, in a picturesque and silent street. The house is very beautiful, the furniture are elegant, there is also a smart toilet and disposable items. Unfortunately there were not bath towels but paper ones. There was no front desk at all, even if specified in the property description. We arrived at 13 (frontdesk time 8-19) but nobody was there and we didn't receive anything on the trip.com chat. When we called the property, they answered us only in Chinese and then sent us a weChat Qr code. They wrote us only in Chinese even if we were texting them in English. Fortunately weChat has a translation service, otherwise it would have been impossible for us to understand what to do. They gave then information about how to reach the property (even if we were already there) and gave us an access code that we were not able to use, since we didn't know the most important thing: the room number. Furthermore the access code changed anytime we go out (they said it's a problem related to non-chinese people) and was quite annoying to write them all the time on we chat. The room is very good though!

A clean simple room. this place is close to shops and transportation. . The hotel staff Xiaoli and friends are helpful and hardworking. Common area carpet and seat inside the room is acceptable but better to be improved to attract more visitors. . Good value for money . No breakfast area with tables to eat but no big issue as shops next door along the street . Eating place not far. Hotel street address 406 in trip.com is wrong as it is a shop address but actual hotel location is just next door on far left . dont be confused.. follow 408,410,412 so on until the corner of the block on the bus stop . there is no latin name but hotel is using chinese character in orange background color . There is a cute kid size statue outside the front door .

The location of the Inn was brilliant(almosy right in the centre of the tongli ancient town)and the staff was very friendly. The beds were very comfortable. Only downside was that the AC had a very humid smell to it and it would leak on the floor sometimes. I also don't think the images showed that the shower was open for the whole bathroom, I wish it was specified before but it was managable. Other than this no complaints! My stay was pleasant.

Facilities: The facilities are very comprehensive, and they even upgraded our room type. Plus, it uses a password lock, which is convenient. Cleanliness: It was very clean, on par with what I usually expect. Service: The staff were all wonderful, and they even enthusiastically helped us plan our travel itinerary.

Haha, I found a bargain. The check-in experience was great! The front desk staff is warm and thoughtful, the room is clean and tidy, the bedding is comfortable, the breakfast is rich in variety, and the location is very convenient. Highly recommended!
