Jiangnan House Changyuan

The biggest surprise of coming to Suzhou was staying in such a beautiful boutique hotel as Youxiong Changyuan. The housekeeper was very cooperative before coming and prepared the room in advance. He introduced that Changyuan was a hotel converted from a garden in the late Qing Dynasty. The book room at the entrance was amazing. Later, I looked up Xiaohongshu and didn’t expect that it was designed by Mr. Xie Ke. The big bed room on the second floor has an excellent view. The modern and simple style does not lose the temperament of the literati in the national style. The plum blossoms extending from the pavilion outside the tea room window are still blooming. I don’t want to go to the crowded gardens and attractions at all. Breakfast is divided into Chinese and Western styles. The housekeeper will communicate in advance and prepare in advance. The taste is particularly good! I highly recommend this treasure hotel!

The Chinese-style hotel I stayed in this time was really to my liking. It was rebuilt in the entire Changyuan Garden and the entire small Su-style garden was privately owned. I have to say that our ancestors had a very high aesthetic taste. Room 02 where I stayed was 50+ square meters and very spacious. The interior decoration was in the Nordic Wabi-sabi style. The view outside the floor-to-ceiling window was also great. The bathroom was also very large, with a bathtub for separate wet and dry areas. You can choose Chinese breakfast, which can also be delivered to the room. It was cozy. You can read books and bask in the sun in the public area. I liked it very much. All details were handled very well. 24-hour butler service was provided. Xiao Xue and Xiao Luo received us. They were young and enthusiastic, very considerate and easy to communicate with. I highly recommend them. Because it is located deep in the alley, there is also a car to pick you up. You can contact them in advance and they will come to the entrance of the alley to wait. It is not recommended to drive here. The alley is too narrow and it is not convenient to park.

I've always wanted to stay in a garden-style hotel. I tried this one and was pleasantly surprised. It looks different at night than during the day. The butler service is also very good. When it's almost breakfast time, they will ask if you need food delivered. The facilities and room layout are also very comfortable. You really get what you pay for.

This is the worst stay experience in the past ten years, it can be described as unbearable! It's a complete waste of such a good garden foundation. Apart from the serious service of the guy at the front desk, there is nothing else to recommend it. Five-star charges, but a hotel-style feel. The hotel design is inhumane, the supporting facilities are rough and impractical, and the so-called simple Zen is expressed stiffly (there is almost no place to sit comfortably). The equipment and facilities are old and cracked, and the garden lacks detailed maintenance. (The temperature in the bathroom could not be raised even after adding an electric heater) (Many things on the walls were moldy) The internal service personnel lacked professional business training and were blindly working without any standards. (A rag is used to wipe everything) The hygiene situation is even more terrible. The table in the restaurant is covered with old grease stains, and the walls of the bathroom have stains left over from previous washing. . . . Is it to express a sense of age? ? The breakfast was not as good as the ones sold at street stalls. It was still not heated through at 9 o'clock in the morning. Even the mud on the dishes was not cleaned off. It was so frustrating! collapse! Thanks to the coordination between the Ctrip service guy and the front desk guy, I finally checked out two days in advance. I walked out of the hotel door and breathed a sigh of relief..........
