Somebody I Used to Know

Atour is a nice boutique style hotel. We stayed in a suite there in Tonglu for 2 nights. The suite faces the Binjiang park and the Fuchen river.
The panoramic view from the 10th floor is incredible, definitely one of the best views we have experienced in China.
The friendly front desk staff checked us in with the help of a translator app since our Mandarin is not great. We don't let that stop us
from traveling in China - we don't expect English when we travel, but we do know how to work through any language difficulty.
The hotel is in really good shape....modern and contemporary feel. The breakfast on the 8th floor was modest but superb.
The staff there is very friendly and even the housekeeping people were always pleasant with us. When we went out at night
and walked through the park it was pretty apparent that we were the only foreigners in the neighborhood. Only 2 hours away from
Shanghai by high speed train- Tonglu is definitely on our "return to" list.
