Angsana Suzhou Hotel is an absolute value for money choice
Angsana Suzhou is an absolutely cost-effective choice.
I have always wanted to record some of the hotels I have stayed in, so I will start with the Angsana Suzhou during this year's May Day holiday.
Unlike previous years, hotels in Suzhou are much more expensive this year. The price of Shangri-La Hotel in Suzhou has more than doubled in the past 21 years. Even the Home Inn Select in the city has soared.
700+, it's really scary. When I was worrying about where to stay, I suddenly thought of the newly opened Banyan Tree and the Banyan Tree next to it. Although Banyan Tree is good, the price of 5,000 during the May Day holiday is daunting; in comparison, Yuesana, which can get two breakfasts for just over 1,000, seems very affordable.
The hotel is located on Lion Mountain in Suzhou (on the edge of Suzhou city). Although it is far from the city's attractions and the railway station, there is a subway so transportation is quite convenient. The hotel is beautiful both in terms of architectural design and surrounding scenery, and it has a direct link to the Banyan Tree, so you can enjoy some of the Banyan Tree's public areas (although the Banyan Tree's public areas are pretty mediocre to be honest). The basic room is 42 square meters, which is neither too big nor too small, which is the expected standard for a hotel of this level. As it is a newly opened hotel, the facilities are still good. The only thing that can be improved is that the breakfast has few varieties. Here comes the point. Their service is excellent. From the moment you enter the hotel, there are waiters carrying your luggage to the room. All the waiters you meet in the hotel have very good attitudes. The room comes with welcome fruits, a minibar and cakes for free. When you check out, they give you two stuffed toys as a small surprise. This kind of service is really very high among the city hotels of the same level that I have stayed in in recent years.
In general, it is very satisfying to spend a little over 1,000 yuan to stay in a hotel of this level during the May Day holiday. The basic rooms at 700 to 800 yuan are not expensive at ordinary times. If you find it difficult to stay in Four Seasons, Park Hyatt, Banyan Tree and other hotels that cost more than 2,500 yuan, I personally feel that staying at Yuesana in Suzhou is a very cost-effective choice.
