Totally fell in love with Anshe Hotel! A hidden gem next to Guanqian Street in Suzhou✨ Seriously! Staying at Anshe Hotel Guanqian Street Pingjiang Road branch in Suzhou, I was so impressed I wanted to extend my stay! From the moment I stepped into the hotel, my impression soared—excellent location, high aesthetic appeal, and spotless hygiene, plus the front desk staff's thoughtful service, like a "living map of Suzhou," completely maximized my happiness for this trip~ 🏨 Hotel Features: Detail-oriented people will love it! • Prime Location: Located at No. 17 Jianxin Lane, Gusu District, with the bustling Guanqian Street on one side and the tranquil Pingjiang Road on the other. Just a 5-minute walk out the door, you can immerse yourself in the old city's vibrant life. After enjoying the night scenery, strolling back to the hotel feels incredibly safe🌃 • Heart-touching Style: The wooden grilles in the rooms, paired with warm yellow lighting, offer both ancient charm and modern flair. Pulling back the curtains reveals alley views with white walls and dark gray tiles, making you feel as if you've stepped into a Jiangnan painting🎋 • Perfect Hygiene: Clean freaks rejoice! The sheets and duvet covers smell like sunshine, the bathroom glass is free of water stains, and even the slippers look as clean as if they were just unwrapped. The cleanliness in every detail makes for a super reassuring stay✨ • Warm Service: The front desk proactively introduced nearby attractions and activities, helped us book Pingjiang Road's Pingtan (storytelling and ballad singing) performance, and thoughtfully prepared mosquito repellent patches (those who know Jiangnan summer nights will understand). Upon check-out, they even gave us Suzhou's special crispy candy. This thoughtfulness truly touched me💖 🚶 Nearby Attractions: Suzhou's highlights are just a step away • Pingjiang Road Historical Block (5-minute walk): Bluestone paths with small bridges and flowing water. During the day, you can browse handmade shops and drink bamboo tube milk tea. In the evening, sit by the river and listen to the sound of sculling boats.

Thin skin, abundant juice. Bite a small hole to slurp the soup, then dip in vinegar – it's incredibly fresh. Pair it with a bowl of beef vermicelli soup for a warm and filling meal🥟 • Songhelou (Guanqian Street branch): A century-old Su-style cuisine restaurant. The Squirrel-shaped Mandarin Fish is crispy outside and tender inside, evenly coated with sweet and sour sauce; the Sizzling Eel Paste is fragrant and pairs perfectly with rice – you could eat two bowls🍚 • Shuangta Market (15-minute walk): A former wet market transformed into a food paradise. Recommend Wu Shengxing Soup Dumplings, Laotantou Fried Fish Noodles, and freshly made Tangzhou (sweet rice porridge), which is sweet, soft, warm, and full of local flavor🥢 • Pingjiang Road Jitoumishui Shop: Seasonal jitoumishui (foxnut dessert) available in autumn, soft, sweet, and refreshing. Sprinkling osmanthus adds more fragrance. Super comforting after a long walk🌾 I've stayed in many hotels, but Anshe truly left a deep impression on me—it's not just a place to rest, but more like a friend who understands Suzhou and helps you plan your trip perfectly. Next time I come to Suzhou, I will definitely stay here again!
