Weekend Hotel Soak—Zhangjiagang Marriott
Weekend Hotel Soak—Zhangjiagang Marriott
Drove an hour to check out the Zhangjiagang Marriott
Didn't expect our small county town to have such a high occupancy rate
The Jiangsu-Zhejiang-Shanghai mini Ritz is quite interesting
25F corner room with a view
The lounge on 36F is already quite good by small city standards
Breakfast on 39F is standard, surprisingly there's even Suzhou-style mung bean soup
The service in both the lounge and the restaurant is really good

Zhangjiagang Marriott - known as the "Little Ritz of Southern Jiangsu"||
||1️⃣Reservation
The hotel's weekend rates are cheaper than weekdays. I booked for Friday and Saturday nights, with the APP price at 874 RMB per night. One day in advance, the APP suggested an upgrade to a suite, and on the day of check-in (Friday) morning, I found the upgrade was successful. Then I saw the price was 790 RMB per night, so I canceled the reservation and rebooked, and still managed to get the suite upgrade smoothly after contacting customer service.
2️⃣Room
The suites at Zhangjiagang Marriott are 98 square meters, with plenty of them available and all with broad views. It's rare to see all the suites occupied, so the chances of getting an upgrade are high. The hotel opened in 2019 and the facilities are well maintained. Upon entering the room, the lights turn on and the curtains open automatically. The large floor-to-ceiling windows in the bedroom, combined with the electric curtains, are my favorite, even though there isn't much of a view outside, and it can't compare to the lake view suites at the Xuzhou Marriott.
The bathtub in the bathroom is really big, taking half an hour to fill, but it's not deep enough. It's a bit difficult to submerge your neck, and taller people might not be able to soak completely.
3️⃣Turndown Service
I checked in on Friday night around nine o'clock, and the turndown service had already been done in the room. Welcome fruits and a handwritten welcome card were placed in the living room, and a small nail clipper was left by the bed. The bathroom was also prepared with a floor towel and a non-slip mat, showing meticulous and thoughtful service.
4️⃣Executive Lounge
The lounge closes at ten o'clock at night. I finished checking in after nine and missed the happy hour, but the lounge still had some bread, fruit, and desserts available, along with attentive service. The afternoon tea was standard.
The happy hour at Zhangjiagang Marriott is highly praised, and after experiencing it myself, it's indeed one of the best among hotels of the same level. It's not perfunctory at all, and even better than some JW Marriotts. The lounge wasn't crowded on Saturday night, with no fighting over food or waiting for seats, and there were quite a few foreigners.
The variety during happy hour was rich, and I was too shy to take pictures of the buffet, so I only took photos of what I got for myself. Some of my favorite dishes were seafood spicy pot, cold duck tongues, steamed fish, roast duck rolls, radish and pork rib soup... In short, the variety and quality of the dishes under the Marriott level are really excellent and generous, and the food was replenished quickly.
4️⃣Conclusion
Overall, I think Zhangjiagang Marriott is a very member-friendly hotel. The generous suite upgrades and excellent lounge quality allow members to fully enjoy their benefits. The room facilities and services are also very good, making it a hotel I would like to visit often.
Lastly, about the breakfast, I think it's the weakest part. The choices are not that many, and there's a pitifully small amount of meat. Moreover, after nine o'clock, some dishes were not replenished. I already found the breakfast at Xuzhou Marriott quite average, and this was even worse than that.

The Suzhou chapter of staying in a hotel with my boyfriend~ The 270° floor-to-ceiling window is amazing
I experienced it during the Chinese New Year (the 29th and 30th of the lunar year). This hotel is said to be busier during working hours; I went back to my hometown during the Chinese New Year, stayed for two days, and the old people at home couldn't cook anything delicious. The four of us looked at each other 😄 I broke the routine and said let's spend the New Year in a hotel. Unexpectedly, the old people were very happy and didn't have to spend the New Year at home. They took a small bag and went with me to book a room haha. I chose the Zhangjiagang Marriott, which is said to have a rich bar comparable to the Ritz-Carlton. I temporarily booked two rooms. Fortunately, there were not many people during the Chinese New Year. I communicated the executive courtesy in advance. The other room added 100/person? (I forgot the specifics) and upgraded the Unicom suite, very satisfied 👍The bar of this hotel is really good!!! It's worth the extra money, the bar usually has a hot stall at night!!! It's really rich; although the hot stall was cancelled on New Year's Eve, everyone was provided with a bowl of Buddha's temptation, an unexpected surprise, it feels very good!! The breakfast is also rich, it's worth experiencing if you stay in a hotel for food and drink; the service of the bar is also very good, the little girl in the bar, I forgot to note her name, "Audrey Tiezhu" is very enthusiastic and thoughtful ❤️Zhangjiagang doesn't have many places to play, the downstairs of the hotel is a shopping mall, we went to eat barbecue at noon, it's convenient, there are slightly fewer attractions, Zhangjiagang Bay is worth taking pictures and watching the big wheel ship 👍The hotel facilities are relatively new, the aunt cleans very actively, the spare parts are added very timely, if you go to spend the weekend, stay in the hotel, it is recommended, the cost performance is very good, Marriott Platinum, points booking one night 11500 points, return 1000 points 1️⃣The hotel opened in 2019, the hardware is very new, and it is well received. Distance: It's a bit far from the high-speed rail station, about twenty minutes by taxi 2️⃣Upgrade: Talk about upgrading to a suite with an area of 98 square meters, which is also a corner room with a good view. When entering the room, the welcome fruit is already on the table, and another ice lolly-like chocolate dessert is sent 3️⃣Bar: The quality of the fruit is online, the watermelon is very sweet, and the happy hour is also very rich 4️⃣Surroundings: Wanda is just across the street, it's very convenient to eat and shop. Yangshe Old Street is 2.5 kilometers away, which is relatively close, you can go for a walk 5️⃣The bathtub is super big, it takes a long time to fill up... A reminder, toothbrushes and other disposable items are placed in the safe 6️⃣Small Tips: The hotel will send a nail clipper with the hotel logo when it opens the bed at night. The back of this nail clipper can be used as a bottle opener to open beer *️⃣Summary: One of the highest cost performance in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai, the hardware is very new, it is more cost-effective to exchange points, it is about 1w all year round, suitable for weekend Staycation Marriott Hotel 🏨

Are you coming to Zhangjiagang and not staying in a top hotel? That's great

Hotel environment: Marriott is considered a landmark building in Zhangjiagang, very high, the highest grade, the whole hotel is clean and tidy!
Most recommended: First of all, the geographical location is good, the commercial complex is downstairs, very convenient. Friendly upgraded the suite, large area and new facilities, there is a round bathtub inside that children like very much, the room is located in the corner with excellent view.
