Hotels With Breakfast in Jiangsu, China

My stay at Pan Pacific Suzhou was absolutely fantastic! The hotel beautifully recreates the aesthetics of the ancient Wu Kingdom from the Spring and Autumn period, with its pavilions, terraces, and waterside promenades showcasing classic Suzhou elegance. Every step offers a picturesque view. As a project under Singapore’s GIC and Temasek, its unique foresight in choosing a prime location in the heart of the ancient city back in 1995 is remarkable. It also boasts a rich history, having hosted numerous dignitaries. Guests can enjoy free access to Panmen Gate by using their room key, and it's incredibly convenient to visit core attractions like Canglang Pavilion, Lingering Garden, Suzhou Museum, and Xiyuan Temple. Plus, the hotel's own restaurants, like Ruigarden Noodle House, are definitely worth trying – it truly enhances the overall experience!

The hotel has a great location. The front desk staff were very welcoming with smiles and efficient during check-in, always ready to assist with any requests. There's also complimentary freshly ground coffee in the lobby. The room was spacious, and the shower had good water pressure. The bedding was comfortable. The hotel is very close to the subway, and there are plenty of dining options nearby. It's also not far from various attractions. Overall, it was a great stay. Oh, and by the way, we accidentally left some medicine behind after checking out. The staff personally called to inform us, and we were able to retrieve it. Huge thanks to the housekeeping team and the front desk staff!

I stayed at the Yingbinguan for five days and four nights, in rooms 11 and 1. On the first day, I booked a room in Building 3 to try it out. After checking in, I was given a terrible room on the 4th floor with no view whatsoever, just a wall opposite. So, I went downstairs to request a room change and asked if an upgrade was possible. A rather plump young man at the Building 3 front desk reluctantly told me that upgrades weren't possible, and that others paid for upgrades (with a rather sarcastic tone). After I insisted, he made me wait for 40 minutes, creating various obstacles and excuses to deny an upgrade, like saying the room wasn't cleaned or only offering a 2nd-floor room in Building 3. Finally, he unhappily upgraded me to Building 11. My experience checking into Building 11 was pretty good, but upon checkout, the bellboy was quite slow; he didn't proactively open the door. After waiting for 5 seconds, he reluctantly came over, but since I was traveling alone and sitting in the back, he opened the passenger side door instead, which left me feeling both amused and speechless 😑. For the following days, I booked a room on the 1st floor of Building 1. The view was even better, with lush greenery outside the window. The two young women at the front desk of Building 1 were particularly attentive and meticulous with their service. Overall, the environment at Yingbinguan is excellent. I'll definitely come back to stay in Buildings 1, 2, 8, or 9 if I have the chance.

Location: Super convenient! Confucius Temple, Fuguo Street, Suning Mall, Golden Eagle, Hubushan, and Huilongwo are all within walking distance. The subway station is right downstairs, which is a huge plus, especially during Golden Week when traffic can be a nightmare. It's definitely a landmark building in the absolute city center. Cleanliness: Better than expected, but since it's on a high floor, all the windows are sealed. I personally prefer good ventilation. Facilities: Better than expected, but the hairdryer was a bit basic. Service: The housekeeping staff and the cheerful young man who seated us in the restaurant were all very polite and genuinely enthusiastic, not just mechanically so.

This time, my family and I stayed at the Jinling Hotel, and it happened to be my birthday. I was truly touched by the thoughtful service of the fairy housekeeper – she deserves a massive shout-out! The housekeeper proactively reached out beforehand to confirm the delivery time for my birthday cake, arranging everything perfectly. The next day, we spontaneously decided to have the cake delivered earlier. After contacting her, she immediately helped coordinate the change without hesitation, responding super quickly! As a renowned five-star hotel, Jinling Hotel's service certainly lives up to its reputation. The housekeeper was enthusiastic, attentive, gentle, and patient throughout our stay. Every detail showed how much effort she put in. This stay wasn't just about accommodation; it was a birthday experience filled with surprises and warmth.

Hotel location inside Fuzimiao (Confucius Temple) zone is excellent. Stepping out from the hotel entrance into the pedestrian-only street are tonnes of restaurants and stalls.( Everyday I was spoiled for food choices.) Yet, the hotel remains sheltered, calm and insulated from the outside festivities. The room I stayed for 4 nights was spacious, clean with air-conditioning. Shower water pressure and hot water was excellent. Everyday a bag of fruits (banana, orange, apple, pear, cherry tomatoes...) were dropped off. All the snacks and drinks in the room were included (free). Overall, the hotel was not luxurious (in the traditional 5-star sense) but contains a captivating charm that transport one back to Chinese antiquity. It was a pleasant stay. One minor blemish was the in-room safe not working as it should. Reception said hardly any guests use the room safe. That's understandable given the overall safe environment.

Couldn't believe there was such a stylish hotel right in the popular Shantang Street scenic area. As soon as I walked in, I was drawn in by the unique design. The lobby was very spacious, and even more surprising was the complimentary minibar in the room, stocked with BaiSuiShan water, which was a nice touch. The hotel offers a free shuttle service to and from the station, which I didn't get to use since I drove, but parking was also free. That's a real rarity in the old city center where space is at a premium. The breakfast also had a great variety. Overall, a very satisfying trip.

The hotel is right opposite Guanqian Street, so the location is excellent and super convenient for shopping. I appreciate that you don't need a key card to get electricity, which is a thoughtful touch. The hotel feels quite new and is clean. Our family room was spacious and bright. However, it was quite noisy facing the street, and the soundproofing of the room door wasn't great. Being close to the elevator, there was constant noise from people passing by in the hallway, especially since we had to use our key card to go up to our room ourselves and weren't escorted. It was hard to find, and people would often linger and talk right outside our door, which woke us up throughout the night. The breakfast offered a wide variety and tasted good. There's also a late-night snack service, and if you order takeout, a robot delivers it to your door. Overall, it was okay, but on Sunday afternoon, there were many people smoking in the hotel lobby. As soon as you stepped out of the elevator, it reeked of smoke, and no one seemed to be doing anything about it, which was very unpleasant. I might consider staying here again if I'm traveling alone or with just one other person, but I definitely wouldn't choose it for a family trip again.

My relatives came to Changzhou for a visit, so I booked them into the Reekte Hotel. The hotel quality is really high, the rooms are cozy and comfortable, and there's a great variety at breakfast. The front desk service was also excellent; they even upgraded our room for free because we had a child with us. I'm very satisfied! I'd definitely stay here again if I have the chance!

Whenever I return to Suzhou from abroad, I always choose Pingjiang Lodge. It holds a special place in my heart because I used to walk past it and Pingjiang Road every day on my way to school. Plus, the hotel boasts a 500-year-old 'Half Garden.' Though small, it's a quintessential Suzhou garden where you can sit and enjoy tea, complete with parrots that say 'hello.' It's truly a remedy for homesickness, no need to visit other gardens. The service has always been exceptional. During this stay, I mentioned that it had been 40 years since I left Suzhou, and Manager Xiao Tang at the front desk immediately upgraded my room and sent some fruit. Breakfast is decent, and the hotel's homemade toppings are authentic – I look forward to them every morning. The location is absolutely perfect; Pingjiang Road is right outside, and popular attractions like Humble Administrator's Garden, Lion Grove Garden, and Suzhou Museum are all incredibly close. There are also various specialty snacks and restaurants nearby. Aside from the crowds of tourists, it's practically flawless. Staying here makes me so happy; it truly feels like coming home.
