My stay at the Garden Hotel was a mixed experience. While the location was superb, close to major attractions, I found the rooms rather overwhelming and not as comfortable as I'd hoped. The staff were friendly and tried their best, but there were issues with room requests and breakfast that detracted from my overall experience.

Rooms

5.0

I stayed in a Deluxe Suite, which was incredibly spacious but overwhelming. The room was divided across two floors, making it quite a hassle to navigate, especially with luggage. I also noted the room had a strong cigarette smell, despite my request for a non-smoking room.

Service

6.0

The staff were hardworking and accommodating, often going out of their way to assist, such as helping me get taxis. However, there were times when their limited English and lack of knowledge impacted the service.

Location

8.0

The hotel's location is excellent, just steps away from the Master of the Nets garden and close to the scenic ShanTang Water town. It made exploring Suzhou quite convenient.

Dining

5.0

Breakfast options were decent but not great, especially for the price. The dining area was quite crowded with families, which made for an unpleasant experience.

Facilities

6.0

The hotel grounds are beautiful, with landscaped areas to relax in. However, the facilities overall felt a bit dated and in need of updating.

My stay at the Garden Hotel in Suzhou was a mixed bag. The location is pretty convenient for exploring the Lingering Garden and even leisurely walks along Shantang Street, though I found the main shopping areas quite far. The rooms were decent but need some updating, and the pervasive smell of smoke was definitely a downside for me as a non-smoker. On the bright side, the breakfast selection was solid and the staff were genuinely helpful.

Rooms

6.0

The room was spacious but basic, with an old feel that could use some refurbishment. There was a strong odor of smoke that made it uncomfortable, especially for non-smokers like me. The lighting was also not great, but I found the bed to be typical for China, which means it was on the harder side.

Service

8.0

Service was one of the better aspects of my stay. The staff went out of their way to assist me, especially when it came to hailing taxis in the rain, which I really appreciated. They were always polite and made me feel welcome.

Location

7.0

The hotel is perfectly situated across from the beautiful Lingering Garden and only a short walk from Jiezhuanglv Temple. While I enjoyed the charm of the area, it’s a bit far from the main shopping districts, requiring a taxi for longer outings, which can add up if you're not careful.

Dining

7.0

I appreciated the breakfast spread, which featured a good mix of hot and cold options alongside fresh fruit. It definitely surpassed a typical continental breakfast, though it wasn’t amazing enough to rave about. Still, it was a satisfying way to start my day.

Facilities

6.0

The hotel had nice public areas, including gardens and water features, which added to its charm. However, the pool was closed during my stay, which was disappointing since I had hoped to use it. The hotel also offered basic services like dry cleaning and internet access in the lobby.

Breakfast had a decent mix of Western and Chinese options, though I found the selection a bit limited. The experience was further marred by noise from families with children, which made it less enjoyable.

I had an average stay at Garden Hotel. the location was quite convenient near Lingering Garden, but the service left something to be desired. The room was comfortable, albeit slightly aged. The beautiful garden on-site was a definite highlight, providing a peaceful atmosphere during my visit.

Rooms

The room was clean and large, making it pleasant to sleep in. though the carpeting showed signs of age. It didn't have a stunning view, which was a bit disappointing.

Service

Service was hit or miss. while I encountered some helpful staff, others seemed overwhelmed and lacked public relations skills. The front desk struggled with booking info, relying on paper records.

Location

The location was great. just a short walk to Lingering Garden and near a bus stop. However, I couldn't fully enjoy the garden due to maintenance issues and the weather.

The Garden Hotel in Suzhou boasts a lovely ambiance with a garden theme and a scenic canal view. though the rooms could use some updates. The location is fantastic, being right across from the famous Lingering Garden, and offers convenient access to various tourist spots. While the breakfast buffet provides a good selection, the room cleanliness and some odd smells left something to be desired.

Rooms

The rooms were decent-sized and generally clean, but I encountered a strange smell upon arrival, likely from an air freshener. I found the bed to be quite firm and the furniture somewhat dated.

Service

The staff was very friendly and helpful, assisting me with directions and taxi arrangements. However, when I requested a room change due to the smell, they suggested I simply open a window instead.
