The price was a bargain for such a gorgeous 4-star hotel. It's about 15-20 min taxi ride from the Suzhou train station, 5 min to the Humble Administrator Garden and Suzhou Museum. Taxi drivers have a hard time finding the place though, especially if you don't know the name of the hotel in Chinese. So it might be good to... More

Superb location for shoppers! Pretty near to all attractions, pleasant garden view... love the Chinese style decor.. Just one minus point, I was told by the receptionist that lobby is the only place with free wifi access. But from the reviews i read, they do have wireless router if we ask for it????? Overall, the hotel is good..definitely worth recommending... More

Located in Lindun road, busy with tourists and attractions are all nearby with some within walking distance. Metro is just nearby to travel to further destinations.

Stayed here with my wife and my parents early April. Service - Poor front desk service. They wouldn't look at you when they are talking because they are too busy looking at the computer screen and doing their own things. When asking questions about local things such as trains, locations, they either didn't know or answered hastily with an attitude... More

This hotel is very nice. Very good quality for the price. The service is very efficient. The rooms are well-decorated (Chinese style). The Gardens are beautiful. The location is convenient, in the old Suzhou, not so far from the railway station.

Suzhou Garden View Hotel is a small boutique hotel (Chinese style) located in the Old City and we highly rcommend it for the following reasons: 1) Excellent location near attractions, shopping and Dining facilities. Popular Songhelou Restaurant is  located one street away (Shantang Road). 2) Booked Deluxe room through Ctrip website at a good rate. Ctrip service is excellent. 3) Deluxe... More

We paid 430 RMB per night for a normal (smallish double room), without breakfast which was a bit expensive given the quality of the room (tiny bathroom). The room was quiet though, and the courtyards looked lovely, it's worth having breakfast (average) in the dining hall just to enjoy the view. The hotel is right in the centre of town,... More

This hotel is clean and comfortable and it's right next to the pedestrianised downtown area, so there's plenty of everything right on the doorstep. It's a bit of a boutique hotel, with courtyards done like traditional Chinese gardens and so forth. The bar is basically non-existent, but thee Are plenty of places right around the corner. Best of all, it... More

The hotel is within walking distance to shops and restaurant and some tourist sites. Rooms are small but okay for the 2 of us. Clean and tidy also. The courtyard is quite nice set in a Chinese garden style. Not overly cheap, probably cheaper if you booked ahead on the Internet. staff minimal English. Don't book the tour they have... More
