FX Hotel Suzhou GuanQian - Suzhou (Jiangsu)

Excellent Hotel. Will stay again.

The hotel was very clean and comfortable. But our room was close to the elevator so we heard the elevator going up and down all day and night. It was quite loud. We also never figured out how to operate the thermostat so it was quite warm in our room.

Awesome hotel, very clean, and arguably one of the nicest (and largest) rooms I have ever stayed in...and I travel quite a bit. The hotel lobby is not so impressive, but this isn't some posh hotel in downtown Shanghai, so it was fine. Many restaurants inside hotel, and western food is available at the Windsor Cafe on floor 2 if that is what you prefer. Free breakfast came with my room package and was well worth the nominal upcharge. The only downside, is it is a bit far to walk to outside shopping and restaurants. The staff is super helpful and kind and they spoke enough English for me to get by without problem. I will stay here next time I visit Kunshan.

My only complaint is the same complaint I have about all Chinese hotels. The beds are Chinese style which means they are hard and it's like sleeping on concrete. When traveling in China, leave room in your bag for a small air mattress.

Our hotel stay was very pleasant. The hotel room was absolutely great, with fluffy pillows, modern looking-designs and functional gadgets. We thought that the restaurant needed some improvements in terms of quality of food both dinner and breakfast. The hotel lobby is very bright and attractive with Apple computers at your disposal. WiFi is conveniently provided in the hotel. About the location, you need to think carefully if you want to stay in this hotel if your primary purpose for going to Suzhou is to visit the gardens and the museum. Indeed, the hotel is located far away from these landmarks. From the hotel, you can either take a taxi but you can expect to pay 40 yuan or you can take the metro, conveniently located across the hotel. However, the eight stations to Lindun Lu will take you at least 15mins. Then, you are still at three kilometers from the site. From Lindun Lu to the site, you can look for a taxi, but may not always be easy to find one, or, take a bus or even take an expensive Rick shaw. A short ten minutes from the hotel, at Time Square Metro Station, is a newly built and modern mall which can be an alternative to the hotel restaurant. Overall, Modena delivers. Keep it up!!!
