Kunshan Inns

The bedding is comfortable, the south facing the river sun room, the feeling of the pillow river people, getting up in the morning, the birds and flowers are fragrant, hidden in the treasure homestay in the countryside! The boss contacted me in advance to remind me that booking tickets online is more favorable, and also sent a direct location to the parking lot. The staff at the hotel is very attentive! Arrived in the afternoon to check in, 10 minutes drive to Zhouzhuang Ancient Town, very convenient.

Come to Suzhou with my girlfriend, it can be said that the location, homestay environment, and service attitude are all comfortable. Originally planned to go to Zhouzhuang to play, just happened to be next to Zhouzhuang Scenic Area, walk about 5 minutes, wash in the evening to go shopping on the street to see the night view is quite good, drive out and come back to have a parking space, it is a solution to the car do not know where to stop the problem. There is also a supermarket when you go out. It is quite convenient to buy something to cushion your hunger on the road. There is also a new decoration of the homestay. It should be newly opened, but all aspects are unexpectedly satisfactory to us. Yes, I wish the boss a prosperous business.

It's just a few steps from the ticket gate of Zhouzhuang Ancient Archway. The location is quite good. The whole homestay is the type I like. Every window and tile is a beautiful view. Next door is Maokong, a place to buy souvenirs and stamp. The boss is very enthusiastic. He came to the door to pick me up and recommended a delicious restaurant. The price-performance ratio is very high. It's very good to be quiet in the bustling ancient town.

I arrived in pouring rain. I thought I could walk to my hotel but it was impossible in the downpour. I didn’t want to bother any hotel owner.   I didn’t and still don’t  have an eSIM that can make local  call but thanks to Trip.com, there is a link that I could call the owner for free.  I didn’t advise the owners my arrival time so they were off running errands.  I called the owner to pick me up and thankfully he answered. He was busy but gracious enough to turn around and picked me up. It knew Zhouhuang requires a ticket but I didn’t know that no cars, nor motorcycles, nor bicycles are allowed. Without him I would have arrived the hotel easily.  I always like to meet the owners instead of employees . They were very helpful and answered all my questions. They are honest people who dedicate their  blood and sweat to their business. The owner even offered to walk me to the bus stop  to Suzhou which was my next destination.  This  operates two hotels with 9 in one and 6 in the other. The one that I stayed in with 9 rooms is in a  lively and busy area . Just outside the hotel is a restaurant and there are plenty of places to eat. Inside the hotel is a peaceful oasis where you won’t hear any noise. The location is the best. The other hotel is in a quieter neighborhood a few minutes away. Each of the 15 rooms has it’s own personality, is different and has its distinctive decoration. The owners said they decorated them themselves. I love the decoration and especially the lighting.  After you reserve a room, be sure to contact the owner for the exact address in case you want to arrive on your own. I think it is best to request the owner to take you there because he/she will lead you to the ticket booth to buy tickets. There are a number of bridges so heavy big luggages can be a bit of a challenge .  If you arrive after 5 pm, you can enter free of charge as no one is there to check your ticket. . But once you are inside, and if you choose to leave the area after 8 or 9 am until 5 pm, you have to pay to come back in. You can buy a one day or in my case 3 days pass.  Do check with the owner for up to date information.  The room was quite clean. There were hot water all the time. There were other guests during my stay but they were not noisy at all. I barely heard them. I slept very well during my 3 nights there.  Zhouhuang is really beautiful. There are many canals, bridges, boat rides, good food of all kinds. I had some of the best meals there. In fact , I ate in the same restaurant that serves dumpling twice. One night I had grill (BBQ) meat just outside the entrance for 4 yuans. .  There is decent size supermarket just outside the turnstile and not too far away is a much bigger supermarket. It was there where I bought half a Peking duck for only 32 yuans . The seller sliced the meat and separated the meat from  the bones. The bones he fried so it was crunchy.  It was delicious. There is a theater that offers performances. The night view is great. If you step out your room, you will be overwhelmed in a good sense by the exciting surroundings.  This hotel definitely is one of the best that I have ever stayed in. Look at the beautiful pictures and find one that you like.  I stayed only 3 nights and one of those days I went to Tongli. In my opinion, one should spend at least 2 to 3 full days in  Zhouhuang (and especially this hotel ) savor the ambience. I don’t think Tongli is worth the time because it was twice as expensive and there are not that many canals and boat rides. It is much quieter and has fewer things to see. . The worst is that the sightseeing places require you to show your ticket. After 2 places, I lost mine ticket and I  couldn’t get in the rest of the places. It is unnecessary to require proof of entrance because you can’t enter the area without a ticket. 

Traveling with a child to an ancient town, I compared many places on Ctrip and chose this one. The guesthouse is inside the ancient town, close to Shuangqiao Bridge. The room was clean and tidy, and the family room had a tatami mat and a large balcony with a rocking chair that my child loved. The owner and his wife were both very kind. There were three adults and one child in our group. I contacted the owner's wife in advance when we arrived. We parked our car in the free parking lot, and the owner picked us up in an electric cart. Because I had a sore leg and was limping, we ate two meals that the owner's restaurant prepared and brought to the guesthouse. We originally booked for one night, but neither the adults nor the child wanted to leave, so we stayed for another day. I'll definitely stay here again next time I visit.

The hotel is in a good location, right inside the scenic area. It is clean and tidy, the facilities are very new, the service attitude is very good, and the cost performance is very high. It is worth staying. I forgot to take pictures. The only small drawback is that it is a renovation of an old house in the ancient town. The floor leather looks a bit old, and I am cautious with mysophobia. However, the cost performance is very high, less than 100, which is not more extravagant in the ancient town. Thanks to the boss for his enthusiastic service.

The location is excellent, just next to Shen Wansan Shuiyu, very close to the entrance of the ancient town. The price is there, and the facilities, sanitation and environment need to be improved. The toilet setting of the single bathroom is not convenient, and the toilet can be sideways. The overall price is better.

The innkeeper is very welcoming. Most of the rooms in the inn have river views. It is very comfortable to watch the river view from the balcony at night. The room is clean and tidy. Overall, it is not rushed and you can experience the life in the water town.

The house was empty on my arrival, it was hard to find anyone and check-in. The room was too cold, it took long time to heat it up. The bed is wood hard (for me it was ok, but for some definitely might be a problem). On the good side, the room was clean and location was perfect - just outside the entrance to the antient town.

You could see someone had cleaned the room well before we came. The bathroom is old and has a lot of mold. Don’t look under the bed. Location was good, river view was minimal. Overall okay especially for the price.
