Hotels near Zhonglou, Changzhou

The rooms were clean and the service was warm and welcoming. I especially appreciated the thoughtful touch of having a bench in the elevator. Breakfast was plentiful, and the dinner buffet offered a great variety of dishes. There's a dedicated underground parking garage, making it super convenient to get to the city's attractions. Plus, having a RT-Mart supermarket right next door was really handy for shopping.

Staying for two nights was so relaxing! The lakeside hot spring tickets for two: Soaking in the hot springs at night was very atmospheric. We prepared our swimsuits beforehand; the hot springs have changing rooms, but we changed in our room, put on our robes, and headed over. Each hot spring had a water temperature display, and there were mugwort, carnation, and traditional Chinese medicine pools. After soaking for a while, we felt so comfortable, slightly sweaty, and warm all over. You should definitely try the hotel's casserole fish head. Our butler service was very warm and attentive. I personally think the hotel breakfast is on par with a five-star hotel. While it doesn't have as much variety as a five-star, it has everything you need. The room facilities are a bit dated. We went to Nanshan Bamboo Sea. The package with a meal was the most cost-effective. A shuttle bus takes you to the entrance. You walk a bit, then take a one-way mini-train. You can either take the cable car to the mountaintop first or the ground cable car to the panda house first. Both the cable car and ground cable car tickets are round trip. If you're tired on the way back, just buy a one-way mini-train ticket. If you still have energy, you can walk, and you'll pass by the Little Goose Park to watch a show. The whole trip took about 4 hours. After leaving, we ate the meal included in the package – you can choose between a hot pot restaurant or a fish head restaurant. We chose hot pot, and the two pots were more than enough for two people. Parking was 15 for one visit.

The lake view from the room is great, and while the facilities are a bit old, they are very clean. There are plenty of activities for all ages and seasons, making a three-day, two-night stay perfect. The hotel staff are all warm and polite and interact well with children. The hot springs are a highlight, with over thirty open, so it never feels crowded, and there are many staff members attending to them. However, the Fisherman's Wharf restaurant was a huge disappointment. A la carte options are expensive, and the set menus are limited, too salty, and the bamboo shoots were tough and unappetizing. It's definitely not suitable for two adults and one child; the only decent thing on the set menu was a fried fish roll. Furthermore, the service was abysmal. No one greeted us upon entering, and after our meal, no one asked for feedback, offered a small snack, or called a shuttle. There was absolutely no service to speak of, a stark contrast to the Hong Kong-style restaurants we've experienced. My rating is for the hotel; if it were just for Fisherman's Wharf, I'd give it only one star for the ambiance.

We booked a private family room, and the housekeeper, Ms. Zhou, checked us in and took us to the guest room. The room has a large bed and a small bed. The bathing pool is in the yard. If you need to soak in the hot spring, just tell Ms. Zhou and she will happily come over and help fill the hot spring water. She is a very nice person. I really like her. No. I had to go to the public hot springs to soak with others, it was very comfortable. I also went to Nanshan Bamboo Sea. The air was very good. I had a very good accommodation experience this time. I will go there often in the future!

The rooms are very clean, and the service is excellent. The environment is beautiful; you can see the stunning Taihu Lake right outside your window. The breakfast buffet offers a wide variety of options. It's a hotel highly recommended for a family trip.

Food: Breakfast was varied, with western，asian and local. We had Dinner at the main buiding using ******* set menu and it was a good deal, as the 2 person deal is enough to feed 4 and tasted quite delicious. Location: it is a resort so you are going to spend most of the time on the resort ground. We booked 3 day 2 night and the time was enough to explore everything. Nice scenery. Amenities: only a few activities were covered in our package so it will depend on your package. The package was confusing and we didnt know exactly all the activities that were free or cost extra. The reception on check in should have explained all of this upon check in, but maybe they are not trained, or maybe because our accomadation at pinecone is considered 4 star so they used lower quality staff. All the free stuff are a bit lame and service was poor except for the craft lady who actually showed us a wechat app for the hotel where free activity voucher can be found. They outsourced the activity area so that is really poor decision as it hurts the brand image due to service levels. For hotel staff, thumbs up to the shuttle ladies, who you call to get from one place to another. They are prompt and speedy. Service: check in staff was professional but not warm. As mentioned, the activity area is outsourced so most staff are cold and seemed rude, except for the craft lady who was actually decent. But considering this resort and the type of guest, i would consider this really bad. Cleaniness: the room is very clean, a bit worn (see pics of wall), but it feels quite clean.

I was so shocked by how big my room was for such a cheap price! The bed was really comfortable and the bathroom facilities were great. Very clean. The staff don’t speak English but it’s no problem as we could use translation apps. They helped me to order food on the delivery app. The location is quite convenient as it’s near to a metro station. I was really pleasantly surprised by this hotel and I would definitely stay here again!

First thing you need to know is it is clean. Sheets changed. Room is clean. Comes with toothbrush, soap, water kettle, outlets to charge, and a desk. The hotel has great amenities. The best part about it is the washing machine and dryer. 2 dryers. 3 washing machines. No issues with hot water. You can take a long shower with no issues. I'm a traveler with preference for only non smoking rooms or rooms that don't smell like it. I turn in the air conditioning to see if it has any smoke smell coming from it. My first room smelled like smoke but they were able to change me to another room without issues. This is probably the best value hotel for a single room. The cost benefits are even better if you split it with someone else. I had two room cards so I left the air conditioning on all the time. It was nice. The middle rooms don't have a window so a shower may make your room humid. The area around it is very great. There is a bunch of local food places and it's only locals not tourist. The best place is a noodle shop nearby. Order a large beef noodle soup for 14 yuan and get a free noodle refill. Be sure to turn on the exhaust when showering and you'll have to issues.

The room is very good, Xiaodu control, the TV is very large, the room is very clean, electric heated toilet, electric curtains, Xiangyang Bridge is nearby, the scenery is very good, 2 kilometers away is Bibo Lake Park, the scenery is good, but there is no vegetarian food for breakfast, good reviews. The front desk lady has a good attitude and is very beautiful 😃

Facilities: Comprehensive, especially the clothes hanger under the air conditioner. Cleanliness: Fairly good. Always bring your own alcohol wipes and other items to clean up after going out. Bedding was immaculate. Service: From the front desk check-in to the floor cleaning, I was very satisfied. Environment: While unassuming on the outside, the interior is absolutely stunning! The elevator card swipe is reassuring. I didn't expect the included breakfast. While not very substantial, the eggs and porridge were generally satisfactory.
