albergo nella provincia di Jiangsu, Cina

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. 

Ho prenotato una camera per il viaggio dei miei figli e la stanza era esattamente come nelle foto: pulita e ordinata. La posizione all'interno della città vecchia è comodissima. Il proprietario è stato molto gentile e attento, fornendoci una mappa con un itinerario di visita ben dettagliato che ci ha fatto risparmiare un sacco di tempo. Al momento del check-out ci ha anche offerto dei dolcetti, è stato davvero premuroso. Eccellente!

It was one of my best stay experiences. I actually had trouble finding the location as the map didn't give me the proper entrance location but nearby one. (plus it was night and I am not good at locating; The gate is facing the stream so try to follow the stream and it wont be hard to find it in fact) Even it was late around midnight but the owner waited for me. The house is pretty cozy and always kept clean. The room is big enough for solo traveller like me, even with budget price. The water was hot enough and pressure was good too. And the heating and cooling system was all equipped pretty perfect. The room was always so greatly tended everyday I was deeply impressed. Possibly can be noisy if there are other guests, considering the way the room faces but in my case it was by myself while staying so no trouble at all. And it is not far from the famous lake, and you can find various kinds of diners, including foot massage shops and fruit sellers. There was some lotus cafe+diner nearby, and it is worth giving it a try. And a takeout shop for roasted goose as well. It was pretty good. (For Huaiyang cuisine, Damao was a good choice, though not that close from my stay. Think It must be a chain only located within Yangzhou. Food was worth the travel.) For sightseeing, the Canal museum is a must, along with the Lake and Dongguan district. But it requires a reservation in advance. Better check it first, to save useless trip like I had ; The host were so kind that when I asked where I can buy a new carrier when it was broken on the way, she was just willing to give me one she owned. I tried at least pay some but she refused kindly even with my persistency. Cannot thank her enough for saving all my annoyance. And she also tended with my laundry as well. Get to thank her again for her hospitality. Wish I could stay there again if I visit there again.

Durante questa rara vacanza, puoi camminare lungo la calda strada di pietra blu, attraversare il vicolo della pioggia di Dai Wangshu, aprire lo stretto cancello della legna da ardere e arrivare alle tracce di fiori nel cuore della vivace città. C'è un cortile nella casa, con un vecchio pozzo, diversi mazzi di fiori e una piccola scena di lumache nel cortile. Quando la primavera è calda e i fiori sbocciano, sotto l'albero viene allestita una tavola, con cibo e vino semplici, e un sorso di vino di riso oppure ci si alza presto per salutare il gattino sulla grondaia, dargli da mangiare, sedersi; nel cortile e bevi una tazza di tè Mingqian. C'è una casa nel cortile con mattoni blu e piastrelle nere. La struttura interna è tradizionale e le dotazioni sono complete: la TV Xiaomi può proiettare lo schermo, quello che preferisco è il lettore CD Bose ormai fuori catalogo, e lo sceglierò i CD della mia collezione e li porto lì per riascoltarli; nel pomeriggio, mi siederò nella stanza di fronte al cortile, leggerò nello studio quando sarò stanco: guarderò il glicine a Xibao Xuan, bevrò Yue Banqiu nella sala notizie, ascolta le tranquille canzoni popolari nello Yangying Huotang e l'entusiasta musica rock la sera acquista la bellissima Nanhong a Hua Sheng Ji, visita varie librerie e sale da tè; Che gioia! ! !

Servizi: Esattamente come mostrato nelle foto. Nuovissimo. Molto soddisfatto. Ha tre piani e io ho soggiornato all'ultimo piano, che era tranquillo e indisturbato. Pulizia: Pulito e confortevole, molto soddisfacente. Ambiente: 1. A poche decine di metri dalla biglietteria della Shen Hall, molto comodo. 2. Il piccolo cortile di fronte al B&B è bellissimo, perfetto per scattare foto e fare il check-in. Servizio: Ho inviato la posizione del taxi e sono arrivato direttamente. Riepilogo: Questo B&B è stato fantastico. Ci tornerò la prossima volta che visiterò Zhouzhuang!

Oh mio Dio! Questa è una delle migliori locande con vista sul fiume in cui abbiamo soggiornato. Il proprietario è stato gentilissimo. Le camere sono pulitissime e la parte migliore è la zona salotto rialzata con tatami. Qui si può godere di un momento di tranquillità, ammirando il piccolo canale e rilassandosi completamente. Siamo rimasti due notti, ma non sono state sufficienti. La posizione è superba! Torneremo sicuramente alla Wanhe Riverview Inn. Un ringraziamento speciale al proprietario, un uomo umile che si è presentato come Siao Ku. Grazie, Siao Ku.

Hotel is on Pishi Street, iconic cobbled stones street that is for shopping and photo taking. Hotel staff called the day before checking in, and pulled us into a wechat group that tells us the landmark to take car to, what to do if we drive, and some recommendations for food if we need. They also ask if we have a ETA so that they know and are ready for us. When we reached, their staff brought me to my room, helped me carry my box luggage up to the 2nd floor of the side alley. He helped me set up the aircon (it was originally set to heater mode) and also set up wifi. There is water provided in the fridge at lobby. Apparently the lobby will be locked after 10.30pm and have to access from small side glass door by keycard. Cute and furry cats in the lobby. They provided fruits on the 1st day of stay. Place is convenient and very clean. They provided facial products and even eye masks. Very well put together place and totally justify the price you pay. We just have to wechat them and they will immediately respond. Upon check out, the girl at the counter helped me bring down my heavy luggage again. I had some issues with the lock of the door the 2nd day and they immediately rectified it, and also switched me to a next door room. Thank you to the young chap and young girl at lobby for all the helpful help. Thank you for the lovely stay. Will recommend u to friends if they ask for recs.

L'hotel si trova nel centro storico, in stile antico. La posizione è facile da trovare. C'è anche qualcuno che viene a prendervi. Il servizio è molto attento ed entusiasta. C'è anche un cortile interno. L'ambiente è molto bello. La camera è arredata in stile antico ed è molto pulita. Anche i servizi sono ottimi. È stato un bel viaggio. Sceglierei questo hotel la prossima volta.

This is the second time we stay at this hotel within 4 months time. The couple host still providing superb facilities, cleanliness and hospitality. Fantastic location within walking distance to Humble administrator garden, many food seller surrounding. The room si clean and spacious with private sauna machine available in the room. This hotel will always be our favourite stay if we visit Suzhou.

Ottimo posticino dove soggiornare. Ho prenotato la camera con balcone vista. Mi è piaciuto sedermi sulle sedie al mattino e alla sera. La zanzariera attorno al letto è perfetta per una buona notte di sonno. Nel complesso mi piacerebbe tornarci di nuovo. Nessun problema con la consegna del cibo al parco. Il personale dell'hotel è stato disponibile nell'organizzare il servizio taxi per la stazione di Oriental Land (100 RMB). Mi sono goduto i negozi e le tante cose da fare in un paio di giorni se ti piace prenderti il ​​tuo tempo passeggiando tranquillamente. Ho anche viaggiato verso i canali di Suzhou vicino a Qilishantang e Pingjiang che sono fantastici.
