Suzhou Hotels with Private Pools

"The most satisfying part of my trip to Suzhou was staying at Front Hall Back Yard B&B! It's right in the heart of the Pingjiang Road scenic area, and as soon as you step out, you're greeted by canals, bridges, and gondolas. The room was clean and comfortable, but my favorite spot was the balcony – sitting there with a cup of tea, watching the river, truly captured the essence of Jiangnan. It was also incredibly convenient to walk to the Humble Administrator's Garden and the Suzhou Museum. I'll definitely choose to stay here again on my next visit to Suzhou!"

"My friend drove me here, and we stayed for one night. **Service:** Very friendly and welcoming. **Room Amenities:** Well-equipped and comprehensive. **Breakfast:** At RMB 88 per person, it felt a bit pricey. While it offered both Chinese and Western options, the selection wasn't extensive. I particularly enjoyed the noodles with their toppings and the bread with bacon. However, I wasn't a fan of the *shaomai* or dumplings. Coffee, tea, soy milk, and milk were available. **WiFi:** Strong signal. **Bed:** Comfortable. **Restaurant:** Offers both Western and Chinese cuisine. Note that ordering takeaway food to the hotel was generally expensive, with KFC being the only exception offering reasonable prices. **Room View:** Lake view. **Location/Transportation:** A car is essential as public transportation is not convenient. They offer free parking and EV charging stations. I had to walk to Zhouzhuang Ancient Town at 5:30 AM because I couldn't find a taxi. It took less than an hour, and I even managed to snap some sunrise photos along the way. **Swimming Pool:** Didn't see one. **Gym:** Couldn't locate one. Complimentary Hanfu rental is a nice touch. To continue attracting guests and truly thrive, the hotel needs to invest more effort, particularly in enhancing and maintaining the surrounding environment and facilities. I also made sure to tidy up and clean the room before checking out."

"Come to Suzhou Dongshan Island with my husband and discover a treasure homestay! The environment is elegant and pleasant. It is suitable for relaxing. The terrace of the room overlooks Taihu Lake. It is clean and tidy. The room type is also good. The layout is very comfortable. The marble bathroom decoration facilities are complete. The terrace on the second floor of the small courtyard can drink tea and chat. There is a book bar on the first floor. By the way, at night. I ate the Taihu crab and white fish made by the boss at the homestay. The meat is delicious! Don't be too delicious! Husband is also very satisfied. I don't want to leave at all."
