Find 2-Star Hotels in Suzhou

This stay exceeded my expectations. I had originally just planned to find a random place to sleep for a few hours since it was late at night. But this place wasn't just quiet; the surroundings were incredibly serene, and it was very clean. The owner even came out to meet me because she was worried I wouldn't find it. The room had a charming, antique feel and was well-equipped. While not luxurious, it had its own unique character. I actually came here from another hotel. I had booked a room at the eLong Anyun Hotel Zhoushan Store, which was twice the price of this guesthouse. But the room there was tiny, the facilities were run down, and the outdoor air conditioner unit made an unbearable amount of noise, making it impossible to sleep. They also refused to give me any refund. Since I couldn't sleep at all, I left and found this place. I'm so grateful this guesthouse saved my sleep!

This little traditional inn was absolutely delightful 1 night stay and the host family could not have been more kind and helpful. The owner helped us get our bags to and from the inn as everything in this area is pedestrianised and no vehicle is available for transporting luggage. You must register for entrance into the historical zone at the main office before you try to enter the security gates by showing your ID as is the case with all things in China. Don't let this put you off. Smoking indoors is common so ask for smoke free treatment. Highly recommended.

As someone from Inner Mongolia, I found this hotel to be excellent for around 300 yuan. I stayed for two nights, and the front desk staff even helped me with my luggage, which was a huge help as I'm pregnant and traveling alone. My experience here was great, and the service was really good. The room was clean and spacious. As for soundproofing, it's pretty much the same as any other hotel, but I didn't hear much noise during my stay, and my neighbors were quiet too. I asked housekeeping for two bottles of water, and they gave me four, which was a nice touch! The location is fantastic, very close to Zhuozheng Garden subway station, and also near Lion Grove Garden and Suzhou Museum. It's definitely worth recommending, and I felt very safe traveling alone and staying here. Five stars! 🌟

We stayed at Meet the Light Hotel for two nights whilst stopping in Suzhou. The hotel is a small run hotel, nestled amongst local businesses and restaurants and within a 5 min walk of Meixiang metro. Amenities were all provided and had everything needed from the usual hair dryer to disposable face towel, toilet seat cover, bathroom slippers, bath mat etc. The room was a good size and was clean and has air conditioning. Location is good allowing easy access to destinations with the Humble Administrators Garden and Suzhou Museum one stop away from Meixiang Metro and Ping A road nearby. The railway station is also within easy reach only a 3 stops away which allows easy access to HSR to other destinations. I cannot praise the front desk staff enough who were very welcoming and friendly and went above and beyond to assist with our needs. Staff helped with returning a power bank that was borrowed which we couldn’t find a drop off for and took their own scooter to drop it back for us. They also assisted with enquiries about the return of the deposit for the power bank. Not only that after a day trip away we managed to lose the hotel key card and was given a new card with out any fuss and the fee was waived for replacement of the room key. Staff were super nice and helpful and always helped with our luggage. Although the hotel is a small local hotel the service, location and friendly helpful staff more than make up for it. I recommend and would stay again.

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. 

Very good apartment in one of the skyscrapers in the Suzhou Industrial Park district. Despite our request to live on the higher floor with a lake view, we lived in the apartment on the 27th (from 47) floor with the city view. Probably, they just don't have lake-view apartments. However, there is another skyscraper in front of our building. Though, the room was perfect! Very clean, with home shoes, slippers, bath and face towels, teeth kits, kitchen (fridge, microwave, kettle). However, there was no cookware or dishware. We also needed an iron (as was promised in the room description), but the administrator brought us a steamer (which is even better) a few hours after the request. There are many convenient stores around, where you can buy even cooked food. In general, we recommend this place to everyone! Очень хорошие апартаменты в одном из небоскрёбов в районе Индустриального парка Сучжоу. Несмотря на нашу просьбу заселить нас максимально высоко с видом на озеро, нам досталась комната на 27 (из 47) этаже с видом на город. Возможно, у них просто нет комнат повыше с видом на озеро. Однако, прямо перед этим небосрёбом находится другой со стороны как раз озера. И всё равно, сама комната оказалась просто превосходной! Очень чистая, с домашними тапочками, душевыми сланцами, банными и лицевыми полотенцами, зубным набором, кухней (холодильник, микроволновка, чайник). Однако, не было ни посуды для приготовления, ни столовой посуды. Когда нам понадобился утюг (а он был обещан в описании номера), мы попросили администратора, и тот принёс отпариватель (что даже удобнее) через несколько часов. Вокруг здания много небольших магазинчиков, в том числе с готовой едой. В общем и целом, мы рекомендуем это место для всех путешественников!

I really had to write this review because my stay was incredibly uncomfortable. In all my years of traveling, this is the first time I've encountered such a poor environment. I'm not sure why all the other reviews are so positive; this is my genuine experience, and I'm not trying to be malicious. **Facilities:** First off, the air conditioning, whether on hot or cold, doesn't blow downwards. This single-story-converted-to-two-story layout is really bad. The AC unit is high up, so the air just circulates at the top. Downstairs, it's either freezing cold or stiflingly stuffy. The bathroom is particularly awful – dim, tiny, and with wooden walls painted red. After a shower, it emits a sour, foul, and irritating paint smell. I had to keep the door closed at night; it was truly nauseating. The toilet and fixtures are basic. For this price, even in tier-one, tier-three cities or remote guesthouses, outside of holidays, I'd expect smart home features throughout. **Hygiene:** The simple facilities and small space weren't the main issue. The real problem was how dirty the bed and the overall sleeping area were. The ceiling is from an old renovated house. When I got into bed, I found black debris on the sheets. The ceiling was moldy and covered in dust, with small bugs flying around. In the bathroom, a centipede crawled out, which startled me. I sprayed bug repellent all night and slept with the AC on and under the covers just to get some sleep. **Environment:** This is another major complaint. The windows and doors are practically nonexistent; the soundproofing is zero. I'd advise couples to speak quietly in their room because everything outside is clearly audible. I could clearly hear my neighbors coughing and talking. Early in the morning, people chatting and greeting each other in the courtyard were loud, and late at night, around 1 or 2 AM, I could hear people dragging their suitcases past, making a huge racket. It was incredibly noisy. **Service:** Objectively speaking, the service was okay. The auntie was very enthusiastic, answered all my questions, and was very thorough with everything. However, my main needs when staying at a hotel are showering and resting, and clearly, the core needs were not met. I only got about four hours of sleep that night; it was truly miserable.

Pucang Inn has a great location, near Pingjiang street , some good restaurants and station. Beyond imagination, there are full and good service and facilities. We are Vietnamese. Thank you for all. We had a wonderful holiday in Suzhou.

Our stay at this Suzhou apartment was nothing short of perfect! As first-time visitors, we were blown away by the incredible value. The location is great, just a quick 5-minute walk from the MRT, which made exploring the entire city effortless. The apartment itself was exactly as described: spotlessly clean, surprisingly spacious, and equipped with everything we needed. The highlight for us was the big projector screen; winding down each night with Chinese dramas was a unique and fun experience. Having a washer and dryer in the unit was also a huge convenience, allowing us to pack light. The true standout was our host. She was exceptionally helpful, providing a personal recommendations. Their tips truly made our trip special. We felt so at home and will 100% be recommending this gem to all our friends. Don’t hesitate—book this place for a seamless and memorable Suzhou adventure

Haha, I found a bargain. The check-in experience was great! The front desk staff is warm and thoughtful, the room is clean and tidy, the bedding is comfortable, the breakfast is rich in variety, and the location is very convenient. Highly recommended!
