Jiangnan in the Rain | Suzhou Changyuan Youxiong Hotel
As a Jiangsu native, this was my first time experiencing a garden hotel
I went to Suzhou with my daughter to attend an event and thought we could do some sightseeing while we were there
The most representative thing about Suzhou is its gardens
I didn't want to just take a quick look
After doing some research, I found that Changyuan Youxiong was the most suitable for our needs and aesthetic
We booked two nights and arrived just before dark
After resting for a while
The butler took us on a tour of the garden
They introduced the history of the garden and some of the services
The room was prepared with hot sago and fruit
The room layout was also very comfortable
The concierge service was also very good, it felt like home
Suzhou Changyuan is a classical garden building built in the late Qing Dynasty
The butler said that there are many small gardens in Suzhou
If you like gardens, you can also visit Lingering Garden
Of course, if you don't stay at Changyuan
You can also make a reservation to visit (it is said to be the most difficult garden to book in Suzhou)
During our stay, the temperature was a bit low, but it was very comfortable indoors. There was underfloor heating and the room was big enough. It was a bit cold in the garden, but it was also beautiful in a different way. I hadn't experienced the cold for a long time, but I thought it was nice. It was cloudy, so I couldn't take any photos with light and shadow
But the cool atmosphere was also very charming
