Stay in Suzhou! The cat-loving Zen guesthouse next to Hanshan Temple is amazing



Who understands! If you want a poetic stay in Suzhou, choosing this place will save you taxi fare directly 😭
Maple Bridge Three Bears Guesthouse (Hanshan Temple Branch) is right next to the main entrance of Hanshan Temple, just a two- or three-minute walk away. Opening the window feels like you can hear the thousand-year-old bell tolls. In the evening, go to the canal to enjoy the breeze—it really feels like stepping into the poem "Night Mooring by Maple Bridge."

The details inside the guesthouse touched my heart:
✅ The room has a starry sky projector; turn it on before sleep to fill the ceiling with stars, so romantic you’ll want to stay in bed
✅ Three chubby cats in the lobby are super friendly; petting cats while watching shows heals all fatigue
✅ The new Chinese-style decor carries a scholarly atmosphere, and the Nordic-style bathroom is clean and spacious
✅ Floor heating + high-speed WiFi + complete toiletries, living here is more comfortable than at home

The owner and housekeeper really feel like friends! They turn on the air conditioning in advance, provide special slippers and toothbrushes for kids, and even write out clear local guides. In the morning, walk to the temple for vegetarian noodles; in the afternoon, bike to the Lingering Garden and Xiyuan Temple; in the evening, come back for a cup of rich coffee—this is the slow life in Suzhou~
