Alila Wuzhen: Once you've been, you'll never truly leave.

Every time I come to Wuzhen, I always choose to stay at Alila. I love the unique white walls and gray tiles of Jiangnan and the hotel's egret wetland.
Transportation: I've taken every mode of transportation imaginable to Wuzhen. If you take the high-speed train to Tongxiang, it's about a 50-minute, CNY 100 taxi ride from there. If possible, fly from your departure city to Hangzhou. There are buses near the terminal that go directly to the Wuzhen bus station, which is 1 km from the hotel. This time, I went after a business trip in Suzhou. I took a minibus from the Humble Administrator's Garden directly to the East Scenic Area for CNY 44 per person. It was so convenient! I also visited the East Scenic Area and then took a 2 km taxi ride to the hotel.
Hotel facilities: Each room has its own courtyard, perfect for enjoying a cigarette and a cup of coffee. The hotel is pet-friendly; just inform them when booking, and there's a cleaning fee. The restaurant offers a rich breakfast. The Waterside restaurant specializes in Cantonese cuisine and local specialties, with set menus available. The gym is open 24 hours a day, the swimming pool is heated, and you can book a singing bowl experience. The billiards room and bar have a strong design aesthetic, and you can enjoy the beautiful view of Alila lit up at night. The hotel offers Trip Moments services, which are great for taking photos.
The hotel staff are all lovely and make you feel like old friends. Most importantly, the rooms are comfortable and clean. It's a great place to stay with seniors and children.
