“A mixed experience”

This hotel is in the part of Hangzhou that the government is now trying to expand. Thus it is not really near anything. You can't walk to stores or restaurants, and it is across town from West Lake, which is stunning. That being said, the views from the hotel of the river are good, if you can see through the smog. The staff are quite gracious. They speak little English, but the gentleman at the front desk had a phone with a translation program. He had me type in my questions, and then he looked at the translation. Then he typed his answer in Chinese and showed me the translation. It worked quite well. The beds are hard; they are just box springs. Our room had a dirty carpet, and mold on the shower curtain. It was very humid in Hangzhou when we were there, thus the mold. In general, hotels in China do not have good air conditioning. My experience is that you cannot get the room temperature much below 80 degrees. Even when you set it to max, it never cools down that far. (This was typical in all the hotels we stayed in.) The best thing in this hotel is the BREAKFAST! It is up on a high floor, and you get a 360 degree view There is a very big variety of foods. The kids in our group especially enjoyed that they could get ice cream! (I admit, I enjoyed it too. The Red Bean Chestnut is so good!) They had sodas and beer in the cooler that you could take back to your room! I would return to this hotel for the breakfast alone.

“Přátelský personál, ale hotel potřebuje spoustu vylepšení”

Zůstal jsem v tomto hotelu 5 dní v práci. Sama jsem si to nezarezervovala, rezervoval si ji zaměstnanec v Hangzhou. Tento hotel není vhodný pro cizince. Zaměstnanci mluví velmi málo anglicky, jsou velmi přátelští a snaží se pomoci, ale jazyková bariéra je příliš velká na to, aby se ignorovala. Obje… Více

Zůstal jsem v tomto hotelu 5 dní v práci. Sama jsem si to nezarezervovala, rezervoval si ji zaměstnanec v Hangzhou. Tento hotel není vhodný pro cizince. Zaměstnanci mluví velmi málo anglicky, jsou velmi přátelští a snaží se pomoci, ale jazyková bariéra je příliš velká na to, aby se ignorovala. Objednávání pokojové služby je problém, při snídani je obtížné komunikovat. V blízkosti není žádný metro ani obchod. Nábytek je zastaralý, hosté rozhodně kouří ve svých pokojích. Ventilací jsem to cítil. Ne ve svých pokojích, ale také na chodbách, ve výtahu. Existuje spousta kulturních exponátů, ale žádný anglický popis. Umění a řemesla jsou krásné, ale bohužel netuší, co jsou. WiFi je v pořádku, špičkové časy jsou velmi pomalé. Zaměstnanci se snaží potěšit své hosty, usmívají se po celou dobu a jsou přátelští, ale rozhodně potřebují více anglicky mluvícího personálu, zejména na recepci. Místnosti by mohly být čistší. Koberce jsou páchnoucí, plísně ve sprše. Vzhledem k tomu, jak je Hangzhou horký a vlhký, si myslím, že plíseň je nevyhnutelná.

Had a chance to stay at the hotel for 3 nights. The first thing you notice is the beautiful decor, expansive lobby and clean facilities. The checkin is fine and english is a bit of an issue, but they do try and it is without a hitch. As far as the rooms, It was better than expected. The bed was comfortable and a little hard, but that's the way I like it so it was perfect. The view was terrific as everywhere around you can't go wrong. The bathroom was clean and had al the amenities that you would need from a full service hotel and really can't complain at all about the rooms, decor, bathrooms, closet space or anything else. The complimentary breakfast on the top floor was great! It was a very good mix of a chinese buffet with a westerners palette. So everything was good, even though I had to find the egg/omelete station. Overall cannot complain about the breakfast either. So why the average rating.... SMOKE! Even though it was a non-smoking room, the smell of smoke is everywhere... The room does have a window that opens, so I was able to air out the room, but took a couple of days. The maid did come and spray the room, but that's just masking the issue. I am at odds with myself because of this. I would have rated this about a 4.5 if it weren't for that one issue. Would I stay again? Most likely, as everywhere you go, I assume it will be about the same. They are notorious for smoking and I guess I get spoiled with the laws in the states with smoking in hotels...
