We stayed one night at the Pingjing Lodge in early January and then moved to the Pan Pacific Suzhou, which is a 5 star hotel that charged less (booked via Hotels.com) than we paid at the Pingjiang Lodge.

When we left to go to the train station, they told us to just walk down the street and haul a taxi. They forgot... More

We stayed here with our two daughters (6 and 12 year old) at the recommendation of a friend. It is a fine place to stay. It is set up as a Qing Dynasty mansion, with very comfortable and large rooms.
