Top hotels in Xitang
Pan Pacific Suzhou
這裡景色優美，房間整潔乾淨。地點緊鄰盤門景區，住客可以免費入盤門景區參觀。雖然距離許多知名景點如拙政園、平江路等有段距離，但飯店前面就是公車站，有公車可以直接到達那些景區，相當方便 入住期間我們的客房服務員是圣书扣女士，我們在某一天的中午回去時遇到她，她非常熱情，也仔細確認我們是否還有其他需要，但同時她也細心的確認我們的身分、確認我們是否確實就是這個房間的住客，這讓我感到更加放心。我不知道圣女士是否看的到這個評論，但我們很感謝她的服務

It was so nice and service was amazing. Only complaint was that the room lighting was very dim. Hard to get good lighting in front of the mirrors and sometimes hard to see when I needed to do work
