4-Star Hotels in Shaoxing

Very satisfied with my stay here, right inside Luzhen. You step out to quaint bridges and flowing water, and it's so peaceful to walk around early in the morning. The room was exquisite, and the butler was very responsive to any issues. The room smelled lovely, and the bathroom was spotless, even with a diffuser. Most importantly, the bar area allowed for brewing tea, and they provided disposable liners for the kettle, which felt very modern and hygienic. My only minor suggestion would be to add a handle to the bathtub for safety.

Skipped the Chinese New Year crowds and checked in on Lantern Festival, so it was wonderfully quiet and uncrowded. Even though it's in the city center, it doesn't feel old, cramped, or damp at all. From the exterior to the rooms, every detail is excellent. The biggest surprise was how comfortable the bedding was; it was clean, soft, and I had a great night's sleep. Woke up feeling great in my back, waist, and neck – I'm seriously considering getting one of those pillows! As I was leaving, I checked the bed for anything I might have forgotten and found the duvet was still warm. It's also incredibly lightweight yet super insulating. The owner really put thought into their product selection. Even on a gloomy morning, I saw the cleaning staff meticulously tidying up the rooms, working up a sweat. I'd definitely recommend this place to friends and would happily stay here again if I get the chance. It's also super convenient for walking or cycling to nearby attractions, and there's a bakery and a popular cafe right outside the door, so you can easily enjoy them.

The room was spotless and the bedding was comfortable. I especially loved that the bath towels were individually packaged – a great touch! The service was just right, and it was so nice to enjoy a quiet bowl of congee late at night. Breakfast was well-balanced and tasty. The laundry room was also clean and well-organized.

The room was decent, but the biggest issue was the toilet giving off a bad smell. I didn't bother reporting it to the front desk for reasons I'll explain below. There were two washing machines and two dryers; however, the dryers were quite weak and slow. Breakfast was excellent, though, with dishes like hairtail, drunken crab claws, and shrimp tempura. Now, for the downsides. The hotel shares its lobby with an esports hotel, which occupies the lower floors. The esports hotel's sign was even larger than the Mingting's, making me think I'd walked into the wrong place. The front desk attendant was wearing plain clothes, which confused me – is this even a legitimate hotel? I then realized the in-room phone was just for show; you had to call the front desk from an external line. That's why I didn't bother mentioning the toilet issue. It seems this hotel has a complete lack of management. I booked this place to see the cherry blossoms at Guazhu Lake East Bank Park, only to find out it's actually closer to Guazhu Lake West Bank Park. It was over two kilometers to walk, and I ended up needing a taxi to get there and back, making the location pointless. I definitely booked the wrong hotel.

This establishment is not only exceptional but also incredibly convenient for all tourists. Every attraction is within walking distance, and if you feel like taking a stroll behind the hotel, you will find Jishan Park, which connects to various tourist spots. The hotel is extremely cozy, making you feel right at home. Moreover, the serene environment, surrounded by trees and ancient buildings, makes this hotel the top choice. The rooms are very comfortable, and Puwei even upgraded our room. We enjoyed afternoon tea right at our doorstep. However, what truly sets this hotel apart is the exceptional service, especially from Puwei. He is not only incredibly helpful but also guided us through all the surrounding itineraries. He even picked us up from the car park and assisted with our luggage, which was greatly appreciated due to the uneven roads. Overall, this trip has been thoroughly enjoyable, despite Shaoxing not being fully developed for international tourists yet. It is a great place to escape the hustle and bustle of city life.

The hotel's surroundings are really nice, with beautiful views from the window. There are plenty of dining options nearby, and it's not far from various attractions, making it very convenient to get around by taxi. The breakfast offers a good variety and is quite decent. The facilities seem a bit old but are very clean, offering good value for money.

I stayed for two days. The hotel facilities were good and quite new. However, the food delivery robot was broken and never delivered. I complained many times, but the hotel staff did nothing; I always had to go downstairs to pick it up myself. I specifically asked them to let me know when the food arrived or to bring it up, but there was absolutely no service. When I questioned them, they just apologized and said they tried their best. They didn't clean the room, didn't take out the trash, and didn't replace the bath towels or hand towels. I had a great time in Shangyu, but the hotel service was the only downside.

The hotel staff didn't speak any English at all, but they were quite helpful. The room itself wasn't cleaned and there was clearly visible dirt on the carpet, we also got used, dirty and smelly hotel slippers - I asked the staff by using translator to replace it and clean our room because it wasn't cleaned, the promised to do this. They changed our slippers to new ones but the carpet wasn't vacuumed properly again. Apart from that it was fine. Breakfast was nice, rooms are spacious. The check-in and check-out procedure is time consuming because the staff doesn't know English and their procedures are aged - they copied my whole passport with all the previous trips to China and produced a lot of paper in the process for no reason. The check-out was done and we were asked to wait (to check if we used mini bar or something), but no one told us afterwards we can go so we waited for 5 minutes for no reason, I finally asked if we can go and only then the receptionist said yes xD

The breakfast was light and appetizing. For late-night snacks, the Zhao Xiaozui Lobster nearby is delicious. Mingzhu Square is directly connected to Lu Xun's Former Residence by subway. Xiao Hua was very polite and helpful. Thumbs up!

Facilities: It's an old hotel that's been around for a long time, so the facilities are quite outdated. The air conditioning unit was a twist-knob style, which I'd never seen before and found quite novel. Luckily, the AC cooling effect was still very good. Cleanliness: It looked alright, but it was very humid. The sheets and blankets felt damp, and there was a musty smell when sleeping at night. Environment: The hotel is right next to the fabric market, which is very convenient. Service: The front desk staff were very nice and friendly. However, the cleaning lady kept rushing us. We already had our luggage and were about to leave. Just before I used the restroom one last time, she started knocking to come in and clean. As soon as I finished, she knocked again wanting to come in, and then just swiped her card and let herself in. Couldn't she wait even a minute? It was truly speechless; she made us so flustered that I almost forgot my phone and had to go back for it.
