"After a twenty-day trip through Yunnan, I stopped in Shijiazhuang for a night on my way back to Beijing. I booked the Hilton because I was having dinner with a friend at China House on the second floor of the hotel.
The hotel lobby is on the 31st floor, so you have to check in there first, and then take another elevator up to the 40-something floor for your room. This back-and-forth can be a bit inconvenient, especially when ordering takeout. You either have to pick it up yourself or wait for hotel staff to deliver it, as external deliveries aren't allowed in, and there don't seem to be any robots either.
Overall, the hotel environment is quite good. Being on a high floor, you get nice city views.
The toilet in the room isn't automatic.
The shower water pressure was good, and the room was quite spacious.
All the drinks and water in the fridge are chargeable. There's a 600 RMB deposit required per room upon check-in, which is refunded to your original payment method upon checkout. Parking is free in the underground garage.
There's a shopping mall nearby.
The hotel is about 7 kilometers from Shijiazhuang Station, roughly a 20-minute car ride."
