ゲゲスト今回の蘇州旅行で、金普トン竹輝ホテル(Kimpton Bamboo Grove Suzhou)のクールバルコニールームに宿泊しましたが、体験は完璧としか言いようがありませんでした。ホテルの設備とサービスにすっかり魅了されました。特に驚いたのは、きめ細やかなバトラーサービスです。チェックイン前の丁寧なリマインダーから、チェックイン時のスムーズな案内、滞在中の迅速な対応まで、バトラーのVickeyさんが終始細やかに行き届いたサービスを提供してくれました。地元の隠れた観光スポットやグルメをおすすめしてくれたり、ちょっとした要望にも素早く応じてくれたり、優しくてプロフェッショナルなサービスに心温まる思いでした。ホテルの設備も申し分ありません。蘇州式庭園風の共有スペースは、竹林に囲まれ、水景が巡らされており、雰囲気満点です。レクリエーションエリアやフィットネスエリアも完備されており、質の高さがうかがえます。古都の中心部に位置しながら、賑やかな中にも静けさがあり、蘇州の趣を感じながら、静かな休息の時間を楽しむことができます。朝食のコーヒーは淹れたてで、美しいラテアートも楽しめます。さらに、100%天然のココナッツジュースまで飲めるんです!設備の質もサービスレベルも最高で、蘇州での宿泊には間違いなくここが一番です。次回の蘇州旅行でも、ぜひここに泊まりたいと思います!
GGreat Traveller💯The lady who checked us in on Day 1 was very good, but the staff did not wear any name tag so I can’t remember her name. We found that she is the only one who was prompt and alert to guests needs. She helped upgrade us to a room that is more handicap friendly, as my husband was on crutches. She also helped us order takeaway using her private mobile phone when the restaurant on site was closed for lunch as we had no china mobile phone number to order take away.
💯The location is great by the lake and near the Tianmu Lake scenic park.
💯Outdoor hot spring staff on duty are attentive and polite. She even instructed the buggy driver to the nearest point to pick us when she noticed that my husband had difficulty walking. However the buggy driver did not pick us from the recommended point as she gave the excuse that her buggy driving skills are not good enough. Therefore we had to walk a longer way to be picked up, which puzzled everyone as there was more than enough space and a road for buggy entry….
❌ Not enough staff, especially at dinner and breakfast. Food is slow to come at dinner even though we pre-ordered. Waited 30 mins and more. Staff are loud clearing the crockery, and had no sense of regard for those still dinning.
❌tour groups arrive in the evening by the bus load. The hotel did not feel premium with the crowd who were very loud.
❌the private hot spring in the room only had a fixed temperature of more than 40 degrees which made it very uncomfortable when the external temperature is more than 30 degrees. The solution was to mix it with cold water via tap, which was very slow and impractical. The hot water needs to be filled up by the staff, and you have to call them.
❌not suitable for those with difficulty walking or elderly. ideal to have your own car.
🤔Overall, I did not feel that I made a good choice with this booking. There are others private hot spring room near Yu Shui hot spring / Bamboo sea area for a better value and premium feel.
🫥I would also caution against the 100 yuan fish coupon - it is a discount coupon to offset about a third of the price of the dish, not a complimentary coupon for a fish head casserole.
I did not receive the welcome gift so I can’t comment. The public hot springs has 4 pools.
