Top Downtown Hangzhou Hotel Reviews

Zheda Yuanzheng Lanshe Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Service tip top. They helped out in some of the booking of shows too and it was efficient. Communication may be difficult for English but we used the phone translator and I speak simple mandarin, hence, it was pleasant. The location of the hotel is also good. Near to amenities and close to Fsmous He Fang street and drum tower."

Intercontinental Hangzhou Wulin by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent service, regardless of whether are you checking in or out, the staff treated you professionally and politely. The proximity to the malls around Wulin square and the Wulin night market is also a plus. But they need to review the "tastiness" of the breakfast. The breakfast has a respectable spread, what one would expect from a 5-star hotel, but the "tastiness" has many room for improvement."

EVEN Hotel Hangzhou West Lake by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"I highly recommend this place for travellers in Hangzhou. The service is unmatched. Most staff speak English. They’re always available for help! It’s in a great location with the night market just steps away. It’s a pleasant walk to West Lake. The hotel is very new and modern. The breakfast buffet was fabulous and offered a huge variety of very fresh food."

Holiday Inn Hangzhou West Lake By Ihg

8/10 Good

"Room was clean and well kept. However, the practice of switching off the aircon ( from 230am to 9am) was not acceptable at the time at end of April where the room temperature for sun-facing room to increase to 27 degree at 640 am causing profound discomfort. Had been awoken at such timing due to the heat. The hotel did nothing despite the feedback."
