BeiTa Hotel

The room smelled lovely, and the temperature was perfectly set. It's a very elegant Suzhou-style courtyard. The concierge was also super nice, diligently answering every question and explaining all the important details very clearly.

This time I chose a Suzhou-style garden courtyard, and truly experienced living 'within a painting'. It's a serene garden courtyard nestled in a bustling area, full of ancient architectural charm, and the courtyard is beautifully maintained. You can take a whole set of traditional-style photos without even leaving. The guest rooms also retain a Chinese charm, are clean and tidy, and the housekeeper is thoughtful, attentive, and very gentle.

Such a charming courtyard with a great atmosphere! The rooms are authentically antique, tucked away in a quiet alley, which makes for peaceful nights. The owner noted that soundproofing in old houses isn't the best (though I thought it was fine), but when I pulled open the bedside table drawer, I found earplugs! How thoughtful ❤️ The front desk lady was super sweet and had an amazing attitude. She even helped me wash and dry my clothes when I was busy, and gave me a little gift when I left, hehe. Can't wait to visit again~

I have to give a shout-out to this B&B! The host was incredibly warm and thoughtful. They contacted me in advance to confirm my arrival time, helped with luggage storage, and even recommended some local eateries only the locals know about. The room decor has a lovely Suzhou charm, and you can feel the care put into it the moment you step inside. Any requests were answered in seconds; the service was attentive but never intrusive, making me feel as comfortable as if I were at home.

The hotel was great, and we had a wonderful two-day stay there. I hope to have the chance to stay again in the future. It's truly a hidden oasis in the city.

Not bad at all, and it's all Xiaomi furniture.

Location: Tucked away in an alley next to the North Pagoda, it's incredibly convenient to get everywhere. Baishi West is right next door, making it easy to enjoy the fresh fruits from Dongshan (recently plums and bayberries, and I just caught the tail end of the White Jade Loqats!). Service: The housekeeper is lovely! There are free cheongsams to wear and she's great for a chat. Plus, there's fruit, snacks, and pour-over coffee! Cleanliness: The common areas have a fair bit of clutter, a bit messy, but it gives it a very homely feel. Disposable toiletries are provided. Facilities: I stayed in the 'Youyuan' room. The air conditioning was a bit noisy, but it was raining that day so I didn't need to use it, which was fine. Everything else was pretty good. I loved coming back in the evening and sitting in the courtyard. Since my room, Youyuan, is right by the entrance, it felt like I had the whole courtyard to myself. Eating the White Jade Loqats I bought and listening to the wind chimes from the nearby North Temple Pagoda was truly delightful. If you're looking for a charming courtyard stay, and want more genuine connection with people, this is the place. Youyuan is a standard twin room, and since I was traveling alone, it was perfectly fine – one bed for sleeping and one for my belongings. If you're looking for a standardized, spacious experience, it might not be for you; a hotel would be a better fit in that case.

This place perfectly hits all my sweet spots. It beautifully combines the authentic elegance of Suzhou and Hangzhou with the traditional charm of local residential architecture. Plus, all the amenities nearby are a bonus, making it super convenient for me to work here.

There are two courtyards: one is classical, and the other is serene. Sitting in the courtyard, you can hear the chimes of Beisi Pagoda and enjoy the beautiful sight of rain hitting the pomegranate tree. There's a microwave, a fridge, and an unlimited supply of popsicles and drinking water.
