This is a run-down hotel in a run-down part of one of the poorer cities in China.  While we felt safe in the hotel, we didn't feel safe to walk the streets at night.  The lobby was the usual grand affair but the whole place needs a bit of spit and polish.  The hotel is not a dump but sadly in need of maintenance and refurbishment, at least compared with other hotels we stayed at during our week-plus in 4 cities.  The room was budget-conscious - 2 teabags, 2 coffee serves, no sweetener or whitener and no teaspoons.  The room was spacious enough, and the bed clean and comfortable.  Breakfast was adequate but not enticing.  Happy that we only had to spend one night here.

Basic, clean and comfortable, needs an upgrade.

4th hotel on drip and
 Once again find most in the 4star rating area all same  same but a little different..bit smaller room in this one but as with all .clean and tidy Once again. Breakfast more average than the others so far but ok still normal mix of Asian and western.

More of the same really

We stayed at the Snowy Seas for just one night as part of a group tour (Tripadeal). The hotel is not new but everything worked well. Our upper-level room was clean and very spacious and enjoyed views across the city. Older style furnishings but that was fine. Lighting excellent. Lift was whisper quiet and very fast. 

Perfectly pleasant

This hotel was clean with comfortable beds, a good size room and staff that tried very hard to understand us. It has a lovely restaurant although there is absolutely nothing in English anywhere and it's quite expensive. We tried to eat there but they didn't have any Peking duck left. A guest that could speak English let us know ....
There is a supermarket / shopping centre about 200m to the right where we bought wine and snacks and sat in our room with our friends and made our own entertainment. The fridge didn't seem to get cold but we eventually managed to explain that we would like an ice bucket and the staff were very helpful.
Breakfast was ok, not much western and the tea that was available was cold.
It's a nice hotel if you're staying in Suzhou.

Good effort ...

1. Location: It is located in a busy area, but there is not much tourist facilities around. There are convenience stores (NOT 24-hours) and a huge supermarket nearby with some eateries, including a KFC. Easy access to tourist sites in old Suzhou. Subway is about a 15-minute walk away.

2. Rooms: Huge. Bathroom with good water temperatures, a number of English channels on TV, and good wifi coverage.

3. Amenities: Indoor pool was closed because of the season. Breakfast offers a huge selection of food and was pretty good.

4. Staff: Functional, polite; no complaints here.

Great value ...

We stayed at the Snowy Sea Hotel as part of our tour of China. The accommodation here was very comfortable. The hotel had a very glamourous air with beautiful decor. The rooms were comfortable and well appointed. The breakfast buffet offered a nice selection of both Western and local options and the restaurant itself had a lovely atmosphere. Suzhou is one of the wettest regions in China and it felt cosy looking out the windows at the rain while sipping our coffee. The hotel is located close to a number of shops and restaurants so very convenient for a little souvenir shopping or picking up some snacks. Suzhou is known as the 'Venice of China' and one of the popular attractions is cruising the canals of Suzhou to get a real insight into how many people in this city live with the canal system as the focal point in their daily lives. The hotel staff were more than happy to arrange tours for guests. The ancient gardens of Suzhou are also worth a visit. We have very good memories of spending some time in this region and this hotel.

Classy accommodation in a beautiful region of China

A single night is not enough to enjoy this hotel.  Check in was fast.  Hotel is beautiful.  Staff are courteous.  Another amazing breakfast buffet.  Room was fairly good sized.  Beds comfortable.  Bathroom was well equipped.  Nice amenities.  Bilingual staff during part of the day.  Have your translator app handy.

Awesome

Stayed 1 night as part of a Trip A Deal tour.  Was the best hotel we stayed in.  The hotel and room were bright, modern and spacious.  Buffet breakfast was good. Amenities good.  Plenty of restaurants and ATM’s within walking distance.

The Best Hotel on the Tour

We stayed here as part of a tour group.  The Snowy Sea Hotel is an older establishment and the carpet in our room was well worn, stained and sticky.  I was pleased slippers were on offer in the room because that is all I wore there.  There was a broken cold water tap in the bathroom basin which needed urgent attention as it couldn't be used.  The bed was comfy and breakfast was good.  There was no cutlery in the room and no bottle opener to open the bottle of wine we purchased.   We went to reception to ask but the receptionist couldn't speak english.  However, she did offer her phone for us to speak into which translated what we wanted perfectly and a bottle opener was delivered to our room.  Thank goodness for smart phones!

Our room needed attention

Lovely Accomadation only a slight problem of water not draining away too quickly however clean, 4 star and the Breakfasts were excellent with plenty of choice. Bed was comfortable and easy lift access
