The Garden Hotel Suzhou (Nanyuan Binguan) was once the private garden of Mr. Jiang Jie Shi. Starting from 1952, the Suzhou Garden Hotel was appointed the residence for state guests by the Suzhou Government, serving hundreds of national leaders. The hotel underwent an RMB 2.6 billion renovation in 2005.
The Garden Hotel Suzhou is within the stone's throw from world cultural heritage sites such as the Master-of-Nets Garden and the Canglang Pavilion. The hotel is the largest Chinese garden style hotel in the city center, from which guests may conveniently access the Suzhou train station and bus station.
This Suzhou hotel hosts a large ballroom, two reception rooms and three multifunctional meeting rooms. It is an ideal place for weddings, parties, exhibitions and other functions.
