Scholars Shushan Hot Springs Resort

The service from all the staff was warm and impressive. Housekeeping done a great job as rooms are clean and fresh. The hotsprings are on the smaller side but it definitely hits the spot and they even have the fish foot therapy. I'll definitely be returning. It was a lovely experience.

The Hotel was really great with hot springs water . Highly recommended.

This hot springs resort on the far side of Suzhou from Shanghai depicts itself honestly in the photos...and they were very kid friendly. My children had a great time in the various pools and the restaurant/lobby staff were very accommodating. I have already recommended this place to two friends with small children. The hot springs aren't open until the afternoon though, so you won't get a dip in the morning before you check out. I'd recommend getting to the hotel close to check-in time or a little before to maximize time enjoying the pools. The breakfast was big, but mostly Chinese dishes. The area around the hotel has an eco village but it is mostly vendors and roads with cars and bikes flying past...a safety concern when traveling with kids. We didn't get a great feeling of nature here, although we did find one pathway up the nearby mountain which was fun.
