Hotel 5-Star di Chongqing, China

We travelled as a family of 4 and booked the 2 bedroom apartment. We enjoyed our 5 nights stay at Ascott Raffles City Chongqing. 1. Location was ideal. Connected on the metro Line 1. Plenty of shops and restaurants within the mall. Ascotts is connected to the mall via Entrance 12. 2. Room is spacious for 4 adults. Daily housekeeping and they are generous to provide more drinking water for us throughout the stay. 3. Amenities: There is the pool and gym. Looks good. 4. Food: Daily breakfast included. Good assortment of local and western fare. In addition, there is supper provided for those who are keen. 5. Lastly, I want to comment on the helpful staff and the genuine great service provided. We arrived on 9 Mar Sun night. After check-in, we decided to go into the mall for dinner. The bellhop/porter at level 1 was very nice. Noted that it was already 920pm. He informed us that the mall entrance 12 will closed at 10pm. To return back to hotel, we would have to use other exit. Instead of just giving us instructions, he made the extra effort to walk with us to enter the mall using another entrance (which will be open when the mall closes).  Really appreciate his great services.

Nice hotel in great location with walking distance to Hongya Cave, Kuixing Tower and Jiefangbei Pedestrian Street. Front desk and concierge staffs are friendly and helpful. Clean room and spacious. Thank you for the welcome gift. Only feedback is pillow too soft and flat. The chief at egg station was reluctant to make sunny side up when my husband requested on Day 1. We stayed 4 nights, the subsequent requests were served without any excuses.😄

Room is clean and spacious. However noise insulation is not fantastic, either that or my neighbors were extremely loud. Could hear them so loud esp during the power outage period at 3am on 17 Dec, in the middle of the night. Very good location and good selection of breakfast. Check-out counter staff service was rude when I ask question about where to leave the luggage after check-out. However the baggage counter staff service was excellent.

Hotel is conveniently located in the Jiefangbei area. While it is not new, it is well maintained and hygienic. Front desk servic staff team is helpful and friendly. We like the spacious room.

**Excellent location, convenient transportation** The hotel is located in the core area of ​​Yuzhong District, at No. 235-1 Minsheng Road. It is within walking distance to popular attractions such as Jiefangbei, Hongyadong and Shibati. There are also large shopping malls such as Xiexin Starlight Plaza and Yingli Darongcheng nearby, so both cultural and tourism exploration and shopping and entertainment are within easy reach. From the hotel, it is also very convenient to take the bus or subway to the Yangtze River Cableway, Ciqikou Ancient Town and other places, which can be called ”good news for lazy people”. **High-altitude night view, magical and shocking** The Cloud Lobby and Restaurant on the 57th floor is a highlight of the hotel! The 360° panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows offer a panoramic view of Chongqing's 8D magical landscape. The magnificent river view of Qiansimen Bridge and the confluence of two rivers are intertwined with the city skyline. Especially when the lights come on at night, it is like being in the fairy tale world of ”Spirited Away”. Some rooms have direct views of the river or city, so you can enjoy the three-dimensional picture of the mountain city while lying in bed. **Comfortable rooms, perfect details** The room design is modern and thoughtful. The spacious space of 38-40㎡ is equipped with high-end mattresses and star-rated down bedding, and the sleeping experience is comparable to ”sleeping on a couch in the clouds”. Some room types are equipped with oversized floor-to-ceiling windows, which provide natural light during the day and become private viewing platforms at night. In terms of facilities, it is fully equipped with intelligent guest control system, free mini bar, high-speed Wi-Fi, etc., and high-end quality is reflected in every detail. **Warm service, extended experience** - **Personalized care**: The front desk service is warm and thoughtful. A guest once had a fever due to a sudden change in the weather. After calling late at night, he quickly received a quilt and medicine. There were even staff members who delivered medicine across floors. The thoughtfulness was touching. - **Free extended service**: The hotel provides free self-service manicure, video game area, laundry room and gym, which can meet diverse needs whether it is a family trip or a business trip. The extended stay package also includes afternoon tea for two, further enriching the stay experience. **Flexible Upgrade**: Some guests reported that the front desk would proactively upgrade the room type (such as upgrading to a room with a view of Qiansimen Bridge) according to the situation to improve their satisfaction. --- ### **Sumptuous dining, a feast for your taste buds** Breakfast can be called the ”king of cost-effectiveness”. There are up to 150 dishes combining Chinese and Western styles, incorporating local flavors such as Chongqing noodles and hot and sour rice noodles. The high-altitude dining environment is a great way to start the day with vitality. --- ### **Summarize** With its excellent geographical location, stunning high-altitude views, high-quality guest rooms and humanized services, Chongqing Daji Pagoda SSAW Design Hotel has become an ideal base for exploring the mountain city. Whether it is a family trip, a couple's vacation or a business trip, this place can provide the comfort and surprise of ”zero-PA life” and is worth staying here repeatedly!

The hotel is great, there is a free shuttle bus, you can book in advance. The front desk QY service is also great, send the hotel's precautions in advance, help arrange the room in advance, said that the weather is hot, but also help arrange the air conditioning in advance, full marks for service. The room is clean, hygienic and satisfactory. And then I'll tell you a little bit about some of their conveniences.Facilities: The free parking lot also has charging pile is very convenient for the family to drive, there is a lobby bar bubble tea to eat snacks leisurely, there are reading hobbies can also read books, it is happy that their home also has Starbucks oh.

Our experience with Westin hotel was beyond exceed expectations. After the booking i requested for birthday occassion preparation to be done and they didnt.impose any extra charge. The room is very spacious whereby our toddler enjoyed the space and view so so much The baggage arrangement was also tip top! Lastly the breakfast is full of choices. Our stay with Westin is.extrra comfortable, service is so so accomodating and we love every part at Westin! Please keep up with such standard and we will.return definitely!

Excellent location, walking distance to the main attractions. Luxury room with a great breakfast buffet. Club lounge evening cocktail is marvelous, added a couple of hot Chinese food with noodle live station on top of normal wines, liquor, salad, desert & fruit.

We had a very pleasant experience from the moment we were processing our check-in. The front desk had a pleasant smile and was very accommodating with our requests. After our check out from the hotel,小易 also presented us with 2 greeting cards. The night view of the city was also spectacular from our rooms.

The location is fine for what I wanted. It is close to dozens of fantastic cafes, bars and restaurants on and around Ziwei street. However, I’m not sure I’d choose it again. It’s a bit old and tired now. The rooms were once apartments; there is a small kitchen unit (no longer equipped). The worst thing was the disgusting smell of stale cigarette smoke in my non-smoking room. Even after 48 hours of open windows, it made no difference. The shower suddenly went freezing cold for a second or two approximately every minute (both mornings) and the utterly bizarre hard and sharp plastic spikes on the shower mat did not exactly improve the mood! The city view room is not worth paying for. It is a city view, but no landmarks. The traffic is noisy all night (especially with windows open due to cigarette smells)! As an internationally branded hotel, they need to do better in terms of stamping out smoking. I think I could have done better for the money and will seek to do so the next time I’m in Chongqing.
