This hotel is absolute perfection and possibly my #1 stay in all of my China solo tour. ||First, I needed to check in early (12 noon) and the front desk was able to accommodate me (I called in beforehand to check). They were also able to offer late checkout (2pm) so I could get some extra rest before my train. Maybe my Discoverist status helped, or maybe the hotel extended the courtesies.||Second, this location is precisely where you want to be in Chongqing. It’s within walking distance to Hongyadong, the wildest tourist spot in the city — although you’ll probably want to cross the north bridge to get a good photo of the building. It’s also right next to 人民解放纪念碑, where all the tourists flock to for shopping and food. If you’re going out somewhere further, the hotel’s also a great launchpad to reach multiple subway stations.||Third, I used a Lounge Access Award for my booking which gave me access to their executive lounge on the 37th floor, and since they don’t offer breakfast in the lounge, I was given a free breakfast pass for my entire stay. They have an extensive breakfast spread with multiple sections: warm foods, salad, fruits, cereals, porridge, a made-to-order noodle bar, coffees, and pastries. But this hotel offered a breakfast item they really deserve a huge shoutout for: freshly made fruit juices. They had orange, watermelon, honeydew melon, and grapefruit. Also, the dining room is massive and very spaced out so you don’t feel too close to the other tables around you.||This hotel really deserves every accolade on TA. Best hotel decision...
Read moreWe stayed a couple of nights at Hyatt Regency Chongqing and had a very comfortable stay. The hotel is in a fantastic location right in the middle of the city, very close to the Independence monument, main eating street and Shopping Malls and is within a relatively short taxi/Didi distance from Hongye Cave, Liziba Station (Train that goes through the apartment building), various Old Towns and other tourist sites.||The room was very clean, comfortable, spacious, had full bathroom amenities, slippers, a very comfortable bed and the shower had excellent water pressure. The windows were double glazed so there was no intruding outside noise. We used the hotel's laundry service and they were very fast and efficient.||The reception staff were very friendly and helpful but were not very fluent in English. However, we were able to get by as my wife can speak Mandarin. Travellers without access to a Mandarin speaker may need to rely on translation apps.||Having said that, we loved our time there and we would happily stay there again as it was clean, VERY reasonable in price and the location...
