ibis Chengdu Chunxi Road Shudu Mansion Hotel 1 نجمة

The Ibis Chengdu offered a great experience for the price. The room was surprisingly spacious, clean, and very comfortable, making for a relaxing stay. The breakfast was a definite highlight, with a wide variety of delicious options to choose from. The hotel is located within reasonable proximity to Chunxi shopping street, making it easy to access the city's main shopping area. However, it's crucial to be aware that the location displayed on Google Maps is inaccurate; the Ibis is located within the same building as the Mercure Chengdu. Despite this map issue, I would recommend this hotel for its comfortable rooms, excellent breakfast, and affordable price.

Great location for the city. 10 min on foot to the central square or to the nearest metro station, not really noisy despite being between two busy roads. The hotel shares the building with a Mercure hotel, with a strange alignment of lifts (only 1 lift serves Ibis and 1 serves both hotels, and you need to call both separately so you will wait). The staff was helpful and gave me the room a bit before the official check-in time, which was nice. They didn't speak English, however, but the translation app worked. The room was quite modern. Unfortunately many small issues: the bathroom sink somehow made all my toiletries wet, there was only one socket for both kettle and fridge, and the Ibis slippers fell apart in less than 2 days. Also no safe nor any drawer or cabinet with a door. Not a disaster but I expected a bit more given the price.

In corona times many cheaper hotels in China are not allowing foreigners to check in. This hotel is okay for foreigners. The room was very large. Nice to get a table and chairs as well as a bed. Large window, lots of light, and the window opened enough to get a small breeze in the room. The bed was very confortable. Be aware there is a big outdoor 烧烤/BBQ joint directly opposite that plays music until midnight or later. During the day touts are on the mic trying to sell phones. It is loud all the time. The location is alright. It's a bit awkward because it sits in between two busy roads and you need to cross a bridge to get into the main pedestrian area, but you can still reach everything central within a 10 minute walk or so. Lots of taxis outside if you don't want to walk.

This hotel changed hands recently and, as result, the quality has obviously plummeted. In fact when we were dropped off by the taxi we argued about the location but he assured us it was correct. We were checked in in a brusque manner at evening time as the dining area was being used for a company Karaoke event. There seemed to be a lot of Eastern European girls, suitably clad, hanging around for the elevators! Don’t stay here!

Breakfast only Chinese, so nothing for Western. Even front desk staff didn't speak English and they never heard of Accor membership despite being part of the chain. Central location close to shopping and restaurants. Room very basic and nothing special.
