[2025 Pinghu Stay] Travel Guide for Courtyard by Marriott Pinghu (Updated Jan)

| A hidden gem 1.5 hours from Shanghai. ✨ After spending a long time in the fast-paced city of Shanghai, I always want to find a quiet place to hide. I accidentally discovered Pinghu, which is only 1.5 hours away from Shanghai, but hides unknown surprises 🎉. 🛤️Day 1: Ancient charm and modern style, a date with the lake and sea Set off in the morning and head to Pinghu. First, rush to A Zhen A Ba for steaming hot specialty shumai, which is super satisfying 😋. Then visit Mo's Manor, a Jiangnan-style old house with a lot of charm, and the second floor is open! When you get tired of walking, Flaneur Coffee's Dirty will refresh you ☕. Have local food at Lao Pinghu Nanhetou Restaurant for lunch, and take a walk along Donghu Lake in the afternoon. Pass by the Li Shutong Memorial Hall and feel the tranquility at Baoben Zen Temple. The Tanghu Ten Games Zheli opposite Baoben Zen Temple is a great place for afternoon tea 🍵. Ride a bike to Jiulongshan Forest Park to catch a sunset over the sea, which is breathtaking 🌅. Enjoy a delicious meal at Good Mom's Private Kitchen in the evening, then go to Sihu for a pearl milk tea toast, which is sweet to the heart. Return to the Courtyard by Marriott Pinghu and fall asleep with beautiful dreams. 🌳Day 2: City life, intangible cultural heritage The chicken rice noodles at Maogou Rice Noodles for breakfast are amazing, and Huadatou's crab shell yellow and Pinghu pickled eggs are a must-pack 📦. Head to Zhongdai Cherry Blossom Town to visit the temple fair and enjoy the flowers. The oil cakes at Zhen Nan Snacks are crispy and delicious. Then take a leisurely stroll along Zhongdai Old Street to feel the passage of time. 💖 Pinghu has a lot of delicious food, and the intangible cultural heritage delicacies are a must-try. The city parks are cozy and comfortable, and walking along Donghu Lake is very pleasant. Staying at the Courtyard by Marriott Pinghu allows you to enjoy the tranquility of Minghu Park. Mo's Manor, Baoben Zen Temple, Jiulongshan, Zhongdai Old Street... each has its own charm, which is completely different from the hustle and bustle of Shanghai. Spending a weekend here is like a "vacation" for the soul. Follow this route, and you will fall in love with Pinghu 💗!

- I went to Jiangsu and Zhejiang for the weekend and was recommended this hotel. I love the traditional Jiangnan architecture, so I chose to stay here. 📍【Location】The hotel is about a 10-minute drive from the center of Pinghu, Jiaxing, and is next to Minghu Park. 🌱【Environment】The hotel's design incorporates the original ancient architecture, combined with the essence of traditional Chinese garden architecture, with pink walls and black tiles. 💓【Facilities】Opened in 2021, all rooms offer lake or garden views. Rooms are equipped with capsule coffee machines and tea sets, and the mini bar is free and comes with complimentary welcome fruit. The hotel has a free parking garage, gym, restaurant and bar, meeting room, tea room, laundry room, etc. Bicycles are also available for rent. Compared to hotels near resort areas that cost thousands, this hotel is almost unbeatable in terms of cost performance. 🙄️The only downside to this trip was that there was a big family next door, and a naughty child kept the door open and made a lot of noise, which was quite annoying~

The ancient towns around Shanghai are too numerous to count, and the four famous ancient towns of the south of the Yangtze River are all concentrated in Suzhou and Jiaxing, less than two hours' drive from Shanghai. In fact, between Xitang and Wuzhen, there is another small city that is outstanding and tranquil with abundant resources—Pinghu. Pinghu is a county-level city under the jurisdiction of Jiaxing City. Although it has always been very low-key, in terms of historical and cultural aspects, it is by no means inferior to any other county town in the south of the Yangtze River! Coming here, one can feel a completely different vibe from Shanghai. The hotel's geographical location is in the city center of Pinghu, adjacent to the Pinghu Municipal Government, with a superior location. However, these small county towns are more suitable for self-driving, as public transportation is relatively scarce. The hotel as a whole has an ancient and elegant manor-style structure, equipped with a garden landscape, presenting a vacation atmosphere. Courtyard is a brand under the Marriott International Hotel Group, so the standards in all aspects meet the high-star hotel standards of Shanghai. However, because it is in Pinghu, the room rates are much more competitive than those of similar hotels in Shanghai. The hotel's buffet breakfast is very rich, and one can see the leisurely outdoor seating in the courtyard.
