FS Hotel Suzhou: 9-Hectare Private Island Retreat with Timeless Jiangnan Charm

Four Seasons Hotels & Resorts

Renowned worldwide, Four Seasons Hotels & Resorts is synonymous with luxury, exceptional service, and distinctive destinations. FS Hotel Suzhou continues this legacy, offering a rare combination of cultural heritage, waterfront beauty, and modern indulgence. Located on a 9-hectare private island on Jinji Lake, this sanctuary blends Suzhou’s poetic charm with the convenience of city access, delivering a stay that is as tranquil as it is inspiring.


A Private Island Escape in the Heart of Suzhou

Gardens, Waterways, and the Spirit of Jiangnan

Nestled on Jinji Lake, FS Hotel Suzhou envelops guests in a peaceful landscape of manicured gardens, reflecting ponds, and sweeping lake views. Just a short bridge away, the vibrant city center awaits — but here, time slows, allowing you to savour the essence of Jiangnan’s aquatic beauty. The setting recalls Marco Polo’s famed description of Suzhou as the “Venice of the East,” with its canals, arched bridges, and waterside dwellings.

Guests can enjoy:

  • Expansive lake-view gardens spanning the entire private island
  • A harmonious blend of natural scenery and Suzhou’s cultural elegance
  • Seamless transitions from serene seclusion to urban exploration

Elegant Accommodations for Every Mood

The hotel offers 210 thoughtfully designed rooms, suites, and stand-alone villas. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame the lake’s shimmer, while open-plan layouts and warm tones create a refined yet relaxing environment. Whether it’s a romantic retreat in a villa or a family holiday in a spacious suite, each accommodation delivers the refined touches that define Four Seasons style.


Cultural Experiences and Signature Activities

Discovering Suzhou’s Heritage

From UNESCO-listed Classical Gardens to the masterful architecture of the Suzhou Museum designed by I. M. Pei, the city offers a rich tapestry of experiences. FS Hotel Suzhou places you steps from these treasures, with concierge-guided tours to uncover their stories. Guests can explore Ligong Causeway’s cultural offerings or drift along canals to view the city’s heritage from the water.

Wellness and Water Adventures

A stay at FS Hotel Suzhou also invites active exploration and mindful relaxation. The spa celebrates Suzhou’s heritage through treatments inspired by local traditions, while two swimming pools — an outdoor infinity pool overlooking Jinji Lake and a glass-enclosed indoor pool — offer restorative escapes.

For adventure seekers:

  • Windsurfing on Jinji Lake with professional guidance
  • Keelboat sailing for a taste of the open water
  • Family-friendly activities and the Kids for All Seasons program
