Questions & Answers on Shanghai to Changzhou Train

Asked by Roger from USA | Nov. 26, 2019 18:47

How to reach Holiday Inn Express at No. 999 Lanling North Road?

Which station is closer to the hotel? Changzhou or Changzhou North?

Answered by Bryson from USA | Nov. 27, 2019 18:21

The main station, Changzhou is closer to the hotel. You can consider metro line 1 to Qingliangsi. The hotel is about 1.4km away from the exit NO. 1. If you want to avoid walking, taxi would be better otherwise you need to change bus on the way. Taxi may be only around 15min and cost around CNY20.
