Transportation: How to get to the East Hotel Hangzhou?
The East Hotel Hangzhou is close to Shentangqiao Station of Hangzhou Metro Line 2, and a walking distance of about 600 meters. After taking a high-speed train from Shanghai to Hangzhou East Station, you can take Hangzhou Metro Line 1 to West Lake Cultural Square and then walk 1.4 kilometers. Arriving at the hotel, but considering the walking distance is too far, we directly queued up at the airport to take a scheduled taxi. However, the Hangzhou East Railway Station is crowded with people and it takes time to wait in line for the taxi.
The hotel is located near the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal and Wulin Square. You can take Metro Line 2 to Fengqi Road Station, which is adjacent to the West Lake Lakeside Park.
