I find Wuxi to be overly industrial (therefore, polluted,... but, that's certainly not unique to it) and uninspirational;... I'm guessing that the Marriott there wasn't built with tourists as a first priority (the same goes for Wuhan and TEDA). Of course, if you have lots of time on your hands, it wouldn't kill you to check it out .
