The hotel's neighbor across had a suit I wanted to try on.

You can find less complicated constructions that parallel their order.

Sure, but that sounds clumsier and hides the meaning of the statement at the end which isn't usually how English speakers talk. It may be a less complicated translation but it isn't a better one.
