This hotel was decent and I would maybe stay here again. This hotel did not have any type of free internet service, not even in the lobby. I was willing to pay for internet, I was told that the first thirty minutes of wifi were free, but there was still a password required. So I went to the lobby to... More

Stayed at this hotel with my tour group and had few of the issues that others complained about. The room was large and clean, the breakfast was great, but the internet was costly. I think there are different qualities of rooms and depending on what is going on during the time you stay, you might get upgraded free. I was... More

I stayed there for 3 days while on business. The room and the view were great but the breakfast was really poor - no money for value at all. Additionally, I had to pay extra for everything including broadband. All the extra services (food, laundry) ended up being ridiculously expensive after the hotel added a lot of hidden charges. Food... More

The Shanghai Ocean Hotel, which is a 4-star property, is well located near the Huangpu River. I stayed there three nights with my tour group, China Focus. I really enjoyed my large room on the 12th floor. It was very bright and very clean. It had a wonderful view of Shanghai as well. My room had a king-size bed with... More

My husband and I are staying here as part of a China Focus tour. Where do I start? (1) There were NO rooms with king size beds available in the entire hotel when... More

We stayed at this hotel from March 22 - 26th as part of our group tour. We had a double room (2 twins), paid the same price as a family member who had a king, but had a smaller room. Their room had the big bed with a separate section for a loveseat, chair and coffee table. Our room had... More

We stayed here on our China Spree tour. The room is absolutely amazing! It's a huge street with tub, rainfall shower, heated mirror, huge closet and sitting area. We loved the rotating TV. The only bad part about this hotel is the service. We were first in a twin room and called down to see if we could change rooms.... More

The location was excellent and the rooms were huge. Everything was very clean. The breakfast was very good. You can choose from three different scented pillows as a free extra service. Be sure to read the directory carefully for an explanation of what ailments each scent targets. The staff at the Ocean Hotel spoke little English and it was difficult... More

The suites were huge, modern, and very nice. The buffet breakfast was very good and offered dim sum. My only complaint was that the beds were a little hard for my taste but everything else was outstanding. More

We stayed here over Chinese New Year in 2012 and had an amazing time. The hotel is centrally located (25-30 minute walk from The Bund), is very clean, the rooms are spcious, and the breakfast was great. I would recommend this hotel to ANYONE going to Shanghai. More
