I stayed here for a convention and it was much better value than the adjacent Shangri La. I was ripped off by my taxi from the Maglev and the check in staff were very helpful! The staff are all courteous and charming - I left my credit card in the ATM and a member of the floor staff sought me... More

This hotel is situated in the financial district of Shanghai one minute from the pearl tower and one minute from the sightseeing tunnel, so the good stuff covered let me explain some things that were not quite right, the rooms are in need of overhaul with old furnishings and stained carpet. The reception is on the ground floor and all... More

We stayed in this hotel for 3 nights and didn't quite expect such a dingy hotel. The reception area is on the 8th level of an old building. I thought we got to a wrong place first. Staff couldn't speak english so I tried my survival chinese but that did not help to elevate their helpfulness and amount of friendliness.... More

Some facts about the room: a squished mosquito was still on the window pane (in December!); there were blackened dirt marks on the bottom of the bathtub; the carpeting was stained; one of the plastic faceplates for the electrical outlets in the bathroom was partly for show (there was no real receptacle in the wall behind the upper part of...

My family of three (including a 15-month-old child) stayed at this hotel for three days. It's a nice hotel in a very good location -- close to subway and right next to the Oriental Pearl tower. There's also a nice walkway along the river right outside the hotel. Our room is quite spacious, with a nice view of The Bund.... More

Stayed almost a week with a group of about 20, while attending a conference at the adjacent Shanghai International Conference Center. Centrally located close to many malls, restaurants, Oriental Pearl Tower, almost on the bank of Huangpu river. Could just walk into conference hall straight from our bed rooms! Check in and check out were efficiently handled. Bedroom was very... More

Stayed here for a conference in July. Luxury hotel with excellent gym (although too hot) and magnificent views of Pudong and the Bund. Fabulous location.

Hotel is nice enough for a 5 star hotel. Clean, good service, but not the top tier of Shanghai hotels. Drinks are absurdly expensive in the atrium, but the included breakfast is excellent if you like Chinese style breakfasts. Fresh hand-pulled noodles most mornings was the highlight!
