Loved it!! Prime location, luxurious room, friendly staff, and they spoke English, which was a plus. Got newspaper delivered to our door every morning. If you like Xiao Long Bao or crabs, be sure to try their restaurant on the 2nd floor.

Our stay was comfortable. Check in was very smooth and we were asked if we wanted an upgrade to Executive Room,breakfast inclusive for a very good price. We loved the services provided by the hotel. There was also a 200RMB coupon for massages given. There was a complimentary plate of fruits provided for us. The location was very central so the attraction(s) was with in walking distance. We hope to stay here again when we plan our next Shanghai trip.

Excellent location, can't ask for a better location in Shanghai. Room is comfortable, food in the restaurant is great, but a bit pricy. However, you can always find other great choices on the street, as there are plenty of great restaurants nearby.

Perfect location for walking to the Bund for night life, shopping on Nanjing Road (main shopping malls in Shanghai), or Huanghe Road for local dining (for fresh made to serve Xiaolongbao). If you are an early bird, try to get to the Bund at 6am and you will see locals with dragon dancing, they are super friendly if you would like to try!

This place is near to metro line, shopping street and eating restaurants. The hotel is clean. The cleaner cleans until the floor are very shining. Fast service whenever you ask for help. Only thing Im not happy is that we have to pay rmb 1k deposit. We need to swap the credit card rmb1k on top of the room rate during check in. This is the hotel policy that we cant change.
