8/10 Very good

Gem in Shanghai
Very good hotel close to Nanjing Road for shopping in a good area. There is a mall with a foodcourt across the road and a fantastic Cantonese restaurant on the bottom floor of the hotel (not part of the hotel). Many local restaurants to try out with all the types of food you can think of. Fantastic location. We liked being close to Nanjing road, but not IN it.
The hotel is directly opposite People's Square metro station. Line 2 from this station goes directly to both Shanghai airports and also the High Speed railway station at Hongqiao. Very easy to get to if using public transport or if planning day trips to neighbouring cities.
The only thing is that the aircon does not work very well. The staff put an extra freestanding fan in our room for comfort, but we wish the aircon just worked properly. Hotels in this price range should not have an aircon problem.
The amenities were very nice and the bathroom fantastic, with a huge bathtub and large separate shower. Overall the room was large and we enjoyed having a little balcony.
Breakfast is average - only had it once.
Thank you again to the staff for hosting us. We had a great time here. Thank you to the doormen who were always very friendly and made us feel welcome.
