Still this hotel is very good. Location is central in Pudong and rooms and staff is very good indeed. The executive rooms are the best choice, because of the free internet, breakfast and the lounge on the 26th Floor. More

I stayed one week in excecutive room during my last business trip to Shanghai. Basically nothing to complain except the price. Room rate 1300rmb/night about including tax is outrageous. Nothing so special to justify the price. Best parts of this hotel were breakfast and gym which was outstanding. Pool is also highly recommended thus not open during my visit (winter).... More

Very good option in Shanghai. Tall new building located in Pudong (hotel starts on 40th floor) , good service, excellent restaurant and a gorgeous breakfast. Rooms are clean and bright. Walk distance from subway. It's worth an up-grade to the executive floors which gives you exclusive access to the lounge. On a clear day (rare) you can see the harbor.... More

We booked this hotel primarily because we wanted to end our tour in style at a hotel with a nice outdoor pool. We were not disappointed! The pool area is lovely & other than at the weekend when it became a bit swamped with people paying to come use the pool we had it virtually to ourselves. We stayed on... More

The service makes you feel like you are not welcomed. The rooms are huge and comfortable. Location was great, right in the middle of entertainment and shopping district. Staff tries to charge almost double the previous rate if you try to extend your stay longer. For the kind of price they charge they should have included breakfast. Internet is not... More
