Great place to stay if youre a student and just looking for a convenient and close place to stay. Right in the centre and really not too expensive. I used to come here nearly once a weekend when i would go out as I lived far out from the centre! Perhaps not idea for a long stay though! I never... More

I was a little disappointed with the quality of the facilities at Mingtown Etour. First, the good. The location is really good. Very close to exit 11 of the People's Square metro, which is on 3 lines. A block or so from Nanjing Road, easy walking distance to Xintiandi, and a bunch of the museums are within a few blocks...

This was in a good location central to the main attractions and main street. There was a nice restaurant and bar. We stayed in a dorm room for a few nights which was fine, all clean and no problems. Then moved to a private double for a few nights. The hostel was modern and very nice! Good internet and a... More

Highly recommend this as a stop in Shanghai. We got the luxury room which was lovely and relatively cheap if you compare hotels in this location ,so close to the bund, metro and all the action. The young staff were excellent , knowledgeable and polite. More

Everything went great here. we booked a private twin with bathroom and we payed about 800 RMD for 3 nights, i.e. a great deal staying in Shanghai. The staff is very friendly, the rooms are clean and the food is tasty and cheap. If you order food at their restaurant for more than 100 RMB they give you a 20%... More

I again loved my stay at this hostel. I was back for the second time. It makes a great base for outtings around Shanghai and the Marriott next door is a great landmark for cabs or orienting yourself on foot. The rooms were still charming, with interesting furniture. The bar area makes a nice place to meet people, although I... More

This hostel by all appearances is very nice, of not one the most charming in feel and decoration. The rooms are spotless, the entire place is well run, the front desk tries hard to please and help. The downfall is the bar and the younger set partying hard and then throwing up/ getting sick and just being foul. I guess... More

My husband and I stayed at this hostel for 3 nights last month. The location was good, and the area around the bar was beautiful! We ate breakfast in the bar every morning we were there, and it was decent enough. The drinks they sell in the lobby are cheap, and there were also several stores on the street that... More

We stayed in this hostel the first night we arrived to China and were very unhappy. There waas only one room available and it was horrible! The walls were coverd in moulds and the air in the room was undescribably bad! As we arrived late and Shanghai is not the perfect place to find cheap accommodation, we took the room... More
