“The Best AAA*****”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 February 2012
3
people found this review helpful

If we could give it more stars we would! From the minute you step into the glassed foyer you are pampered - you can't open a door yourself as all are staffed by the friendliest people with the biggest smiles who can't wait to open the door for you. Don't even think about pushing a button for the elevator yourself as a staff member is racing to beat you to it LOL!! Absoultely beautiful hotel, so close to everything, over helpful staff - western hotels should have a look because even if their service was 25% of Grand Central's then they would have learnt something about valuing their customers as well as their staff. WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND

“Great hotel & location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 January 2012
5
people found this review helpful

The location is excellent because it's close to Metro(Subway) and Nanjing Rd. We booked a non-smoking room and it was spacious and clean. There are a lot of restaurants, shops and also the Bund is within walking distance. The hotel staff are very friendly with ok english speaking skills. Overall, a very comfortable stay in a nice enviroment...would stay at this hotel again next visit to Shanghai.

“Central Hotel in Shanghai”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 January 2012

The Hotel is centrally located near Peoples Square and Nanjing Road. The room was fantastic with a good sized queen bed, a small seating area and a desk. In the bathroom there was a separate shower and bath. I was only there for one day so didn't get to experience much within the hotel. I had to leave at 05:00 in the morning the breakfast box that was prepared was a little disappointing hence the knocking off 1 point. However 99% of people would eat breakfast in the hotel which I hear is good for both Eastern and Western visitors.
