Nice hotel

Hotel looks newly renovated. Nice building. Comfortable bed. Good value for money. One strange thing is my booking was for 2 people and with breakfast but they insist that my hotels.com booking only entitled me one person’s breakfast each day (I.e second person has to pay for breakfast). In the end I suggest they give me two persons breakfast on second day only, as I don’t want breakfast on first day anyways. But thought it was tricky

Location couldn’t of been better

Hotel was really comfy and in a great location for walking and use of the metro. The only downside was gym and pool, which were in another hotel just down the road, but facilities weren’t great. If you just want some dumbbells, that’s what it’s got. The restaurant and breakfast in the hotel were ok, but there are much better choices to eat in and around the surrounding areas (I highly recommend Din Tai Fung in the shopping mall if you like dumplings - the best I’ve had in Asia). Location couldn’t of been better though so I would stay there again.

Even more lovely after the remodeling

Amazing stay. The remodeling made it even better than before. Lovely fruits every day in the room. Spotless condition. So so breakfast. Close to all kinds of restaurants and a coffee shop with great breakfast across the street so no need to eat in the hotel.

2/10 Terrible

Verified traveler

Disliked: Staff & service

Appalling and Rude service

Surly and rude service at the reception desk. As a frequent travel to Shanghai, the only other place to receive the same poor service is at its sister hotel, the Donghu Guesthouse. Although the hotel is very comfortable, the service is so brutally rude (when they speak English) that the experience is entirely ruined. There is no possible way to recommend this hotel until they decide to treat their guests with more respect and consideration. Perhaps they can provide their staff with a course in hotel management and courtesy.
