So we got to the airport Took our taxi after making the queue. After 45 minutes It seems we are near the hotel, the first problem, the taxi driver talks us in chinese and makes bizarre moves, we understand he cannot enter the hotel street, he is not allowed. So we have to go by walking to the hotel reception... more

We booked this hotel (and payed) by an internetagent 3 months before we would arrive. By arrival our (already payed) reservation seems to be cancelled (not by us!). The hotelmanager told us he did not get the payment from his agent (happens more often, he told) and forced us to pay again but this time more than the original facture... more

Check in was fine and staff were helpful and pleasant enough. Their English was a bit limited, but better than expected and much better than our Chinese. No real problems there. The room was disappointing. We were expecting a new room as the hotel was not very old. The room was a good size and probably if anything bigger than... more

Because of the construction, no taxis would come to this hotel. We had to walk several huge block in the... more

When trying to find a place in Shanghai during the opening day for the olympics, you would think that since Shanghai is far from Beijing, you would have no problems... that day, almost all the hotels were booked, so I just looked up and found this holiday inn express. I was very very surprised. The hotel room was spotless, new,... more

I found this hotel on the net and it seemed to be too good to be true, for only 300RMB per room per night including breakfast in a brand new international hotel in central Shanghai - unheard of. The hotel is fairly new and looks good from the outside, reception is small for such a big hotel - but the... more
