Because of its location, I returned to this hotel on my third and fourth night in Shanghai. The hotels seems to had undergone minimal renovation. The bathroom somehow looks cleaner than before with a much better show head, although the bathtub is still as swallow as I remembered it to be. Breakfast skewed more towards your chinese spread, noodles and... More

For a city with so many mid range choices, I probably wouldn't go here again. The location is good, but about 10 minutes walk to line 1 and 10 south shaanxi rd metro. Efficient, poker faced service. Damn small superior rooms... Barely could walk around! The breakfast was so average. Weird mix of western and Chinese dishes (e.g chicken nuggets,... More

Although the hotel is not exactly near the subway it is within walking distance to either the West Nanjin Road station (1.6 km) or the South Shaanxi Road station (700 m). The hotel is inside the French Concession where you will find lots of restaurants and clothing stores (mostly for women). The room was spacious and clean, WiFi was reliable... More

When I am in Shnaghai I always stay in this hotel, specially now that the renovation is completed. Good value for the money, near Hongqiao airport, near the subway, nice places around.. Great breakfast, rooms are clean and fully renovated ... So if you think in a good hotel with a decent price in Shanghai, you can try it, no... More

The best thing about the City Hotel is its location in the French Concession. Within walking distance are any number of bars ans restaurants.Taxis in Shanghai are very cheap and for 20/30 yuan you can get to practically anywhere in the city. True, there is a big refurb of the exterior going on, so my recommendation would be to book... More

I was informed at check-in,very efficient by the way,that the Hotel had renovation work going on.I would have thought it courteous of them to tell me this when I made my reservation just two weeks before.The Kango's kicked in about 7.30am,no problem there as I'm an early riser,and continued until about 5.30pm.Other than that the City Hotel met my needs...

Actually the exterior of the hotel is under restoration so is not possibile have any view and during the day could be a little noise. Apart this temporary problem the hotel is an average 4 star hotel, with normal size room, but for sure quite old like furnishment and decoration. The price deserves more the position of the hotel than... More

We were travelling across the China by last 3 weeks and this is definitely not four star hotel. We stayed sometimes in 2 star hotel, but we had better service and accommodation then in this one. Maybe there are restaurants and other business amenities in that hotel, but air-conditioning is set up centrally and you are not able to adjust... More

Cozy business hotel with great staff and an excellent breakfast restaurant. There is also a Pinnacle Peak Steakhouse on the fifth floor if you're craving a good steak, french wine or a hoegarten. The bartender can make just about any drink.
