This place is far from magnificent. We booked this place because it was in our price range and close to a metro station. We paid $43USD for one night at the end of May, which included breakfast. THE HOTEL The entrance to the hotel is under construction so we had to enter through the back. The hotel is old and... more

Great location, close to Subway, The Bundt and old part of Shanghai city. Poor breakfast selection. more

Magnificent Hotel, Xizang Road South is an excellent location. Very close to Yuyuan Gardens, People square for line 8 & 1 metro, Nanjing road, Bund and the ferry to the pearl tower (2 yuan). The main problem was construction works that went on all night due to road extension. This is beyond the control of the hotel. Please ensure that... more

Check the room before you check in. The desk tried to foist off a windowless room on 3rd floor with a king and a cot...we were supposed to get a standard (twins) and an extra bed. The windows were blocked off with opaque plexiglass to obscure the fact that there was a dump just outside...literally. We refused these rooms, and... more

We were booked here for four nights in mid-April. There was an open sewer line next to the hotel, and the windows were not soundproof so sleeping with earplugs was the only way to drown out the traffic noise. It's in the middle of a construction zone and the immediate neighborhood didn't leave me safe walking home at night unless... more

I found this hotel on the net and booked it mainly due to the location, right in the middle of Tibet Rd (Xizang South Rd), which is less then 5 minutes stroll to Hua Hai Rd and another 5 minutes on straight up the road to Peoples Sq. Rooms are moderate and look like any Ramada hotel you would find... more

Our experience was not satisfactory. We stayed for 2 nights 3 days in hotel & I wonder how this hotel got a 3* rating. The towels in bathroom were torn on all days. The Receptionist are NOT at all helpful. They just do not wish to answer any queries about transportation in Shanghai. The stanard reply is take a Taxi.... more

I've actually stayed here twice now. I live in Suzhou about 1 hour away from Shanghai and have stayed in 5 hotels in Shanghai, and this along with the Howard Johnson at Huaihai Lu would be my two picks. It's quite cheap and the location is great - it may not appear so at first, but trust me. You can... more
