Stayed for 2 nights. Rooms were not that big. Small bathroom. Overall ok, but I think that you could find better, closer to sightseeing and shopping. Breakfast was not too good. Not much of an option, so the second day we had breakfast elsewhere. Try the HAPPY FEET massage/reflexology clinic in the alley next to the supermarket. more

I have stayed at dozens of different hotels in Shanghai and across China, and have stayed at The Shanghai Hotel several times over the past few years. Before the hotel had some irritations for me - minor, but they were there. The staff had previously seemed cold and aloof; the breakfast was mediocre and if I had a problem then... more

Location was not the greatest, but taxis are cheap. We tried to walk back from the Pu Dong but ended up getting a taxi. Breakfast was nice. Rooms looked a bit tired & bathroom floor stained. Luggage took ages to come up & when i tried to get it off the trolley myself the porters insisted on delivering it themselves. more

I stayed at this hotel for three days with a group of high school students at the start of our China Tour. The rooms were OK, though the beds in some rooms were a little hard, it was a lottery as to whether you got a soft bed or a hard bed. I shared a triple room with two other... more

This was the start of our 2 week Page & Moy trip. We were very pleasantly surprised at the standard of the hotel. Staff were very curteous and efficient. Ground floor bar and snack bar was very good (just be aware that if you order a sandwich, it comes with chips and is very filling). The most impressive thing was... more

Stayed here for 3 nights in Sept 07 as part of a tour of Eastern China. The room was comfortable enough with good facilities, but the service left a lot to be desired. Staff at front of house were rather aloof, the bar was a bit of sad lonely place and the mixed drinks not very inspiring. We had a... more

I stayed in the Shanghai hotel for work purposes in February/March 2007 and I thought it was really nice. The hotel rooms are well decorated, have air conditioning and heating, tv with various channels including sky news and music channels. The hotel lobby is stunning, large and bright, and has a cosy little bar (which serves very nice red wine).... more

The location of the hotel is not the best for a tourist on a tight schedule, though the taxi fares in Shanghai is fairly cheap, averaging RMB 17 one way within the city (RMB7.5= U.S.$1). Our friday stay was U.S.$80. Same type of hotel at tourist areas can cost at least $50 or more. The hotel is between end of... more

My wife and l spent four nights in this Hotel, prior to embarking on a organised tour of China. I approached the Hotel a little apprehensive after viewing many comments on Trip Advisor. It was certainly not a four star Hotel as purported in the Travel Brochures, and would rate at the bottom end of three star. Be that as... more
