Great location, great rooms. It's good to see a well designed hotel in Shanghai. Very different in style from URBN... equally nice. The location is truly convenient. The breakfast is decent... not the best, not the worst in China. Definitely one of the more pleasant properties I have stayed in China. The staff is fine, not overwhelmingly attentive, but is... more

great hotel, good location, highly recommended for a stay in shanghai (and don't forget to check out lounge 18 on the bund) more

We'd booked a studio at JIA for three nights as part of a trip round China. The hotel is a bit tricky to find, but get a good map and you'll be ok. It's right by West Nanjing Road metro station and that's how we got there from the airport, after a ride on Shanghai's superfast maglev train (recommended). From... more

In a lovely 1920's building right on Nanjing Road West. Perfect front desk staff. Helpful, warm, charming service. Lobby is cute, slightly crazy on the air con (but that's China, they keep it on 18C if you are lucky). Room was great, with a very handy and beautiful carrara marble kithchenette. Perfect bathroom. Towels could be better though. Bit worn... more

Jia was a fabulous based to explore Shanghai. Stylish small hotel with excellent service and a really good feel. Our room was lovely but a little small. Other than that, only positive things. Breakfast is excellent (the rye pancakes especially). The afternoon snacks and evening drinks a real bonus. The service was fantastic. Good gym with washing machine and dryer... more

Huge comfy beds, Hip Hotel decor, great staff, complimentary breakfast in the coolest of dining rooms, complimentary afternoon tea and evening wine,beer and softdrink in the bar. The location is perfect just off Nanjing road- walk to pretty much all the shopping you want.... copy markets 3 blocks away, a... more

We have just returned from a trip to Vietnam and Shanghai and spent the last 6 nights of our trip in a balcony suite on the 6th floor of the Jia Shanghai. We had stayed at the hotel in June but this time returned with our family and upgraded the room type to the balcony suite. This is one cool... more

I have probably slept in 1000+ beds round the word. Hotels, Motels, friends houses, B&B's, sleeping bags and the back seat of a few cars.... The JIA is now one on my 10 ten places to stay in the world. Something different, fantastic interior design with a great staff supporting this unique concept. I stayed in the 1 bedroom suite... more

Nice hotel sits in a traditional building. Location is ok given steps from subway station. Room decoration was stylish. If you interst to try some local style.. you can have your breakfast close by. It cost us ~USD2/person only. more
