The hotel is very close to metro, very clean, and staff of front table are very friendly and helpful, they upgrade my room when arrival. The location is surrounding with a lot of eating areas only steps away. I recommend it and will be back again.

Hotel near Pudong International Airport Area,Shanghai
GGuest User 2026.05.06
I cannot rave enough about this hotel. From start to finish everything about my stay here was incredible. Thank you Xiao Wu and Xiao Ting for making this stay great. Xiao Wu especially was lovely. He created a kind, warm, and professional first impression of the hotel. The room itself was unlike any I've ever stayed in which is why I chose it. Often pictures do not live up to the reality, but I feel like this room surpassed it. Another poster mentioned the costumes, which were indeed a cute touch. However, what stood out to me were the other small, but meaningful touches. There were bath salts near the bath which also had artificial rose petals and an eye steam mask on the sink. The bed was also strewn with petals without me having to especially request any of it. It really meant to the spa/romantic escape atmosphere. There was also a tub cover and toilet seat cover for sanitary use and floor towels for both the shower and the tub for safety. Five Senses: This room appealed to all of them. Touch: The bath towels themselves were the softest I've ever had at a hotel as was the robe. It wasn't the usual rough, abrasive texture. I don't know what they use differently their laundry, but it works!! The bed was also super comfortable Hearing: I don't know if it was because of the location of the room or the way the room is designed, but it was also the quietest stay I have ever had in a hotel. I didn't hear a peep from my neighbors. Even if I had, I could have used the thoughtfully included ear plugs. Smell: I'm not sure what the fragrance was, but the room smelled incredible. No smoke. No mildew. No bleach. Not overwhelming perfumed either. The scent was subtle but unmistakable and soothing. Sight: Aesthetically pleasing in every way. A serene retreat from the sun, the heat, the busyness, and the bleakness and sterility of the city. The the many textures appealed not only to the hands, but to the eyes. Taste: Water, tea (with real leaves and tea set), coffee, and soda are in the room. I was also offered some delicious cherry tomatoes to snack on when I checked in. I could continue, but I've gone on long enough!! 😅 TLDR; Well worth the time, money, and an extended stay. Wonderful staff. Clean, aesthetically pleasing room with many comforts and amenities. Would highly recommend and definitely visit again.

Very satisfied with this hotel! The location is superb, really close to the subway station, and the view of the river and the Oriental Pearl Tower is fantastic. There are also lots of convenient dining options nearby. The bed and pillows were very comfortable. The best surprise was the Dyson hairdryer – so many hotels have old, weak hairdryers, so this was a real plus. I couldn't seem to find any complimentary tea bags though? If there really aren't any, that would be a good improvement.

Experience the charm of old Shanghai at this five-star hotel, which truly excels in attention to detail. I like to open windows for fresh air, and my initial room's window couldn't open. I contacted the front desk, and they promptly moved me to a new room. The room facilities are indeed quite dated; the toilet in the bathroom was surprisingly small, and I had to shower while standing in the bathtub. Despite that, my overall experience was positive. Every staff member I encountered was very polite, making me feel right at home.

Stayed here for 6 nights. Basically, it was like being right in the middle of a happening town! Love that there's delicious halal food nearby, beside Apple store (Pinhuiwei Muslim Northwestern Chinese)! The Bund is nearby, Adidas flagstore is there, Starbucks everywhere. Love the vibe here! Will I stay here again? Yes I will but Shanghai has to be the 1st stop in China because there's no self service laundry here. The only con in this trip, or else, it would have been perfect! Then I'll followed by Xi An then Beijing, as those two cities have free laundry! My last two days was the start of their May Day! The number of people walking through Nanjing Street was crazy, shown in photo! But, it was very orderly so everyone had a good time here!

Great location, very convenient for getting around. The view from the hotel window was lovely. I booked two different room types for two nights. The 1.2m and 1.5m beds are perfect for families traveling with a baby, and it's also a great spot for coffee lovers.

It’s a great hotel for a couple nights’ stay. Although it feels somewhat dated (it really shows in such a hi-tech city as Shanghai) and the public spaces are cramped (the gym gives claustrophobic vibes when there are more than 5 people in it), especially considering the size of the building and number of rooms - it may suit well for a conservative traveller, or if you have to stay in this particular area, or simply if you enjoy being among European/South American tourists (I got an impression that locals don’t stay here). In a nutshell, the location is unbeatable, the breakfasts were good (half of dishes were westernized), staff speaks English and is helpful, the view from my room was breathtaking, nights were quiet. Some fresh towels were still stained, tho. Not good.

I booked this last minute for a business trip. All the Huazhu hotels were already priced at 700-800 RMB, but then I found this hotel apartment. At under 700 RMB, it was such a great deal! It's a one-bedroom, one-living room layout, offering excellent value for money and pure comfort. The bed was super comfy, not too soft, not too hard. The decor also felt quite new. While breakfast isn't included, there's a convenience store and a McDonald's downstairs, so getting breakfast is really easy. Plus, it's right next to several big malls like Century Link, making the whole area incredibly convenient. I'll definitely stay here again on my next business trip.

The reception team was very friendly and professional, and the room was clean. However, the bathroom was not at the expected level, and there was a lot of noise coming from the neighboring rooms. The room was also very small. In addition, there was disturbing construction and maintenance noise coming from the nearby building. When I booked the hotel, its rating seemed excellent, but after staying there, I found it to be average rather than excellent.

The hotel is located very close to famous tourist destinations like The Bund & Yu Garden. There’s a mall right across the road with plenty of local restaurants. We booked 2 Queen-sized rooms for family of 3 adults & 3 children, and got 1 room free-upgraded to King-sized for more convinience. We were warmly welcomed by Lucas from FO - the only person can speak English we met during the whole trip to Shanghai. He managed to help us arrange the best room & offered reakfast for my 8-year-old kid. Delivery service is modern with the help of robot. It’s quite pity that when we arrived under heavy rain, there’s no bellman assisting us with luggages.

IImyyjmI stayed in the Panorama Bund Retreat King Bed Room with Oriental Pearl Tower View. The panoramic views are unbelievably beautiful and can be enjoyed both from the room and the large bathtub. The window stretches almost the entire width of the room, with a large sofa beside it that allows you to sit comfortably and fully appreciate the skyline. The bed was incredibly spacious and comfortable, and the staff even brought scented oils to help with relaxation and sleep, which was a lovely touch. I must have arrived during a particularly busy period because the restaurant was always crowded and there was usually a queue for breakfast. However, on one occasion I was offered a takeaway breakfast box instead as I was in a hurry. As I do not have a Chinese phone number, I had difficulty ordering food from outside the hotel. Since the hotel had no halal and vegetarian options aside from one pasta dish, a member of staff kindly used their own phone to help me place an order and allowed me to reimburse them through Alipay. I thought this was incredibly thoughtful and helpful service. Even spending time in the hotel lobby felt relaxing, as the pink cherry blossoms outside the windows created such a beautiful atmosphere. The spa treatments were excellent and deeply relaxing. Lisa was fantastic and made the entire experience feel comfortable and welcoming. The in-room amenities were also wonderful! I loved the fragrance of the body lotion so much that I bought one from the spa before leaving. This has become one of my favourite hotels, and I already can’t wait to return.

GGuest UserA belated review, but an honest one. This Holiday Inn offers the same quality but with better value for money. Although it's not in a prime tourist area, the subway station is just a few minutes' walk away, making it convenient to get anywhere. There are plenty of restaurants nearby, so dining in or getting takeout is quick and easy. The hotel's breakfast buffet is also quite good. What I liked most was the swimming pool, which also has a hot tub and sauna. After a day of exploring, coming back for a swim and a soak made for a much better night's sleep. They also have a 24-hour gym and laundry facilities. Overall, it was a great experience, and both adults and kids were happy!

TTomato MxiaojieThis was my second stay at this hotel, and it's been recently renovated. The cleanliness is still top-notch, without any hint of smoke. The soundproofing in the rooms is excellent; you can barely hear any street noise. The hotel also provided a complimentary afternoon tea set for two, which was actually too much even for us three girls! The pastries were delicious and the coffee was great too. I especially want to commend the staff's excellent service attitude; they were so enthusiastic in answering our questions and even gave us a free room upgrade. I'll definitely choose to stay here again on my next trip to Shanghai.

GGuest UserFor my tenth anniversary with my wife, we chose the Regent. The hotel had prepared some simple decorations in advance, and our room's location and view were excellent. Some say the Regent's rooms are dim, but I genuinely love the dark red and green color scheme. A small exhibition was set up using the curved white walls, which my wife really appreciated. The room itself was spacious and comfortable, with great natural light during the day, decaf coffee capsules, and very cozy bedding. The best part, however, was the pool. Although not large, the view was incredible, and the bubble massage in the hot spring pool was very relaxing. After a swim, the Finnish sauna was just perfect. The staff were warm and attentive, promptly responding to our requests, and their attention to detail was impressive. The overall atmosphere was wonderful. They even followed up with a call later to ask about our stay. If the food could be a bit tastier, it would be absolutely perfect. I would definitely choose to stay here again for our next trip.

GGuest UserExcellent, exceeded expectations! The front desk staff were all incredibly friendly and welcoming. The room was surprisingly spacious for this area. The bathroom with a bathtub was incredibly comfortable, and the shower had great water pressure, making for a refreshing wash. You can grab bottled water from the dispenser by the elevator on each floor, which is perfect for an introvert like me. The subway station is literally just around the corner to the right – it takes a minute or two to get in, which is amazing; I've never stayed in a hotel so close to a subway before. Getting a ride-share is also very convenient; you can just set the pickup location to the hotel or the Agricultural Bank next door. The cleaning lady was also very polite; whenever she saw us leaving, she'd immediately ask if she could clean, so I didn't even need to tell the front desk. The building itself is very historic and full of character, and I took many photos because I loved the style. From my room, I could even see the 'Three-piece set' (referring to Shanghai's iconic skyscrapers) in the distance. All in all, this hotel offers incredible value for money, and I'll definitely consider staying here again if I have the chance.

The restaurant itself has a wonderful ambiance, and the variety of food is outstanding. I especially loved the red date tea and passion fruit tea. The hot pot selection, including the beef and live shrimp, was also top-notch, and they even had baked lobster and seafood soup. Breakfast was great too, and the room had a fantastic view!

GGuest UserHonestly, I never expected such an amazing experience at this hotel! I just picked it randomly, and I was completely blown away. Right from booking, the service was incredibly thoughtful. They proactively reached out to confirm all the details before check-in, so I didn't have to worry about a thing – it was so relaxing. Penny and Constance were wonderfully helpful, and the concierge was always on hand, efficient and reliable. The room itself was huge, spotlessly clean, and beautifully maintained. The view from the window instantly put me in a better mood. Although it's located in a busy area, it was surprisingly quiet and peaceful – I felt completely at ease. The hotel restaurant's food was also perfectly to my taste, delicious and comforting. There wasn't a single thing to complain about during my entire stay; I felt relaxed and free the whole time. Next time I'm in the area, I'm definitely choosing this place again!
