Radisson Collection Hyland Shanghai ★★★★

📍 No. 505, Nanjing East Road (Check in on the 2nd Floor), Huangpu District, Shanghai

"The hotel is well-located, right in the middle of the pedestrian street. We stayed in a standard room, but after our flight was canceled due to a typhoon, we extended our stay for another day and were moved to an upgraded room. The room was fantastic, we were probably lucky. It had two rooms: a living room with a sofa and a magnificent view of the pedestrian street. Besides a tea set, there was also a coffee machine. There was also a large, separate bathroom. It's an ideal option for a family with a child. The breakfasts are very good, with options for both children and adults. The only thing I didn't notice was an omelet station; there were fried eggs and scrambled eggs instead. But you won't go hungry; a delicious and hearty breakfast is guaranteed."

Toy Story Hotel ★★★★
"We stayed here for our Disneyland trip with the kids, and it was great to get early park entry. After the fireworks, we were exhausted, so being able to get back to the hotel in just five minutes to rest was fantastic. The staff were really welcoming, and there's even a kids' play area where they can do crafts. My child loved making a fridge magnet! We'll definitely choose this place again next time!"
