Convenient location, near to all the shopping and the bund. Nice, comfortable bedrooms, good service. The only downside was the strong cigarette smoke smell filling the entire cafe on the 2nd floor. Which we discovered in day 2 and kept away. Other than that, we enjoyed our 4nights and 5 days stay.

I came alone and stayed for a few nights before my friend joined me. The reception staff are friendly and speak both English and Chinese and were more than happy to help with recommendations and provide anything requested. The location is wonderful and walking distance from the Bund and many other attractions. Next door is a convenience store and opposite is a delicious coffee shop which was great in the mornings. The room is cleaned daily and was spacious with amenities provided. The air con worked and WiFi is provided. Overall I could not complain about my stay,it was a wonderful place for my first time in China!

The hotel's location is excellent, right next to Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street. It's only a 15-20 minute walk to the Bund. This time I stayed in an executive room which included breakfast and access to the executive lounge. The breakfast spread was very generous with a wide variety of choices, and the food tasted good too. The only downside was that the room showed clear signs of wear and tear, with dark stains around the bathtub. Also, getting a taxi was a bit inconvenient as drivers often didn't know how to get to the lobby on the second floor.

The location is excellent, right on Nanjing Road. There's a revolving restaurant upstairs and a shopping mall on the lower floors, making dining very convenient. Oliver, who assisted us, was incredibly nice and attentive, providing a five-star service throughout our stay. Most of the guests were international tour groups. The only downside is that the rooms are a bit old, and some have average views. It would be better to choose a room type carefully when checking in at Radisson Blu Hotel Shanghai New World.

Nothing to conplain about. Room pictures are accurate. You get more than what you pay for. Cleanliness is perfect, unlimited coffee, tea, and ice at the lobby. Free softdrinks and water in your ref everyday. Very close to people’s square station + great food nearby. Best of all, japanese style toilet with bidet unlike most hotels in China. Would stay here only.

Had a lovely three-night stay! The staff were so welcoming, and the location is convenient being right by the metro and walking distance to popular streets. The room was cozy, though the lighting was a bit dim and it’s showing some age. The staff were helpful, but could use a bit more training with local tips. Overall, a solid choice for a budget-friendly trip!

The hotel's location is excellent, and the room is clean and tidy. The bedding is soft and comfortable, ensuring a good night's sleep. The front desk staff are exceptionally friendly, highly efficient, and communicate smoothly. They handle issues professionally and promptly, which made me feel very secure. Overall, I'm extremely satisfied with the service experience and it's definitely worth a thumbs-up! 069!

``Hello Word` 2026.08.27
Living in a Century of History, Encountering Shanghai's Old Soul | Yangtze Hotel Shanghai Stay Experience Stepping onto the bustling Hankou Road, a creamy white building with a rich Art Deco flair comes into view – this is the Yangtze Hotel, a repository of Shanghai's century-old memories. From the moment you push open the revolving doors, you embark on a journey through time. The hotel's exterior boasts a distinctive look, with staggered balconies adorned with fresh blue hydrangeas. The soft, creamy white walls, paired with vintage geometric carvings, make it a quiet and elegant presence amidst the city's bustling traffic. Looking up, a red-brick Gothic church tower stands nearby, new and old architecture echoing each other. On one side, the clamor of a modern metropolis; on the other, the charm of old Shanghai, steeped in a hundred years of history – the atmosphere is absolutely captivating. Stepping into the lobby, the street noise instantly fades away. Retro patterned marble floors stretch forward, while the high, vaulted stained-glass ceiling casts a dazzling light. Sunlight filters through, creating shifting patterns and an overwhelming sense of history. In the center of the hall stands an elegant black grand piano, poised as if ready to play the enchanting melodies of old Shanghai. Colonnades, vintage chandeliers, exquisite floral arrangements – the recent renovation hasn't erased the building's original historical essence but has instead perfectly blended modern comfort with old-world elegance. Every detail is worth a moment's appreciation. The guest rooms continue the serene and elegant style. Dark brown wooden doorframes and a headboard featuring red and gold vintage patterns are complemented by a soft, sophisticated carpet. There are no overly flamboyant decorations; it's understated yet luxurious. The bed is soft and comfortable, the room is bright and airy, offering a tranquil escape from the bustling city. At night, closing the windows effectively blocks out street noise, ensuring a peaceful sleep. The bathroom is spacious, with marble countertops, a retro carved mirror, and even a bathtub. After a long day, a hot bath washes away travel fatigue. The amenities truly live up to the standard of a well-established luxury hotel. The geographical location is undoubtedly the hotel's strongest asset. Situated in the city center, Huangpu District, it's within walking distance of key attractions like People's Square, The Bund, and Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street. Stepping out, you're right in the vibrant streets of Shanghai, making transportation incredibly convenient for sightseeing and dining. Of course, a century-old building will inevitably bear the marks of time. Compared to newly built hotels, the room layouts here have a unique retro charm. But this unparalleled sense of historical atmosphere is precisely the most precious gift the Yangtze Hotel offers. If you're tired of generic chain hotels and wish to understand Shanghai in a different way, the Yangtze Hotel is an excellent choice. Here, you're not just staying in a room; you're living a forgotten chapter of the city's past, a gentle reunion with old Shanghai.

Excellent location and perfect after a long day of exploring. We enjoyed our stay at Yitel Premium in Shanghai. The location was excellent, right on Nanjing Pedestrian Road, making it extremely convenient for exploring the city and getting around. One of the highlights was definitely the bed with the adjustable 0-gravity position and massage function. After spending long days walking around Shanghai, coming back to the hotel and relaxing in that bed was fantastic! The room was comfortable and the hotel was a very convenient base for sightseeing. We didn’t have breakfast at the hotel, so we can’t comment on the breakfast. Overall, we had a pleasant stay and would definitely consider staying here again when visiting Shanghai.

Opartment (The Far Estern Hotel) Shanghai

9.5/10
Outstanding
Posted on Aug 28, 2026|2-bedroom And 1-living Room Suite
CNGuest User
The room is very spacious, definitely not cramped for 4 people! With two bedrooms and two bathrooms, it easily solves any issues with showering and using the toilet. The hotel has 6 parking spaces right in front, first-come, first-served, but there are no charging stations. There are also parking spaces in the alley next to the hotel, though availability depends on luck.

This hostel was my choice for a whirlwind trip, and it's super close to Nanjing East Road. I'd come back really late after exploring, and it was reassuring for a female traveler to know the front desk was staffed 24/7. The privacy in the dorm beds was decent. Bathrooms were cleaned quite promptly, though you might have to wait a bit when it's busy. They offer free luggage storage, which is a huge plus for tourists, and it's definitely worth considering for students on a budget.

The room was a bit small and didn't have a fridge. However, the bed, duvet, and pillows were very comfortable. The hotel's location is extremely convenient; the First Food Store is right outside, and Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street and People's Square Station are just a stone's throw away.

The hotel is in a very strategic location, right in the heart of the pedestrian street, making it very convenient for exploring the area. The subway station is also extremely close — you only need to cross the street to get there. The hotel itself is relatively small, and the room is a bit on the smaller side. The service is standard, but the excellent location definitely makes up for it. Overall, a good choice if location and easy access to public transportation are your priorities.

This was my second stay at this hotel, and I’m just as happy with it as the first time. The hotel is very comfortable and is located in the heart of the Bund, close to shopping malls and many attractions, making it a great choice for shopping and sightseeing. I usually stay here for only one or two nights, but the location and convenience keep bringing me back. Getting around is very easy. The hotel is well connected to public transportation, and traveling from the airport is convenient. You can reach it by metro with only one transfer (or even a direct line from some airport routes), making the journey simple and hassle-free. I really enjoyed my stay and would definitely choose this hotel again on my next visit to Shanghai.

Plus House at The Bund

8.2/10
Posted on Feb 8, 2026|Boutique Queen LOFT
Guest User
First, the good points: The washing machine and dryer were super convenient, allowing us to wash our clothes during our trip – everything felt clean and tidy! It rained the day we arrived, so we were stuck inside, but the kids had a blast playing house on both floors. It's about a six-minute walk to the metro station, which is decent. The Bund is just a ten-minute walk away, perfect for admiring the historic architecture and the Oriental Pearl Tower, and experiencing the two different worlds along the Huangpu River. If you turn left out of the hotel and walk one block, you'll find a breakfast spot selling buns, porridge, and eggs at market prices. Now for the downsides: Don't expect much in the way of room service or friendly smiles from the staff.

Shanghai Yijun Select Hotel

I had a fantastic experience staying at the [Shanghai Yijun Hotel] during my trip to Shanghai! The location is absolutely perfect; the subway entrance is right outside, making it just a few stops to popular spots like Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street and Chenghuang Temple. After a long day of sightseeing, it was wonderful to come back to a spotlessly clean room with a meticulously made bed. The front desk staff, especially the ladies, were incredibly friendly and always greeted us with a smile whenever we entered or left. The price was very reasonable, and given the excellent service and cleanliness, it offers truly amazing value for money!
