We were there for a romantic city trip and would definitely recommend this hotel. The entrance hall, the corridors and many rooms are both impressive and cosy. Our room was HUGE, nicely old-fashioned (old wooden floor), had good 3-stars facilities (fridge, boiler, safe, inexpensive internet access) and a very nice view.
A few caveats nonetheless:
- The quality / size / views vary enormously from one room to another. Check the room and, if not really satisfied, ask for something better. The first room we were given was next to a terribly noisy lift, so beware!
- Hotel staff don't speak very well English (as in most places - but how well do you speak Chinese? ;-) but they are very nice - insist a bit and do your best to be understood and you will see that service is excellent!
Enjoy your stay in Shanghai as much as we did ;-)
