Review of Shanghai New Asia Hotel by Deborah

I originally planned to stay only one day before I moved to the much more expensive hotel (six times the price - without a view and not so close to the Bund!) with the rest of my business group. However, the other hotel booking had been booked erroneously and I New Asia Hotel did not mind at all extending my stay by a day. The other hotel was still unhelpful the following day and I decided to stay another 3 nights. For a small increase in price I asked to change to the other side of the building (I started in room 735 and moved to 712) so I could have a great view of the Pearl Tower. It was great looking out my window at the lovely skyscape. Internet was easy to use and reasonably priced. The business centre was okay. The massage/beauty centre was also quite good. The breakfast was reasonably priced, but cold two mornings and moved around depending on other events happening. The location was great I could walk over to the Huangpo river, the metro. I was afraid it was unsafe as a review indicated that, but I think they were mistaken and jumped to wrong conclusions. Definitely good value and friendly helpful service.
