It was a lovely respite to stay here in a busy frenetic modern city. We were upgraded to a suite and it was so spacious - one room for us parents and a separate room with sofa bed for pour 25 year old son. Location is very convenient - walking distance to many local restaurants and a huge shopping mall (Raffles City) just across the road. We didn't walk to the Bund but it is a walkable distance. Didi car transport was easy to get from this hotel. Overall a lovely elegant atmosphere - unique from all the big chain hotels. However one comment is that there are giant soft toys on display from the outside balconies and lobby lounge sofas. Maybe that appeals to the Chinese market, but to the Westerner's eyes they are strangely out of place and incongruent.

We were rather disappointed by this hotel. The room was a good size as was the bathroom but we had absolutely no view but looked out onto some boring buildings as our room was at the back of the hotel. The room was also a bit tired. The breakfast buffet was very limited and the chairs at breakfast were so old all the stuffing had gone and you sank down really low. They were quite uncomfortable. There is a metro stop across the road and People’s Square is about 150meters away at the top of the road. Nanjing Road East is also a 2 minute walk away so it is very well located. If you like walking like us you can easily walk to the Bund too in 15/20 minutes.

We stayed at this hotel for a long weekend in December on our way to Thailand. My queries prior to our stay were answered quickly and efficiently. The hotel itself is lovely with an art deco style marble lobby and a beautiful stained glass roof. Our room was a great size with a very comfortable bed. Tea, coffee and water were provided, along with robes and slippers. We had a large bathroom with a huge tub which was decorated with rose petals one day for our anniversary. The staff were very friendly and luckily for us spoke decent English. The location really brings this hotel into its own though. It’s literally across the road to People’s Square metro so we took the Maglev from the airport then the metro the rest of the way. Cheap and easy. There’s are loads of local restaurants, supermarkets and greengrocers so everything you need is on hand. About 10/15 mins walk to The Bund, round the corner to the walking street East Nanjing Road and about 20 mins walk to Yu Gardens. We did get the metro places but also did a lot of walking as the weather was good and the hotel was so central. We would 100% stay here again. Loved the hotel, loved Shanghai!

I had a highly disappointing experience with this hotel. It's been 19 days since my stay, and I am still waiting for my refund for the security deposit. The hotel staff gave misleading information at check-in and check-out, assuring me that the refund process would be automatic and hassle-free. However, I later discovered that refunds to debit cards take significantly longer, something they failed to mention, leaving me unable to make an informed decision about my payment method. What’s worse, there was no clear indication during booking that a security deposit was even required. This lack of transparency has caused me a great deal of stress. I've had to waste time repeatedly following up with both the hotel and Booking.com to resolve this issue, but I am still without my money. The overall experience has left me feeling scammed. I cannot recommend this hotel to anyone and strongly urge others to avoid it unless they enjoy paying extra for security deposits they will never get back.
