The room has charging port which does not require me to take out my adapter which is super convenient! Room is very big! Staff also very helpful especially the hotel managers and the Concierge. They also allowed me to deposit my luggage with them even after I checked out to go for day trip. The location also is super close to Nanjing East Road. Recommend!

The staff were kind, helpful, and professional. • The room was clean, though the décor and furnishings were outdated. • The bathroom requires renovation, as water leaked onto the floor during showers. • Breakfast was acceptable; however, hot dishes were often only warm and did not seem freshly prepared. • The location was very convenient, with close access to the subway and within walking distance of Nanjing Road, the Bund (Waitan), residential districts, and other tourist attractions.

Our room was clean and thoroughly tidied each day. We appreciate the attention to detail of each staff member and their kindness and awareness. We used the sauna ammenities and had a lovely time. The concierge we used to pass on items to a third party laundry we give were super helpful. The receptionists were well equipped with helpful information in both English and Mandarin. Super easy to communicate. Would definitely stay again!
