The room is clean, spacious and very comfy. Needs some renovations though but it didn't affect the comfort of staying there. WE had windows with sunset view which was a nice feature. Room is stocked with everything you might need: hair dryer, iron and board for ironing, bathroom necessities, enough storage space, great spacious safe. Thick curtains! Completely dark if needed. Loved the restaurant - lovely atmosphere and good food. Lots of choices as well. Worth the money in my opinion. Cleaning service is great (although it seems to be common for hotels in China), they managed to do everything exactly when we were out even if we were out shortly. Like magic. I liked that bcs in other countries a lot of awkward situations for everyone involved happened due to their weird schedule of work. But here they are like ninjas :) Also good location - not far from the beach and main street and rose garden. Loved the city as well - absolutely delightful, green, lots of flowers, cute buildings. Overall impression - it needs to either be cheaper or some renovations should be done. After that we stayed at another 5 star hotel in Shanghai for the same price and it was on completely another level. But generally great experience :)

Didn't like the pool and pool area. Not cozy and a bit dark. Also the pool is more like sport pool, not recreational one. And shallow. Would be good to set a procedure for calling taxi for foreign guests. It seemed like the reception staff had problems with that and we missed our train to Beijing because of that. The young man (i think he was a consierge) went far and beyond to help us though and we appreciate that.

Very nice hotel, great service (however the stuff almost do not speak English).

The staff were generally very nice and helpful. The room was quiet with good views. There are many interesting walks, restaurants, shops and parks nearby.

For 2 people staying, put 4 towels in the room. The main receptionist (female) needs to learn to smile and look pleasant to the customer. She seemed stern and a little angry. The TV channels were all a little blurry. I don't know if it is the TV reception or the age of the TV. Picture quality is from the 1980s.
