Reviews and Ratings
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The automatic curtains in the room were a nice touch, especially during hot days, but the service staff seemed a bit rushed at times. The location was convenient, with easy access to transportation and nearby dining options.
The hotel was conveniently located with a nice view and offered clean, comfortable rooms with friendly and helpful staff. However, the dining experience could be improved with better breakfast options. The service was efficient though lacking in friendliness.
Upon arriving at the hotel, I noticed a slight cigarette smell in the rooms, especially on the renovated floors. The location was pretty good, offering easy access to bars, restaurants, and key attractions around Jingan Temple. The dining experience was average with repetitive menu options, but the view was amazing. The service was friendly, although there was a lack of attention to pedestrian safety. The facilities were decent but could use some improvements.
The hotel offers neat and comfortable rooms but can feel small for longer stays. Despite the stuffiness, the location is convenient for shopping and metro access. The service is courteous with kind staff, though some areas like the dining can be expensive. Overall, it's a good choice with friendly staff and a great location.
The hotel is conveniently located at the junction of Jing'an and the French Connection, offering a mix of Chinese and Western foods. The rooms are lovely and clean, with convenient features like a night light and charging panel, but they can feel a bit cramped for two people. The service was friendly and helpful, although noise levels could be better managed. The dining options were varied, but those with specific dietary requirements may find options limited. The hotel's biggest advantage is its location, close to Jing'an Temple and subway, making it very convenient despite being slightly outside the city center.
The hotel offers comfortable rooms at a good value and the location is great near the metro. While the service may have some issues, the dining experience is comprehensive. Overall, a convenient choice for those looking for value and convenience.
My stay at the hotel was amazing! The rooms were lovely and clean, featuring great amenities like a night light, charging panel, and convenient room cleaning lights. However, there was a minor issue with the Aircon. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, making for a delightful stay.
The hotel offers modern rooms with a great view of the city center, equipped with all the needed amenities. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The location is convenient for exploring the city center, and there is a nice Chinese restaurant on the second floor for tasty meals.
