I had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The location is very convenient, right next to the metro, and the rooms are modern, spacious, and well equipped. The food was excellent, with great quality and variety. The hotel even offered a free city tour with excellent guides, which made the experience unforgettable. What truly stood out was the outstanding staff—always attentive, professional, and eager to help. Many thanks especially to Jane and Jonshon at the front desk who went above and beyond with recommendations and assistance. Their warmth and dedication truly elevated my stay—I felt cared for at every moment.Highly recommended!

The hotel is perfect if you have a very late or an early flight to or from Pudong Airport. It's really close to the Terminals and you have everything you need to get a good rest after or before a flight. Everything was perfect for this purpose.

This definitely deserves a full ten-star rating! From the very beginning of contact, I felt nothing but professionalism and care. Lemon was really kind and helpful. Every detail was handled impeccably, making the experience absolutely top-notch. Both the service attitude and the final result exceeded all expectations, and there wasn't a single flaw to be found. Such a high standard is definitely worthy of everyone's choice. I sincerely recommend it, thank you for bringing such a wonderful experience. I will always support it and recommend it to friends around me! Thanks again!
