Excellent location for exploring Shanghai, close to major metro stations and the Bund”

This is an excellent hotel for exploring Shanghai. It is strategically located along the Nanjing Road East Pedestrian Street, the renowned shopping street of Shanghai with abundant dining and shopping options. It is a 10 minutes walk from the Bund. More importantly, it is located close to major metro stations like People’s Square and Nanjing Road East, which are well connected to key metro lines that can take you to key attractions, as well as the Shanghai Railway Station where you can take a train to explore a nearby city like Hangzhou or Suzhou. The hotel is clean and pristine, occupying the 8th to 11th floor of a building, away from the bustle of the street below. Staff are attentive and polite. However, non-Mandarin speakers may have difficulty communicating with them as many do not speak much English.

Awesome Location!”

This boutique apartment located smacked in the middle of the famous Nanjing Pedestrian Road Street. For first time traveller, this is so helpful. It is very near to Metro Line 2 East Nanjing station, Line 10 (of the same name), a walking distance to People's Park (where you can go to their cute little children's themepark - with rollercoaster and all & see the Marriage Market on weekend). 5 minutes away from the M&M store,Jamaican Blue Restaurant and Costa Coffee (for coffee drinker like me this is super convenient) and 20 minutes walked to the beautiful The Bund. The facilities is good as well - the room is spacious with cute washing machine very comfortable living room. FYI, this hotel is above Zara - level 8 is the lobby

Excellent location, accommodating staff and child-friendly facilities”

It was our first time to visit Shanghai and find this boutique apartment through Agoda. The place was right at the middle of bustling East Nanjing Road which makes it really ideal to go around the shops and restaurants. The staff was patient with us being English speakers and they have the best intention to assit and to help. We highly recommend this boutique apartment especially those who travel with kids. The room was unique design with a slide and throw pillows making the kids ecstatic with the room.

Location is great and yea... breakfast is no longer hanging on the door handle :) ”

We came on Line2 from Pudong Airport - quite comfortable (with a quick train change at Guanglan) at the princely fare of USD1 per person. Taking the MagLev, I feel, is not better unless there's time pressure or if it's for the experience. Otherwise, the scramble for seats at Longyang is likely to require more agility and alertness. Get off at East Nanjing Stn Exit1, go right and walk for about 5 mins till u see 2 huge screen on the opp side. As u pass the 2nd screen, Zara which is not exactly prominent, will be about 20 steps to go. Check in on the 8th floor comes with limited English but this should be amply overcome with the electronic translator they used. Breakfast spread was very simple with no crisp bacon but is good enough to get your numberr 2 going and thence you may refill at the numerous eateries along Nanjing Road. Definitely good for a 3 night stay. Walkable to the bund, ppl's square and even Yuyuan Gdn. Clean, comfortable basic room. Great Lively location!

Very good location!!”

Apartment is in the heart of Nanjing Pedestrian Road, and walking distance to East Nanjing Road and People's Square Metro Station, which leads to many tourist attractions. If you want to avoid the touristy areas within Nanjing Road, take a 5 minutes stroll along Zhejiang Middle Road to explore the "neighbourhood" for cheap and authentic food. The room is big enough to place a few luggages, and there is a washing machine with complimentary washing detergent for your laundry needs. Room is clean and comfortable, though it will be better if the windows are bigger.

home away from home”

Excellent location, walking distance to both nanjing east road and people square metro stations, short distance to most places, easy to get a cab, safe to walk back late at night. Lots of local food in vicinity. Fastest check-in I've encountered, helpful staff, complimentary room upgrade, highest floor at level 11. Comfy and clean room, consistent hot shower. Motion sensor bathroom lighting so you don't have to look for the bathroom light switch in the dark (but can be irritating at times when it keeps switching on and off). Not much soundproofing, you can hear your neighbours coming back and their conversations. Lift lobby is a little far from building entrance. Overall an excellent stay, I would recommend as well as return when back in Shanghai.

Best location of the hotel in Shanghai”

The Nearest MRT to this boutique apartment is EAST NANJING MRT, there is another MRT (People square MRT) but this second MRT is a bit far, and you have to bring your luggages across the street. A bit difficult to find this apartment. You have to find ZARA store...... This apartment is in the same building, on the 8th and 9th floor. Use the elevator at the back at the side of ZARA (don't enter ZARA). Not all the staff speak english, but they use a translator phone to speak with us. nice

Location and Cleanliness, with helpful staff”

The location is the best in Shanghai. It is in the middle of hectic East Nanjing road, which is very near to the restaurants and shops. It is only 10 minutes from East Nanjing subway station. The Room is clean and facilities are okay. The Staff are very helpful. Only the breakfast was not really satisfies us

The hotel location is smack in the middle of Nanjing Pedestrian Street above Zara.”

The hotel location is right in the middle of Nanjing pedestrian street and is only a short walk to the metro stations, one to east of the hotel and one to the west of the hotel. It is also a short walk to the Bund. We got upgraded to a large room located on floor level 8.5 free of charge. Level 8.5 has a large common area with large lounge, a table, a few gym equipment and is nicely decorated. The room art decor is modern with a very comfortable bed, a sofa, a kitchenette and a washing machine and the usual amenities that come with hotel room except this hotel does not provide toothbrushes, comb or razor. The staff are friendly, attentive and are helpful. The staff use a portable language translator device which can translate many languages to chinese and vice versa. They showed us the major tourist destination on a map and helped us book a car from the hotel to the airport. The hotel also provide basic breakfast.

Excellent”

Its location is very convenient -- right on Nanjing East Pedestrian Street, near to both Nanjing East metro station and People's Square metro station, lots of food and shops available within walking distance. Even if you forget to bring any toiletries with you, there's a Watson's just a few steps away. I had booked a single room at a great bargain (promotional rate) and was upgraded to a double room. Breakfast was buffet-style (7am to 9.30am). It's fairly ok, considering the room rate you're paying for this. Please do not expect 5-star breakfast buffet. There was bread, buns (western and Chinese style), muffins, cakes, Asian style porridge, fried rice, vegetables, hard boiled eggs, fruits, salad. Suggestion for the hotel: Install a hook behind the bathroom door to allow the hanging of clothes.

Great Location, Adequate Amenities”

Stayed in Single Room. - Location was fantastic, right in the midst of the famous Nanjing East Road Pedestrian Street. - A little bit of walking distance from Metro station of Nanjing East Road Station. - Room was adequate and satisfactory. - Not well soundproof, can hear outside corridor from time to time. - Staff were pleasant and great. Saw a customer making things difficult for receptionist but she handled it well. - Breakfast was satisfactory for me. Though, a lack of variety.

The room is big and comfortable”

Not to far from peoples square metro station and the location is in shopping area nanjing road. Easy to find the food.. you can choose fancy restaurant or food stall.. the hotel lobby is at 8 Floor.. will stay at this place again when i visit Shanghai Next time

Poor breakfast but great location”

The location is superb, easy access to Nanjing road metro station, a lot to shop and eat at the surrounding of this boutique hotel. Only bad is the housekeeping don’t change bedsheet everyday, and you have to request. Cleanliness could be improved to be better, can see the stain on the floor at bathroom. However, overall cleanliness is acceptable. Always spotted the housekeeping staff playing phone in the morning when we got out from room, should spend more time to clean the room instead of playing phone. Front desk staff all are very helpful and friendly. Breakfast was so so, I didn’t take their breakfast after had tried on the first day.

Very good”

Conveniently located along Nanjing East road pedestrian street, just above Zara. Located in between two subway stations - east nanjing and people's square. Concept of the hotel is great, but the facilities are kind of worn out, which is likely the work of past guests. The sensor light at the washing basin is kind of redundant. Service attitude of counter staff need improvement which another of my friend who stayed here few months ago told me about. The chambermaids are more friendly than them >.<, they smile and greet guests when they see us. We also had some noise issue with the first room allocated. When we checked with the reception staff, she just brushed us off saying the noise is caused by the aircon thus it's normal and kept quiet over the phone. As we find it suspicious, we went to the counter in the evening again and met the GM. She rest assure that she will check out our room after 10 mins, and she came to our room offering to change our room which we really appreciate. Compliments should really be given to the GM as this is the real customer oriented attitude the service line should possess!

Very good hotel”

Best location, right in the centre of the shopping street. It's in the middle of two metro stations, so if you have luggages, Nanjing East station is about 5 minute walk away. Clean and tidy, with everything you need, TV, washing machine etc. Breakfast is provided at about 7am, if you have to leave early, tell them the day before and they will try to have yours ready a bit earlier. Did not have a great time in Shanghai, so don't know if we will go to Shanghai again, but if we do, this is where we will stay for sure.

Fantastic location ”

The apartment was spacious, comfortably fitted 2 adults and 2 children. Love the fact that there were 2 queen size beds and 2 bathrooms, and the washing machine comes in very handy for a family. Can't beat the location, super convenient at the heart of East Nanjing Road. Hotel even provided free breakfast and afternoon tea. Only annoying bit is that my room key had issue every day so I couldn't get into the room and had to go to reception to reprogram it EVERY day. But overall a great stay and would recommend it.

Great Family Hotel”

ZARA is at the G/F of the hotel (8/F) and the place is in between nanjing road (east) station and people's square station, if you have luggage, we suggest exit at nanjing road (inside a shopping mall - forgot the exit no.) since it has an elevator going up the road. FREE afternoon coffee time from 2:00 pm to 5:00 pm. (coffee & cakes) spacious room specially for family of 4.

Great location!”

Perfect location for 1st time tourists. Located in e heart of East Nanjing Road in between 2 train stations. Surrounded with shops, resturants and convenient stores. Whoever gng to make their way there, the hotel is located above Zara boutique forneasy reference. No signage of the hotel. No fridge in e room.

Excellent”

Wow...i'm the fan of the room, Deluxe Queen! Its interior is bright, cosy and well designed. It has a washing machine to your convenience. Location is a perfect match of shopping, eating, sight-seeing and entertaining. It's walking distance to the People's square, Madame Tussaud's Wax Museum and the Bund. The Hop-on-hop-off sightseeing bus station is just diagonally across the hotel. This is definitely the right place to explore Shanghai on your own.

Convenient location in the buzz of the city”

Convenient location close to 2 MRT stations (Nanjing East Road Station/ People's Square Station) , with lots of shopping and dining options around the service apartment. Reception staff are friendly and helpful and are proficient in speaking English. The interior decor gives the room a homely feel and is bright and comfortable.
