  • Mikaela from Hong Kong – 27 October 2024 (9/10)

    The design is gorgeous, atmosphere and lighting super nice, staff were extra friendly and helpful, and the price value was excellent especially compared to other options available in Shanghai. Maybe it was just because of the recent opening and prices are lower for now, but I definitely was surprised by the value for money considering the kind of standard this hotel provided.
