Four Points by Sheraton Shanghai, Kangqiao

Four Points by Sheraton Shanghai, Kangqiao Overview

First Impressions

Walking into Four Points by Sheraton Shanghai, Kangqiao, you immediately get that reliable Sheraton vibe — nothing too flashy, but everything feels solid and well-maintained. The lobby has a modern business hotel aesthetic that actually works pretty well, and honestly, after a long flight into Shanghai, that predictable comfort is exactly what you want. The staff here genuinely seem to know what they’re doing, which I’ve learned not to take for granted at four-star properties in rapidly developing areas.

Location & Getting Around

Here’s the thing about Kangqiao — it’s not central Shanghai, but that’s actually part of its charm. You’re in Pudong, which means you’re on the same side of the river as the airport, making transfers way less stressful. The parking situation is fantastic if you’re driving, and it’s free, which is pretty rare for Shanghai hotels. What I really appreciated is how couples seem to gravitate toward this area — there’s something about being slightly removed from the chaos that makes it feel more intimate. The metro connections aren’t bad either, though you’ll want to factor in about 45 minutes to get to the Bund or People’s Square.

The Room Experience

My room was on the 12th floor, and I have to say, the views over the developing Pudong landscape are actually quite striking — especially at sunset when all those construction cranes turn into interesting silhouettes. The space itself is what you’d expect from a Four Points: clean lines, decent-sized desk for working, and a bathroom that’s modern without trying too hard. The bed was genuinely comfortable, and the air conditioning works well, which matters more than you might think during Shanghai’s humid summers.

Breakfast & Dining

The breakfast setup here is pretty smart — they offer a breakfast-to-go option, which I ended up using more than the sit-down service. It’s perfect when you want to get an early start exploring or have morning meetings across town. When I did eat in the restaurant, the mix of Western and Chinese options felt authentic rather than touristy. You know what surprised me? The coffee was actually good, not just hotel-lobby acceptable.

Why Guests Love It

What really sets this place apart is how it balances accessibility with that slightly-off-the-beaten-path feeling that couples especially seem to appreciate. The recent guests’ high rating for location makes sense once you spend a few days here — you’re close enough to everything that matters, but far enough away that you can actually relax. The free parking is honestly a game-changer if you’re planning day trips outside the city, and the staff’s English is solid enough that you won’t find yourself playing charades at the front desk. It’s the kind of place that doesn’t try to be everything to everyone, which means it does what it does quite well.

Best hotels in Shanghai blend sky bar jazz, Michelin dim sum, and spa suites with city views.

  El desayuno ok. Lo unico rescatable de la ubicación fue tener el metro a pocos pasos.
