Hotel Description

Nestled in the vibrant heart of Shanghai, the Shanghai Downtown Yi Du B&B stands as a charming three-star accommodation that perfectly balances comfort, convenience, and authentic Chinese hospitality. Located at No.58, Jiaozhou Road in the prestigious Jing’an district, this boutique bed and breakfast has earned an exceptional 9.1 rating from satisfied guests, placing it among the most highly-regarded accommodations in the area. The property’s most coveted feature is perhaps its strategic location—merely 200 meters from Jing’an Temple Subway Station, offering seamless connectivity to Shanghai’s extensive metro network and making the city’s countless attractions easily accessible. Additionally, with a major shopping mall within walking distance, guests enjoy immediate access to retail therapy, dining options, and entertainment venues without venturing far from their temporary home.

The Jing’an district, where the Yi Du B&B is situated, represents one of Shanghai’s most desirable neighborhoods, seamlessly blending traditional Chinese elements with modern cosmopolitan flair. The nearby Jing’an Temple, a Buddhist temple dating back to the Three Kingdoms period (220-280 AD), stands as a serene cultural oasis amidst the urban landscape, offering guests a glimpse into Shanghai’s rich historical tapestry. The 200020 postal code places this accommodation in a premium central location, ideal for both business travelers seeking proximity to Shanghai’s commercial centers and tourists eager to explore the city’s cultural landmarks. The Jiaozhou Road area itself is known for its character-filled lanes, local eateries serving authentic Shanghainese cuisine, and boutique shops that showcase the creative spirit of modern China. Despite its central location, the B&B offers a welcome respite from the bustling energy of Shanghai’s streets, allowing guests to recharge in comfort before their next urban adventure.

What truly sets the Shanghai Downtown Yi Du B&B apart, as reflected in its outstanding 9.1 rating, is its commitment to personalized service within an intimate setting.

• Sy from Singapore – 23 June 2024 (10/10)

  The location is key to everything. A few steps away to a metro station interchange and there are plenty of eateries surrounding the area to get a quick bite or a proper sit down restaurant to rest our legs. The apartment is very clean and the host was very prompt in resolving issues pertaining to the workings of the equipment. There is even Luckin coffee downstairs where I always get a quick cup of coffee every morning. The instructions to check into the apartment were clear as well.
  
  What could be improved: Nothing that I can think of.

• Yin from Canada – 3 June 2024 (10/10)

  It's right next to Jing'an Temple. It only takes 5 minutes to walk to the subway station, Jing'an Temple, Jiuguang Department Store, and 1788. The room also has an amazing view, which is definitely worth recommending. There are plenty of food options nearby, with various cuisines available. The room is spacious, and the living room is big enough for friends to hang out. The three bedrooms are also convenient for resting. I stayed in the bedroom with an attached bathroom. Communication with the landlord was quick and prompt. When I ran out of laundry detergent, they sent me a new one right away. The room is equipped with an umbrella. The disposable items are similar to those in hotels.

• Ky from Canada – 28 May 2024 (10/10)

  The apartment is located in the city center, close to the subway station, about 200 meters away. The house is clean and tidy, and the owner gives us many helpful suggestions.
