Shanghai Hills&Chuanyu Inn-Line2,17 Near NECC, Qingpu District Overview

First Impressions

When I first walked into Shanghai Hills&Chuanyu Inn-Line2,17 Near NECC, Qingpu District, I’ll be honest — the name is a bit of a mouthful, but don’t let that throw you off. This three-star property sits in the Hongqiao World Center, and you know what? It’s actually got more character than I expected. The lobby feels modern without being sterile, and the staff genuinely seemed happy to help rather than just going through the motions.

Location & Getting Around

Here’s the thing about staying in Qingpu District — you’re not in the heart of Shanghai, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing. The hotel is practically next door to the National Exhibition and Convention Center, which is perfect if you’re here on business. I mean, you can literally walk there in minutes. The Metro Line 2 connection is solid too, so getting into the city center takes about 45 minutes. Couples seem to really love this spot (the rating speaks for itself), and I can see why — it’s quieter than downtown but still well-connected.

The Room Experience

My room was surprisingly spacious for what you’d expect at this price point. The bed was comfortable enough, and honestly, the air conditioning worked like a dream — which matters more than you might think during Shanghai summers. The bathroom was clean and modern, though nothing fancy. What I appreciated most was the attention to small details, like decent lighting for reading and enough outlets near the bed for all your devices. The furnishings are thoughtfully arranged to maximize comfort and functionality.

Practical Perks

The parking situation here is actually pretty good, which is rare for Shanghai properties in this range. If you’re driving (or taking taxis frequently), that’s a real advantage. There’s also a decent restaurant on-site — nothing spectacular, but the breakfast was fresh and filling. I tried their congee one morning and it was better than expected. The WiFi throughout the building is reliable, and the front desk can help arrange transportation if you need it. The service team is attentive and responsive to guest requests.

Why Guests Love It

Look, this isn’t a flashy hotel, but it gets the fundamentals right. The location rating of 9.5 from recent guests isn’t just marketing fluff — it really is well-positioned if you need to be near NECC or want easy access to both the airport and downtown. The value proposition is solid too. You’re getting clean, comfortable accommodations without paying downtown Shanghai prices. Plus, the area around Hongqiao World Center has some decent dining options and shopping if you want to explore a bit. It’s the kind of place where you sleep well, start your day properly, and don’t feel like you’ve overpaid for the privilege. Returning guests consistently praise the balance of quality and affordability.
