Reviews

• 瑜 from China – 16 December 2024 (9/10)

  Clean and well-furnished room with much sunshine!
  
  What could be improved: I wish stay a couple of days more!

• Akriti075 from India – 20 November 2024 (8/10)

  Great Location, close to the Bund (not on the Bund). Rooms are comfortable and spacious. Good breakfast.
  
  What could be improved: Why is there no (opaque) door on the toilet!? or a curtain on the bathroom window? There are places you need privacy even from your partner 😀

• Fangbin from Australia – 8 November 2024 (8/10)

  The staff were attentive, professional and accomodating.
  Much appreciated the complimentary fruit platter.
  
  What could be improved: The aircon system was sucks and so hot during my stay

• Henriette from United Kingdom – 1 October 2023 (9/10)

  Close to North Bund and the ferry station to Pudong. Also walking distance to Raffles city Shopping Center. Very comfortable, clean and spacious room. For Jing’an or FFC it is easiest to take a taxi. There is currently a large building site behind the hotel, so I was given a room facing the side towards the river.

• Dewi from Netherlands – 11 August 2023 (8/10)

  The hotel is perfectly located within walking distance from the Bund. The location is quiet, and there are enough restaurants within 5-10 min. Walk
  
  What could be improved: The beds are hard

• Sutini from Singapore – 31 December 2024 (7/10)

  The hotel’s prime location was highly convenient, but the standout feature was the thoughtfully designed bathroom amenities. The heated toilet seat, along with adjustable front and rear wash functions and an integrated heater, added a level of sophistication and comfort that elevated the overall experience
  
  What could be improved: While the hotel appears to have undergone renovations, the wooden furniture retains a rustic and classic aesthetic, leaving it unclear whether this was intentional or if the pieces are remnants from the past. Additionally, being a classic building, the room’s ceiling height is relatively low, and the mattress could be upgraded to meet the comfort standards expected of a quality hotel.
