I drove to Shanghai for tourism with my parents in their eighties. I have been to Shanghai countless times on business trips and mostly stayed near Xujiahui Park, so I chose this area again this time. After repeated comparisons, this hotel has parking spaces, is convenient to several attractions, and still lets us…
The hotel has a great location with convenient transportation. The room was clean and tidy, the front desk staff were warm and friendly, and check-in was very quick. Great value for money, and the room came with lots of complimentary drinks. I would choose this place again next time.
It has the heritage of a longstanding hotel, and the front desk service is good.

Good to know
Does this hotel accept foreign guests?
Star-rated hotels — especially chains and anything four-star and above — almost always register foreign passports as routine. Smaller local hotels sometimes lack the foreign-guest license. Since 2024 hotels officially may not refuse foreign guests: if refused, call or SMS 12345. Book refundable when unsure.
How do I get there?
Show the big Chinese name above to any taxi or DiDi driver, or tap Find in Amap for turn-by-turn navigation. The Chinese name is what drivers read — English names are rarely recognized.
What does the star rating mean?
China's official hotel star rating is assessed by tourism authorities (GB/T 14308 standard): ★★★ = comfortable and reliable, ★★★★ = high-end with full services, ★★★★★ = luxury. It certifies quality, not foreign-guest policy — that's why we flag it separately.
How do I pay there?
Set up Alipay or WeChat Pay with your foreign Visa/Mastercard before you fly — QR payments work at virtually every hotel. Foreign credit cards are accepted at the front desk of most star-rated hotels. Full payments guide →
