Location - the hotel is situated near Pudong ave MRT (2 min walk). However, there is construction work around the hotel so it can get a bit chaotic. The entrance of the hotel is also very hard to find but once you are inside, it is like a completely different world. Rooms- the room I stayed at was spacious and clean. The decoration was minimalist which I like. The king size bed was super comfy - probably more comfy than some 5 stars hotels I have stayed at. Shower and toilet was separated and shower pressure was good. The amenities are from Salvatore ferragamo and I just love the smell of the body lotions they have! The bad- The room has a number of windows but they were all facing other rooms/corridors so there is not really any privacy unless you pull the blinds down. No international tv channels- only Chinese satellite channels. No lift and narrow staircases, might be difficult if you have heavy luggage and staying on second floor Others- the breakfast was traditional Chinese and quite tasty. I don’t think there is a gym on site but you can walk to bin jiang ave which faces houng pu jiang (ie other side of the bund) and they have an excellent jogging track that leads you all the way to lujiazui. Highly recommended to go there even just for a walk as the views are amazing and not that many tourists know of the place so if you go early you can have the place all to yourself :)
