"Decent location and clean, but the "Deluxe" room feels basic for a comfortable stay and the hotel decor is tired. I recently stayed at Dorsett Shanghai and had a mixed experience. On the positive side, the location was convenient to get from Hongipou high speed train / to Shanghai PVG /accessing tourist areas on line 2, the check-in process was smooth, the room was tidy and staff are very helpful. However, the room fell short on comfort for a truly relaxing stay. There was no bathrobes...

Nostalgia S Hotel(Shanghai Railway Station )"Room was nice, clean and spacious all the amenities were great. The staff I interacted with even though we had a language barrier were very nice and accommodating. They even helped us get our lugagge shipped to chengdu while we were outside shopping. We mostly took didi's but noticed on the last day that metro station was extremely close. I would definitely stay here again when visiting Shanghai."
