In brief
What works, what to weigh
+
Strengths
4 reasons to book- Skyline views from every room — Each room type – from the King Room to the Two-Bedroom Suite – includes a city view, and several reviews call the skyline from the Premium Stateroom King 'stunning' or 'captivating.'
- Attentive, personal service — Guest reviews consistently praise the staff for being friendly and helpful, with one noting a dedicated staff member who organised a special birthday setup.
- Strong dining options — The on-site restaurant serves Cantonese cuisine that multiple guests describe as delicious or authentic, and breakfast is repeatedly called out as a highlight.
- Fine location for exploring Shanghai — A six-minute walk from the World Financial Centre, with the Bund close by, and guests note the central position makes attractions easy to reach.

Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Facilities rating sits below the rest — The hotel’s facilities score of 7.8 is the lowest of the rated categories, suggesting the public areas or some amenities may not match the rooms’ standards.
- General rating is comparatively modest — The 'General' rating of 8.7 is lower than the 9.5 for rooms, indicating some guests found the overall experience not quite as polished.
- Some inconsistency in the experience — One guest felt the view from the window did not match the photos, and another rated the stay lower than most, noting the bathroom as the only plus.
- Limited for families with young children — Cots are available, and there’s a children's buffet, but the hotel otherwise skews toward couples and business travellers – no play area or kids’ club is listed.
