Huangshiqiao Vacations from ￥87,904

Absolutely loved this stay. Just a 10-minute walk to the Bund, with charming old houses along the way. The room was spotless, the bed super comfortable, and I slept like a baby. Great water pressure in the shower. The laundry room on the 4th floor was a huge plus—wash and dry in one go. Nice gym for a quick morning workout, and the rooftop terrace has an amazing view of Lujiazui at night. Front desk staff were friendly, efficient, and even recommended some great local Shanghainese restaurants. Would definitely stay again.

Although the restaurant is on an odd location within the hotel, the food selection is great.

This was an okay place to stay for a night before flying out of PVG, but it wasn't pleasant. My dorm room had no windows and was full of odds and ends (like old foot baths) that didn't seem to belong to anyone in the room. There was a strong odor of cigarette smoke in the men's bathroom and even in my dorm room--someone had clearly been smoking inside. Great location, though.
