Great place to stay. Amazing location, right in the centre of where you wanted to be. We walked to a lot of the attractions. Close by to the main shopping street.
Good rooms. Very expensive laundry service.
The room was very spacious and clean. Staff spoke English and were very helpful with any questions. Check in and check out was very quick and simple. The hotel is very close to Nanjing road about a couple minutes walking distance which is great if you like shopping. There is a family mart and Lawsons a couple of minutes walking distance from the hotel which was great. Would recommend to family and friends.
situated directly at Nanjing Street; excellent service; fantastic room and laundery service, quiet rooms, clean, great breakfast - we have been there for two and a half weeks and enjoyed it so very much. Absolute recommendable.
We had a very pleasant stay at Central Hotel Shanghai. The hotel is clean, comfortable, and conveniently located close to many attractions, shopping, and restaurants, which made it very easy for us to get around.
Our room was clean and comfortable, and the check-in and check-out process was reasonable and smooth. We did have a small issue with the shower drainage, but after we contacted the front desk, someone was sent to our room right away and took care of the problem promptly.
Overall, we were happy with our stay. The convenient location, cleanliness, and quick response from the staff made our experience a good one. We would consider staying here again on a future visit to Shanghai.
I loved my stay at Central Hotel! Great location, awesome spacious room, all necessities provided, and the staff is so helpful and friendly, they left me nothing to worry about. First time in China, this was such a treat, absolutely fabulous!
Great hotel, right in the center of everything, walking distance to big walking street with shops and restaurants.
One thing we noticed, hotel staffs have 1 same tune trying to get every guest to upgrade their rooms with extra charges. They would start by saying: "your room is not ready, but we have a bigger room with free breakfast if you upgrade and pay 250+ yuan extra...". If you want to stick with your originally booking then just say NO.
Our stay at Central Hotel Shanghai was great. The staff is very kind, and they always provide water, which I really appreciate as a tourist.
The only thing I would complain about is that there is no self-service laundry. Laundry service is provided by the cleaning staff, which is a little expensive. Despite the price, my main concern is that I prefer to take care of my own clothes.
Also, the protein options at the breakfast buffet were somewhat limited.
I would rate my stay 4 out of 5 stars this time. I hope to come back again!
Clean room everyday. Friendly staff. Breakfast was great. Everyday staff come and check if we have laundry. Perfect location, just minutes walk to nanjing pedestrian street. Highly recommended
Great service and we got a very spacious room. Very clean and felt very accommodating. Close to the subway with great connections for all parts of the city. Can only recommend.
The room is clean and space is great. Location is wonderful. The only thing we concern is the elevator did not use key security. That means any outsider can enter the elevator and come into your hallway.
