My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The room was spacious and met our needs perfectly with a great view of the entrance. However, the service was a bit lacking as they didn't seem interested in addressing our concern swiftly. The location, on the other hand, provided a nice mix of local markets and boutiques, offering a quiet retreat from the bustling areas around East Nanjing Rd and the Bund.

Staying at this hotel was a great experience overall. The rooms with oriental furniture had a cozy vibe, perfect for a rainy day. The service was exceptional, particularly the staff at the reception desk who assisted us with a flight issue. The location in the French Concession was charming and convenient for exploring the city. The dining options were satisfying, especially with the hotel's high standards and enjoyable breakfast buffet.
