In addition to its good location, this hotel’s professional and helpful staff and Chinese-style rich breakfast options were major attractions to me and my family. Now it has lost both of the later 2 attractions to me. It is obvious that this property has changed its ownership. Very sad to lose it as a quality option for me.

I stayed here multiple weeks for a trip to visit family in Shanghai, and it was a fantastic home base. The hotel is in an excellent location close to multiple bus stops and between two subway stops on the 8, 10 and 14 lines (Laoximen and Dashinie), making is very convenient to get around. The hotel is also walking distance to shopping areas and well known central neighborhoods in Shanghai. The room had a small fridge (super important for me), and was also large with very comfortable beds, offering plenty of storage and counter space, making it easy to work from the hotel and store big suitcases. The staff were generally quite helpful and kind. The one con, and this is a big one, is that the wifi and mobile signal in the hotel are terrible - it was nearly impossible to work or use my phone, so I had to buy a pocket wifi device to get anything done - which helped, but was still not great since it relies on mobile signal for wifi. Overall, I'd recommend this hotel with the one caveat, and absolutely plan to stay again in the future, but I hope the wifi and mobile signal issues can be resolved.

The “Not so Magnificent International Hotel” last had its hay day when Pamela Ewing drove her Chevrolet Corvette C3 up the gravel drive of Southfork.

Jaded and in need of a good pressure wash and maintenance this hotel retains most of its original features. (Including grubby carpet tiles)

The dusky moldy smell of the room took my breath away when I entered and had me grappling for my asthma puffer. There are definitely problems with damp and drainage in the bathrooms. But that’s to be expected from an aged building that has not been maintained.

Most staff appear to be like disgruntled and run when they see u coming. (Maybe because they cant speak English) From the doorman that doesn’t open doors to the reception staff who simply ignore guests.

The air conditioning only appears to work in the lobby and the rooms. The rest of the place is hot and uncomfortably humid, that includes the breakfast and restaurant area.

If u have low self esteem And don’t mind being treated with distain, like some grubby nostalgia in a reasonable location this might be the place for you.

The low rating of service is due to the deposit policy. The policy requires you to deposit 200rmb and then the staff gives you a note, and threatens to not return the deposit if you do not have the note when checking out (even if you return the key card and leave the room in good conditions).

Guests smoke inside the rooms and it's disgusting. Even if mine was a non-smoking room, I was breathing other people's cigarettes for days. Guests in China don't respect rules, in general, and are too noisy and disrespectful of others. They shout (they don't speak, they SHOUT) and they don't care about the time. Maybe they return shouting at 11pm/1am, they don't mind if other guests are sleeping.

There is no soundproof, was not able to sleep well because of this, for example, even the car on the street could be heard clearly.

The only staff that smiled and communicated politely is the housekeeping staff.

Nice lobby and entrance though the many stairs are not friendly to my elderly parents.

The building hardware has some issues: hot water is brown -- it is visible when collected in the tub.

Windows can't be closed completely to shut out the noise from around the building -- seems there is construction 24/7 there when I was there.

The booking price shows all inclusive with tax and fees but the actual charge more in the name of tax and fees.

I booked a room for 5 nights at this hotel. When we arrived at the hotel we were told that the reservation was canceled via the site and we could not give you room. After 30 minutes we were finally able to book a room. The hotel building was old. Our room was on the 14th floor and we had trouble using the elevator because it was too old. The hotel staff were not friendly.the Safe was broken. Breakfast could not be eaten. But the room was very comfortable and large and clean. The view of the room was very beautiful. The city is spectacular.The hotel location is good. about 20 minutes away from the People square and 5 minutes away from Laoximen metro station (line 8).

Adequate hotle would be an exaggeration

This place was terrible, seriously, it is so bad thinking about it 3 days after I checked out still makes me cringe, I'm so glad it's over. The most unfriendly staff you'll ever come across. Out of the roughly 30 times I walked in and out I was greeted once, I tried making a call back home on my room phone, followed the instructions to the letter, couldn't get through, asked receptionist, shrugged her shoulders, not her problem. No WiFi, told the receptionist, shrugged her shoulders, not her problem.
Free breakfast? No thanks, I'd rather starve. Seriously I'm a frequent traveller, I've stayed in over 200 hotels in the last 5 years and this wins hands down worst hotel I've ever stayed at award. Do yourself a favour and find somewhere else. I wouldn't stay here again if they paid me.

Very nice hotel, comfortable, located in a nice normal and very Chinese area.
I really appreciated the included breakfast buffet which I managed to take advantage of twice.
There is an interesting little place to go look through right nextdoor, a Pet and Flower market.

Only a few minor criticisms - the air-con was not working well in our room, the facade on the wall behind the beds blocked two draws in the wardrobe from opening. The first should be an easy fix but I understand the latter is not.

Complaints from other reviews mentioned smelling a lot of tobacco smoke even on the non-smoking floor, but we had not problems with that.
Other complaints accused the hotel of not being clean, we found it exemplary in cleanliness.

We rented a simple 3-star room and got a very nice room with good service.

How regrettable that this well-situated, imposing property offers so little to the international traveler. For starters, hardly anybody among the staff speaks much English. And, as other guests have noted, what one finds in the rooms and dining area, for instance, does not match the pictures (boiled eggs only for breakfast every single day!! what bellboy?). Front desk staff is generally rude and inefficient, rooms not well-cleaned, and the hotel as a whole appears not to have been remodeled in decades. What a shame as, if well cared for and services improved, this could be a very nice mid-range hotel.

Great piece of history in great location.

Awesome location right in the heart of down town with easy access to the entire city. Walking distance from Xin Tian di. Excellent views of the city, although most of what I saw was construction. Best of all, I got the feeling it was built before the 1990s. When China was less open to the public. It reminded me of the hotel I stayed in, in Prague after the fall of the Soviet Union. There aren't many hotels that give you that pre-captialist feel which I find historical fascinating and consider part of the hotels charm. Having said that, the gym was incredibly communist! They had a weight bench, with no weights, they had a treadmill which was broken, an elliptical which was also broken, and an exercise bike that could barely support my weight, 5'10 180lbs. Would absolutely stay here again!

The hotel is super out dated and gross. As soon as you walk in the door, it smells like cigarettes. Even though the rooms are supposed to be non-smoking, it was super smoky. The carpet looked like it had not been vacuumed ever. I was told our room was a luxury family room that was “updated recently”, it was neither updated nor luxurious. There was mold everywhere in the bathroom. The only decent thing was the view (when it wasn’t smoggy out) and the location was relatively convenient, close (3 blocks) to the subway.

Cheap not nasty, Near to everything

Only stairs on entry luggage has to be done by hand. Receptionist had to handle arrivals & departures on her own Bit slow thats OK. A porter arrived & trolleyed our luggage to the room. I did my own trolleying on departure. 2 lifts rather slow & between 10am & 3pm in use by service staff . Chairs at lift door to sit & wait. Room small for 2 people. Bed firm but comfortable . Furniture old falling to pieces. Bathroom old but clean, shower over Bath tub. Supply of 2 water bottles each day All I wanted was hot showers & good bed. City view good in the night, daytime not so good at ground level. The area is under renewal so this hotel will go shortly, minimum maintenance. Free breakfast: Asian noodles stir fries rice & congie, for the westener toast jam & scrambled eggs. There was bacon 2 days out of the 4 other days was enaemic sausage & sliced spam stuff. Coffee tea & steam buns, 99% of the customers are Asian so thats their diet. They ran out of scramble but they promptly replaced on request. The hotel is on the edge of everything, Just a bit of a walk to town square & the Bund, all handy, cabs are cheap use Didi. Finally the price ranges from $very little to $not a lot depending on when you visit so what do you expect for next to nothing. If you want to complain go some place else & pay through the nose this city is not cheap, I would stay again and trade luxury for price and it is not that bad. Just dont expect rolls royce for rickshaw prices.

It is not a hotel, its more like a high rise motel

Negative welcomed upon my arrival at 7:30pm. The guy didn't looked at me and his facial expression is like attending at a funeral.

The room is air conditioned but its more like a fan blowing than real air conditioning.bathroom floor was covered by hair! Not just one stran but big patch of long hair!

Bathroom Ceiling collapsed and rusty and u can hear water dripping from noqhere all night long!
towels look like used and put on the rack sloppily.

No hand soap, not even a cheap soap bar.

Shower gel and body wash packed in take away soy sauce pouches and u can see the green and orangy colours inside the translucent milky white package. Thank god I brought my own. I didn't even touch the shower cap and tooth brushes and tooth paste as those might be recycled.

Free water bottles available but u can see the water vapor condenses inside the bottles.. Made me wonder how long these water sit in this room cooking... I went and bought my own water instead; I wouldn't bother cooking my own water using the elec tea kettle considering it could be an antique already.

The bed made me itchy all night.

Deformed lamp shades to decorate the room give a mysterious mood; very calming but not appreciated and I had to turn on all lights before I could sleep.

Rude attitude again upon check out, the guy slap the $300 deposit on the counter then walked away without thanking the customer.

It's not a popular hotel so my taxi driver had a hard time getting here..the location is pretty good but that's about it..They gave me a room with 2 beds and it was only me staying plus each of the beds were hard as a rock..thought that was funny. There's free wifi but it's almost nonexistent. I was on for like 20min and then it just didn't work anymore and when I could use it I only went to a few websites because the signal wasn't atring at all..oh and it's a nonsmoking floor and the floor smelled like smoke..nothing cozy about this hotel but if ur looking for a place just to crash and get out then I guess u could do
