The unit has an epic view of the river, which is the best of the whole experience. The bad experience can start with a bad wifi connection. the power outlet on the office desk section is broken. Hence they have to provide the power extension core. Also the fridge is not working as well. Not to mention, somehow the AC was set at 30 degrees, which is hot as hell and cannot be changed and I have to call in a repairs guy. Overall not a terrible experience but definitely did not hold up to its standard.

The view was fantastic, the in room hot tub was clean and well maintained, and the staff was helpful and friendly. They also did not nickle and dime the guests for every little thing. You definitely get what you pay for at this hotel, and I wouldn't hesitate to stay there again, especially for a special occasion.

The location is not ideal because it is far away from major shopping centers and you have no night life by staying in this hotel although you get breathtaking views from every room. Checked in way before 3 pm and the staff delivered my luggages to the room even before I got the room keys. The shower room floor was slightly slanted resulting in water accumulation after shower. The hotel upgraded my room to a higher floor and better viewed room right after I reported the shower floor problem. Excellent management and response to customer service. Double sink counter with everything you can think of. The flappers are in a nice bag and can be used as a gift. Soft drinks in the room mini fridge are free. There is also a nice tea set for people who love drink tea. Automatic toilet makes going to bathroom a joyful learning experience.

Spacious room
We booked a river view room for our stay and indeed we were given one, however we saw most of the roof top of other buildings more than the river given that ours were on the 3rd floor. The service was mediocre given the standard expected from such hotel. Check in staff were professional but when we did an early check out on our last day, the staff was just sleeping on the desk. There was no apology even after we tried to wake her up, or even a simple concern about our stay. The location of the hotel is quite out of the way as well. There doesn’t seems to be any decent restaurants or shops within 0.5km from the hotel. Nonetheless, the room was really spacious and amenities were splendid.

Lovely hotel and excellent room
Lovely hotel on the banks of the river with a lovely view across the Bund. Stayed in a room with a large pool which was excellent at night to relax in with a great view across the city. The standard or the service was high. Would recommend.

My stay was horrible and I couldn’t wait to leave.
Everyone in this hotel is incompetent. Such confusion I have never seen. To say this hotel is on the Bund is misleading - it is on the North Bund which is 1 mile from any life, restaurant or activity. The view is to the backside of PuDong skyline! The place is dead. Breakfast is a disaster. No service.

WORST FOOD I HAVE EVER HAD IN A HOTEL
We went fior a staycation, and I have never written a review for any excellent or horrible stays in any of the resorts, hotels because even if the stay is bad, it's just bad. THIS HOTEL FOOD WAS ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING for any restaurant, let alone a hotel, and our room was over $500!!! They served frozen fried Japanese chicken with sugar and when we asked them why it was so cold, the so-called "chef" told us that it was Japanese as if we had come to the hotel from some cave and had never eaten Japanese food or lived there or visited. My two children and I walked out of the meal and my husband told them that we could not eat the food but they still made us pay for 70% of the food - they gave us a "discount" of 30 percent which was ridiculous because we did not eat it! Then we had to order disgusting room service because kids were hungry - the burger and fries were the best bet and we survived. The next morning, we paid again for their breakfast buffet because everyone was hungry and from a quick glance, it looked one thousand percent better than what we had the evening prior. But nope, we were duped yet again. If it weren't for the amazing room with the panorama view and the pool inside the room - we would have had a huge fight with the staff. The staff is oblivious to English because I told our hotel attendant who took care of me during checkout that it was the most disgusting hotel food I have ever had, he said "thank you." I was pretty speechless.

Excellent hotel with breathtaking view
Arrived early and the room was not available. Offered upgrade with a minimal fee of only $50. The new room has a panoramic view of Huangpu river. You can lay back in the huge tub next to the window and immerse yourself in the breathtaking view. There is separate shower and toilets. The toilet is fully automatic. However, the hotel is located in an old neighborhood when there will be construction to make it a totally different one. It is extremely difficult to find taxi unless you know and have the capability to order a “Didi” (Uber’s Chinese version). Shopping and other activities are not within walking distance. In summary, this hotel is for high-end customers who have private vehicles that can get them to where they would like to go.
