High quality service at a fair price.
The hotel met our expectations throughout our two week stay. The room with 2 double beds where we stayed the first week was spacious however the beds were a bit firm. The rooms with the king size bed differ in size depending on their location. The pool and gym were fantastic. The staff is very friendly and helpful especially the concierge who ordered taxies for us and made sure the driver understood where to take us and Selma from reception who took efficient care of a rservation for an extra night for our children. Excellent daily housekeeping was provided and any request or problem was handled immediately. Breakfast offered a good variety of choices.

Just about average
I booked a double room but when I checked in they had sold out so I was only offered a single room. There was a sign saying building work was being carried out until 12.30pm every day butbtye noise went on well in to the afternoon. Also the walls where very thin, you could hear conversations and TV in the next room

Fairly good.
check-in and check-out pretty smooth. Size of room is good but general cleanliness is not so good. For example, the bed sheet was not change everyday, the room was not vacuum everyday. Sound insulation not so good (can hear sound from TV from next room). The gym and swimming pool is ok. The location is not as good. The nearest subway is about 800m away. There are no nearby food stalls available (within 500m) except one convenient store next to the hotel. The Chinese restaurant on level 1 is pretty good though. Dine there twice and good commence by my quests.

I stayed for couple of nights and it was pleasant. I guess the hotel has been renovated or the hotel chain took over an older hotel and updated the facilities. The toilet is a little cheap for a 4 star hotel. Otherwise it is pretty clean.

Business Trip
I noticed their price has come down, so I stayed at this hotel compare to my usual hotel in Shanghai. You get what you pay for with the Holiday Inn brand. But, what the same price, I can stay at a newer hotel in the same area. I guess the consistency is why I gave them the 4 stars.

Convenient location & friendly and smiley staff
Even though the staff's English isn't the greatest in the world they still try to do the absolute best that they can in order to provide you with the best service. It was much appreciated. They also went out of their way to help me get to where I wanted to go without having to deal with the stress and confusion that can sometimes come with hiring a taxi. The area was conveniently located and close to some great restaurants and bars. The room was clean and comfortable. Booked twice in one week since I was satisfied with the service provided during the first part of my stay.

Good for Business trevellers
Nice hotel, staffs are friendly and helpful. I needed a late check out and they allowed me to stay until 3PM. But I am not sure about one thing.....the used towels in the bathroom. Do they just fold back the used ones or do they put clean towels?? No air condition in April..... There are regular restaurants around--nothing special. But the 24 room service is not bad. Hotel breakfast buffet is nothing special. Language was not a major issue here. For regular tourists, this may NOT be a great location. Bund is 20 mins drive- about RMB 40-50 by taxi, Airport is 1 hour cost RMB 200. City Center is about 3 miles. There are couple of Halal restaurants nearby and historical Huxi Mosque is only 10 mins walk from the hotel.

Exceptionally friendly staff
The Customer Service provided by Doris, Front Office Manager was outstanding - had a small issue with the room's A/C and the shower; without any hesitation was upgraded to a full Suite so that the stay could proceed with no further inconveniences. Alan, the Food Services Manager, Mark and Silence were very attentive during meals and went out of their way to ensure the food was well presented and tasted good. The level of service here at this property is exceptional and no effort is spared to please guests. I would recommend this Hotel to future travelers.
