Holiday Inn Shanghai Nanjing Road, an IHG Hotel

Location is very central, it's a stone throw along the shopping belt with plenty of shopping malls and eateries. The room were pretty spacious for couple. The breakfast were superb. It has a good blend of chinese cuisines and western dishes too. A very unqiue station is the omelette making station in the form of make shift Volkwagen van. The breakfast location is comfortably located at the entrance of the hotel with very high ceiling good natural lighting. The breakfast areas it's really the heart of the activities every morning. Staff are generally very friendly and very prompt to keep your empty cutlery. Sameer Khan was so nice to offer to make Masala Tea for both my wife and myself for consecutive days. Very nice Masala Tea indeed. Thank you Sameer!

I was super happy by this choice: 1. Excellent location near East Nanjing Metro (line 2) with 4 exits/entrances you can leverage, you can either take this line straight from PVG airport or take Maglev train and ride 1 stop on green line until the hotel. Through the east nanjing road you can stroll all the way to the Bund and see majority of the attractions 2. Big variety and tasty breakfast choices for foreigners 3. Big room, comfy beds with pillows. Room was cleaned everyday, no smell, we stayed in 1918 was rather quite not noisy at times you could hear people walking but it was not disturbing 4. Check in was pleasant and fast with English speaking lady named Ruby. Overall kind personnel. But most importantly there is an Indian English speaking personal on the ground floor restaurant l, he kindly helped us around when needed and even prepared ginger tea to try during our breakfast since he saw I was coughing 5. Do not count much on the WiFi as at least for me it was not working at all however this is at the country level nothing to do with the hotel. My own eSIM was a life saver. This hotel would be definitely my choice if I come back to Shanghai

It’s a great location request high floor the problem not at the hotel fault is that the hotel is in middle off busy area that I requested high floor. But still not high enough because you can’t get privacy leaving the curtain open because theys a flat opposite. I I requested high high floor. But apart from that. Great location. Tips. Make sure you book the right date and can ‘t change mid after heavy it willl cost a night rate. To change. Which I think the hotel should waive it. Cause we did end up came back and stay .
