“I was sleeping in a dessert with poor ventilation throughout my stay.”
The aircond in my room was not working, we were given a standing fan on the first night and the fan is equally weak and almost zero fanning. We did not request for more at the end and it was really troublesome to change a room.

“Nice place overall”
The service is high quality. Even though the staffs have little to no knowledge of English, the communication still runs smoothly with the help of translators!

This was truly an exceptional stay! The staff were incredibly friendly and always ready to help, making the whole experience feel warm and welcoming. The room was immaculate, comfortable, and offered breathtaking views. Mornings were a real treat thanks to the delicious and well-prepared breakfasts. The hotel’s location was ideal — quiet, yet conveniently close to all main attractions. Would definitely stay here again!

“Perfect stay in Inter Continental Shanghai Expo by IHG”
The hotel is very nice! You enter and in front of you is an incredibly wide, spacious and beautiful lobby. The staff is friendly and helpful. The room is wide with a comfortable, large bed. The bathroom is also very large and the toilet is elegant. The breakfast is very rich, there is everything, even things to eat that you don't think of. It is worth the price - quality!

“Besides the issues I mentioned, it is definitely a place worth staying in Shanghai!”
I specifically selected this hotel not only because it felt price wise to me, but also because it was conveniently located near Huangpu river which makes it a suitable starting point to ride by bicycle at night. Instead of going to the bund, which is generally too crowded, to check out the amazing view of Shanghai city, the same can be done through what i proposed which I personally prefer. Additionally, the facilities available in this hotel, especially the lounge area located on 26th floor boasts of an amazing view of shanghai city both during the day and night time. I am definitely looking forward to come again in the near future!
