Everything was beyond expectations. I say this as a customer, a hotel owner customer. I recommend Holiday Inn Express on the Bund, for its services, decent prices and last but not least, for its location.

Very good hotel, we loved it! It has a good location, near the metro station and you can reach any popular place quickly. Service is perfect, food is mostly Chinese, but you will also find some European food at breakfast and dinner. Rooms are big, clean. We would like to recommend this hotel!

Absolutely fantastic place. I have had to catch flights early in the morning or late in the evening multiple times at Shanghai Pudong airport and I always had to stay at a hotel which is not located in the airport itself. To my surprise, I decided to give it a go at the Holiday Inn and I was blown away by this hotel. It's conveniently located between terminal 1 and 2, so no need to exit the airport. The facilities are brand new, the hotel is extremely clean, the rooms are huge and they even let you "park" your trolley outside the room so you don't have to drag your luggage around when you have to catch your flight. The staff were super helpful and I was very impressed by this new hotel. I have stayed in more hotels in China than I can count and I will definitely stay here again.

Everything was perfect. The facility appears to be new and clean. The staff is very friendly; I enjoyed an early check-in and a complimentary breakfast for free. There is also a free supper after 9 PM (I didn’t realize that when I reserved my room). The location is very central and the price is reasonable in my opinion, even if I don’t have terms of comparison in the same area.

We stayed in two different amenities due to a coinciding booking issue with another family. Initially we stayed in the room we chose for 4 people and then we stayed in two separate rooms. All accommodations are great. Excellent comfort, cleanliness and space. We spent our stay in winter and both the room cooling and hot water worked perfectly providing comfort even on the coldest days. But the highlight of the stay was the hospitality of the staff and all the help they provided. Even though we don't speak Chinese, the team was able to provide us with all the help we needed, such as travel, information about local attractions and even food delivery. Our experience was undoubtedly unique and unforgettable.

This definitely deserves a full ten-star rating! From the very beginning of contact, I felt nothing but professionalism and care. Lemon was really kind and helpful. Every detail was handled impeccably, making the experience absolutely top-notch. Both the service attitude and the final result exceeded all expectations, and there wasn't a single flaw to be found. Such a high standard is definitely worthy of everyone's choice. I sincerely recommend it, thank you for bringing such a wonderful experience. I will always support it and recommend it to friends around me! Thanks again!
