Hanting Hotel Shanghai Xujiahui East Nandan Road Branch

Aircon in the room and fresh water everyday

Prostitution cards in the hall way and the noise outside

The hotel has a good price/quality ratio. The hotel is situated at walking distance from several subway stations. Xujiahui station (exit 2), but make sure you arrive with Line 1, if you arrive with Line 9 at this station add an additional 10 minutes walk below ground as this station is huge, if you arrive with Line 1 at this station it is about 10 minutes walk. Shanghai Stadium about 5-6 minutes walk, Shanghai Indoor stadium about 10 minutes walk, and Dongan Road (line 7) is about 15 minutes walk. Just behind the hotel there are some restaurants in the immediate area there are lot's of restaurants and shopping options but mostly catered to Chinese. Don't expect to find a western style bar in this area but you have lot's of food options. Staff is very friendly and really try to help you altough they hardly speak English. The room is clean. The shower is good. The breakfast is mainly catered at Chinese but there are some small baozi that is good, some croissants and some sandwhiches. But also outside you can buy great jianbings for only 5 RMB. Options enough. Free umbrella for when it rains also they have. Choose this hotel if you are alone or with friends and you just want to have a good base point for exploring Shanghai but you are not a night owl. Line1 that stops close to the hotel I think last ride is around 01am during weekends.

The checkin process can take a while. But we can't really blame them if they want to accept foreigners in a hotel they have to do a lot of extra handling so we need to be happy they take foreigners in this hotel with a good price/quality ratio.
