This hotel is located within or just next to the shopping areas in HuaiHai Road. Don't be fool by its old exterior, walk into the hotel and you will have a totally different experience. I stayed in the Cathay building. Room given was very spacious. Clean, nice and quiet. You can find many eateries around the hotel. Breakfast is in... More

Located just one block from Huahailu, the popular district of Shanghai, the location is exceptional in an enclosed gated garden area. Though taxis are plentiful and inexpensive, two nearby subway lines just blocks away makes it even more convenient. Besides many name brand shops & restaurants, McDonalds is just around the corner, as well as, their inexpensive room service which... More

Good location, spacious room (deluxe), quiet for a good night's sleep. The toiletry could use a little upgrade though. The gym is quite decent (size and machine-wise), and not crowded during my stay. The pool looked nice. The only quibble I had is no wi-fi in rooms. Even in the lobby, you have to pay to have access. Which seems... More

I stayed here for a couple of night early in December 2011 on a business trip. The hotel has several buildings independent each other, as many chinese hotels are. It's one of the oldest hotel in Shanghai, the first building seems to have been built in the '30s. they say it hosted more than 500 foreign Presidents during their visit... More

Stayed two nights for business trip. Selected this hotel over Garden Hotel which is across the road and cost twice as much. Having viewed both I couldn't see much difference. The hotel is located in what appears to be a historic building, so the general environment is classic not modern - however very clean and the room I used appeared... More

I stayed in Jin Jiang for 4 nights and I am very satisfied with the experience. Location is at the edge of French concession, in which I was nto particularly interested but the intersection of two metro lines is nearby and it is a very short ride to the Bund or People's square, for example. The Cathay Garden building is... More

The hotel is huge with all types of rooms. We stayed in the Cathay Gardens. The room was spacious and had twin double beds which were very hard to leave as they were so comfortable. We had a problem with our tour booking while we were still in Australia and the hotel called the tour company a couple of times... More

We stayed 5 nights at the Jin Jiang at the beginning of our holiday in China. We had a spacious and well appointed renovated room on the 7th floor of the Cathay Building, the original 1920s building. Our room was exactly like the ones on the website, and the bed comfortable. Under artificial light there were a few marks on... More
