Rough Guide's description of this hotel as an "ugly lump" of a building is harsh although the art deco exterior building (constructed in the 1930s) is not to everyone's taste. I think it would be more accurate to describe it as as imposing facade. I thought this hotel was a real gem. It's located on the north end of the... more

The Broadway Mansions in Shanghai was built in 1934 and has recently been refurbished in modern Art Deco style. Situated close to The Bund and within walking distance of Nanjing Pedestrian Street. What a pleasant experience after our disaster at The Bund Riverside Hotel. Here everything was spotless and state of the art. Rooms were well equiped with amenities. The... more

We stayed at the Broadway for 5 nights and honestly I must say this was one of the best hotels we've ever stayed at. All the staff spoke English, they were always friendly and polite and very helpful. They called the airline to confirm our flight when we checked out. They wrote our sightseeing destinations in Chinese for us and... more

Like: - prime locaton on the famous bund street (though during my stay, the city is renovating the bund for 2010 SH Exhibition event, making ALL hotels on/around bund a huge construction site) - well-preserved old-time charm - solid isolation, i mean sound proof: we stayed on 7th floor, construciotn outside went on 24hrs, when we opened the window, it... more

The hotel staff were friendly and helpful and they were eager to please their guests. I was happy with the hotel and I would return again. I have... more

Problem was TV and Air did not work properly 1st night. Went and called the frount desk 3 times. It was the maid in the hallway that got... more

I recently stayed at Broadway Mansions hotel for 5 nights. The room was clean and comfortable and the view was stunning. The staff were friendly and spoke enough English to understand. The hotel is a little isolated and you should be prepared to walk to the main tourist areas ( 10-15 minutes ) . Even when taking a cab be... more

Stayed October 11-20, 2008 in Room 811 with views of Souzhou Creek and Huangpu River. Very clean and comfortable room with plasma TV and large modern bathroom with tub and walk-in shower.Excellent buffet breakfast selections. Very pleasant and helpful staff. All in all, I can emphatically recommend this hotel! more

Our room was on the 15th floor, facing the Bund. The view was awesome. There is a construction right in front of the hotel, so if you need to take a nap during the day, it’s very noisy. The breakfast was not included, so we had breakfast outside of the hotel. The hotel bar is very expensive comparing to the... more
