Compared to a few other hotels I've had to stay in Shanghai, the Crowne Plaza is a good selection. The location is in a fairly quiet street, near Huating Lu, good for shopping. I was not able to check any of the services the hotel offered, as I was mostly in and out of the hotel late/early, as my schedule... more

We stayed at this hotel as part of a group tour of China. I was a little concerned about staying here at first, because on a map it seemed kind of far from the places we'd want to visit in Shanghai (i.e, museums, the Bund, the Pudong area, and the Old Town). One of the advantages, though, of going with... more

Intro - I have stayed at this hotel during many visits since 2005. Due to my changing work locations, I just stuck to the "old formula" of staying in a familiar location. Location and Logistics - This specific Crown Plaza is situated on a secondary road (Pan Yu Lu) which connects to the Yanan Elevated Road (S). - It is... more

Both the service and the rooms at the hotel were good. The location of the hotel is in more of a residential district. It surrounded by several shops and restaurants which was convenient, but since it is not in the "touristy" parts, you will need to know some basic mandarin to get by. more

The staffs are very friendly to our foreigners, in particular, some of them can speak English such fluently as they could answer my any... more

My recent stay in new renovated Crown Plaza Shanghai was a wonderful experience. Booked through hotel directly with a resonable rate because of the winter pomotion, efficient check-in as usual. It's not a new hotel but staff is very friendly and willing to help you wheneven you need. Room is nice and clean, with all facility and space you expect... more

I have stayed at the Crowne Plaza a number of times over the last few years and have to say some of the rooms are starting to look quite tired and shabby. I was initially put in a room (on the sixth floor) with very little furniture and quite a threadbare carpet. I had to contact reception to get international... more

This was my most unfortunate stay with an Intercontinental Hotels chain property around the world. My stays at the China Holiday Inns have been much better. And of course, the Intercontinental Hotel stays have been great to exceptional. The check-in was ok, upgraded to a deluxe room, which was not deluxe in any sense. It was a very dated (early... more
