This was the last hotel on our CITS tour of China and it left something to be desired. The two-tier lobby (of which they are VERY proud!) is nice but not useful when you need to go to breakfast on one floor and check out on the other floor. The room was tired and the bathtub was dirty and moldy... More

This hotel was booked as part of our China tour. Unfortunately the hotel is miles from the main city area. We agree with the reviews left by other travellers. The outside of the building looks great as is the foyer and lift lobby but the rest of the hotel is in need of some renovation as it is looking tired... More

Located in the heart of the old shanghai city and its proximity to some of the main trade centres, Galaxy hotel offers very good locational advantage to the business traveller. The size of the rooms are pretty big, but needs some renovation in the Bathroom. A very good work desk and internet are added advantage. The breakfast was very good,... More

Worst hotel on our tour but not a total disaster. Reasonably clean. Mattress totally sagged. Room very tired. Still have not cleaned up the call girls on the top floor. Service non existent. Hotel is a nice building and has possibilities but needs new management and a facelift.

The hotel room is clean. The reception staff is not always pleasant to deal with. The buffet breakfast is great. The corridors have low celing. The carpet on the dining area needs replacement. The location is not good for tourists. It is surrounded by highways, so if you want to explore nearby, there's not much to see. A block away... More

3 nights here, is enough. Views great if you're high enough up. Location is not good, too far from most things - though I was here because it was a five minute walk to where I was meeting people. Good choice of in-house restaurants made staying in at night ok - but I went out. Taxis are so cheap. Got... More
