My wife and I stayed here for five days recently. After our taxi ride from airport the front desk staff were very helpful as we suspected that we were being overcharged by the taxi driver.Before paying we checked with lobby staff and they confirmed that we were overcharged and negotiated with driver on our behalf. At the time of writing,... More

Everything was perfect, from the food to the staff to the venue, and especially Anna, who was accommodating, courteous, friendly, professional, flexible, and all-around wonderful to work with! The author that was the featured star of our Fancy Nancy Tea Adventure asked if she could come back on an annual basis because out of the hundreds of teas she’s attended... More

Cool location next to the Bund, and walking distance to markets and shopping. The rooms are a bit dated, but at least they're clean, large, and fairly comfortable. But that's about all this place has to offer. The service here is terrible! For check in, things were frustrating. We asked for an extra bed, and they guy laughed at us.... More

Been at this hotel twice. Both times in a business king suite. It is a bit tired and dingy, but hotel well located. Fairly clean. A good in and out hotel, but not 5 or 4 stars. Always a lot of smokers in the hotel. Note that the business king suites do not have bund views. That was I was... More

Booked an executive room and was alloted a room on the 27th floor with a bund view. I thought it was the best view possible in Shanghai Puxi area. We just loved the view. Both at the sunrise and the night view was awesome. Breakfast has good spread. It was a mix of western and chinese food with some very... More

This hotel has the benefit of a great location & awesome views of the pudong skyline from the room & 32nd floor bar. Easy walking distance to the bund, people's square, yuyuan garden and subway stations. The hotel is a little past its prime and you can see that it was once a very grand establishment. The rooms are so... More

The rooms at this hotel are mini suites and quite spacious. The style is French empire and a bit faded grandeur. But OK. The lobby continues the empire style...marble abounds. The weakest aspect of the hotel is the breakfast buffet which by modern standards was poor. There was quite a bit of choice and an omlette station but the quality... More

The Salvo has a great location - we love to walk, and were able to walk from here to many different interesting places around Shanghai. It is close to the Bund Center, a very tall building with a flower shaped top, easily visible from many places around Shanghai and so we found our way back 'home' relatively easily. It's also...

Great location as near the Metro and Nanjinglu Shopping center. But the staff needs to be trained in simple courtesy and basic English. They are rude and they seem not to understand English when we are asking for directions. Simple directions like, "How do we get to Shanghai Expo?" Blank stare. A simple, I am sorry would have made things... More
