Yes, I think it's still within walking distance to the train station and metro.

I personally don't like that area, but it's your choice.

Days hotel is slightly better than the Holiday inn though both th e locations r not that great either.

thanks a lot to both of you!

Is this hotel new?

Can't find much about it.

And the rate seems to be allright including complimentary breakfast + internet.

Just saw the hotel was opened in the beginning of 2008.

For a planned 22 nights stay the average rate would be 384 + tax.

This doesn't seem bad for me for a new hotel including breakfast an internet.

Are there any candid pictures of the rooms available?

Are the sightseeing attractions reachable by subway?

Hi Holiday inn and Days Hotel r almost quite equidistant to the Shanghai railway Station metro line 1 and 3.Both r relatively new hotels.Locality is not close to most Shanghai attractions though u can travel by metro.Surroundings r compact n busy.However the rate quoted r really reasonable enuf.

Thank you for your answer.

So the hotel is a little bit out of the way but it is no problem getting to the tourists sites with the nearby located subway?

Yes u r rite.Location is not perfect but u can assess by the metro to the different places of attractions though it may be a little out of the way but its connected.Cheers!!!

Thank you very much for your input.

I think i am going to book it, the price seems to be ok.

I thought about getting an appartment, but renting a private one seems a bit risky to me and the commercial retailers charge a lot more.

I do not know that holiday-inn express, but my high school is around that area, so I knew the area well. Lots of bad guys but still considered very safe if you can survive Europe.

Day's In n is very very new and the standard is like Westin or at least W hotel in the united states, although it is days' inn.
