Bad service at the front office
The front office outrightly rejected the request for check-in at 12noon citing only that check-in time is at 2pm. The reception did not even bother to check whether any rooms are available. Guests from overseas do frequently arrived at odd hours of the day. Some improvements required for the front office staff to handle such requests more tactfully. And when it was time to check-in at 2pm, the front office staff are overwhelmed with the long-queue of hotel guests checking-in all at the same time. Adequate staffing should be deployed to ensure smooth check-in by guests.

Great place to stay in Shanghai
Great hotel in the heart of Shanghai, less than 5 min walk from the pedestrian street and metro station with line direct to Pudong Airport. Rooms were large, well appointed, and very comfortable. Buffet breakfast had a large variety of western and asian food. Would recommend this hotel.
