Shanghai Taikang Road Hotels

"it really depends on which building they put you in. the River View building is the original one, which desperately need an update. for a 5 star hotel, the rooms were so dated and the washrooms were simply gross. view was good but its really not worth the money. "

"Clean room"

"We enjoy the sauna and steam room in the female's spa room. Would've been better if they have jacuzzi too, but only available in the men's."

"Charming "

" The staff are generally nice, but I had a very bad experience with the laundry service. I checked out today and shall talk to them again with the issues through third parties. I asked the laundry room to clean a small pack of my baby’s clothes. The staff recommended that I leave the clothes with them so they could take care of it. I confirmed this with them twice. However, they asked my wife to sign a blank form, and later they charged us 1,800 RMB (about $300) just for washing a small bag of baby clothes. This was a terrible experience. I asked in advance three times about the service, but no one told us how much it would cost. Instead, they had my wife sign a blank form and only showed us the bill afterward. I will speak with them to discuss and resolve this issue."

"Great location, sitting close to a neighborhood with lots of activities and shopping options! The staff in the hotel were very friendly. Nice breakfast covered by the reservation."

"Great hotel to stay at. Nanjing road one block away. Subway line 2 close by and a short walk to the bund. Hotel amenities were great with a nice buffet breakfast."

"Great location very convenient to everywhere. Super nice staff can offer help at anytime room is updated too. "

"Staff were very helpful, pleasant & welcoming. The hotel is next to YuYuan garden, lovely area with lights in the evening, lots of shops nearby for meals & other shopping. Central convenient location for other sights. The hotel is very clean, our stay of 2 nights was pleasant & comfortable. Robot delivered coffee pods for the keurig coffee machine when we ran out. I would definitely return to stay on our next visit to Shanghai. "
