Holiday Inn Shanghai Hongqiao Central, an IHG Hotel

I really like predictable quality in Holiday Inn hotels, the bed was super comfortable, every little thing is available like slippers, bath robe, umbrellata, etc. The breakfast was good. But the real gem of this hotel is consierge Peter who was incredible help. He was pro-active, which is 1st time for us travelling many years in China, he offered help with taxi and booked in advance our airport ride, organized parcel dispatch, his English at excellent level and we could not be more happy to have such a kind and professional person helping us. Thank you Peter, you are the best!

You will immediately notice Manner Coffee. Starbucks is across the street. Turn right on that Main Street and walk to the 2nd traffic light. Turn left at the light and the property is a few hundred yards in front of you. You can see it from the corner so you can’t get lost. The desk clerk speaks English and once checked in will connect your phone for you to the hotel’s WiFi. He couldn’t have been more helpful. The room for one person had two single beds. It’s a classy little place. Very modern with a reasonable price, $60 for one night via booking.com. Considering the location in an international city like Shanghai I thought that was excellent!

Hotel located very close to a subway station of line 2 and with many shops, restaurants and coffee shops around it. Very friendly and helpful staff (that's my experience in China when I lived there for 7 years). Excellent breakfast. Although many (electrical) cars in the street of the hotel once inside the hotel it was very quiet.

Nice Breakfast but they provided the same menus every day. Anyway, there was a variety of the menus like European style, Chinese style and Japanese style for us to choose. There was a small supermarket nearby the hotel. That was very convenient.

Great location convenient to everywhere by metro Line 2 and 15. Breakfast is balanced between Western and Chinese dishes, although needs a little more changes from day to day selections, especially during weekends.
