CONCLUSION

I had a very short stay in this hotel as I came around 11:30pm from Shanghai Hongqiao Airport and checked-out at 9am. I was not able to see the offering in the Executive Lounge during happy hour, which according to their website offers exquisite Ala carte menu. Nevertheless, I saw how impressive the breakfast offering was from the Executive Lounge and from the main breakfast restaurant. I also got to check out the indoor pool, jacuzzi, sauna and fitness center. The staff were all very helpful and friendly especially Ivor Li who helped me with booking the Didi taxi to Shanghai Pudong Airport. Overall, it was a very nice stay and a hotel which I would highly recommend if you are looking for an airport hotel near Hongqiao Airport.
