Booked the hotel at a good web rate via agoda. They're more expensive if you book through them direct. Rooms are small but clean and came with a balcony. Bathroom is almost as big as the room. WiFi is not included in the room rate, you have to pay extra daily rate for it and it's spotty. There's free WiFi... More

This hotel is situated on a really big road, bit far away from most things, except good breakfast joints (KFC, McDonalds and Pizza Hut), The staff spoke very little English and not very helpful. The rooms were pretty good and included everything we needed, including bath robes, and slippers. We were fortunate enough to have a corner room so out... More

On the deposit is not stated on the website and it has become a huge problem for us. After that, the next problem was the hype... More

Stayed in the serviced apartments for a few months. Place is 30% cheaper than similar appartments so you can expect some cost saving tactics from the hotel. Furniture is cheap and breaks easy. TV is poor quality, though I have to admit they did change one out for a better quality tv. Good selection of tv channels, good wifi and... More

Good locatation for a business hotel. Metro is near and a 10 minute taxi ride will leave you at Xin Tian Di. Rooms are confortable without any further luxury. Concierge is very helpful, maps available for geeting around Shanghai.

Breakfast was terrible. The hotel served one month expired yogurt. There was non-smoking sign at the lobby. Chinese ppl were smoking. Even they smoked inside the lift. But none of staffs said "no". Bathroom was too cold to have a shower.

I stayed at the Rayfont for 2 months over December 2012/January 2013. I was very pleased with my experience. The rooms were well maintained and seemed fairly new - the apartments were cleaned twice a week. The front desk staff had limited English but it was enough for simple requests - they were not able to give directions though. The... More

This is by far the worst hotel I stayed recently. Service is just not existent. When I asked for the meeting rooms (which are in the basement labyrinth) all I got from the front desk staff was "haeh?". Despite no smoking signs people are smoking everywhere and staff doesn't care at all. The room layout was nice, with a good... More

Easy access to french concession area with around 20 RMB taxi. Tianzifang is nearby, as well as other metro stations. It's cheap to take taxi to any of the attractions and dining place around. I'll choose this hotel if I stop by the city next time.

My wife and I stayed here for 13 nights and were very disappointed with the overall experience. This hotel does NOT have a swimming pool or gym as advertised - the facilities are in a totally different building away from the hotel itself, so after a workout or swim, you will be walking in the cold ( this time of...
