This hotel has the benefit of a great location & awesome views of the pudong skyline from the room & 32nd floor bar. Easy walking distance to the bund, people's square, yuyuan garden and subway stations. The hotel is a little past its prime and you can see that it was once a very grand establishment. The rooms are so... More

The rooms at this hotel are mini suites and quite spacious. The style is French empire and a bit faded grandeur. But OK. The lobby continues the empire style...marble abounds. The weakest aspect of the hotel is the breakfast buffet which by modern standards was poor. There was quite a bit of choice and an omlette station but the quality... More

The Salvo has a great location - we love to walk, and were able to walk from here to many different interesting places around Shanghai. It is close to the Bund Center, a very tall building with a flower shaped top, easily visible from many places around Shanghai and so we found our way back 'home' relatively easily. It's also...

Great location as near the Metro and Nanjinglu Shopping center. But the staff needs to be trained in simple courtesy and basic English. They are rude and they seem not to understand English when we are asking for directions. Simple directions like, "How do we get to Shanghai Expo?" Blank stare. A simple, I am sorry would have made things... More

travelling for business, location is incredibily convenient : 5 min walk either to Nanjing rd., bund walk or people square I had a superior room with spectacular bund view Breakfast room is as well spectacular, while breakfast food is nothing exiting Clean and nice forniture, old style but new construction Price absolutely reasonable for all good things above.

Old chinese hotel in an excellent location with the worst breakfast I've ever had. The rooms are actually quite good although a bit dated, there's a separate seating area and desk even in standard rooms, large bathroom and the location of the hotel is fantastic, just a few minutes walk from the Bund, Nanjing Road, M1NT, Bar Rouge and just...

We booked this after reading reviews on Tripadvisor and because it matched our criteria for location (near the Bund and People's Square) and price. We had a twin business executive suite on the 13th floor with city views (river views are apparently not available for any twin rooms). The room was nicely furnished in a traditional style with a slightly... More

this hotel is located well in shanghai touristy area. the Nanjing pedestrian market is 5 minutes walk away.the bund is also the same.the people`s square is also nearby and walkable.but the old quarters,opposite and around the hotel gives an uncomfortable feeling,as if one is staying in shanghai of 50 years ago.the open display of meat shops nearby is unsettling. but...

Stayed there for three nights. Takes a 5 minutes walk from East Nanjing Rd metro station to the hotel. Local vendors in the vincinity. Another 5 minutes walk to the Bund. Great views if you have the business executive rooms, better value is to take the 5 minutes walk, though. Breakfast has lots of room to improve, especially when you... More
