Maixinge Boutique Hotel (Shanghai Oriental Pearl Tower) recensioner

I stayed twice here. Location is excellent, you can literally see the hotel after exiting Yuanshen station exit 4. It is only around 15 mins away from the bund, 1hr away from Shanghai south, and Shanghai Huaqiao railway station via metro. 1.25hrs away from Pudong airport via metro. There are a lot of restaurants nearby but not that near (around 2 blocks). Lawson convenience store is also right beside the hotel. Room is very clean and comfortable. There are slight signs of it being old but it was not a problem for us. Shower pressure is very strong, along with hot water. It was very cold outside. During my first stay, it reached 30 degrees celisus outside. The airconditioner was able to cope up with the hot weather. And on my 2nd stay it went down to 7 degrees celsius. The heater mode of the aircon also worked perfectly. Service is also good, and service crew very nice. Also, breakfast is excellent..the choice of food they serve is good as it can cater to both adults and children. They provide free unlimited bottled water, and also provide fruits daily. One thing to note is that breakfast area is small, and there will be times when someone will share a seat with you. TV is also ok. Had the standard set of Chinese channels and one English channel (CGTN) For the price I paid, it is more than worth it, and I would highly recommend. PS: There is a dumpling store nearby called Shandong dumplings and we are there 3 times.
