The Sukhothai Shanghai

LikedThe room was fine, very comfortable beds, enough space to put away things etc. The hotel has a very good gym and a huge pool for real swimming, please be aware that you need to bring a swimming cap or buy their extremely overpriced one. The staff generally speaks good English so communication was fine. Location wise it's perfect, a super good mall right next to it with lots of options for eating, and easy for cabs to drive anywhere.

DislikedBreakfast in Chinese 5 star hotels is generally overpriced, so we always go out for breakfast, or order room service breakfast à la carte. This hotel did not offer this option, but luckily there is a very good mall right next to it, with lots of good options. While the room was generally very comfortable, with a great bed, a big shower and a a tub, note that it's a "no privacy bathroom" room. In this case, only a mirror separating the sleeping area from the basin/toilet area, meaning that going to the loo in the middle of the night will wake up your partner (somewhat noisy Japanese style automated).

LikedGreat breakfast and good gym. The room is very comfortable and good size.

LikedThe location was peaceful while being central. Our room was on the higher floor. The bed was very comfortable, the shower and bed were great. We enjoyed having a coffee in the room before partaking into the wonderful breakfast.

LikedThis hotel offers an excellent location, making it easy to explore nearby attractions, restaurants, and transport options.

LikedBig rooms , clean , comfortable sleep. The hotel is next to tai Koo li mall which has plenty of eating options . We liked the location . There is big gym and indoor pool.

DislikedLobby was a bit dark

LikedEverything : locations , facilities , food and the employees are very kind.

Disliked3 points : 1.front desk do not speak English well . There was only 2 persons that I could understand . 2. There is a connection directly to the mall that leads you to 3 subway lines and nobody told me . I discovered it by myself reading another client review. 3. Asked where could I exchange money .No one knew it !!! The mall concierge was the one that helped me : there is a Bank of Chine brand on the business building on the mall . Very convenient and easy but hotel employees do not know it.

LikedWe especially enjoyed the location just opposite of a brand new luxury shopping mall with a great choice of restaurants and top brands, including the Louis Vuitton exhibition (cruise ship). It is also within walking distance to many tourist hot spots and interesting neighborhoods. Great recommendation to explore the city.

LikedNice, large and perfectly clean room. Free non-alcoholic drinks from the fridge in the room, that gets refilled daily, plus two bottles of water. The staff was extremely nice and helpful. The location is also great, as it is close to a metro station with multiple lines, including line 2, which connects directly to two airports (including Pudong International Airport) and the high-speed railway station. It is also located next to a large mall with many shops and restaurants, and great cafes and bubble tea stores.

DislikedBasically nothing. To nitpick: The king-size bed has only one large blanket and the pillows were not great for me (this is subjective, my wife did not have a problem with the pillows).
