    Comfort and Convenience in a Prime Location

    I had a delightful stay, with the staff promptly arranging transport when my taxi failed to arrive. Enjoyed a relaxing evening in the well-appointed lounge while sampling tasty Chinese and Western dishes. Don't miss the nearby shopping and eateries. everything is within walking distance!

    The essentials, minus the fluff

    Spent ten nights in a clean and comfortable room with friendly staff, even with my limited Chinese. The breakfast spread was varied and delicious, and the spa was a delightful addition. Plus, I appreciated the hotel's eco-friendly initiatives. A perfect base for exploring further!

    great value
    wedding service

    This place was just a prime choice for a fleeting stay in Shanghai with great value for the money. They even charged us for a bottle of water at a wedding, showing how cheap they can be. Just be ready to share whatever desserts you get without any extra plates or utensils.

    The location was fantastic, just a few minutes' walk from the Jing An Temple station. However, the air conditioning didn’t function properly, leading to discomfort during my stay.

    Had a great experience at this hotel! I really enjoyed the indoor pool and the relaxing spa services they offered. The only downside was that some areas felt a bit outdated, but it didn't take away from my overall stay. 😊

    Great location and comfortable stay

    I had a pleasant two-night stay with a beautiful view from my room on a high floor. The breakfast offered a delightful mix of both local and international dishes, and the staff was generally friendly. I particularly appreciated the hotel's central location, making it easy to access the major attractions. However, the check-in process was a bit slow, which could be improved.

    Great stay with a fab view!

    I stayed for 2 nights with my group and it was pretty cool. The staff were super helpful, like when they called a taxi for me. Also, the room on the 25th floor had an amazing view! The food at the bar was tasty, but sometimes it took a bit to get service. All in all, a solid place.

    slow check-in
    unfriendly staff

    The Equatorial offered a comfortable room with a superb bed, providing an excellent environment to work and rest. The breakfast was outstanding, featuring a variety of freshly prepared dishes and a selection of fresh juices. The location was convenient, adjacent to shopping malls and with easy access to the Jing’an Temple metro station, making travel around the city straightforward.

    Check-in was somewhat slow, and staff could be more welcoming.

    Loved the location near Jing’an Temple and shopping malls. The fitness center was nice for a quick workout, and the swimming pool was a lovely spot to unwind after a busy day. Taking a stroll in beautiful Jing An Park was also a highlight of my stay.

    poor service

    Comfortable bed with soft linens.

    My stay was marred by rude staff interactions at the executive lounge. As an APEC card holder, I expected better service and respect during our stay.
