Salvo Hotel Shanghai

Zentrale Lage ideal für Shopping, Restaurantbesuche und abendliche Spaziergänge am Bund-Ufer.

Executive suite very small, no extra value to book a suite. Bathroom packed with (unnecessary) bathtub, better to have more space and not to have to stumble over the toilet if you want to have a shower. Karaoke going on all over the place, perhaps quite entertaining for local people, but a bit irritating to foreigners. Bar with good view, but music absolutely disgusting (Russian disco style) Food in the restaurant very nice, but difficult to communicate if you do not speak Chinese. Reception area freezing cold - staff wrapped up in thick coats (but rooms are heated well). Perfect place to stay for local people, guests from abroad might find it a bit strange. Rooms simply too small, suites would gain more value if the room would not be divided into 2 small chambers, but turned into one large room. Had stayed in an old style hotel in the French Concession shortly before, would have been better to book there again (or in one of the glittery high rises in Pudong). Disappointing.

This is a good 3 star hotel, but not a 5 star hotel. Location is good, thats all. Service ok, but never saw this kind of rooms before in my life. I am not coming again.

A great hotel with an ideal location for all that Shanghai has to offer, terrific view of the Bund! Staff were helpful and welcoming trying to meet the needs of a wide range of nationalities (some who seem to have no manners!). Loads of places to eat nearby, and wine shops and pub mean the expensive hotel prices can be avoided.

The location for this hotel is great. Room is not "clean" for 4 star standard. Sound-prof of the room is very bad, you can hear what is going on next door. Breakfast is pretty good (including both Chinese and Western food), but spaces (tables) are limited. Do not take taxi lineup outside the hotel. 1. they do not go anywhere except airport. 2. they will try to charge you more (do not pay anything above the meter)

Good reception,room is clean and with very acceptable space,air conditioning good although temperature is not very accurate,location of the hotel is very good near the best places in Shanghai

We were dissapointed in the hotel. Rooms were not clean. No doorman or elevator security.

From the Salvo, I was able to amble along the Bund, walk to the Pudong area, walk to the Yuan gardens and old town, the antique market, the fish/bird/insect market. At night, there were gorgeous views of the Pudong lit up. Take the time to wander the streets and alleys just up the block from the hotel. Try a $5 foot massage (1 hour) for full body for $10. No appointments required and they are open until late at night. Several establishments per street - just cruise - some are very clean, others .........

Hotel pretty clean, but living room area is little dark without window. Suggest partition between living room and bedroom to be sliding door, which could open up into one room.

Clean room, great view from the 23rd floor to the Bund and river. Most people in the reception speak decent english and are very helpful. Bund and shopping areas within walking distance.
