Liyang Holidays from AU$1,247

The Hongqiao Heyitang Hotel is one of the best properties I have stayed in Shanghai in the last twenty years. On the latest trip to China, I stayed there on 3 separate bookings, two with Expedia, and one direct. All 3 rooms surpassed my expectations, with one minor issue with the light in one of the waterclosets. The hardware worked great, the bedding comfortable and clean. Housekeeping was great. The staff go beyond their duties to accommodate your needs. Take out food is delivered to your room by a robot with a sweet little voice. Breakfast is served from 7 to 10, with a full complement of western buffet, fruits, and hot Chinese steamer items, such as dumplings, corn and potatoes, etc. A noodle stand cooks your order while you wait, a stand with 4 different congies and condiments puts a delightful touch to the breakfast spread. No whole grain bread though, only white bread, pastires and cakes, etc. The only weak spots was the coffee, you get the Italian, which is like Espresso, and the American, which is simple the Italian with hot water. The Heyitang is located on a quite one-way street near the #2 Line subway station. A taxi ride to the Hongqiao Highspeed Train Station costs about 40 rmb. The Front Desk staff calls the taxi for you. Hailing in the street is difficult. Clientele: young professionals & eastern Europeans, with the occasional family with young kids. Will stay there again.

Beautiful heritage building in a great location at the end of Nanjing Road on the Bund. Great staff who make all the difference.

The front desk staff were excellent in helping out our business team on our first visit to Shanghai. Specifically, Sinnie took the time to help us with dinner and transportation that made our stay exceptional. When we travel again to Shanghai, we will be staying at the Amara due to Sinnie great help as well as the wonderful hotel.

Everything and everyone is incredibly nice. Location is close to metro and a big shopping mall..you can find all variety nice and decent price food inside the mall..is fantastic! Staying here is like home..warm and cozy. Definitely is my next chosen hotel.
