ハワード ジョンソン ホン チァオ エアポート ホテル 上海 (上海虹橋金古源豪生大酒店) (上海)

The hotel is very nice, the rooms are big and breakfast is good. The service was a little bit slow but not out of the ordinary. One thing that was not so nice is that the hotel room although it was non-smoking smelled heavily like cigarettes. I am quite sensitive about that and this was not pleasant.

This place was miserable. The internet cut out every five or ten minutes. The refrigerator barely lowered drinks below room temperature. The "gym" had a few home-level pieces of equipment that were either broken or severely run down. The service was generally indifferent at best. While the cable guide says there are several english language stations, there really aren't. Not even news stations. Several of the venues like the second floor bar and restaurant were closed all three days I was there without explanation. The location is awful. It is facing an elevated highway (actually it is very nearly under the highway) and there is nothing nearby. While it looks to be close to the convention center, it is impossible to walk there because there is no way over the river without walking along the highway.
