Rayfont Shanghai Hotel & Apartment

"We arrived at this hotel late at night and it was no problem, the location is good, it's got nice surrounding but it is quite noisy from the street and the bathroom window seemed to be absolutely not resistant to the sounds from outside, I checked several times if it's closed for sure. The room was very nice, the bed was comfortable, breakfast average (but Chinese will like it), the staff were helpful and friendly, no problem to communicate in English there. I recommend this hotel to those who seek good service and a low price." - Anonymous

"I don't think I will ever stay here again. The location was okay, but there are hotels in the same area that might be a better experience to stay at, such as [other hotel names]. The price was ok about 400 rmb a night for a "king size only room". The staff was difficult to deal with and that made it a poor experience for us. Very little English and seemed frustrated with lao wai's (foreigners). We purchased the breakfast through ratestogo.com and they refused us many times. We finally had to have them retrieve the voucher and show them that we paid. The pre-paying for breakfast just seemed like something that has not happened before. The room amenities are adequate. Our room had a small water heater and you had to allow 30 min between showers for the next person. I would recommend a place closer to the airport. Some of them are cheaper and nicer. But take our word for it, you might have a better experience than we did. " - Rinda PERRY

"For the price it was very nice. It was a little run down and the facilities it was supposed to have such as a bar, gym, sauna and spa where non existent. Although Shanghai is a very big city we found it quite a distance from the major tourist attractions such as the Bund and Peoples Square-both either a decent walk and then train trip away of a 22RMB taxi ride. But it was comfortable and we enjoyed our time there-extending our stay by an extra night. " - Jocasta Macintosh

"Location not good. The apartment is suppose to have a kitchen as stated when booking, but there was none and the room is SMALL and very CRAMP, not possible for a extra bed ?." - Tan Ray
