DoubleTree by Hilton Properties in Shanghai

Facilities: The Executive Room in the West Wing has a smart toilet 🚽. Cleanliness: Clean and tidy. Environment: Divided into West and East Wings, accessible via an indoor corridor. Outside, there's a small garden, which is quite nice. Service: Excellent service. We received a large cookie 🍪 and drink vouchers upon check-in. The Executive Lounge's afternoon tea and evening happy hour light meals were both great 👌.

I stayed at this hotel for one night during a business trip and overall had a smooth experience. The price is very reasonable, and the hotel itself is fairly ok. They also gave me an upgrade when I checked in, but I can’t say how that room was different to the one that I booked. The rooms and breakfast were both okay — nothing outstanding, but perfectly fine for a short stay. One of the highlights is the convenient location, with many dinner options nearby, which was great for our needs. I appreciated the welcome cookie, although it was quite hard and crumbly — a nice gesture, but not very tasty. One small inconvenience was that I couldn’t get a Chinese invoice (fapiao) directly at the hotel; instead, they told me to request it through the booking app, which I found a bit unusual. Despite these minor issues, it was an easy and pleasant stay. I would definitely consider staying here again if I need a hotel in this area at this price point.
