The air evacuation is not good, smoking is allow in the room and when use Air conditioner, the smoke from other room have move to other room and smelling the smoke.
I had stayed here several times before renovation which they apparently did during the pandemic. The categories of rooms have changed so I am not sure of the comparison but basically everything seems a bit upgraded; cleaner, with more modern fixtures and functioning better. Particularly the climate control which was previously an issue in the front rooms with large windows apparently is working well now. As before the staff are friendly and helpful. I don't know how much value is added by the robots roaming around, but this seems to be a thing now in recent renovated hotels in China.
This is my first visit since the covid lockdowns. I had visited many times earlier. They appear to have used the shutdown time well. The room I was in (and I suppose most others) is remodeled Its very clean and comfortable . The breakfast buffet has moved to a larger hall and was excellent. It appears they have robots delivering room service; at least I saw them roaming around
Nice stay at shanghai hotel, comfortable bed, comfortable rain showers, room is small but good enough for me to get tested. Center Park is right by, beautiful Park for long walk
