Location close to subway and shops. Can't use swimming pool without a cap. Front desk staff not helpful when room wasn't satisfactory. Also a problem with Expedia advertising a room not suitable for 4 people

Easy to find when using subway system. Only way to travel in Shanghai. Breakfast selections were great for overseas travellers if you didn't want to eat dumplings and soup which were on the menu as well. Rooms spacious,clean and good value for money. Would stay again.

Good and clean but outside of center
Overall a good stay, but few of the staff spoke English and it’s a little far from city center. Close to subway and a great food-court right next door makes it all worth it. Very clean and softer bed than most Chinese hotels!

Great location. Easy access to public transportation and many great restaurants - modern and traditional. The room is clean and comfortable, except it's a little cramped. The only issue we had was that the room was overheated and the room temperature could not be controlled by the thermostat in the room. The housekeeper was nice enough to suggest opening the windows. But the issue should be addressed by the hotel.

Great hotel in Pudong
I’ve stayed twice now at the Grand Soluxe - this is a comfortable hotel situated conveniently in Pudong. The hotel is right next to Pudian Road metro station, so getting around isn’t a problem. It’s also only about a 10 minute taxi ride from the Maglev station, so getting to and from Pudong International Airport is easy. The hotel itself is clean and comfortable with helpful staff. The beds are very comfortable, I’ve slept well here on both stays. I’ve only used the restaurant for breakfast, it has a good selection of Chinese and Western food available. Great hotel for a business trip, its location also makes sightseeing a breeze! I’ll be staying again.

I stayed here for three nights and slept very well. The beds are extremely comfortable, the rooms are clean and quiet plus the air conditioning helps to achieve perfect sleeping conditions. There's a great range to eat at breakfast and the staff is very helpful. I will certainly stay at this hotel again.

Nice hotel. Unfomfortable beds.
The hotel was nice and clean, and the staff very helpful and friendly. One minor issue was that the beds were very very hard. This not due to poor quality beds, it's clearly a conscious choice of the hotel. The hotel mostly cater to middle aged Chinese, and they tend to prefer hard beds over soft beds. Another minor issue is that the breakfast seemed very overpriced, even for hotel standards.

Very nice location
Excellent location. 1min to line 6, 2min to line 4. Front desk is very friendly and efficiently. No air conditioner during my stay(11/4 ... 14/4) even though room temperature reached 29C was not acceptable!!!
In short, no ac no matter how hot you are!
Room temperature at 11:30pm
No swimming pool now.
Change to heat mode as they said, still 28.5C at midnight!

Nice clean modern hotel with free breakfast buffet
I had a 24 hours layover in Shanghai and stayed over the Soluxe Hotel. The hotel is located only a block from the subway station, very convenient. From the airport, I took the MagLev to Long Yang Station, then took the subway (2 transfers) to the hotel. My only complaint (not the hotel's fault) is the subway transfer was not easy - long walk and fair amount of stairs. The hotel is very nice - modern, clean, and spacious. It deserves the 4.5 stars assigned in the hotels.com website. The price was very good, substantially better than other comparable hotels in Shanghai. The best part is that it comes with free buffet breakfast. The food quality and range of choices is 10 times better than any continental breakfast from a typical Best Western! The room was very comfortable. At 26th floor, I had a good view of the Shanghai Tower, WFC, and Pearl Tower. My only complaint (again not the hotel's fault!) is the air was smoggy, the the view was not very clear!

Shanghai was rainy during my stay. entrance of hotel is few steps away to main road and door-man refuses to get a taxi when i asked for, due to rain... it should not be the a 5-star hotel service... In addition, it's surprising for a 5-star hotel to charge internet in this century....

Great Value Hotel in Pudong
PROS * This hotel, at a room level, represents amazing value for money and I would stay here again in a heart beat. * Very well presented, clean, spacious. * Very comfortable beds. * Reasonable wifi service. * Breakfast was very reasonable too catering for all tastes and of fairly high quality. Cons * TV on-demand wasn't working which wasn't ideal for non Chinese speaking guests. * The hotel lobby bar was poor to be honest and the main bar wasnt open when we tried to visit it

Good hotel though staff not flexible and accomodative. Had to wait 2 hours for a room though they were available simply because of a rule book being followed, Also, very poor internet connection - spent twice the time it should take for mails etc. All in all not a good experience for a business traveller.

Dependable business hotel but nothing more.
Glad they upgraded me to a suite. Spacious, clean and with good amenities. However, too bad that the in-room wired internet access isn't free. There is no wi-fi in the room as well. Location-wise, walking distance to metro. Taxi to nearby shopping centres also fairly near, though don't really have any eateries around the hotel. Front desk staff was polite but not really friendly. Also quite often can't get any staff to help me with getting a taxi.

新し目で綺麗な設備ではありました。 アメニティについてもきちんと用意して頂けました。 改善をお願いしたい点は、最初に特段説明なく クレジットカードをフロントで出すよう言われ、1500元課金されたことです。 最終日に、責任あるかたから英語で、保証金として一旦受け取り、今日返すと言われてやっと分かりましたが、 初めてきたところで不安だったので、一言説明があれば印象が良くなったのにな、と思います。

上海出張時にはいつも利用しています。旧日系ホテルと言うこともありウォシュレットやバスタブがついています。 朝食も中華以外にも和や洋風な料理もあり品数も多いです。 地下鉄6号、4号の浦電路駅から数分の距離のため、渋滞の多い上海市内移動もスケジュールを組みやすいと思います。

フロントスタッフの対応が悪い。
チェックインの際に支払を済ませ領収書を要求したが、 「チェックアウトの時に渡します。」 と言われ領収書をもらえなかった。 チェックアウトの時に領収書をくださいと要求したが、 「聞いていない。我々は20時以降仕事してるので。」 との回答。 チェックインの時に領収書に書く会社情報も渡したが、 それも「無い」と言われた。 スタッフの引き継ぎができてないし、全く社員教育ができていません。 二度とこのホテルは利用しません。

上海だけかもしれませんが、 1)使い捨ての歯ブラシ 2)使い捨ての櫛 の提供が今回ありませんでした。  フロントに言えばもらえそうではありましたが、面倒くさくて コンビニで旅行用の歯ブラシを購入しました。 エクスペディアの注意事項に記載お願いします。 他の設備としては、昔からウオッシュレットが完備されており、ウオッシュレット必須な私には、大変心強いです。
