I spent 3 nights at Quintet and it was excellent - so much nicer than a hotel. Sam (on email) and Kenny (in person) were great to deal with. The B&B is in an easy-to-find spot in the lovely French Concession area, a few mins walk from a subway station. I arranged an airport pick up in advance for AUD40,... More

This a lovely accommodation in the heart of The French concession away from all the street hassle of staying around the Bund. It makes a great base from which to discover the surrounding area. I stayed in the Oriental Pearl and was delighted by the lay out which was spacious and full of character. A mere ten minutes walk to... More

I almost never stay in B&Bs but the idea of staying in an old French Concession house seemed like a great idea. The rooms are very nice, the owner Kenny is quite helpful, and the location (10 minute walk south of Jing'an Temple) is great. Rooms are each decorated differently (at least one has a balcony) and all are tasteful.... More

Comfortable, clean, tastefully designed and decorated. The Quintet was a welcome change from the cavernous, gilded big-city hotels throughout Shanghai. A great place to stay if you'd like to feel that you've "gotten away" from the chaos of the big city while still being in the center of the wonderful Former French Concession. Kenny, the manager, is very kind and... More

Everything good that is said about this place is true - location, cleanliness, atmosphere, breakfast, etc. I did want to add one thing. While we were there one of the guests lost his passport and visa. The on-site manager - Kenny - jumped in and helped him overcome the problems with the Chinese government so he could get the visa...

I stayed at the Quintet B&B for 8 days in March of 2013. This quaint simple bed and breakfast is clean, safe and ideally located in an excellent part of Shanghai. It is minutes to multiple train lines (which are easy to use) and ideally located within short walking distance to excellent restaurants, bars, coffee shops and two of Shanghai's... More

I stayed in Quintet last week for a night. Just wanted to try something different from the usual stay in hotels, and I had a really nice experience. Quintet has a very convenient location in the French Quarter. Nearby there lots of interesting shops and restaurants to make foreigners feel at home. Subways are within walking distance. In a sunny... More

We - this means my family - stayed in the Quintet B&B at the beginning of January 2013 for two nights. We enjoyed the individual style and interior equipment of the house where you can still feel an atmosphere which you could never find in a modern business hotel. Even if it was a bit cold outside we could stand... More

A charming and very friendly B&B in an authentic 1930's home that retains the style of that era with large, stylish rooms. Whats more, it conveniently located in the most desirable part of Shanghai, The French Concession, where the locals want to live. I was made to feel very welcome from the first...arriving at dinner time, the owner took me... More
