If you love hearing Chairman Mao's communist-era folk song tribute rung out on nearby church bells every 15 minutes, then this hotel is for you. Great location and super easy to get a taxi outside (not always easy in Shanghai). I was inconvenienced by a delayed check-in for nearly an hour on arrival because the desk staff spoke no English...

For a hotel that sees a lot of foreign tourists, no one even bothers to try to communicate, although i know first hand they speak enough english to help. When it comes to taking my money, english is not a problem, but when it comes to asking for help, which in the in-room book says to ask the lobby, all... More

We booked our room for 500 RMB per night, including breakfast and internet. FABULOUS location and nice staff. Happy we stayed here. More

Location is very good ... less than a block from the bund, and around three blocks to the Nanjing Walking Street. Overall, the hotel was clean, but my room wasn't cleaned very well ... carpet seemed to have either a lot of lint or was rarely shampooed-- you can see some bits of fluff or dirt, and bathroom counter wasn't...

The hotel's location cannot be more convenient; the famous Bund is just a 2-minute stroll from the hotel, and the famous Nanjing Road with its many restaurants and shops, 10 minutes. There's also a metro station (East Nanjing Road) nearby. The famous bar (House of Blues and Jazz) is nearly directly opposite the hotel entrance, as do a good number... More

We stayed 2 nights at baron Business Hotel. Room is OK, bed is comfortable, but TV, only in Chinese. Staff speak poor English and don´t try to understand us. No wi-fi available. Breakfast was OK, but it takes too long to replace food. They don´t make coffee enough for the guests and you have to wait (very much) for everything.... More

The hotel is situated near The Bund area and Huangpu River. It is a few minute walk from the metro train line 2 located at Nanjing Road. Taxi is also very convenient. The staff are friendly and courteous although aside from the reception staff who speak acceptable English, the rest of the hotel personnel are unable to communicate in English. ... More

Best thing about this hotel was it's great location. It was short walk away from Bund and Nanjing road and longer walk away from old town and yuyuan garden. Room was average size and it was clean. Bed was really hard, but I really liked it. Breakfast wasn't included in our room rate, but we ate breakfast at the hotel... More

Booked this via an agent website, to be honest I didn't have very high expectations; I expected a typical tourist trap type hotel with lovely photos but dire rooms and service. How could could I have been! The Baron is nestled away just a short walk from the Bund, it's a little oasis in a city of chaos. Staff on... More
