Howard Johnson Huaihai Hotel is a very nice place with a great location. Just off Huaihai Lu and all the bustle of the shopping area, lots of good restaurant choices nearby, and close to Line 1 on the Shanghai metro system. But beyond that, it's also located adjacent to a thriving neighborhood that will give you some insight into the... More

I travel frequently to Shanghai and on this ocassion I decided to stay at this hotel because it's a walking distance to my office. The Hotel is modern and new. The room was bright, clean and spacious but the A/C didn't work at all, the weather was very cold in Shanghai and the room was cold as well, the highest... More

I have stayed in the Howard Johnson Huaihai Plaza during several visits over the last two years to Shanghai, and whilst the hotel is in a great location, standards have progressively dropped. Rooms are of a decent size and bathrooms well equipped, but the carpets are worn, walls are thin and a refurbishment is desperately needed. Breakfast is very average... More

I stay at this hotel almost every time I visit Shanghai. Ask for a Hua Hai Road view and you'll get a beautiful view of this traditional French tree-lined street. The rooms are clean and very big. The rooms have one huge window pane which meets my requirement for a bright and well-lit room. The service is Chinese so you... More

We booked this hotel based on reviews from Trip Advisor and found that it is very comfortable and a good value. However this morning we decided to have breakfast in the hotel and made a major mistake by not asking the price first. We were amazed to look at the check and find a $50 charge for the two of...

It was wonderful staying here, with very clean rooms and bathrooms. Awesome 15Mbps wi-fi in room and lobby. The hotel is perfectly located right in middle of action and couple of mins to the Subway train stop. Plenty of food and shopping options around. Only disappointment was the missing Swimming pool but anyway its just a small thing. The hotel... More

Great hotel for business travelers who want to stay in the French Concession. It's a clean and modern hotel with a great gym. And it is a great value at less than 1,000 RMB a night. After staying in several different hotels in SH this will be my first choice going forward. More

Stayed here a while back but thouroughly impressed with this one. For a weekday I paid about 850 RMB which got me a great king sized room that looked out over the French Concession area of Shanghai. As I was only here the one night I did not experience most of what the hotel has to offer, however the room... More

Ok, typical ignorant Brit abroad time. Stupidly it wasn't until I was in Shanghai that it dawned on me that why on earth would all of these millions of Chinese people read, speak & understand English?
