I had a pretty good stay at Central Hotel Shanghai. The location was fantastic, right near East Nanjing Road and a short walk to the Bund, which made it super convenient. However, I did face a couple of issues with the Wi-Fi and some maintenance noise that was a bit annoying. Overall, I'd rate it as a solid choice, especially for the location.

I had a mixed experience during my stay at Central Hotel Shanghai. The location was absolutely excellent, allowing easy access to major attractions like the Bund and Nanjing shopping street. However, the check-in process was painfully slow, and the reception staff could have been more welcoming. Despite these issues, the room was spacious and comfortable, which made my stay enjoyable overall.
