Sounds fabulous a taste of old shanghai in luxury – shanghai has quick become a fashionable and trendy shopping and entertainment city and this will provide a great place to rest and relax from the city buzz.
Just what I need. DVD player, WiFi, TV. Oh, hang on I’ve got that at home, why do I need to go to Shanghai?
I’m going to hazard a guess that you don’t have the Shanghai Art Gallery, Shanghai Grand Theatre, Xintiandi and Yuyuan Garden all on your doorstep, John.
Am I right? :-)
LOL, No Paul, but you won’t pick up the WiFi or see the TV from there or one of Shanghai’s restaurants or nightclubs. ;-)
All I can think of is that terrible movie, up the Yangtze.
Thanks for the post. I’ll consider to try this if going to Shanghai. I’ll choose “Chuan Residence” for my accommodation. Because I can’t resist Chuan SPA.
Up the Yangtze about the dishwasher daughter of a coolie? Since Shanghai is probably an experiential overload, I would want to have a haven in a central location that has everything I need including a kitchenette and a great view in an absolutely nonsmoking building.
