Tucked away in Jing'an, Equatorial Shanghai is a luxury glass skyscraper hotel. The property is within four miles of Yu Garden, a 16th-century park with Ming Dynasty pavilions. This sizable accommodation boasts over 500 guestrooms, each of which is air conditioned and features a satellite television, a minibar with free bottled water, and a safe. Wi-Fi can be accessed for a surcharge, and each private bathroom is complete with a deep soaking tub and complimentary toiletries. Equatorial Shanghai has a 24-hour front desk staffed with personnel who can accommodate express check-in/-out. Conference space is available for reservation, and spa services are offered. Guests can work out in the fitness facility and can make use of the amenities in the business centre. There are three restaurants on the premises, as well as a coffee shop and a bar. This hotel is within five miles of the Bund. The Jing’an Temple metro station is within a six-minute stroll.
The hotel is near the subway, implying getting around the city is easy enough. And while there is a restaurant on site, there are other places where you can eat and shop in the nearby shopping centres. You can reach a few attractions on foot, too, such as Jing'an Temple, which is only five minutes away.
The rooms are decent and the price is fair. Although some bathrooms are somewhat on the small side, it doesn't get overly uncomfortable. The staff members are very helpful. There is a fairly decent room service and, if you need help, there's always someone to assist. The staff speaks English, which is a plus. In addition, there is someone on standby to get a taxi for you.
The breakfast here is quite tasty and is served in a less crowded spot. Both local and continental options are included.
The Wi-Fi at the hotel is a major let down. And although there's the public Wi-Fi and the paid option, neither is reliable.
The lower rooms facing the road are a little noisy, especially on busy mornings. If possible, please get a room high up (or at least one facing away from the road).
To get anywhere from the hotel including the nearby restaurants, you have to cross several major roads, which is a bit of a pain since the roads are quite busy.
