“Perfect hotel with lowest rates”

I would strongly suggest all friends staying in sheraton or visiting ningbo shd stay at portman . Note portman have 2 buildings one is hotel and one is apartment. Apartment building is inside sheraton hotel . So u are always in the sheraton. Even the breakfast is in sheraton . Even they share the same lobby of sheraton. I stayed 2 months before in sheraton the rooms are too old not worth paying the price they ask for the name of sheraton . Really worst. Portman hotel rooms are very small n tiny and old tooo older then sheraton. But portman apartment rooms are the best compare to sheraton and portman hotel rooms. Furniture is new, many lights in room. Bathroom is big enuf and nicely placed . U get micro, washing machine and dryer, hotplate machine , and really was impressed with portman apartment rooms . I had come back to sheraton and portman again only due to good location across the street. Irish bar its always with lit if people majorly foreigners . And the best food available .next to that u have spanish resturant, starbucks, mexican resturant . And its really feels nice in that street. Dont feel u in china city. So if anyone got to stay here just blindly go for portman apartment only . Avoid sheraton an portman hotel rooms . Both are too dated not worth . I would stay now always at portman apartment rooms only for the ease of international food and u will be in sheraton hotel itself so u nvr get the feeling of any 3 star hotel. Check out some pic i hv uploaded .

“Tired hotel in need of a little tlc”

Stayed there a couple of night while on business in Ningbo. Reception staff had very little English but were courteous. Wifi in the room was not working but they provided me with a router for the duration of my stay. The cleanliness of the room was dubious, especially the carpet

“Turn down the heat!”

I stayed at the Portman for a week for business. The bathroom was very nice. The bed was comfortable. The cleanliness was a bit low, the carpet was stained and looked like it needed a deep clean.

I stayed at the Portman for a week for business. The bathroom was very nice. The bed was comfortable. The cleanliness was a bit low, the carpet was stained and looked like it needed a deep clean. The biggest issue was the temperature of the room. When I first checked in, the room temp was set to 30C/86F. I tried to turn it colder, but the a/c never kicked on. The next morning, I found that I was able to crack the windows to bring in cooler air. After cracking the windows, the temp was able to be managed.

We werein Ningbo for a week. We stayed @ the Portman Plaza Hotel. We took the very convenient shuttle from Shanghai- Ningbo. I was a lovely bus ride. 3/ 4 hours. Door to soor service. Portman was ajacent to the Sheriton. It was raining all the days we were in Ningbo. We were discriminated against in 1 of the Resturants we tried to eat un. we just were not seated. They just kept passing us by. Fibally, we got frustrated and moved on. Shanghai was very open to Western Tourists. Ningbo , was, I'm told a Closed Chinese city. We did enjoy a Ztemple, 2 blocks frtom the Hotel. It was lovely. The Breakfast buffet, was a real spread. With so many different ciltures staying in the Hotel, there was a wide variety of b-fast treats.
