Holiday Inn Express Nanhuizui

“Great Ocean View & Lake View”

Nice View of the Hotel from Ocean & Lake. Staff is very Good. Good Co-operative, just to understand English, use of Android phone is good. If you are looking for a good budget hotel, this is the best option.

The Holiday Inn Express Nanhuizui is located in the middle of nowhere. However, it's a fairly interesting nowhere, being on the edge on the ocean. This would have to be the only hotel in Shanghai on that can claim to have ocean views. Although as it is around 90km or an hour and a half by subway to the city, it's probably a stretch to say the hotel is in Shanghai. So don't plan to stay here if your real destinantion is Shanghai. The hotel itself is pretty standard HIX in China. This means the rooms are nice, the wifi is pretty good, but the staff have limited in English, and the breakfast isn't what a non-Chinese customer would expect. But for an interesting trip off the beaten path in Shanghai, this hotel makes the grade.

“Great ocean view - otherwise yikees”

I loved the great ocean view. Got to see over 100 dolphins eating for 2+ hours from my balcony. There isn't another hotel that is on the ocean. Without a major renovation of the rooms, I don't recommend this hotel: dirty and old (rugs, sofa cover, mildewed desk chair, etc.), lousy internet conn... more

I loved the great ocean view. Got to see over 100 dolphins eating for 2+ hours from my balcony. There isn't another hotel that is on the ocean. Without a major renovation of the rooms, I don't recommend this hotel: dirty and old (rugs, sofa cover, mildewed desk chair, etc.), lousy internet connections, location is a challenge (except for the sea wall/sculpture area), limited breakfast food selection. Bed was two box springs, I think. I could handle all of that, but I didn't like the way other customers treated me at the breakfast. I was the only Anglo and most people didn't want to sit near me or let me sit at their table (family-style eating environment).

This hotel is quite cheap - so if cheap is what you are looking for then this is the place. It costs about £35 a night bed and breakfast although the breakfast is poor quality and the bedrooms are basic. It is clean although make sure you ask for a non smoking room as they allow smoking in some and the rooms smell badly of cigarettes. There is no bar or communal area ( although we did meet in the breakfast room one evening and brought drinks in from the local shop).
