Top Cathay Theatre Hotel Reviews

Shanghai Marriott Marquis City Centre

10/10 Excellent

"Todo ok."

Okura Garden Hotel Shanghai

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel is conveniently located at the city center, walking distance to major shopping malls and bars. I will stay at this hotel again next time."

Radisson Blu Hotel Shanghai New World

10/10 Excellent

"Family suite is a great sized accomodation and gave a real sense of space (apartment) rather than a hotel room. Staff were helpful and location was great, the only downside is this hotel is showing signs of ageing. Besides that would recommend!"

Swissotel Grand Shanghai

10/10 Excellent

"Breakfast was great. Location was fantastic. Friendly staff and clean rooms. This would be my go to in Shanghai."

The Portman Ritz-Carlton, Shanghai

8/10 Good

"Enjoyed the hotel. Location was ideal alot of high end shopping in the area and very beautiful part of Shanghai. Room was serviced spotless each day, and I appreciate cleaning even late in the day they came to clean it. When I first arrived and the young man at the concierge desk (Jayson?) was able to help me with an issue I was having and I really appreciate that. I have stayed in many 5 star hotels in Asia and took a star off for the following reasons. Front door staff seemed aloof and mostly uninterested in assisting guests either by opening the front doors or vehicle doors for guests. This is clearly a business hotel for international guests. WIFI was ABSOLUTELY USELESS. I lost count of how many people I heard complaining about it or their Whatsapp not working, or can't get into email, etc etc. I have to log into work each day, if I can't access my VPN I cant log into work my log in would be immediately frozen if a IP address from China showed. Im lucky I had an Esim and data plan was able to work around the issue, I fear many others won't be as fortunate. Overall I would stay again."
