“If everything seems under control, you're not going fast enough.”

― Mario Andretti

In China, everything is like this. Unless you are away from the cities, construction, traffic and just buying some noodles is moving at a pace that seems just a little out of control. It has the feel of a pressure pot that has been turned up just a bit too high.

However, I have lived here for a while now, and I have become used to the mad cap pace that everything is running at. Once you get adjusted to that pace, it is a dream come true for the traveller. Planes, trains and a shit-load of restaurants and hotels all linked into convenient apps (well, not so much the restaurants) such as Ctrip.

Ctrip website (but much better on your phone...both android and IOS available)

There are also services such as these, but I have never used them so not sure if they are good or not

"Är man bara intresserad av ett bra boende nära flygplatsen är detta kanon... ca 20min resa (15RMB/pers) till flygplatsen i ganska sliten minibuss var perfekt. Checkade in sent på kvällen, så hann inte se något runt hotellet så där kan jag inte kommentera något. Rent, trevligt bemötande och mycket prisvärt. Passar troligtvis inte om man vill bo en längre tid för att åka och titta på saker, men är inte helt 100-på det då jag som sagt bara använde det som ett "transfer" hotell."

"It provides a free shuttle from the airport to the hotel, but it charges Y15 to take you from the hotel to the airport. Somehow I and some other people got the impression that the shuttle is free. If you are coming from Shanghai, you should go to the airport and call the hotel for the shuttle. The hotel is quite a distance from the nearest subway station. An alternative is to stay at a hotel near a subway station."

Crowne Plaza Shanghai Nanjing Road by IHG

5/5 Excellent

"Our stay at the Crowne Plaza Shanghai Nanjing Road was exceptional. The hotel itself is beautiful, the foyer is stunning. The location is brilliant, you step out from the hotel foyer on to Nanjing Road. There are lots of shopping and dining options around the area. Our room was great, very spacious and beautifully furnished. I think we got great value for money. Would happily stay here again."

5/5 Excellent

"My stay at Portman was perfect! Besides its excellent location and elegant decor, the staff was incredibly lovely and cordial. Their hospitality and courtesy were superb. I would like to give my special thanks to Helen who patiently helped me solve my issues and accommodated my requests. With utmost kindness, she continuously ensured that my 8-day stay at Portman was joyful. She also updated me about the fast-changing nearby shopping malls, restaurants, and boutiques. My room was constantly crystal clean with pink roses and everything was perfectly placed. Therefore, I will definitely stay at Portman again when I come back to Shanghai next time. "
