Holiday Inn Shanghai Jing'an sits in Jing'an, one of those discreet upscale property additions that travellers tend to bookmark before the rest of the city catches on. Jing'an is doing some of the heavy lifting here: it's set away from the busiest corners of Shanghai, and that proximity does change the trip. Inside, the rooms are polished, and guests pick out on-site parking, an in-house restaurant and reliable wi-fi as the small things that add up over a stay. The vibe lands somewhere between residential and editorial, which is rarer than it sounds. The numbers behind the reviews tell their own story, around 630 reviews, scoring genuinely glowing on balance. Reputation has held up across enough stays to mean something. Recent rates have been hovering around €77 a night, which lands as a fair-value option for the city. Stack Holiday Inn Shanghai Jing'an against the better-known names in Shanghai and the trade-offs become genuinely interesting.
