There's a particular kind of property that travellers keep coming back to in Shanghai: Jin Jiang Hotel, a upscale property in Downtown Shanghai, fits that bill. Geographically speaking it's a short ride from the main sights, and the reasonable location rating in guest reviews backs that up. Inside, the rooms are polished, and guests pick out on-site parking, reliable wi-fi and an in-house restaurant as the small things that add up over a stay. With around 420 reviews on the books and a solid average, the reception from guests does most of the talking here. Reputation has held up across enough stays to mean something. Expect to pay something in the region of €91 a night, a middle-of-the-road entry on the board, especially when stacked against nearby alternatives. The honest read on Jin Jiang Hotel is that it deserves a side-by-side look against the bigger Shanghai names rather than a headline of its own.
