Kevin's Old House is located at the downtown area of Shanghai, just a 10-minute stroll from Jing'an Temple Subway Station (Line 2). It features European-inspired accommodation with classic furnishings and elegant décor. Well located in familiar center of Shanghai alleys. Mr Soo at the front desk was awesome and so was the cleaning lady who kindly took care of own drying. Breakfast was wonderful. Will consider booking again next time back to Shanghai.

Located in Shanghai, 1.1 km from Jing'an Temple, Shanghai Downtown Hills Boutique Guesthouse - Near Metro Line 7, Exit 3, Changping Road provides air-conditioned rooms with free WiFi and express check-in and check-out. The property features city and inner courtyard views, and is 1.9 km from Jade Buddha Temple. The accommodation features airport transfers, while a bicycle rental service is also available. This is my second time with hills and as usual everything was perfect! The house is clean, the ayi is nice to us. It is located in the old Shanghai compound but very easy to find. I have stayed in several home stays in Shanghai and I normally found the mattress quite uncomfortable, but I slept very well here. I will come back to China next year again and I will come back to hills for sure 😊

Boasting a seasonal outdoor pool and a hot tub, 上海云庐民宿 Free shuttle bus service from PuD'ong Airport and Disneyland is available is situated in Shanghai, 5.3 km from Shanghai Disneyland and 20 km from Shanghai New International Expo Centre. Among the facilities of this property are a restaurant, free shuttle service and a 24-hour front desk, along with free WiFi throughout the property. There is free private parking and the property features paid airport shuttle service. I liked absolutely everything. The staff are really nice and helpful. Also very understanding, as I had problems with Alipay on my arrival. Fresh towels and water delivered everyday without asking for it. Breakfast was so delicious, I have no words. Close to the Disneyland, a bit further to the city, but still very easily accessible.

Towels and bed linen are provided in the homestay.

Yu Garden is 3.9 km from the homestay, while Shanghai Railway Station is 4 km away. Shanghai Hongqiao International Airport is 15 km from the property. I had a fantastic stay at Amy’s apartment in the heart of the Shanghai French Concession. The place is gorgeous—full of character and heritage charm—and ideally located in a quiet neighborhood just off Huaihai Street, with easy access to the Bund and other key areas. The apartment was fully equipped and super comfortable, especially the bed. The air conditioning kept the flat warm during the chilly days I experienced in Shanghai. Amy was a wonderful host—super responsive and helpful throughout. She made my stay an absolute breeze. It seems she manages several apartments, all with the same stylish and welcoming vibe. Thank you, Amy, for a great stay. Highly recommend this apartment!
