Back from Donews Shanghai Meeting Hi, I am sorry to put this here as it is not that relevant. But I write to suggest an article concept for you, that I think a lot of people would find useful. The jinjiang chain of hotels in Shanghai (and I think they are in other chinese cities as well) are a good choice. (I know motel168 is a good choice as well - you have covered these well on your blog) Perhaps you would be kind enough to do a little guide to Jinjiang hotels in Shanghai - their location, price, relative merit etc. This hotel chain does have a website but it is Chinese only (its English button is non-functioning). I am currently living in a hotel in shanghai and am thinking to make a switch to a cheaper but well located hotel - I think one of the Jinjiang hotels may be the way forward to me. But they are a bit of a blac mystery for me right now. |

Cheap Place to Stay in Shanghai Hi, I think this is a great site. I have seen your recommendation for motel168. The thing is - there are a number of them. Which one do you think is in the best location? The best location for me would be as central as possible I guess - where there is the most "life" - shopping, nightlife, lots places to eat etc. Motel 168 of zhoujiazui Road Motel 168 of aomen Road Motel 168 of huoshan Road Motel 168 of Anyuan Road Motel 168 of Liuzhou Road Motel 168 of Wuzhong Road Motel 168 of New Jinqiao Road The motel 168's in the different locations are different prices of course. When I know more about their relative merit of location, I can calculate where I want to stay, pricing in these cost differentials. This might be a nice idea for a related future article - "what is the best district to stay in Shanghai". For the perspective of a tourist and an expatriate. I may be staying for quite an extended period (few months) so I am in a twilight between these two. On another note - I need to work whilst I am in Shanghai. I will be bringing my laptop and am very interested in anything re: wireless in shanghai. Motel168 say that they have wireless provision in their rooms. BUT is this free? Or at extra cost? Would be very interested to hear on this point. |
