Very bad service at the front desk
When I asked about the receipt, they told me that they don't have any and I should contact the booking site directly because my payment was to the booking site not the hotel. When I asked a few more questions, they just basically laughed at me for even wanting a receipt. The shower didn't really work either. Do not stay there. The front desk people are really rude.

Good value for the money
For the cost, the room was very nice. The only downside about the amenities was that there was no in-room wifi, although they do provide in-room ethernet Internet connection. Location was close to everything and the jacuzzi sized bathtub was a real bonus. The buffet breakfast was fairly decent as well.

Centric hotel
The hotel is 10 min walking from metro line #2 which connect the 2 airports in Shanghai. The hotel is also 10 min walking from the main shopping street as well as the city centre. The value of the room was fatastic paying in advance.

Good location Nice place
Hotel Salvo is conveniently located near People's Square, The Bund and Nanjing East Road. Just across the road from the hotel is a street brimming with cafes, and food stalls in the evening, which is good for those looking out for an authentic Chinese meal. Rooms are comfortable and suitably appointed.

Perfect location, great value but don't expect a warm welcome!
We had a fantatsic stay at the salvo, the location is perfect, just 5mins walk to the Bund and a few mins to the subway. plenty of good restaurants nearby too - in particular - Grandmothers Shanghainese rest just around the corner. The hotel was in great condition and the room was spotless. The breakfast buffet was fine. The only issue was the staff - they weren't particlualry friendly (I know China is not renowned for customer service but still...!). However, I still fully recommend this hotel as it is great value for money.

Just ib the right place
A great hotel with an ideal location for all that Shanghai has to offer, terrific view of the Bund! Staff were helpful and welcoming trying to meet the needs of a wide range of nationalities (some who seem to have no manners!). Loads of places to eat nearby, and wine shops and pub mean the expensive hotel prices can be avoided.

Money-saving tip:
Short walk from hotel
Use the subway, its quick, cheap and easy. Look for the booth by the turnstiles to buy your 3 day ticket, not from an automated machine

Good Value
The location for this hotel is great. Room is not "clean" for 4 star standard. Sound-prof of the room is very bad, you can hear what is going on next door. Breakfast is pretty good (including both Chinese and Western food), but spaces (tables) are limited. Do not take taxi lineup outside the hotel. 1. they do not go anywhere except airport. 2. they will try to charge you more (do not pay anything above the meter)
