Hôtels Joya à Shanghai

Location is rather convenient with lots of restaurants and shops nearby. It took me 12 minutes by car from the nearest subway station (with the traffic). Staff was very helpful and friendly. We had wonderful view from the window. Can see the Bund full of lights in the evening and ships passing by all night. Ferry to go to Puxi is just a short walk away. Room was clean with Smart Control curtains and lights, spacious shower, comfortable bed. Room design is very convenient and pleasant. Wish were more international channels. Felt like watching a movie or listening to music but the channels were only in Chinese. We didn’t take breakfast but still went to see the rooftop cafe. It has a great view and there are seats outside with the glass walls, but it was too cold that day. There is a Michelin star restaurant on another floor, for that you’ll need a reservation.

My friends in China recommended this hotel and told me that she loves it because it’s relatively inexpensive compared to similar hotels in the area. She also stressed that it is a native Chinese brand hotel that it is easier for her to order food and just anything she needs. I was pleasantly surprised by its decor, service, cleanliness and modern amenities. Our room had a nice big tub, huge shower and toilet with bidet. It’s been a while since I visited Japan and I forgot how nice to have a bidet. The breakfast was a nice addition to our stay since it is included. It served both Chinese and American breakfast with some nice local dishes. The decor is modern Chinese Jiangnan style featuring paintings, Calligraphy, and 3-D animation of gold fishes. I enjoyed working out at the gym as well. Super clean and all equipment are easy to use. There is a Pilate room as well. I didn’t have time to enjoy it. The staff are friendly and helpful. Not to mention that I asked for a power cord, it was delivered by a robot. Five star experience! .

I am surprised that the rooms are well maintained. The room is clean and furniture new and well maintained. I appreciated that they arranged that I need not change room as I added another night to my package. I was delighted with the policy of free soft drinks for first round per day! The amenities could be better topped up eg shower and hand soap. However, I like it that they have disposable, comfortable and durable slippers. On last stay day, they offered to call a cab for us and concierge on duty on 15 May at about 7pm proactively helped us with the luggages. Variety of foods at breakfast could have more options and cover fave more eats in Shanghai. I am amused by the robots that can bring up the takeaways to the room. Dyson hair dryer dries hair fast for better sleep. Overall, I am very satisfied with the hotel. I would use this hotel again.

The Joya Hotel in Jiading is a lovely hotel for those who want to visit nearby attractions. The room was spacious and comfortable. The shower and large bathroom was heavenly. Joya is located near the entrance to Jiading's ancient town and areas with shops and restaurants. The breakfast could have been a bit better. I missed having a custom egg station, but the noodles were good. Overall, it was a great stay for one night!
