Courtyard by Marriott Shanghai International Tourism and Resorts Zone
The shuttles are on a set schedule. We arrived from Hongqiao station. The next shuttle would’ve been 3 hours later, so we took a taxi (200yuan for over an hour ride). Shuttles to Disney and closest airport were much more frequent and very convenient.

Novotel Shanghai Clover
Breakfast is always fantastic. Staff are generally very nice but as all Chinese staff are, they are very blunt and often a little rude and forceful. This is the same everywhere though. Room is spacious and clean and a very nice hotel
