The Garden Hotel, featured in Wong Kar-wai's "Blossoms Shanghai," is a great place to stay.

The Garden Hotel is located on Maoming South Road, a prime location in Shanghai. It was originally a French club, later used and renovated by the US military. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, it was nationalized and converted into a cultural club. It was not until the 1990s that a Japanese company took over and officially renamed it the Garden Hotel for business. The Garden Hotel holds a special place in the hearts of old Shanghainese, and my mom loves to stay here... 🏩Check-in experience: The room type is quite old-fashioned The superior room is split from a large suite The bathroom has a shower with a bathtub At first, the shower couldn't be switched, so I asked the front desk, and it turned out that both hot and cold water needed to be turned on for the water pressure to be sufficient (the front desk was very familiar with this, probably because many guests complained) The soundproofing is a bit poor, and you can hear the noise in the corridor clearly The mineral water was too tight, and the waiter helped me open it later 👭The surrounding area is convenient for transportation, whether you want to go shopping in Jing'an, take a stroll along the Bund, or go for a city walk nearby, it's all very pleasant 🍪The hotel's own butter cookies are worth a try. If you buy them on the same day as a hotel guest, only one box per room is guaranteed. If you want to buy more boxes, remember to book in advance, and you can only pick them up on-site
