Broadway Mansions Hotel - On the Bund

Hotel is in a nearly 100 year old building. Lobby felt upscale and nice, service and staff were great. There was a musty smell in hallways and room (all carpeted and “smells” like it may be the original from 1939) but somewhat understandable due to age of building. Service elevator is unmarked and in regular guest areas on floors… we only knew when we were joined in the elevator by a staff member with a large and very stinky garbage can on our trip down to breakfast from a higher floor, and wound up lost in staff area/basement. The bed is by far the least comfortable I’ve ever experienced. Not exaggerating, I contemplated sleeping on the stinky carpeted floor. Have stayed at around 80-85 hotels internationally and this was by far the worst bed I have ever “slept in”. Unacceptable for any hotel in my opinion. The good: excellent and updated lobby, nice cafe and restaurant on ground level, and frankly the location cannot be beat. Hair dryer in the room was very nice and effective. My wife was impressed with it. Would stay again if they updated the beds. Under no circumstance would I ever willingly lie on that mattress again though. Brutal.

excellent location on the end of the Bund with a great view of the Pearl Tower and Huangpu River. luxury hotel that's steeped in early 20th century architecture and history. staff uniform includes a Fedora!

It's nice location and views. Historic and cultural. Walkable to north Bund. Most staff are very nice. This our third times stay in this hotel. But would be back again. First day checking the room has some smoking smell. 2nd day front desk gave us changed room. It's great.

Good experience

A good returning experience. Definitely will return again!!

None

A historic hotel, right at the Wai Bai Du bridge and Suzhou river, minutes of walking to the Bund and the North Bund, great view of Yangtze River, Mingzhu Tower, the tallest Shanghai Center…..

Quick and professional services

Great location

Great job

.

The place was very nice. Great view of the Bund and river. Easy walk to the Pedestrian street, and of course the Bund is right there. The staff is great...and great service that door. We had a wonderful stay there. Oh...and nice breakfast too.

spent two nights, river side room, enjoy beautiful morning and night scene. surrounded by historical buildings. chinese and western style breakfast. coffee is good taste. near-by bars one block away and open to 4 am.

Good location by the Suzhou river, walking distance to the Huangpu River bank to see the oriental Pearl Tower with the tall buildings in Huangpu district, also close to the Nanjing Road. Great service from the reception to the room, twice room cleaning a day. Strongly recommended.

饭店比较老旧

Great situation with good views of the Bund at night, friendly and helpful staff, easy walking distance for Nanjing st., Gardens and many other landmarks No shortage of places to get food, overall good atmosphere

IT is nice to stay in this hotel

i have nothing to complains. It was very nice hotel, clean and all served very good and friendly.

Amazing city view to the bridge. Room is clean and spacious. The only downside maybe the bed is old so there is sound when moving but all else is super clean and give supreme exclusive experience.

This is a historic building with an excellent location and view. But the facility is outdated. The AC system is weak particularly in the hot summer days. After being in a room with a temperature of 79 degrees for a few hours, I contacted the front desk. A building maintenance guy and a manager came. Without any inspections, they told me that it was the way in the hot summer then left. I could not imagine that I had to stay in that room for one wk so I requested a room change. Finally, I was placed in a different room with a better cooling AC. The cleaning lady Ms. Peng is very pleasant and warm. She would be the only reason that I will come back to the hotel.
