Atour Hotel Shanghai Bund Nanjing East Road, Shanghai

I would also like to give a big shoutout to Atour Hotel for their amazing staff, free laundry, and great service overall.

We stayed for 3 nights at Atour Hotel, The Bund, Shanghai. For me, this is the best hotel, in terms of services, that I have stayed in so far. You can have all the drinks in the fridge, Cola, Iced Tea, plain water, and even request for refill if you like. And the front counter, whenever you go and talk to the staff, they will immediately serve hot tea or lemon drinks for you, they even gave us warm mineral water in bottles when we departed for the airport early in the morning. 

And the best part is the free laundry. You just have to bring your clothes to the laundry room, put them in the washer, and all the detergent and softener are provided. The helper will move your clothes from the washer to the dryer and even help to fold your clothes. I was so surprised. It was really convenient with the cold and rainy weather in Shanghai in March, this free laundry service is so much needed and it's so good to have warm fresh clothes anytime. The laundry room is open 24 hours, but the helper might not be there all the time, so sometimes you still need to fold your own clothes ya.

We were even granted an early check-in.  We arrived around 10am and were allowed to go in our room right away, how amazing.

Our room got a balcony, but with the cold weather, we didn't get to enjoy the balcony. Would be nice to have a skip of hot tea or coffee there during spring or autumn, summer night would be nice too.

Breakfast was good, the best part was they served pig's ears... hahahaha, happy me, hubby and kids not so happy, who cares, they can have other food what..

The only not-so-good part was that our taxi driver could not find the main entrance when we 1st arrived there. After turning twice around the block, he just dropped us at the back entrance, there's a sign showing Atour Hotel there, we thought we were scams. We went next door to ask for directions, luckily it is just around the other corner. Haiya.. why la the taxi driver like that.
