Despite the name river view, you can barely see the river. Further to the south and away from metro lines. The rooms were clean and newly furbished, bathroom newly renovated and beautiful. A LOT of construction noise, in north and south rooms. Jack-hammers playing from 8 to 22. But therefore affordable and good value. Staff was helpful and speaking English.

Overall it is a good hotel. Clean, acceptable location, good facilities, helpful staff an so on. From the airport you will need around 30 to 45 minutes depending on traffic. I suggest to get the Maglev high-speed train (reach the 301 km/h) and then an official taxi. I tried an unofficial one I paid 3x more!! The location is a... More

Other reviewers have pointed out the fact that there are two major construction sites on either side of this hotel - so major that I doubt they'll be able to call it 'The Riverview' after the work finishes. We didn't find the construction work too annoying simply because we got a room on the 16th floor and sleep with ear... More

the hotel istelf is fine, but surrounding the hotel are 2 MAJOR new costruction projects. We were woken at 7am by enormous concrete breakers etc which was unbearable. As I told the manager, this hotel should be closed. I made a big fuss and in the end they refunded my room, but that is not the point. It really spoilt... More

First, most taxis have trouble finding this hotel, so be prepared with address card and instructions. I wouldn't say it's close to the Bund--15-20 minute walk, so requires taxi if you want breakfast outside the hotel. Carpets are dirty & rooms other than yours are unheated, but that's common for China, as are hard beds. Tiny closet, bigger one in... More

This was a very clean and comfortable hotel. It was within walking distance to the Bund if you're in the mood for a good 20 minute walk. We felt very safe walking around at night. Unfortunately, we didn't notice the fabric district until the day we were leaving so did not have an opportunity to take advantage of the beautiful... More

This hotel was booked by our tour company as part of a package so I don't know the price we paid, but there has to be better places to stay. The only thing this hotel has going for it is it's location. It has a great view of the river and is a 10 min walk to YuYuan Garden and... More
