“Great Location & Hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 January 2012

Very nice hotel in Pudong, close to all the Pudong sights and across the street from the Metro. Had a one bedroom suite and the rooms are very spacious and clean. The lunch/dinner buffet is delicious, and worth the price, not your typical buffet, and they have foods from all over the world, the sushi and sashimi was fresh and tasted great. The E bar was nice also, with great views of the Pudong skyline and the band is good too!

“Excellent & would stay again”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 December 2011

I usually try & avoid staying Pudong side of Shanghai as it is a bit sterile but The Eton is an exception. A well run hotel, good location & wonderful views.

We had 2 Executive Rooms on a high up floor. They were clean & excellently appointed with views overlooking the Lujiazui Financial District & Huangpu River. The free internet was a plus. The executive lounge had a good breakfast every morning with lots of variety & a nice array of food and drinks during the evening. The staff were very friendly & helpful.

The only negative is not about the hotel itself but more to do with Pudong area - lack of nearby restaurants and places within walking distance. The hotel is lucky enough to have an excellent location in Pudong itself ( restaurants aside) - the subway is across the road ( Pudong Ave on line 4 ) so it is very easy to get to places across the river. There is also the ferry an 8 minute walk away. Along the Huangpu river near the hotel is also a nice landscaped walking area which is good for a stroll to see across the river & watch the sand barges going up & down.

To sum up I can't really think of any negatives and we had a very enjoyable stay.

Room Tip: Pay to upgrade to an Executive room or suite. It is well worth it as the views are terrific and acce...

“Great Hotel / Good Location”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 December 2011

The Eton has shown that they know how to treat business travelers for short and long stays.
Michael Ow the General Manager has a great staff that go out of their way to make your stay very enjoyable. I would rate this hotel very high for everything from food to room rates and close to subway lines that can get you to any location in Shanghai. I have stayed at the Eton many times during my business here in Shanghai and have been always satisfied. I look forward to continue coming back and enjoy the great service that I have received, I want to especially thank Mr. Hua and Mr. Davy and Richard the Bellman for their continued support.

Room Tip: When making reservations, ask if they have rooms available with the view of the city, they have one...

“Decent hotel - does what it says on the tin”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 December 2011
1
person found this review helpful

I found this an excellent location (metro is literally across the road) and walkable to the SHICC.

Rooms were good but on closer inspection there was a little (cosmetic) wear and tear that could do with a refresh.

Prices for facilities equivalent to other hotels, but room rates half those of hotels near the SHICC

Free wifi in lobby works well

“Great Business Hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 November 2011

The hotel is located close to the Pudong Business centre. The rooms are large, clean and a bath (with small lcd TV) is a nice touch.

Beds are comfortable, (King size) and give views over....basically office towers...Very convenient to Number 4 train line which is one stop away from the century park interchange for line 2 that gets you just about anywhere you need quickly and cheaply.

Restaurant on level 3 is 24 hour so nice touch if you are working / playing late.

English is widley spoken and there is an English guest services manager that makes sure everything ticks over well.

Room Tip: The exective room has a large square spa...ask for an upgrade and you may get one!
