It's obvious that not that many English speaking tourists stay at the Trade Point since this is the first review in English. However, it is certainly up to western standards. I traveled with a small group of 9; 8 Americans and 1 Australian. The rate was part of a tour so I don't know what it was but I'd guess it's less than the Sheraton for very comfortable accommodations. We stayed for two nights, and then returned to the hotel for one night as we traveled back and forth through the region. The rooms are nicely furnished, relatively large and clean. The windows on the back of the hotel had not been recently cleaned but the front room windows had good views of the lively street scene in front of the hotel. We were on the 13th non-smoking floor and the rooms did not have a tobacco odor as other non-smoking rooms did in some other hotels in China.

We found that most of the staff had quite limited English but there was one woman at reception who spoke very well and other staff called her if we had something more complicated than they could handle. Our guide was also fluent and he sorted out any complications for us. Several of us also used the iphone app TransMate to communicate and that was very helpful at the hotel and elsewhere. All of the staff were very friendly and for the most part we were able to communicate with hand signals, etc. I would recommend this hotel to western tourists.
