#1 of 1 hotels in Former French Concession by Axel's take. Former French Concession is #4 of 8 places to stay in Shanghai. The best hotels in Former French Concession, ranked · Where to stay in Shanghai

Axel's take: 8.2/10

A strong Jing’an base with dependable comfort, but rooms lack fresh five-star polish. An established five-star business hotel near Jing’an Temple, scored for what it is.

The Kunlun Jing An is an established five-star business hotel, formerly the Hilton Shanghai, and a strong pick if location matters more than contemporary design. Recent guests across Booking.com, Hotels.com and Tripadvisor consistently praise its convenient Jing’an setting, clean rooms and helpful staff. Comfortable beds, city views and easy access to restaurants, shopping and the metro make it a practical base. The indoor pool and well-equipped gym add substance beyond the address.

The compromise is age: multiple guests describe dated furniture, carpets and bathrooms, even while rating their stays positively. We’d choose it for comfortable sightseeing or business trips rather than a special-occasion luxury escape. Check breakfast inclusions carefully: Expedia says Executive breakfast-inclusive bookings cover the lounge, not other dining venues. Parking and airport transfers cost extra, and a nightly deposit is required.

  • Best for: Sightseers prioritizing location; Business travelers; Travelers who prefer facilities over fashionable design

  • Watch out for: Dated room furnishings and bathrooms; Executive breakfast venue restrictions; Paid parking and airport transfers

  • Location: Convenient for Jing’an Temple, metro access, shopping and plentiful neighborhood dining.

  • Rooms: Comfortable beds and appealing city views; furnishings, carpets and bathrooms can feel dated.

  • Cleanliness: Generally a strength, supported by strong aggregate cleanliness scores and recent guest praise.

  • Service: Recent reviews mostly describe polite, helpful staff and attentive housekeeping.

  • Amenities: Indoor pool, substantial gym, sauna and several dining options; breakfast earns frequent praise.

  • Fees and surprises: Nightly deposit required; parking and transfers are extra, and Executive breakfast inclusions are venue-specific.
