"The Conrad Shanghai was a great property to stay as a first time traveler to China specifically to Shanghai. It was central to everything, restaurants, shopping, and transportation. It is like staying in Times Square in NYC, but it was best for myself amd wife. There are other hotels not far from Nanjing Road but I didn't know the distance from there and the Bund. Again I would suggest thay yu as first time traveler stay the Conrad. Also the breakfast at Lane 11 was excellent."
