Accommodation Options
There are countless options in Shanghai. The subway system makes it easy to traverse the city, although travel time should be considered. We elected to stay in Puxi, and found it was easy to get to navigate the city and reach key tourist attractions.
Courtyard By Marriott Puxi
The main train station, along with two subway stops can be reached within a five minute walk. Staff was friendly. The spacious rooms were clean. The concierge lounge serves breakfast and evening drinks/hors d’oeuvres for those with Marriott elite status or anyone that chooses to upgrade their room to the Concierge floor.
