Manli Hotel (Shanghai Pudong Airport Branch)

The property is very kids friendly. Also the reception was very helpful. Thanks.

Very nice hotel

I highly recommend this hotel! I was traveling with my dog, and they are truly pet-friendly, which made everything so easy and comfortable. I had two large suitcases that were hard to carry, and the front desk staff, Ms. Liu, kindly helped me bring them up to my room and even placed some of my food in the fridge. Her service was outstanding and very thoughtful. The location is also excellent — right on a lively street with plenty of restaurants, shops, and places to grab food, so it’s super convenient. They also arranged a shuttle bus to Pudong Airport based on my flight schedule, which made my trip much smoother. Overall, the service and experience were top-notch, and I will definitely choose this hotel again the next time I come to Shanghai. One small area for improvement: since this is a pet-friendly hotel and I had informed them in advance that I would be bringing my dog, it would have been even better if the room had been prepared with a water bowl and food bowl for the dog.

I love the hotel decor and bohemian theme. Rooms were spotless. Staff were very nice! Breakfast was amazing, and reasonably priced. The only negative is the hotel was a bit warm, especially in the community areas. Overall, I had a great experience and will definitely come back again! Thank you Manli staff for making our stay comfortable.

Unique resort-style hotel, with cultural books displayed in the hotel rooms and tons of books in the floor-to-ceiling bookshelf in the 3rd floor cafeteria. I stayed there for 10 days in August. AC worked well. Love the laundry room, self-serving easy laundry. Two types of fruit teas and herbal teas were served at the front desk ball day long. Dried herbs were displayed in the hall way, free to take for freshness in hot summer. Super friendly staff. They use Bots to delivery small packages and food deliveries to the room doors. When I checked out, I had them ship two packages and one suitcase. The staff took care everything. All three packages arrived at my house in Hangzhou in two days as expected. With that, I flew super light from Shanghai to Beihai. Thumbs up! Make sure download WeChat and communicate with front desk real time in WeChat!

Night staff inept. Tried to tell me only on card key was available. Room lights were motion detectors which was terrible at night. Toilet had minimal privacy with only a partial clouded glass door. Breakfast was average. Gym barely plausible. Treadmill not right. A few interesting restaurants nearby. Close to airport.

Cave room suite nice but too dark, insufficient lighting.

Superb service and timely communication. Wonderful nail salon, food market, massage parlor etc, literally next door. Everything in the plaza where the hotel is located.

Wonderful service. Please add their WeChat to ease the communication!

I have booked this ho

The hotel is unique and beautiful. The room was so big and comfortable. The staff really go out of their to accommodate and help. They were so friendly and helpful! Thank you!

I was quite surprised when I checked in to this hotel. I didn’t expected the room to be this large. I like its comfy and bright. The property is spacious and offers a Very relaxed atmosphere. I am very pleased with my stay. I highly recommended.

Lovely hotel, near airport, with easy/free transport too/from hotel. Rooms clean and comfortable. Plenty of places to eat within walking distance.

The hotel and staff were nice. The room was very nice, as expected, there was a motion activated light above the door though, which was very sensitive and illuminated the whole room if anyone went to the toilet. Very annoying.

Be aware that the noted 24-hour shuttle does not run 24 hours. They picked up our phones during the trip but did not show up to pick us up. And the food is not as good as many other 4-star hotels. Better to stay away from it.

Everything good

We stayed during a 28hr stopover in Shanghai - apart form being a little tricky to find (there’s signs for Moonlo hotel and Manli - the reception staff referred to the hotel as Moonlo) it was perfect. The room was nicely decorated, spacious, and very clean. Bed was super comfy. Also stocked with everything you could need! 10/10 - I wish we could have stayed a few more nights! Friendly and helpful staff that allowed us to check in early (for a small fee)

The staff was awesome. Only criticism is they let people smoke cigarettes inside despite hundreds of posted signs. Room was fun with a nice patio

Convenient for the airport, located in a small shopping centre area. Didi dropped us on road and entrance is visible from road. Quick check in. Room was big with plenty of hot water and lighting very good. Comfortable bed. Quiet room. No restaurant available for dinner but there are local options available nearby together with Pizza Hut, Burger King and Starbucks. Shuttle to airport was complimentary and worked well.

Water in the showers was too small. However, they offered free shuttle to Disneyland and airport.

Overall a good experience for me on transit at PVG airport

Great service and excellent spoken English by Thomas at the front desk during our late check in. Hotel is beautiful and not your typical chain hotel decor, which was a refreshing change. Small kids play area in the lobby area, where one can enjoy tea as well. Convenience stores, Burger King and multiple dining options right at the doorstep. Take note that the hotel does not have a car front porch, you have to alight by the road and pull your luggage in about 30m (1-2 min walk). I did not really see how wheelchair accessible this was. Something to note.

the best stuff in this hotel r the best very helpful, kind, very professionals how to deal with some who lost a passport in a different country with not that much of English, where the google is restricted in China. the hotel is very nice and close to the Pudong Airport that they offer shuttle to the airport, and no need to orders a taxi. highly recommended to the traveler's with the transit to a different airport this hotel.

The staff is friendly and they have transportation service to airport. A lot of restaurants are around the area too. Highly recommend

Everyone was super friendly, and the breakfast was great. The room was clean and comfy. If the water pressure were a bit stronger, it’d be perfect. Big thanks to Thomas for being so helpful. Thanks to him, I could relax and had no issues with my schedule.

Very nice overall

The hotel staff were amazing. We didn’t realise we couldn’t use credit cards in Japan for the taxi so the hotel sorted it out and we reimbursed them. Also accompanied us to nearby restaurant to do same for food. Even offered to order us so food to our room via their own app. Went above and beyond. Excellent

This review offers a balanced perspective, The hotel has many positives, including spacious rooms and enthusiastic front desk and breakfast staff. However, some details could be improved. For example, there were stains on the curtains and sofa cushions, and the corridor walls have visible scratches. The breakfast offers a decent variety, but the quality is average and may not align well with Western tastes. Overall, a good stay, though some refinements would make it better.

Great Hotel, a bit far away from CBD, but close to the PuDong Airport.

Great zen and comfortable rooms, staff were helpful and friendly. Situated near the airport (15 mins) and in a small shopping centre with lots of restaurants nearby!

Comfortable room and friendly staffs.

직원들의 대응이 매우 훌륭한 호텔입니다. 우리들에게 도움을 주기위해 최선을 다 하는 모습에 감동받았습니다. 공항 근처에서 숙소를 찾는다면 이 호텔을 이용하시길 추천합니다. 조용하고 깨끗하며, 조식도 다양한 편입니다. 다만, 호텔까지의 교통은 호텔에서 제공하는 셔틀서비스를 신청하시길 추천합니다. 우리는 공항에서 택시를 이용해서 많은 금액을 지불해야 했습니다...

For anyone seeking a small boutique hotel style stay this place surely delivers. Its Great value, very clean and stylish rooms and comfortable beds and staff super helpful! I’ve not encountered anything similar in China - it seemed more in keeping with a holiday in Bali. Would highly recommend. And will stay again in my next trip to Shanghai.

Quite good breakfast

This was a very different experience. My reccommendation the Ducky room for families.

Was looking for a hotel near pudong airport, and this is my new favorite (have tried many over the years). Pros: great service and especially great breakfast (and they have their own garden for cooking, which you can hang out in), very cool rooms, and there’s a lot of food options outside (we went for one of the noodle shops), and has an airport shuttle (you do need to reserve the times in advance with the desk staff). Cons: staff doesn’t speak English so best if you speak Chinese or have a translator app handy (I saw the staff are comfortable using them with the other guests), and the hotel is hidden inside a somewhat “old school” Chinese mall that isn’t the most attractive. Overall, great place if you’re looking to sleep a night near the airport or for a base from which to go to Disneyland.

Nice design of the hotel inside and outside the rooms, friendly and helpful service in the receiption desk. We have a very pleasure journey here, will visit again.

Well maintained hotel, friendly staff and delicious breakfast. Quick access to Pudong airport. There are some restaurants and coffee shop close by. Very convenient.

We have a wonderful stay here at Moolo Hotel. The suite room was spacious especially for a family with 2 kids. The owner personally attended to our needs.

The room is very clean and spacious, which is nice for our family. The exterior condition of the hotel is not as nice as expected. However, the staffs, breakfast, airport transportation are big pluses.

This was our second time at the hotel and we still love it.

Owner and staff are very nice. Room condition is excellent and the neighborhood is safe and quiet. We had a unique and unforgettable experience. Highly recommended!

AC in the room not working at a hot summer night. The hallway is also very hot.

It’s a hotel inside a mall and the balcony looks dirty and lack of maintenance, in hot day limited AC in public area, sweating while eating breakfast.

This hotel is quite unique in terms of its design, style and friendliness to foreigners. Liked the 3rd floor library a lot and the stuff are super helpful. Highly recommend

The tub was dirty and had leaves in it and the air did not work properly.

Nice reception. Big room.

Helpful staff, nice garden, nice breakfast.

Make sure you get name and address in Chinese as the google translator could not give the taxi driver the address. Had to get the train from Shanghai to airport and try from there. Taxi driver called hotel but no answer. After 2 hours we eventually got there. As we were flying out the next morning and leaving at 5.15am there was no breakfast or airport transfer available. I wished we had booked an airport hotel as it would have been so much easier. Had dinner in a nice restaurant next to hotel. Hotel room was huge and. was a bit tiered looking. Had a deck outside which we used and it was nice and quiet. Not sure what was near the hotel as we didn't get to have much time there. Looked like a very family area with lots of children about. Excellent supermarket next to the hotel and was very cheap.

Moonlo hotel is awesome. I would heartily recommend it to all my friends. We arrived at the end of May, initially I booked the family suite with loft style but because my son is too young to climb and my parents are too old to climb, I asked for room change. They helped us free of charge and switch to the room that suit us the best. We had a wonderful three nights there, we rested very well for our Disneyland trip during the day. They also provide breakfast service with lots of food options which is awesome. The location is great - there are lots of restaurants and It is close to Disneyland and pudong airport.

Very nice hotel close to Pudong. The staff is very nice and willing to help any way they can. The rooms are nice for a 4 star hotel, much much better than expected after you see the hotel from the outside. Not much to walk around the hotel ...

Good

Close proximity to airport. The owners are very warm and kind. Huge selection of breakfast items, but will be great if the food are warm instead of cold

My stay was amazing! The owner and staff were incredibly friendly and caring, making me feel right at home. It was a short drive to Disney and the airport as well and very convenient if you have a long layover. Highly recommend for a cozy and welcoming experience.

Very friendly staff, the girl at the reception speaks perfect English! It's convenient to shops. Lots of options for food within walking distance. Free pick up and drop off to Disney land and Shanghai Pudong International Airport. Good selection of breakfast. Overall great experience and highly recommended.

I had the best experience staying here with the family. All the staff have been super helpful. We went to the breakfast quite late and the owner has offered to cook extra dishes just for us. It was raining when we leave and the owner and a staff member walked us to the shuttle bus with an umbrella. On top of the friendly staff, the interior of the hotel is full of characters. Highly recommended to all and we’ll surely be back again.

Excellent experience highly recommend

The staff there are really friendly and nice.

Provided excellent free airport transportation service. The driver Mr Li was very nice. The breakfast was delicious. Staff were friendly. Love it. Definitely recommend it.

I loved everything about this hotel. My stay was very short - only one night because I was in Shanghai for a layover. But I wish I was staying longer. Everything was great. The rooms were clean and the bed was comfy. But thing that made my experience extra special, was the morning right before I checked out. The breakfast was delicious, and the restaurant lady was the sweetest ever and made me an amazing wonton soup. It felt very welcoming. Check out was seamless and the front desk staff helped me carry my luggage to the car. Definitely have to come back and stay much much longer!

My stay at this hotel was outstanding. The hotel was very clean and comfortable. Staff members were extremely friendly, making me feel welcome and valued. The breakfast offered a vast and tasty selection, the handmade wonton soup was extraordinary. Additionally, the airport pickup service provided a hassle-free start to my visit. I highly recommend this hotel for its exceptional service, cleanliness, and attention to guest satisfaction.

Great service, friendly front desk staff, excellent breakfast selections, airport shuttle from T2 only.

This is a hidden gem between downtown and pudong airport. The staff are top notch, the restaurant is simple but loaded with food choices. The decor is very warm and relaxing, the rooms are very spacious. Definitely will be staying here again.

Great location, easy to access the airport

We’re so satisfied with the staying at Moonlo Hotel. All the staff are so friendly and welcoming. They made sure we had everything we needed for the stay. Their Driver went above and beyond for us. We lost our luggage at the airport and he drove us to 2 different terminals and went in to the airport with us to make sure we found our luggage and head to the right direction for our next flight. The hotel itself is very quiet and clean. The atmosphere is very culturally in depth, but includes modern features as well. We are so grateful for everything and everyone there during our visit and definitely will recommend it to everyone.

Great Stay, was only there one night for transit via Shanghai but they were helpful and the hotel was lovely I didn’t have time for breakfast but it did look very good as I was leaving for the airport the next morning.

Overall my stay was pleasant and the super King bed was amazing. Outside needs a little work but it has some lovely decor inside which is what counts. A great breakfast as it seems with all Chinese Hotels I’ve stayed at and convenient to the Airport.

The staff at the hotel was amazing even with difficult circumstances. All vey kind.

Excellent location, nice and knowledgeable staff, and great breakfast selections

Best experience good staff friendly highly recommended 👍😎

A very unique hotel, the family room is very suitable for vacation travel with children. A family of three or four would be very comfortable in one room. The breakfast was also very good and the waiters were very warm and friendly. I will choose this hotel next time.

A very nice place to rest, the only downside is that the gym equipment is broken and its pretty cold in December.

Was on a overnight connection at PVG, and booked this hotel. Overall it was a satisfactory stay. Their airport shuttle service was quick and convenient, and the staff there were all very friendly and helpful. Their breakfast was beyond expectation, and facilities within and around the hotel were comprehensive. We booked a family suite, and the room was a little smaller than we anticipated, but it didn't bother much. Regardless of the language you speak, the staff would be able to serve you well. Will definitely come back again for next PVG trip.

This is our second time staying at this hotel. It offers convenient airport pick-up and drop-off service. All the facilities were great. More importantly, the service is amazing. Everyone we interacted with were professional and friendly. With our evening flight, it also allowed us to check out late, which we greatly appreciated. Couldn't have asked for a better stay and will stay again next time.

A unique hotel that is comfortable and at a convenient location.

Pretty cool mix of Chinese and western style with polished concrete floors and almost warehouse style ( which I like) staff very friendly and the room was a nice size . Free shuttle to the airport and they got the driver to take me earlier than booked . Very convenient .

Absolutely enjoyed our stay here. Great place and excellent staff service ! We will be back

We stayed one day at the hotel. It’s very comfortable. Their staff nicely helped us to go around. The breakfast was good. The airport pick up service was great.

This is a very elegant and beautiful family run hotel… the room was incredible, everything from the wonderful walk-in shower room to the huge, amazingly comfortable bed and especially the pillows ! The interior design is so unique and heartwarming … it’s exceptional. Finally … the breakfast is unbelievably fresh, with a great variety of dishes and so delicious that I would go back just to eat there !!! And very Impressed with the staff … so kind and polite and helpful. Finally, the shuttle is perfectly on time from and to the airport. I strongly recommend to you this wonderful boutique hotel !!!

Very unique, beautiful and artistic. A real feel of local China. Staff wonderful. Rooms large and uniquely decorated with a calm and pleasent ambience.

Stayed for a transit stopover (obtained the 24hr. visa to leave PVG). Was a little difficult in organising the shuttle to the hotel - the number provided didnt work, and when I did get through, turned out they charged for post 11pm pickups. Took a taxi - showed chinese address - took just under 20 mins, 60RMB (take cash) At night it looked a little weird, the hotel seems to be part of a mall complex, and setback from the main road. However, the photos are accurate - the reception guy didnt speak English, but was very calm and proficient with the translation app - so checkin was no problem Room/building is excellent - my bed was huge, mix of large and small pillows, quiet, very clean. Breakfast was quite nice - was an egg/noodle station (that I didnt avail of), and a small but good selection of hot/cold foods. Shuttle to airport came promptly on time at 9am - journery to T2 took around 16-18mins. Overall would strongly recommend - would suggest the hotel put an email address to communicate beforehand, and put a google maps profile.

The most amazing room I have ever stayed in. Like like them to offer a dinner / bar option for the evenings! That would be the only feedback. Service was amazing too.

Staff was super friendly and helpful.

A bit hard to find.

What a hidden gem this hotel was. Perfect for our 15 hour stopover in Shanghai. The staff allowed us to check in around 9am, which we were so grateful for. The family room had two huge king beds and the staff were AMAZING. I'm not sure of the name of the young guy at reception who speaks English but he had the best energy and was so kind and helpful and also made sure that we had breakfast which was so yum. Make sure you head to the wonton/noodle/omelette section of the breakfast because it's incredible. I wish we could have stayed another night or two but we had to catch our flight to Sydney. It was a little tricky trying to get the shuttle there so we just caught a cab but the shuttle back to the airport was clean, on time and free! Love this property so much. Thanks for having us.

Very unique hotel with nice decorations. Nice buffet style breakfast. It is about 15 minutes from PVG. Shuttles drive on the hour and need to be reserved ahead of time at the front desk.

Very convenient for short stay in shanghai. The breakfast is wonderful. Driver Liu and driver li are very nice.

This hotel is a wonderful place to stay. It is about 20 mins derive to the airport. We stayed one night after the long international flight, and travelled to a domestic flight the second day. We were pleased to book this hotel as it gave the local experience compared to the big chain hotel. The staffs are very friendly. The breakfast is extraordinary with variety of choices. Highly recommended!

really nice environment and quiet property. Awesome service

This hotel is really beyond our expectations. The staffs are helpful and thoughtful. The owner serves the breakfast buffet herself, and her homemade wonton is delicious and on the order menu everybody. We will definitely come back!

Everything was great at this super elegant and artsy hotel. Huge guest room, awesome decor and wonderful breakfast. But taxi driver could not find the address using Chinese GPS

The room is very clean, quiet and specious. Close to the airport, about 15-20 mins. The hotel tries to preserve Chinese culture, it’s in a small town in Shanghai you get to see the rural area in China at same time have a nice place to stay. I told them i need to leave around 7am and might need early breakfast they told me to come to the cafe around 630am, and accommodated my requests. The highlight is definitely the interaction during breakfast with a lady who woke up around 430am and made traditional Chinese and American breakfast for guests. I got to try food I haven’t had for years and the experience reminded me how delicious real Chinese food is compared to American food😄. She kept making food and kept feeding me like a grandma. Later the driver Liu took me to the airport and we had a conversation about the hotel, economic in China, he is super friendly. Overall this is a private owned hotel instead of corporate owned, they provide customized experiences. I appreciated the human interactions with people who works there.I rate the service 5 star.

Hard to find the place. Toilet stuffed but staff came quickly to clear it.

We choose this hotel because it is near the airport and had good reviews. When we arrived, we are updated to a spacious room, and the bed and pillow are very comfortable. It was late night, some resteraunts nearby were still open, so we were able to enjoy a hot pot after a long flight. The breakfast was excellent that was personaly attended by the hotel owner.

Xiaoye and the team were absolutely amazing. They were so warm and friendly and made me feel safe. The hotel is such a gem, I loved the natural wood design throughout. The breakfast was delicious, it was my first time trying some foods and it was soooo good. This is a very warm and cozy hotel. Next time I want to book the cave room.

MOONLO Hotel is great. It is a quick shuttle ride away from Pudong International Airport. The hotel had a relaxing vibe, a nice atmosphere, and unique aesthetic. The staff were friendly and helpful. The room was clean, quiet, and comfortable. The breakfast was good and there are nice areas around the hotel to relax. They let us check out very late for a modest fee. It is situated with many restaurants and grocery stores right outside. I highly recommend this place.

Having a 16hr transit from Shanghai to Chengdu, i decided to book a nearby hotel and i picked Moonlo, which is about 15 min away. Airport pickup can be quite a challenge as they are not allow to pick you up from Pudong T1 and you have to navigate your own way to T2. Pudong airport is big and arriving at midnight, most of the glass door leading to T2 were closed, you will have to walk to door 4, thru a long linked bridge to reach T2 carpark and the driver will meet you at level 1, H6 pillar. A good 15 min walk with all your luggages, I am glad i finally meet my driver (a very friendly driver i must say) and thereafter, everything im going to say about the hotel is 5stars. The room is clean, very clean actually. Staff all very friendly and nice, you feel like you are being treated like their family. Ms Yang greeted me at the breakfast lounge the next morning and she sure made my noodles extra tasty by adding some very nice seaweed from fujian, some dried tiny prawn and seasoning. I empty up the big bowl. The chef， 阿姨 i call her, made me some very delicious wanton too 现点现做馄饨 . I would say their top notch service make it all worthwhile.

This is a convenient hotel if you need an overnight stay for flight connections at Pudong Airport. The airport shuttle is highly dependable and wonderful, as the hotel offers individualized pick-up and drop-off, so just call/email before your arrival or let the front desk know your departure time. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful, including shuttle drivers! The hotel and rooms are artistically and nicely designed and decorated. Stores and restaurants are nearby, including a nice Yunnan mushroom hotpot place right next door.

Great hotel and stuff . Location surrounding is just OK , dinner choices limited but can do it

The facility is great and staff is very helpful. The outdoor space could be cleaned a little bit better. The quality of the breakfast could be improved.
