The most troublesome thing when I came to Shanghai was that I was tired of staying in the scenic spot, and it was difficult to park in the core area, and the traffic was blocked. This time, I chose Donghu Collection Hotel Shanghai as my destination and sighed directly after staying: this is the ceiling of accommodation in wutong District! Transportation and surrounding facilities are incredibly worry free, without the need for complex strategies. You can easily encounter surprises while walking out.
Its location is directly on the heart of wutong District, Shanghai - No. 7, Donghu Road. It only takes 500 meters to walk from the Shaanxi South Road subway station, and it takes 8 minutes to walk to the transfer station of Line 1 and Line 10. Line 10 is the "tourist attraction line" in Shanghai. Take two stops to Xintiandi, three stops to Yu Garden, and go all the way to Wukang Road, Jiaotong University, and Hongqiao Airport without detour transfer; Line 1 can go south to Huaihai Road and Xujiahui, and north directly to People's Square and Shanghai Railway Station. Whether it's rushing to scenic spots or high-speed trains, commuting time can be reduced to within 20 minutes. Surrounded by Jiashan Road Line 9 and Huangpi South Road Line 12, three or four subway lines weave a dense and impenetrable travel network. Even to Lujiazui in Pudong, it can be safely reached within 40 minutes.
The most surprising thing is its "pedestrian friendliness", which is completely tailored as a foothold for city walks. Turn left and walk for 3 minutes before heading straight into the literary alley on Donghu Road. Along the way, the walls of old western-style houses are covered in roses, and any photo taken is a atmospheric blockbuster; Walk west for 10 minutes and you will arrive at the core area of Jufu Chang. You can stroll around the popular cafes on Fumin Road, trendy shops on Julu Road, and old Shanghai alleys on Changle Road; Walk north for 15 minutes and you will arrive directly at Jing'an Kerry Center and Ruiou Department Store. If you want to explore high-end business districts, just lift your foot to get there; Walk east for 10 minutes, and K11 on Huaihai Middle Road and Times Square in Shanghai will line up in a row. If you get tired of strolling, you can always turn back to the hotel to rest, without having to take a taxi to get stuck on the road during rush hour.
Self driving friends can even find treasures here - in wutong District, a "50 per hour parking fee" area, it even has its own free parking lot. It doesn't have to go around for half an hour to find a parking space. After parking the car, it goes upstairs directly, and can eat two more meals of local cuisine for the saved parking fee. The hotel front desk can also assist in calling a car and booking airport transfers, so even if you have to catch an early flight, you don't have to panic at all.
The surrounding living facilities are extremely dense: there is a 24-hour convenience store within a 3-minute walk, and you can also buy hot drinks after strolling the streets late at night; Within 5 minutes, dozens of local restaurants, online celebrity western food, and old Shanghai Dim sum shops were built up. From the frying booth in the alley to the brunch shop under the wutong tree, they could eat in different styles for a week without changing. If you want to visit the scenic spots, you can walk 15 minutes to the site of the First National Congress of the Communist Party of China and Fuxing Park. In the evening, you can walk along the Middle Fuxing Road to Sinan Mansion. The old Shanghai western-style houses are lit up, and even the wind is wrapped in wutong incense.
Previously, when I came to Shanghai, I would waste a lot of time taking the subway and rushing to the bus. However, this time I stayed at Donghu Collection Hotel Shanghai and realized that choosing the right accommodation means there's no need to make complicated transportation plans. Going downstairs is the essence of wutong District. When you go out, you can directly reach all the popular landmarks in the city. Turning around, you can hide in the tranquility of the century old residence. This is the most comfortable way to travel in Shanghai.Show more
