샹그릴라 청두

The very bad independent Chinese tour operator which is seriously unprofessional led to our unexpected 7-night stay in Chengdu as SIA is unable to assist us despite our having contracted Type A Inflebza in Urumqi upon arrival there. We thus ended up in shangrila Chengdu which is a reasonably comfortable hotel. Chengdu hotels tend to concentrate on serving local cuisine which might not be palatable to older Singaporeans. Nevertheless there’s lots of good restaurants with international cuisine especially in IFS, not too far from shangrila Chengdu with plenty of good options and reasonably priced meals. Also enjoyed the Chengdu museum which offered free admission to visitors above 60 regardless if nationality. Enjoyed the Chengdu stay.

Comfortable bed, grand lobby to welcome you, gym is well equipped with steam room, sauna and hot spa. Breakfast is ok, lack of quality food. Overall is acceptable. Location is not good. We use Didi everywhere we want to go.

The hotel itself looks incredible beautiful and the view from the small back exit of the gym was magnificent. The sleep was incredible comfortable with the bed facing the large window towards the city view. Although afterwards I realised there might be a room with a nicer view. Instead of the city view you can opt for the river canal view which would allow you to see the night view of the temple from your room itself. The room was of an older design which is probably from its long history. The staff were the most friendliest and helpful out of all the hotels we stay in our stay at Chengdu. With many facilities with just the exception of a self helped laundry room. You can only ask for a paid laundry service which is going to be quite costly. But I’m sure they will do a good job if given the chance.

Nice hotel with all facility required in prime location in iconic riverside area
