This time when I came to Shanghai to connect with the business district operation project, I deliberately avoided five-star hotels with high premiums in the core area and chose the JingLai Bushe Hotel Bund Nanjing West Road Shanghai that is a 3-minute walk to Nanjing West Road subway station. I thought budget hotels would fall short in terms of business details, but after staying for 5 days, I realized that they had incorporated everything that business travelers need - efficiency, peace of mind, and convenience - into the prime location of People's Square.
Take Line 2 directly from Hongqiao Station to Nanjing West Road Station, take a turn at Exit 12 and you will arrive at the hotel. The entire journey takes 40 minutes without transferring, and you didn't even step on the flooded road section on rainy days. It only took 3 minutes for the front desk to check in, and they found out that I was going to 3 different business districts for docking meetings the next day. They took the initiative to mark 3 non roundabout commuting shortcuts for me, and even handed me a note indicating the location of the 24-hour printing store. They even added two extra bottles of free bottled water that I didn't mention in advance. The thoughtful details eased the anxiety of multi stop travel.
The business room I booked completely meets the needs of business travelers: the widened office desk facing the window is equipped with flicker free eye protection lights, and the gigabit Ethernet cable and 65W fast charging port are neatly arranged on the side of the desktop, so there is no need to squat under the bed to find sockets. The plan is much smoother than in an office building, facing the old Shanghai street view outside the window. The intelligent upgrade just completed in 2024 does not require any extra effort. The 24-hour constant temperature hot water output is stable and dense, and the customized spine protection mattress is soft and not collapsing. After staying up all night, taking a hot shower and lying flat can quickly relax the tight shoulders and neck. The most surprising thing is the double-layer soundproof windows. After being tightly closed, almost all the hustle and bustle of the commercial district is filtered out. Even if you have to rush to the project PPT until 2am, you can sleep the whole night without being disturbed.
The next day's small docking meeting was scheduled in the shared reception area of the hotel. The day before, I only mentioned the need for temporary screen mirroring. When I arrived, the equipment had already been debugged and free hot and cold drinks, as well as paper and pens, had been arranged in advance. Halfway through, I had to print 30 modified application materials. The front desk directly contacted the neighboring printing shop and within 10 minutes, the neatly bound materials were delivered to me, which did not delay the progress of the meeting. Busy until noon, I had to wait for lunch at the chain restaurant downstairs for 20 minutes, saving nearly half an hour compared to queuing in the surrounding business district.
After three consecutive days of project docking, I squeezed half an hour of leisure time and walked 10 minutes to the wutong Road in the People's Square. I didn't have to take the time to run far. I walked twice in the wind, and most of the accumulated fatigue disappeared. The 24-hour self-service laundry room in the hotel has a drying function, and the shirts brought for business trips can be worn within two hours after washing, so there is no need to worry about changing laundry.
Throughout the entire journey, I hardly wasted any time on commuting or trivial matters. For business travelers who frequently travel to the core areas of Shanghai, a good place to stay is never to build luxurious high priced houses, but to arrange all business details with high cost-effectiveness, so that you can efficiently advance your work and catch your breath in the gaps of continuous rotation. Next time I come to the Nanjing West Road docking project, I will definitely lock in the JingLai Bushe Hotel Bund Nanjing West Road Shanghai directly. After all, it's really hard to find a budget hotel that can balance location, efficiency, and thoughtfulness so well in the core area.Show more
