Kevin's Old House is located at the downtown area of Shanghai, just a 10-minute stroll from Jing'an Temple Subway Station (Line 2). It features European-inspired accommodation with classic furnishings and elegant décor.

Super location for anyone who wants to be in the French Concession. It's a 3 minute walk from Anfu Lu. The staff in the hotel and the very good Italian restaurant downstairs were all so lovely, friendly, helpful, warmhearted that my days of coming and going to and from Shanghai and staying with them at intervals were a joy! And from a very practical point of view, the washing machine in my bathroom was a very nice surprise! And the staff really went to trouble to make sure that guests had something they loved for breakfast. Big thanks to Xiao Zu (spelling?!), Aiyi, Guido, Monica, David and everyone who made my stay there so lovely!

    Fantastic hotel located in a very local district, abt 15 mins by car fr Pudong airport. Perfect for stopover before/after flight, visit Disneyland or Florentia Village outlets for shopping. Staff is amazing, good spread of breakfast with made-to-order noodles & dumpling station. Variety of restaurants within 2-3 mins (including a Starbucks), and local Chinese supermarket just 2 mins walk besides the hotel. Highly recommended, will certainly stay here again for my next visit.
