This is a great hotel. I stay in hotels 100+ nights a year for several years now, and this place one of the best I have stayed in. Staff is excellent and facilities are great. Even the hotel restaurant, which I usually avoid like the plague, is really good. Location works well. Takes about 45-50 minutes to get there from the airport, but that isn't bad in Shanghai. Great gym and lap swimming pool also. I would definitly stay here again.
Excellent pool. The sky lobby is on the 38th floor, and has great views of the city. Walking distance to Bund district.

I stayed at the hotel repeated over a span of two years. Once you arrive in your cab, a young chinese doorman will greet you with a smile while opening the door for you. Once you walk in, a extremely gorgeous chinese lady will greet you again and lead you to the lift and up to the lobby in the middle of the 70plus storey hotel. The lower half of the hotel is a service apartment. The top half is a hotel. The lobby boast an extremely good view over downtown shanghai, as it over look the famed nanjing road and people's park. Rooms are average size and the mattress is extremely comfy. The music lounge just above the lobby level is great with excellent service. Price aren't too steep and they have a good selection of drinks. The gym at the six storey is extremely wll equipped. Their threadmills are equipped with an LCD Tv showing cable TV. Gym staffs are very polite and will offer you a bottle of water and towel. They even inquire if you are experienced in using the machines as well. Location is execellent. Lots of eateries in a building directly opposite the hotel. There is a Mcdonalds as welll, but surprisingly, China's Mc do not have the Big Breakfast.?.?.?

The JW Marriott Hotel's futuristic building
by mikelisaanna
The JW Marriott is one of the nicest hotels in Shanghai. It occupies the upper floors of the Tomorrow Square building next to Renmin Park on Nanjing Road. The building is one of the most recognizable ones in Shanghai, since it looks like a rocketship from a distance. The hotel's lobby is on the 38th floor and the rooms are above that. The rooms are nice, but not spectacular. What we enjoyed most were the views from the rooms and from the lobby and the common areas. The hotel is in very central location, which allows you to see most of the central city from its various windows.
The hotel has a number of restaurants. We ate at the cafe off the lobby, which has a western menu (with the best Western food that we had in China) and is also the location for the breakfast buffet. The hotel also has a heath club, with both indoor and outdoor pools. These are located on the 7th floor, which is a logistical challege to get to (2 elevator rides from your room each way), but nice and uncrowded one you get there.
The best thing about the hotel was its excellent location. Renmin Park is right across the street, and the Shanghai Museum is a 5-minute walk. All of the other significant sights in Shanghai are short cab rides away. The only drawback with this hotel is its cost. We got a decent deal, but it was still our most expensive hotel in China.

It was my first time at the JW Marriott. While this is a very good business hotel, but you can only say so much after staying in business hotels all the time.
Must say that it has nice conference facilities, and the ambience is very good all round. Amenities are all there, and the view is stunning from the rooms.
I guess the most interesting thing about the hotel is that the lobby is located on the 38th floor, unlike most hotels which have theirs on the ground floor. So immediately when you check in, you get a fantastic view of the city skyline.
But like I said, it's a business hotel, and as far as I'm concerned, this meets all my expectations, but it doesn't strike me as being particularly memorable.

It was great staying here. English is okay although if you speak Chinese it would be better.
The hotel provides mineral water for drinking and also for brushing your teeth in the bathroom! Definitely a convenient place to stay--near the subway station.
