Pros:

Лучший отель из всех где мы останавливались в Шанхае. До этого проживали в Peninsula и пожалели что не выбрали Waldorf на весь период нахождения в Шанхае.
Лучший отель во всех отношениях - невероятно чистый, красивый, в штате исключительно высококвалифицированный персонал, великолепные завтраки.

Cons:

Все понравилось
