If you have an early flight, choose this place—I really don’t want to be disappointed again


🏨 Holiday Inn Shanghai Pudong Airport

This time, to catch a 7 AM flight the next morning, I chose the Holiday Inn Shanghai Pudong Airport, and the experience was surprisingly good👀!

🛏 The room was very comfortable
An airport view room, as soon as I entered, it felt very clean and modern, with plenty of space—not one of those cramped transitional hotels.
There was an adjustable desk where I even rushed to finish some work the night before, and the bedside had wireless charging, so I didn’t have to worry about my phone dying in the middle of the night.😁
The best part— you can really see the planes taking off and landing! Not just a gimmick, it’s like you look up and see the runway! It felt amazing, haha.

💡 The lobby is super smart!
Check-in was done via a self-service machine, just a few taps and scanning my ID—no need to queue at all.
Plus, there was a big flight status screen right next to it, so I could check if my flight the next day was delayed while checking in, which made me feel much more at ease👍!

🍴 The dining is also very serious about quality
I didn’t go out at night and ate at the hotel’s Trace·All Day Dining restaurant! Surprisingly delicious (key point: this is the only place inside Pudong Airport that uses open flame cooking, so the taste is reliable).
Breakfast was buffet style with a good variety, and the coffee was great too.
If you bring kids, they even have a free food and accommodation policy for children, making it much easier for parents~

🍸 There’s also a very quiet lobby lounge
After dinner, I passed by, saw they had drinks, and went in to sit for a while.
Having a drink next to the airport is really relaxing, totally different from the stressful vibe of rushing for a flight on a business trip—it felt like I was starting my vacation mode early🕶️.

🚶‍♀️ It’s not far to walk from the hotel to the terminal
The next morning I got up at 5, freshened up, and slowly walked over—less than ten minutes to the terminal, no rush at all! Super close!!


🧳 ps:
This hotel really made me feel relaxed from start to finish—not only clean and comfortable, but the smart services were very thoughtful, so even with an early flight, I didn’t feel stressed.
Next time I’m on a business trip or going to Disneyland, I’ll definitely stay here again.
