This five-star hotel is located at the original site of the Jing An Hilton. In 1988, the Beijing Kunlun Hotel officially opened as the first five-star hotel in the capital. Over the next 30 years, the Beijing Kunlun, as one of China's best national brand hotels, hosted countless state events, providing high-quality services and perfect dining experiences for countless national politicians, leaders of various countries, and international guests, setting a benchmark in the industry and establishing a good reputation. In the same year, the first international brand hotel in the Jing An area, the former Shanghai Hilton Hotel, made its grand debut in Shanghai, the city with the fastest economic development in China. It created a brilliant 30 years. The hotel is famous for its excellent service and commitment to continuously giving back to the community. It has won a prominent position in the history of the Shanghai hotel industry and is a well-deserved iconic hotel. In 2018, these two prestigious landmark hotels combined their stories in the two most important international metropolises in China, and became the origin of Jing An Kunlun.

🍁An old five-star hotel in Shanghai, its predecessor was the first Hilton Hotel in China, and now it has been rebranded as Jing'an Kunlun to continue the classic. 🍁The lobby is still the same as it was during the Hilton era. First of all, the hotel lobby is very grand, the waiting area is well lit, and what attracts people is this marble spiral staircase, which is very suitable for newlyweds to take long tail wedding photos. There is also a pyramid-top octagonal swimming pool, indoor garden, all are the original level of 'net red check-in place' 🍁The hotel and Jing'an Guest House have jointly opened a lawn, with an area of about 700-800 square meters, where outdoor lawn ceremonies can be held in the afternoon. Attending a friend's wedding, the dishes are mainly Cantonese cuisine, the dishes are very full, it is a high cost-effective wedding venue!

This hotel looks wonderful from the outside and it’s foyer/reception area is very impressive. But the room I stayed in was not 5 star compared to other 5 star hotels I’ve stayed at. Shower curtains compared to glass shower doors are one feature that shoes this hotel is in need of a modern upgrade. No coffee machine in the room, and why have old-fashioned scales in the bathroom?? The bathroom was small and the toilet area was poorly lit. The bed was comfortable but the pillows were flat and perhaps firmer pillows ensure a better nights’ sleep. If you want to watch a film, it’s 38 rmb thank you very much. Room service- a can of Coke is 25 rmb, a wagging beef burger with fries will set you back around 140 rmb. If you have a sweet tooth, baked cheesecake slice will cost 65 rmb, Carpets are worn, and the towels have frayed edges. A grand lady in need of a facelift. You are paying 5 star price for a 4 star hotel. #downtownshanghai That aside, check in process was smooth and staff were very efficient. Location is convenient and Jing’An Temple Metro station is less than 5 minute’s walk from the hotel.

There are quite a few newly opened restaurants. Near Jing'an Temple is a shopping district that I like. In the original Jing'an Hilton, now the Kunlun Hotel opened a restaurant in Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces. It is mainly fresh, and the dishes are quite mixed. There are Taizhou seafood and classic Sichuan cuisine. It also incorporates a lot of Shanghai style gangs. The old Shanghai smoked fish is very good for me. The crispy and tender fish outside, the sweet sauce is just right, it is the taste of the gang. Scallion oil three yellow chicken, onion oil taste is not very strong, three yellow chicken is very tender, good sauce. The three treasures of savory sauce, the delicate cucumber smashed into a twist shape, as well as the fungus and okra, are very hot and spicy. Garden mixed vegetables, vegetables mixed, mixed with vinegar juice, very healthy and low fat. Four-up roasting is also the taste of the mouth that I like. The gap of the bran is evenly filled with taste and sweetness. soup is an old fire soup, pigeon soup, very light, Cantonese style soup has always been top, Amway. The hot dish has a simmered beef face, the meat is very crisp, the sauce is full, fresh peas and sweet lily are added, it is delicious; the shrimp in the Gongbaoming shrimp ball is very large, and the onion is added, the shrimp is full of elasticity, sauce With red oil, a dish that inherits the essence of Sichuan cuisine, don't think that Sichuan cuisine is super spicy. Braised fresh fish, a dish from the beach, miscellaneous fish mainly used tofu fish also called faucet, very tender, thick sauce. Crab powder tender tofu, a lot of crab powder, tofu and put a little crab vinegar is a classic. Black chicken is a vegetarian dish, chicken cockroach is a fungus, its seasonality, plus okra with a little viscosity, simply not too delicious. Jujube crispy roast duck, roast duck is Beijing's embryonic duck, kept in the air

Speaking of the cafeteria on the beach, the weekend dinner of Jingan Pavilion at Jingan Kunlun Hotel is definitely one of the best. Into the Liantiange is really "connected with the sky", there is a small bridge under the transparent roof, the trees shadow, the music is vague. Under the glass zenith, global cuisine. The first thing that comes into view is seafood. The salmon long-legged crab shells are also imported from France. Japanese cuisine, teppanyaki, Chinese noodle soup, and local dishes are all available. Dessert is a girl's favorite, chocolate mousse, fruit cheese, and my favorite layer of snow matcha cake, the taste is exactly the same as I tasted in Japan, the endless aftertaste. Five-star service is in place. Just seated, the waiter told me that one of the big lobsters was presented to each person today. There are three flavors to choose from, which is a surprise. This is suitable for family reunion. It is more suitable for lyrical exercise, romantic dining atmosphere, night light and little bit, and I have a good weekend with me.
