Xijiao State Guest Hotel

Set in Changning on Shanghai’s west side, this leafy 5-star garden guesthouse sits minutes from West Nanjing Road and Jing'an Temple. Hongqiao International Airport (SHA) is about 4.3 km (2.7 mi) away. The Bund and People’s Square are within easy reach by car.

Founded in 1960, the hotel spreads across extensive tree-lined gardens and lawns. Expect a mix of classic suites and around 300 guestrooms plus a collection of private villas, some with balconies or terraces. Rooms come with minibars, safes, coffee/tea makers and daily housekeeping. Note: air conditioning is centrally controlled and runs during specific hours.

Dive into an indoor pool, hit the outdoor tennis court or sweat it out in the full sports center and fitness gym. Unwind in the sauna, spa or beauty salon, or go quirky with karaoke, a bowling club and kids’ playrooms—family-friendly vibes. Wake up to garden views and use concierge services, salon, and a roundtrip airport shuttle (surcharge).

A large conference center and meeting rooms handle events and banquets with ease. There’s a business center on-site, complimentary wired and wireless internet, 24-hour reception, and laundry/dry-cleaning services for a smooth corporate stay.
