The Ritz-Carlton executive room for just over 1K is such a steal!

1⃣️ Location 🍃 700m from Luomashi Metro Station, about 1.5-2km from Chunxi Road/Taikoo Li 🌳 2⃣️ Design Aesthetic 🌱 Dated - public areas and restaurants are better than guest rooms. The lobby welcome area, check-in zone, and lounge bar show some thematic design with thoughtful details that barely maintain standards. Guest rooms are mediocre with typical last-century decor style 🌲 3⃣️ Rooms 🌿 Base rooms start at 50 sqm - sufficient for solo stays but bland in design with no details, just a place to sleep 🌵 4⃣️ Service ☘️ The "ladies and gentlemen" strive to uphold the reputation. Welcome fruit was underwhelming, though they compensated with a panda plush. Service at Li Xuan Chinese Restaurant outperforms the hotel's - we arrived early for our reserved dining time and wandered around casually 🍁
