“Jing'an's skyline views, fraying edges”

Jing'an Shangri-La, Shanghai is a city-centre hotel with amazing views — a standout spa, convenient transport, a food-rich mall downstairs, and friendly staff (Jimmy granted a late-night Horizon Club upgrade with photogenic night views; the desk allows early check-in). But two detailed complaints matter: Horizon Club staff were seen pushing sales while treating existing club guests rudely, daily fruit arrived overripe then spoiled, and breakfast is not recommended; another guest found a dead bedside socket (verified on video) with no socket on the other side, declined a midnight room swap, then was re-awoken by a duty manager re-asking — the lounge breakfast was called ugly and bad. Facilities skew dated.
