This time, I came to Huangpu, Shanghai to follow up on a four-day offline project. I decided to stay at Magnificent International Hotel(Xintiandi People's Square) Shanghai. Originally, I only chose it for its location near the subway, but after staying, I realized that the facilities and configuration of this room completely exceeded the standard of 'fitting together', hiding every small need for long-term business and travel in the details.
The first feeling when I pushed open the door was that it was spacious and bright. The over 30 square meter space was not filled with redundant furniture, and warm and soft light emanated from the invisible light strips around it. There was no glaring sensation from the ordinary hotel main lights. As soon as I entered from the hot outside, I instantly relaxed. The spacious solid wood desk by the window is the place I have used the most these days. Its length of 1.2 meters is enough to hold a 16 inch workbook, an external monitor, a store inspection record book, and a pile of material samples at the same time. The edges of the desk are rounded and chamfered, so when I stay up late to change plans, my arms rest on it without getting hurt or sore. On the side wall of the desk, there are neatly arranged two five hole sockets, two USB-A fast charging ports, and one USB-C fast charging port. It is sufficient to charge my phone, headphones, and work computer at the same time, without having to search for long cables everywhere. Even my portable printer can be powered on at the same time.
The configuration of the bed area completely meets my sleeping needs. The 2-meter wide bed is covered with 80 high count cotton skin friendly bedding, which feels soft, smooth and breathable to the touch. The customized high rebound mattress is moderately soft and hard, and the waist position has been specially supported and reinforced. After being busy for several days until early in the morning, lying on the bed and running around the store for a day, the soreness in my waist dissipated in no time. There are independent touch desk lamps and charging panels installed on both sides of the bed, which can adjust the brightness of the lights without getting up. When waking up at night, turn on the darkest gear, and the light is soft and won't shake you awake. The soft bag bench at the back of the bed has a particularly strong load-bearing capacity. I placed two 28 inch suitcases on top of each other to tidy up my clothes, without having to squat on the ground and struggle to tidy them up.
The details of the facilities in the bathroom area are the most surprising, with a temperature controlled smart toilet seat that is warm to sit on. Even on a slightly cool morning in Shanghai, you don't have to bite your teeth and touch the cold seat cushion. The dual mode showerhead with top spray and handheld has dense and stable water output. After taking a hot shower all day, even the tightness in the calves was completely relieved. The bathroom area has undergone a complete separation of dry and wet areas, and the anti slip floor tiles are particularly reassuring to step on. After taking a shower, the floor will not accumulate water at all. The mirror headlights have a surround soft light design, so there are no unsightly shadows when applying makeup. Even the high-power hair dryer that I forgot to bring on a business trip and the quick drying model equipped in the hotel have enough wind power to blow dry medium to long hair in just 5 minutes.
The most impressive feature is the hidden mini bar area, where the pre prepared ice water in the small refrigerator is particularly refreshing to drink. The capsule coffee machine and complete tea set next to it make it much more convenient to make a cup of coffee when staying up late and changing plans, compared to ordering takeout. The quiet french window near the window closed, and the traffic noise on Lujiabang Road was almost completely isolated. Even at the peak of traffic in the inner ring at night, the room was quiet enough to hear the light sound of wutong shaking outside the window.
After four days of staying, without fancy internet celebrity facilities, Magnificent International Hotel(Xintiandi People's Square) Shanghai has hidden the core "usability" of long-term business travelers in every detail of daily use. Next time I stay in Huangpu for a long time, I will definitely choose this place without hesitation.Show more
