Manli Hotel Shanghai Pudong Airport Branch-Free shuttle buses to Pudong Airport and Disneyland
If you’re booking for the shuttle, don’t bother. The shuttle is very confusing, dirty, and inefficient. Pick up from the airport is near impossible and drop off is even worse. The last shuttle is at 2pm so if you have a late afternoon/evening flight it’ll be useless.

Ramada Plaza Shanghai Pudong Airport
A beautiful hotel however it really looks neglected. Our room looked like it had suffered with flooding, lots of mould on the walls.
