Negatief: Netheid, voorzieningen en staat van de accommodatie en faciliteiten
I stayed four nights over Christmas at The St. Regis Jing’an, having booked a Junior Suite but was “upgraded” without being told that the new room was in the serviced apartments, not the main hotel. This lack of transparency shaped a disappointing experience. The apartment lacked standard five‑star amenities like a coffee machine and did not receive daily housekeeping or turndown service until repeatedly requested.
Staff communication was inconsistent, with limited English proficiency, and the much‑promoted “butler service” was just an anonymous hotline—no personal contact or follow‑up. Operationally, the hotel seemed poorly managed, as shown by long queues at checkout despite idle staff elsewhere.
The room was spacious but worn, showing stains and cracks, and I even found a cockroach in the hallway that remained until I reported it. Food and beverage service were below par—lukewarm coffee, untoasted bread, and uninspired bar drinks. Facilities like the pool were fine but poorly communicated; required swimming caps were not mentioned until arrival.
Overall, the stay revealed systemic service and management failures. Staff appeared defensive rather than empathetic, and the brand’s signature touches—personalized service, elegance, anticipatory care—were absent. Having stayed at many St. Regis properties, this location fell far below expectations.
The St. Regis Jing’an lacks the polish, warmth, and attention to detail befitting the brand.
