Season 18 is going to take you to a big garden. The theme of this time is still the parent-child hotel experience. Duoma's ER Bao pregnancy is in its 36th week, so she can't go far, so she has to stay in a hotel in Shanghai. The destination of this time is the east suburb hotel in Zhangjiang area of Shanghai. Maybe you will be more familiar with the west suburb hotel. In fact, according to mother Duoduo's careful research, there are four hotels in Shanghai, namely, the eastern, southern, Western and northern suburbs. The first one to bear the brunt is the old brand Xijiao Hotel. The hotel is located in the center of Shanghai, next to the Xijiao park. The garden of the Hotel is very beautiful. It belongs to the old and famous state guesthouse. It is said that there are red crowned cranes in it, But the price of the hotel is not cheap. It costs about 2000 yuan a night; Next is the Dongjiao Hotel, which is located in Zhangjiang area of Pudong. The surrounding environment is Zhangjiang Industrial Park, but the hotel is more private than the park. As for its allusions, Shanghai people know the secrets that cannot be said. In short, it is also a state-owned hotel's back garden, and the price is more than 1000; Thirdly, the north suburb hotel of Hengshan is located in Gucun park. Since it is close to the park, the environment will not be bad. The score of Ctrip is also very high, but the overall price is lower than that of the east suburb hotel; The last one is the Nanjiao hotel. The hotel is located in Fengxian District of Shanghai. It has all kinds of facilities. However, compared with the first three hotels, the price is only about 500. According to the careful research of Duoduo's mother,

There are too many exquisite landscape in Dongjiao hotel
We stayed in the most common luxury big bed room
There are many children's facilities in Changtai square
For lunch that day

There are too many exquisite landscape in Dongjiao hotel. In spring, Dongjiao hotel is full of vitality.

Coincidentally, this small outing was chosen on the day of the May Day holiday. Duoduo's mother, who has been brushing the weekend tour on Ctrip app, found that the price of the weekend tour package of Dongjiao hotel fell during the May Day holiday. It is estimated that the main reason is that such hotels usually have more business reception, but the May Day holiday has entered the off-season. So long grass has been a lot of a hurry to order. Order No.: 1312650096 Product Name: Shanghai Dongjiao Hotel 1 night + century park tickets + Double Deluxe Buffet breakfast · special discount on May 1 morning! Package includes: Deluxe big bed room for one night (including double breakfast) + 2 tickets for Century Park. Price: 776 yuan (APP client can pay 10 yuan, originally 786 yuan) http://taocan.ctrip.com/sh/90573.html As you can see, the price of this hotel's post holiday package starts from 1008 yuan, which is really a low point during May Day, I didn't expect that I could enjoy the price of the staggered peak tour out of Shanghai.

Dongjiao hotel is a big park, because it is less trampled by tourists and better maintained, so the environment is much better than the park.

How good is the garden of Dongjiao hotel? With its own post in the elevator profile to answer, 1200 acres of land, 80% are gardens. You can spend a whole afternoon strolling around the eastern suburb hotel. There are big lakes and lawns everywhere. Small fish are shuttling in the clear water, and groups of lovely ducklings are waiting for you to explore. Teahouses and kiosks in the middle of the lake are for you to have a rest. Fresh bamboo shoots can be seen everywhere in spring. This is really a holiday hotel suitable for all ages. So, during the whole stay, we met most of the local people who spoke Shanghai dialect and were slightly older. It seems that this place is really the back garden of Shanghai people. Give you an official website: http://www.dongjiao-hotel.com/

Our little protagonist Duoduo is quite satisfied with the parent-child tour!

The transportation of Dongjiao hotel is not well developed. Maybe it was built here for the purpose of privacy. Dongjiao hotel still undertakes a lot of business conference reception functions, so whether the subway can reach it is definitely not in its consideration. In fact, the nearest subway station is Jinke Road Station of line 2. It should take 20 minutes to half an hour to walk along Jinke road from the hotel. The road is not tortuous, but it is really long. Besides, it takes half an hour to walk from the hotel to the door. According to the official website for the transportation of Dongjiao Hotel, the address is 1800 Jinke Road, Pudong New Area, Shanghai. Its geographical location is "adjacent to Pudong Zhangjiang High Tech Park, Jinke road in the East, Tangchen golf course in the west, Longdong Avenue, the main road from Shanghai downtown to Pudong International Airport in the south, and Zhangjiabang green landscape river course in the north, It has a very superior geographical location and unique ecological environment, and the transportation is very convenient“ To be honest, it's not too far from the city center. People who often go to Pudong must know that Pudong is so big that it's definitely the city center. However, it is not recommended for foreign tourists to stay in Dongjiao hotel when they come to Shanghai for the first time, because it's really inconvenient to travel. It's suitable for self driving.

Sprinklers can be seen everywhere in the hotel, a vibrant look.

When it comes to the parent-child facilities of Dongjiao Hotel, we have to mention the fitness center of Dongjiao Hotel, which is called Clark Hatch Fitness Center of Dongjiao hotel. It occupies the whole building of Dongjiao hotel. There are swimming pool and gym, badminton hall, bowling hall, table tennis hall, tennis hall and so on, There is also a small children's paradise in the basement. Of course, there is a visit to it. I will introduce it with pictures in the following travel notes. When children come to the east suburb Hotel, they first place themselves in the beautiful garden, get close to nature, and have deep contact with all kinds of animals and plants; The second is to experience the swimming facilities here. There is a good baby pool for children to enjoy; If not, you can play children's park or older children can play badminton, table tennis and so on. Anyway, just taking a walk in the garden can take you a whole day. My evaluation of Dongjiao hotel has both business function and parent-child function.

In spring, the eastern suburb hotel is full of colorful, elegant environment, birds singing and flowers fragrance, and sparsely populated.

Entertainment and leisure around Dongjiao Hotel: the packages of Dongjiao Hotel sold by Ctrip either sell tickets for century park or Shanghai Science and Technology Museum. Both of them are not far away from Dongjiao Hotel, but the premise is that they must go by car. The hotel is not too far away from the new international convention and Exhibition Center. If you come to see the exhibition, you can choose to stay. Further away, it is not far away from the Oriental Pearl and the scenic spots in Lujiazui. One of the surrounding business districts is the area between Kerry City and Himalayan center, where there are more foreigners. It is surrounded by high-end communities, with a good shopping and dining environment. Another business district is Changtai square, which has not been opened for a long time. At present, there is no parking fee. The flow of people in the business district is moderate, and there are all kinds of food, drink and play. It's very convenient to drive from the hotel for 5 minutes. I will introduce Changtai square in detail in my travel notes later. Our catering for two days was settled there.

Dongjiao hotel is full of beautiful scenery. It depends on whether your eyes are good at discovering. It's just a beautiful scenery found under an ordinary tree.

Q & A: 1. Can we set up tents on the lawn of the hotel? We thought we couldn't do it. It's so beautiful and the lawn is so well repaired. How can we accommodate the tent? But in fact, on the second day of our stay, we found that there were two tents on the lawn, two families were flying kites, and there was no staff to stop them, so it indicated that we could set up tents. I don't know if they were expelled in the future. I still need to ask the official opinion of the hotel. Can I go in to the hotel? If you don't stay in a hotel, can you go in and play? The answer is: luck. We have friends who drive into the hotel and want to have a look, but they are stopped by the doorman. However, most of the time, we can drive straight in. From check-in to leave, the doorman didn't stop us to ask us. Of course, it's better not to do such things as rubbing the hotel. Swimming in the hotel is free, so I tell you weakly that it is feasible to bring friends to swim, but there is always a guilt of picking up the cheap. Can I catch fish and feed ducks? It's OK to feed the ducks, if you want to find out where the mother duck and the babies are, we're not lucky. We didn't find them during our stay. The pond of the hotel is very clear. There are all kinds of small fish, frogs, toads and so on. We tried to fish them in a small bowl. We can catch them at random. The hotel is sparsely populated, and there is no staff to stop us from fishing small fish. But for the ecology of the hotel, it's better to fish and let them go.

The guide map of the eastern suburb Hotel Park provided by the hotel to the guests indicates the walking path of the hotel. You can get it from the front desk and follow the map to visit the big garden.

Next, I'll follow our itinerary and give you a detailed introduction of how we experienced the Dongjiao hotel in this parent-child tour. Let's go!

There are six buildings in the east suburb Hotel, including the East Building, the conference center, the south building, the North Building and the fitness center. Ordinary residents are usually arranged in the East Building of the northeast corner of the hotel, and the south building looks very tall, like a reception building for leaders. You can park at the gate of the East Building, but the parking space is tight. The underground garage is relatively spacious, and it can go directly to the lobby. The next two pictures are the gate of the East Building, which is quite magnificent.

Shanghai Dongjiao Hotel

The introduction of the hotel starts from the following photo. Shanghai Dongjiao hotel was rated as the best resort hotel of 2014 on the Ctrip Travel reputation list, with a high praise rate of 98%. After checking the ranking of Ctrip hotel, the score of Dongjiao hotel is 4.8, which is based on 1199 personal comments, indicating that the hotel is excellent.

Shanghai Dongjiao Hotel

We stayed in the most common luxury big bed room, with an area of 42 square meters, solemn and elegant atmosphere, and relatively old facilities. However, the state guesthouses are all like this. They are standard, but they are standard. The bathroom of the hotel has both shower and bathtub. We can't see what the sanitary ware is. It doesn't seem to be a high-end brand. The bed in the hotel is quite comfortable, the room is not very stuffy, the windows can be opened slightly, and the ventilation is good. The welcome fruit presented by the hotel is not very good-looking. The state-owned flavor is quite strong, but it is a wish of the hotel.

Shanghai Dongjiao Hotel

The lobby on the East floor of the hotel is not as grand as you think. Fortunately, the service is pretty good. There is a small place for afternoon tea in the lobby. It looks ordinary and doesn't have a big appetite. Hotel room card, if there is no special request, a room only to one, but fortunately, you can use other cards instead of electricity. There are five floors of guest rooms in the East building. There is a sign at the elevator entrance, indicating the location of the breakfast restaurant, the schedule of the sightseeing shuttle bus and the map of the hotel.

Shanghai Dongjiao Hotel

Because the hotel is very large, you have to rely on the sightseeing bus of the hotel to travel. The bus is still very smooth in the hotel, and the turning is a little urgent. Ha ha, the shape of the old car is very attractive to children, and it's really a dead man to walk without this bus in the hotel.

Shanghai Dongjiao Hotel

Just across from the East Building, you can see that there are all these two children's amusement facilities on the lawn. It's not fun for children to play. Moreover, the residents are all in the East Building, so it seems that these two facilities are very lively. After the rainy day, the facilities were a little dirty, but the lawn at the door was still green and green, not bare because of people's trampling.

Shanghai Dongjiao Hotel

The hotel's conference center and the gate of the North Building happened to take on the wedding ceremony that day. Duoduo's mother also fantasized about how beautiful it was to hold a wedding in such a solemn and elegant environment. Unfortunately, there was no chance. She had to travel to other places to make up for it.

Shanghai Dongjiao Hotel

There is a place called Linju on the map, which is a secret place for tea and rest. The place is next to the fitness center, which is easy to be ignored. It's a very good choice to sit here drinking tea, chatting, breathing the refreshing air of the hotel and enjoying the green garden. There are several lovely wrens on the edge of Linju. They can say some words, such as "rice cutting", "monster", "hate", "congratulations on getting rich". It's very interesting to play with them. Many children have a good chat with them.

Shanghai Dongjiao Hotel

Another parent-child activity of the hotel was discovered by us. There are many sprouting and tall shoots everywhere in the hotel. Under the guidance of mom and Dad, Duoduo got to know these fast-growing plants. The sprouting shoots after the rain are so attractive and crazy, which adds a lot of fun to our trip to the eastern suburb Hotel.

Shanghai Dongjiao Hotel

The next group of photos, is a lot of grandparents to help us take photos of the characters, come out to play, it's good to have a photographer to follow. Although the photography level of Daduo's grandparents has been criticized by all kinds of "real photographers" (from time to time, some people criticized their photography skills and said they were sorry for the camera in Daduo's Travels), as their children, they want to understand what beauty is in their eyes, accept the world in their eyes, and understand why they love to take portraits. As a matter of fact, it's important to take photos as long as you recognize yourself in your heart. There are no absolutely beautiful photos or absolutely ugly photos. Everyone's opinions are different. This is a question without standard answers. Why be so stingy about other people's photos? What the photos want to record is not the picture in everyone's mind at that time.

Shanghai Dongjiao Hotel

The next group of photos is the beautiful landscape of every corner of the eastern suburb hotel. We went to the hotel just after the heavy rain. Although there is no blue sky and white clouds, the green looks more delicate after the spring rain. Follow our steps and walk around the eastern suburb hotel.

Shanghai Dongjiao Hotel

As we have just introduced, the fitness facilities of Dongjiao hotel are all gathered in one building, which is the Clark Hatch Fitness Center located in the northwest corner of the hotel. In addition to receiving hotel guests, the fitness center also recruits members for the community. The sports of the fitness center include indoor tennis, outdoor tennis, badminton, table tennis, squash, bowling, billiards, recreation room, table tennis, table tennis and so on Fitness and swimming. In addition, the fitness center has dance halls, cinemas (50 seats), KTV rooms, mahjong rooms, chess and card rooms and other entertainment. The front desk of the fitness center has a clearly marked price list, and the facilities inside are quite rich and attractive.

Shanghai Dongjiao Hotel

The internal rest area of the fitness center and the badminton hall. The charge of the badminton hall is 120 yuan per hour during non peak hours and 180 yuan per hour during peak hours.

Shanghai Dongjiao Hotel

The gymnasium of the fitness center is not big. It is located on the second floor of the fitness center. The reception inside is kind and gentle. We think it's more relaxing and pleasant in the outdoor garden of the hotel if it's just for running.

Shanghai Dongjiao Hotel

The swimming pool of the hotel is divided into standard pool and baby pool. We swam twice during our stay and felt very good. Swimming requires a room card at the front desk of the fitness center, but a room card does not limit a few keys. There is also a slide in the baby pool. The overall water temperature is suitable. The children have a good time. The changing facilities in the swimming pool are very good, which will be introduced when we swim tomorrow.

Shanghai Dongjiao Hotel

Changtai Plaza is a new commercial plaza. It's about 5 minutes' drive away from the hotel. The hotel is at 1800 Jinke Road, and Changtai Plaza is in lane 2889 Jinke Road (Jinke Road subway station of line 2). The occupancy rate of merchants in Changtai Plaza has been relatively high. All kinds of food, drink and play should be provided. Parking is free for the time being, but the underground parking garage is a bit labyrinth. Warning everyone, do not look at the side of the road so many cars to save time and effort to park the car on the road, the sticker rate here is still quite high. And the police uncle in May day such day also let everyone, many mother's friend was pasted during. There is an open fountain in the center of Changtai square. Children are running happily here. Imagine the scene of summer. It should be more lively here. The brands settled here are similar to most commercial squares. They belong to medium-sized commercial squares, similar to Wanda.

Changtai Plaza

There are many children's facilities in Changtai square. For example, this small train shuttles through the square, and there is a special railway station, which naturally attracts the eyes of children.

Changtai Plaza

We chose to eat hot pot. As a 36 week pregnant woman, Duoduo's mother is also a heavy taste. Xiaohuige hotpot is a hotpot chain store that has sprung up in the past two years. It's not cheap to have a delicate hotpot. The dishes are about 125 per capita. I don't think I need to introduce more about it. Ordinary hotpot will be regarded as a nursery if I say more about it. Ha ha.

Xiaohuige hot pot

A beautiful day starts with breakfast. Unfortunately, compared with its garden, the breakfast in Dongjiao Hotel didn't give us any surprise. The restaurant is located on the fifth floor of the East building. There is nothing to be praised in terms of the environment, service, dishes and taste of the restaurant. Maybe the garden yesterday was too surprised for us, so we were a little disappointed when we had breakfast. During this period, because breakfast is coming to an end, milk and orange juice are no longer added. As a five-star hotel, this is also worse. We didn't ask much about the hotel's policy on children's breakfast. We only know that Duoduo is 3.5 years old and 1.05 meters tall. It's free to go in for breakfast.

Shanghai Dongjiao Hotel

After breakfast, continue to visit the garden in Dongjiao Hotel, the weather today is much better than yesterday, at least you can see some blue sky and white clouds, so the scenery is more beautiful than yesterday. Duoduo's father takes Duoduo to enjoy football on the lawn and watch the fish by the pond. His mother can only play with Duoduo with a twig. Fortunately, Duoduo is willing to walk recently. In the previous stage, when he went out to play, he always asked us to hold him. Fresh air is so relaxed and happy!

Shanghai Dongjiao Hotel

Today, we came to the children's paradise on the ground floor of the fitness center. In terms of area, the children's paradise here is not too big, and the facilities are also very limited. It is basically a small climbing facility, equipped with two curling balls and touch ball tables on the side, so Duoduo has no motivation after playing in it for a few minutes, I still want to go swimming.

Shanghai Dongjiao Hotel

The facilities of the swimming pool and changing room in the fitness center are very sound, including sauna, Jacuzzi, private room and rest room (when we took photos, we chose the time when there was no one, otherwise it would be inhumane to take photos of people, and it would be a crime to take photos of the changing room). Duoduo and his father are still in the baby pool, because his mother has a big stomach and can't get into the water, so Duoduo's father can only accompany Duoduo all the time and give up his leisure time to swim in the big pool.

Shanghai Dongjiao Hotel

After swimming, the whole family went to the bowling alley to experience it. There was a little episode here, which was the most unpleasant thing for them to stay in Dongjiao hotel this time. We registered for bowling at the front desk of the fitness center. At that time, we didn't tell us that bowling was a charge. When we finished the first round, the front desk said that we would charge 48 yuan, but it was not expensive. But the front desk didn't tell us that it was a charge before. The front desk's attitude was quite arrogant, as if we didn't pay, Take out a knife invoice and say that we have received several rounds today (the money has been paid), which is also illogical. Also take out a price list that is totally out of line with the price list to show us. It looks like we are treating the poor and the poor. Although we are not members of the luxury club here, we do not intend to pay, In a word, she didn't remind us that it was a charging item before, and she didn't feel guilty at all. Instead, she felt that we should have known that it was a charging item. For the service of five-star hotels, such a service staff really made us feel like eating flies, and we didn't have to talk much, so we left.

Shanghai Dongjiao Hotel

For lunch that day, we went to Changtai square where we felt good yesterday. The three storey European style building in Changtai square looks more beautiful under the blue sky and white clouds. Today, we have a detailed understanding of the recreational facilities here, and found that there are some unique features, such as excavators, children's bungee jumping, small trains, 5D movies, etc. It's in the open air on the second floor of Changtai square, where many children come to play. It's really a good choice for parents and children. All the food, drink and play are here.

Changtai Plaza

On a sunny afternoon, we chose the pizza with the same sunshine on the floor glass Express Italian restaurant as a place to eat, the restaurant may be new in Shanghai, is a world chain brand, the decoration of the restaurant is very European, simple and generous, the environment is the most attractive. The dishes are nothing more than pizza and pasta. The pizza tastes good. Duoduo ordered a children's set meal for him, and he got his cappuccino and cut up the pizza. May afternoon, with the sun is very hot, but in the face of such sunshine, who is not happy?

Pizza Express

This is the end of the parent-child tour of Dongjiao hotel in Shanghai. To sum up, it's fun and not tiring. Dongjiao hotel is a good leisure place for parent-child tour. For the environmental facilities of Dongjiao Hotel, we have five stars. We highly recommend it as a destination for parent-child travel. There are few unsatisfactory places. There is such an episode in the travel notes. I believe you will not have too many opportunities. Finally, I'd like to give some lazy advice to my friends who are going to have a parent-child tour. Because my family is very lazy, we can sleep late until more than 9 o'clock every morning. Every time, we get up for fear of missing breakfast. Many children can't wake up and get up angry. So we have the following experience about hotel breakfast and check-out: hotel breakfast: hotel breakfast usually ends between 10:00 and 10:30. If your family is also lazy, remember to ask the end time of the front desk, and don't miss it. Then before the end, the restaurant will take all the food at once, so as to avoid the dilemma of the end of breakfast after a round. Check in and check out time: the check-in time of a hotel is usually 2 p.m., and a better hotel can accommodate you when you arrive early, so that you can check in first. Of course, some hotels will shut you down. The check-out time of a hotel is usually 12:00, but as a lazy family, it's too late to finish breakfast and pack. Fortunately, most hotels can apply for delayed check-out until 2:00 p.m., and you can even use the extra two hours to have a swim in the hotel, because most people check out, So the swimming pool often deals with the condition of the pool at this point in the afternoon. There's no reason for late check-out. Negotiate with the front desk of the hotel. If the room is not so tight, most of them can apply successfully. Especially for our parents and children, they often stay on Saturdays and leave on Sundays. There is no peak time for the hotel on Sundays, so they usually apply for late check-out. Well, Duoduo went to island 18 and finished it in one go. I don't know if you like such a small outing in Shanghai?
