From the listing
Jin Jiang Hotel (Cathay Building)
Details below come from the public listing, not from an on-site visit.
The 1929 Cathay Mansions and 1935 Grosvenor House — Sassoon-built Art Deco towers that became New China’s first state guesthouse, host to some three hundred heads of state. Sleeping in this much history rarely costs this little.
Worth knowing before you book. The plumbing is as historic as the façade — reviews report real water issues. Ask for a recently renovated Cathay Building room, not just any room.

Staying past 3 months?
A serviced apartment stops making sense around the three-month mark. Home88 handles long-term leases in Shanghai for international tenants — flat search, viewings, and contracts with the landlord.
