The Best Mid-Range Hotels

Quintet (Changle Lu 808, Jing An; tel. 021/6249-9088): For those who want to wake up in a typical 1930s Shanghai longtang (lane) house, and who don't need a lot of hotel facilities, this delightful bed-and-breakfast in the French Concession will deliver the goods. You'll walk on original hardwood floors, but sleep in comfortable, modern beds and have access to Wi-Fi. You'll also smell the aromas and hear the sounds of daily life in the longtang. It's nothing fancy, but it's authentic, charming, and reasonably priced.

Captain Hostel (Fuzhou Lu 37, Huangpu; tel. 021/6323-5053): Lodged in a 1920s Art Deco building just steps from the Bund, this popular maritime-themed hostel offers clean dorms and simple double "cabins" for around ¥400 after discount, a whopping good bargain for its location. After a hard day's sightseeing, you can sip a cold beer on the rooftop bar (which has fabulous views of Pudong) and be grateful you weren't shanghaied like a sailor of yore.
