I will arrive Pudong Int''l Airport in March 27th. Please tell me what is the best way to Pullman Shanghai Skyway Hotel. Thanks
Dear Vanna,
The convenient way is to take a taxi to the hotel directly, it is about 45 minutes and it costs about CNY200/US$32 per car. You also could take line 2 subway to People square where is about 4 km from the hotel, then take a taxi to the hotel, it can save your money.
