Find a home inn near the Expo site, and the drive should not exceed 2 hours!

First question: you don't have to live near the Expo site. It's convenient near the subway and cheaper than near the Expo site. It takes about 45 minutes to get to the Expo site, so try to save as much as possible. When you get to Shanghai, you might as well spend your money on places to eat and play! However, I would like to recommend some hotels for you, including hotels near the Expo site and hotels near the subway in other places. See below:

Starway Fu Shang Holiday Hotel (Nanjing East Road), 300 per night-400 yuan.

In Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street, there are only three stops from the subway to the railway station, and there are four stops from the subway line 8 to the Expo Park, which takes about 10 minutes. Transportation, eating, shopping and playing are very convenient.

Green tree inn Shanghai Yanchang road branch 250- 350 yuan every night

It takes only 1 minute to walk (200m) from the subway 1 line, and it takes only about 30 minutes to transfer from the Expo site to Line 8 to People's Square Station, which is very convenient for transportation, eating, playing and shopping.

Hanting Lanling Market Store 200- Every night in 300 yuan

It's about 2 minutes' walk (about 400 meters) from Metro Line 7, and it can go directly to Expo Park, Houtan Station and Changqing Road Station, with convenient transportation.

Home Inn Lujiabang Road, 250 per night-400 yuan (near the Expo Park)

It takes about 10 minutes to walk to Puxi intersection of the Expo site, and the Expo site can be reached by subway line 8 1 station, with convenient transportation, shopping and eating.

Of course, if you want to be cheaper, you don't have to emphasize chain hotels. I strongly recommend you: Shanghai Yin Da International Youth Hostel is only 8 minutes' walk from Pudong Avenue Station of Metro Line 4 and about 15 minutes' walk from Century Avenue Station of Metro Lines 2, 4 and 6. It is convenient to get to the airport or railway station by rail transit. There are more than 20 bus lines in front of the hotel, which are far from the Oriental Pearl and Jinmao Building.

The hostel has standard rooms, queen beds and many rooms to choose from. Each room has its own bathroom, air conditioning and 24-hour hot water supply. (Google it, both)

Well, I hope I can help you with that. If you have any questions, please add them. I'm happy to provide as much information as possible for your trip to the World Expo. I have worked in Shanghai hotel industry and tourism for many years. You can add me if you need more detailed information.

Finally, I wish you an unforgettable Expo summer.
