Today, I received another request from a client asking us to deliver printed materials to Dorsett Shanghai.
To be honest, many years ago, I didn’t even know this hotel.
In my mind, that area of Shanghai was mostly filled with business-style, budget-friendly hotels. It wasn’t a place I would normally associate with international visitors or exhibition clients.
But over the years, something changed.
I started to notice that many of my international clients—especially those coming to Shanghai for exhibitions or business trips—kept mentioning the same hotel: Dorsett Shanghai.
At first, I didn’t think much about it.
Then one day, I personally went there to deliver a batch of printed materials.
That’s when I began to understand.
I won’t go into details, because I’m not a guest of the hotel, and I don’t think I have the full authority to explain why people choose it. But after seeing the location and the surrounding environment, it made sense why so many overseas clients prefer staying there.
So if this is your first time coming to Shanghai, and you’re not sure where to stay, Dorsett Shanghai could be one of your options.
From our side—as a printing and exhibition support team—this also means something important.
Although we regularly deliver to this hotel, it is actually quite far from our facility. So if you need urgent printing, last-minute materials, or exhibition display items delivered there, we strongly recommend contacting us at least 24 hours in advance.
Otherwise, same-day delivery across the city may cost at least USD $50 or more, depending on timing and urgency.
At Call2Print, we work closely with international clients who come to Shanghai for exhibitions, business meetings, and events. Whether it’s books, catalogs, brochures, or exhibition displays, we understand how critical timing and location can be.
And sometimes, even a hotel choice can affect your printing logistics.
If you are planning a trip to Shanghai and need reliable printing or exhibition support, feel free to reach out. We’re always here to help — whether it’s your first visit or your tenth.
