Faut-il l'adresse de l'hôtel en chinois ?

Q: Faut-il l'adresse de l'hôtel en chinois ?

Yes. Save your hotel's full name and address in Chinese characters — a screenshot is enough — and show it to taxi or DiDi drivers. English or pinyin often isn't recognized, and many hotels have a Chinese name unrelated to their English one. The Chinese characters plus a phone number are the most reliable way to reach your door.

Why English isn't enough

Most drivers don't read English or pinyin, and a hotel's English brand name may differ entirely from its registered Chinese name. Handing over the Chinese address removes the guesswork — and a phone number lets the driver call if they're unsure.

How to get it

Your booking confirmation (Trip.com, Booking, the hotel's own email) often lists the Chinese name and address.
Search the hotel in Amap or Apple Maps and screenshot the Chinese name and address.
Email the hotel and ask for their address card in Chinese — most send one for exactly this.

Use it

Show the screenshot to the driver, or save it as a saved address in DiDi.
Keep an offline copy (a screenshot in your photos) in case you have no data on arrival.

Your next step

Next: plan your airport-to-hotel route

Tell the PVG → Hotel Planner your arrival time, luggage, and hotel area and get a route, the taxi/DiDi/metro tradeoffs, and the address reminder. Save it to your Arrival Plan.
