Shanghai to open 11 B&Bs near Disneyland
Shanghai's first licensed bed-and-breakfast hotels will open next month just 4 kilometers from Disneyland, which is about to mark its first anniversary, Jiefang Daily reported.
The 11 new B&Bs are in Lianmin, a water town that forms part of Pudong New District, and each has a different theme, such as one that will teach guests how to bake cakes.
To reach the accommodation, guests will have to park their cars and take a motorboat along a creek. Other facilities include a play area for families with children.
Shanghai released its first set of standards and safety requirements for B&Bs last year.
The number of B&Bs in the village is expected to rise to 50 during this year, according to Jiefang Daily. The city government will decide whether to increase that further based on the response from the public.
