I started editing this and realized I'd seen it all before: this was split off from Astor House Hotel (Shanghai), on which it leans for notability. That Astor article's section has, in the meantime, been pruned somewhat, and this current article, with its excessive amount of trivia sourced mostly to primary sources, is excessively redundant to that article. To put it another way, this place itself is not notable, unless it's in the history of the Astor hotel--where it warrants a mention rather than almost 40k.

- Merge. I agree with the nominator that the amount of (impressively well-referenced, by the way) detail on this page is overwhelming, but there's still some useful information to be found, which can be added to the Astor House Hotel (Shanghai)-article. —♦♦ AMBER(ЯʘCK) 20:05, 3 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
