Shanghai hotel told not to accept foreign nationals from countries hard hit by coronavirus
On Sunday, Lily Kuo, Beijing bureau chief of the Guardian, took to Twitter to relate how she had been refused a room at the elegant Fraser Suites Shanghai hotel in Pudong.
“Was told by this hotel in Shanghai @FraserSuitesSGthat they are not accepting US citizens and 20 other nationalities, regardless of recent travel,” Kuo wrote.
“I asked the woman at front desk what she would think if US hotels had blanket banned Chinese people. She just laughed uncomfortably.”
