Top Downtown Shanghai Hotel Reviews

The Westin Bund Center, Shanghai

10/10 Excellent

"Clean, new. Everything was wonderful. Even when checking in at a busy front desk, the staff brought us to another floor to check us in. "

Renaissance Shanghai Yu Garden Hotel on the Bund by Nanjing Road

8/10 Good

"HI We stayed 4 nights. Hotel area is under heavy construction for a while. It's quite at night. Also if you are using Didi or taxi the car has to use side entrance which can be pain for the driver to find. The Hotel is 8 min short walk to Yu Yuan Garden and just across line 10 metro too. Both a plus."

Mandarin Oriental Pudong, Shanghai

10/10 Excellent

"Mandarin Oriental hotels always set a high standard and this Shanghai property was excellent. Staff were amazing and so polite and helpful. I stayed in a club room and this was spacious and well appointed. Only one draw back was the lack of English TV channels. The complementary toiletries were a bit disappointing. I used the fitness suite and this was excellent- nice spa area as well. Food was generally good especially the breakfast."
