Best Time to Visit Shanghai

Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street

Shanghai has a subtropical monsoon climate with four clear seasons and an annual mean temperature of about 17.5°C. July is normally the hottest month, while January is the coldest. Rain falls throughout the year, with the plum rain season from mid-June to early July and possible typhoons from summer to early autumn.

Best Time for Budget Travelers

Consider January to February outside the Chinese New Year holiday, or selected rainy-season dates in June. Hotel demand may be lower than during the busiest spring and autumn periods, but cold or wet weather can affect your plans.

Why visit

Better chance of finding selected hotel deals
Smaller crowds on some weekdays
Easier restaurant reservations outside major holidays
More time for museums, shopping, and indoor attractions

Money-saving tip: Compare hotels in different parts of Shanghai. Staying near a metro station outside the Bund or Nanjing Road area may cost less while still giving you convenient transport.

Best Time for Luxury Travelers

April to May and October to November are good for premium hotels, rooftop dining, private city tours, Huangpu River cruises, and nearby water-town trips.

Best experiences

Luxury hotel with a Bund or Pudong skyline view
Private city or food tour
Fine dining in the Bund area
Premium Huangpu River cruise
Spa stay or weekend hotel package

Booking tip: Reserve rooms with a clear skyline or river view early because these room types may sell out faster during comfortable travel seasons.

Best Time for Adventure Seekers

April to May and October to early November offer better conditions for cycling, long city walks, outdoor photography, and day trips. Avoid exposed areas during thunderstorms, heavy rain, extreme heat, or typhoon warnings.

Good outdoor plans

Cycle or walk along the West Bund
Explore the former French Concession on foot
Take a day trip to Zhujiajiao Water Town
Walk through large parks and botanical gardens
Visit nearby hiking or nature areas

Safety tip: Do not stay near rivers, elevated walkways, large trees, glass buildings, or construction areas during strong wind and thunderstorms.

Best Time for Cultural Travelers

Spring and autumn are comfortable for visiting traditional neighborhoods, museums, historic buildings, gardens, and local food areas. Chinese New Year can bring festive decorations, while the National Day period in early October brings holiday events and very large crowds.

Cultural travel tips

Check museum closing days before visiting
Reserve popular attractions when booking is required
Arrive early at Yu Garden and other busy areas
Avoid major holiday dates if you want a quieter visit
Keep a rainy-day museum plan ready

Best Time for Family Travelers

April, May, October, and early November are comfortable for families because the weather is better for parks, Shanghai Disneyland, riverside areas, and walking tours.

Family travel tips

Start early and plan regular rest stops
Mix outdoor attractions with museums or malls
Stay near a metro station
Bring snacks, water, and a small umbrella
Check the minimum height rules for theme park rides
Avoid long outdoor queues during extreme heat or heavy rain

People's Square Area Shanghai|0.54km from city center

The hotel's location is excellent, right on the pedestrian street, so you can go shopping and dining as soon as you step out. I'll definitely choose to stay here again next time I'm in Shanghai. The hotel service was also great; they enthusiastically upgraded my room, and I could even see the 'Three-Piece Suit' (Lujiazui skyline) from there, which was really nice.

This hotel is really, really good! The location and service are both top-notch! I hesitated a lot because it was a bit pricier than I expected (it was National Day, so there was a premium), but it was truly the best choice I made! First, the accommodation! It was clean and the view was amazing. I arrived early for check-in and asked if they could give me a room with a good view. They found me the best view room comparable to the one I paid for 😆 Next, the location! Nanjing East Road and People's Square are right in front, which was great for tours (many meeting points are at People's Square) and shopping. Plus, many famous restaurants (hot mala ban on social media, Lu Xuxu butter cakes, crab roe and shrimp dumplings, milk tea, etc.) delivered, and a robot brought the food to my door, allowing me to try a variety of dishes. It saved so much time, it was amazing! The staff's service was also excellent. They helped with my luggage and were incredibly kind. Thank you! Oliver and Riley are the best! I'll definitely come again.

We had a fantastic stay and were made to feel welcome from the moment we arrived. The staff were exceptionally warm and attentive, always even greeting us at the door, opening doors and checking cars for belongings left behind after long shopping trips. The hotel has a beautiful, luxurious atmosphere, with excellent facilities including a very well-equipped gym and separate men’s and women’s sauna and steam rooms as well as a pool and hot tub. There is also an onsite spa opened till 2am! The ‘This Works’ bathroom toiletries in the rooms were a lovely touch and smelled wonderful. Breakfast was outstanding, with an impressive selection and freshly prepared omelettes, steamed buns and pancakes. The English-speaking staff were also incredibly helpful throughout our stay and provided great recommendations of places to see and where to eat close by. The location is excellent, within easy walking distance of Nanjing Road and the Bund. Overall, a beautifully presented hotel with genuinely excellent service — we would happily stay here again and am glad we chose to stay here as there are an overwhelming amount of choices available but we feel we made a great choice!

This hotel exudes an old-money charm. I booked a night at the Garden Hotel for a staycation, just to switch things up. It's a classic for a reason – the location is unbeatable; it's a leisurely 15-minute stroll back from the Shanghai Culture Square. Not to mention the stunning large lawn and the gorgeous Art Deco interiors. The service was excellent across the board, the pool was great for a swim, and breakfast offered the usual five-star Chinese and Western options, plus the Garden Hotel's special Japanese breakfast 😎. All in all, a very satisfying stay.

Overall, it was a very comfortable stay—an understated, reliable five-star hotel. The biggest highlight was the location; having the subway and train station right next door made getting around completely hassle-free, yet it was surprisingly peaceful without the typical hustle and bustle of a transit hub. The room was well-maintained, and the bedding had just the right firmness to instantly relieve the fatigue of travel. The service hit the sweet spot: not overly attentive, but any request was handled promptly. I also managed to check out the heated pool, which was quiet and serene; heading back to the room to rest afterward left me completely relaxed. It is a great choice whether you're traveling for sightseeing or just need a place for a short stopover. All in all, a solid five-star experience.

Jing'an District/West Nanjing Road Shanghai|0.85km from city center

You can't beat the location – right in the heart of Nanjing West Road, bustling outside, yet quiet inside. The hotel is all-suite, with the smallest room being 62 square meters, offering separate living and sleeping areas, so space is definitely generous. Each suite comes with a kitchen (induction hob, microwave, etc.) and a washer-dry dryer, which is incredibly practical for long stays or dealing with the rainy season. The hotel's design has an old Shanghai charm, but it's not overly fussy; the Art Deco details are very appealing. Rooms are comfortable, and the restaurant is pleasant. There are reliable dining options nearby, and it's convenient for business meetings. The gym is outsourced to a chain brand, so the equipment is better than typical hotel gyms; there's also a pool for a relaxing dip. The terrace offers expansive views, perfect for an evening drink. Overall, the facilities are practical and impressive. I'll definitely stay here again next time I'm in Shanghai.

I originally booked a small family room with no windows through the platform. When checking in, the front desk staff offered us a breakfast discount and a room upgrade. The breakfast for 3 people for 2 days was essentially half price, and we were upgraded to a much larger family suite with windows! The stay was excellent – it was clean, tidy, spacious, and had great natural light and ventilation. Plus, the room number they gave me happened to match my baby's nickname, which was a fun coincidence. The breakfast over the two days had different dishes each time, and it was tasty with a good variety. It felt like great value for money. From the elevator lobby in the hotel, you can see the Shanghai 'Four-Piece Set' (iconic skyscrapers), and it's very close to Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street, The Bund, and Yu Garden/Chenghuang Temple. When we checked out, they even gave us a small gift of face cream. This is definitely a hotel I'd choose again.

You can see the 'three-piece suit' of Oriental Pearl Tower, Shanghai World Financial Center, and Shanghai Tower, even if it's just a glimpse. It's truly beautiful, especially at night. The open-plan suite has a comfortable layout. 2. The desk flipping open to reveal a vanity mirror is a huge plus. 3. The ceramic jar next to the bed for charging cables is very unique. 4. The welcome snacks have a distinctive Shanghai flavor. They even gave a fridge magnet of a Shanghai landmark at checkout, but I have to complain that it doesn't stick well. I suggest changing the type; this is a minor flaw.

The Bund Area Shanghai|1.27km from city center

The Westin Bund Center is a five-star hotel with an excellent location. It's within walking distance of Yuyuan Garden Metro Station, Yuyuan Tourist Mart, the Bund waterfront promenade, and Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street. The hotel is adjacent to the Bund Center, whose lotus-shaped roof acts like a crown for the hotel, giving it a grand and recognizable exterior. The lobby atrium is a design highlight, featuring a 26-meter-high glass ceiling and a glass 'sky escalator' connecting the first to fourth floors, seamlessly integrating natural light – it's absolutely beautiful. The Lobby Lounge, located in the atrium, is surrounded by palm trees and flowing water, evoking a Southeast Asian vibe. It subtly encourages visitors to pause, enjoy the scenery, chat, and sip tea – truly a delightful way to live. While the guest rooms aren't huge, their overall layout is well-planned and facilities are comprehensive. The Heavenly Bed is truly captivating; the soft, delicate, clean, and skin-friendly bedding enhances a deeply immersive dream. Three floor-to-ceiling windows offer panoramic city views – the more you stay, the more you'll love it! The Stage restaurant offers a bountiful buffet breakfast, with both Chinese and Western options. The omelets are shaped like egg dumplings and taste great, the croissants are quite good, the tofu pudding is delicious, and the latte coffee is also pleasant. We didn't get to try the Chinese restaurant as it was hosting a wedding banquet. The hotel also has a full range of fitness equipment and an indoor heated swimming pool. It's a truly joyful experience to relax and unwind here.

However, when I arrived at the hotel a little after 6 PM, the front desk stammered, saying the room wasn't ready. They even said I should have called ahead to confirm my arrival time, to which I replied that I had already communicated it via WeChat that afternoon. It's one thing for the room not to be ready, but when I suggested leaving my luggage with the concierge to be sent up once the room was ready, the concierge said they needed a request from the front desk first. I was truly baffled; the communication was so cumbersome. They pushed the problem onto the customer instead of ensuring internal colleagues had aligned information and processes. Finally, the room was ready after 7 PM, but my luggage still wasn't there. I had to go back to WeChat and ask the guest relations staff to chase it again before the concierge finally delivered it.

The hotel's location is excellent, making me feel very safe as a solo traveler. A huge thanks to High Manager from the front desk. I was still jet-lagged and a bit disoriented when I arrived, and he very thoughtfully noticed I wasn't feeling well. After helping me check in, he even enthusiastically took my suitcase into the elevator for me. Thank you so much 🙏 I ended up extending my stay for a few more days. Besides the large shopping malls around the hotel, I also discovered many charming small shops behind it that were lovely to browse through~ Next time I'm in Shanghai, I'm definitely staying at the Yan'an Hotel again. I truly felt right at home! 👍👍👍 Highly recommend it ❤️

BUT, being a good location is also a painful location to move around due to heavy traffic. The room amenities is interesting…. A MISSING FRIDGE!! It took them one day to find a replacement. Plus some bad finishes. Very UNCITADINE standards My friend in the larger rooms are much better. So i suggest to book the bigger rooms at minimal additional cost For the price n staff l, its all well worth it

I booked a traditional hotel in Lujiazui, Pudong Shangri-La, Shanghai. The lobby was grand, the room was well-maintained, and the facilities were complete. Breakfast was delicious, and the lounge on the 21st floor of the old building offered unparalleled views. Rylie, Joy, and Anna from the Horizon Club, as well as Autumn, the lobby manager, were all very friendly. They took care of my child, addressed our room needs, and even added a bed rail. It was a perfect family trip.

Overall, my stay was very satisfying. The lobby is impressive, and the facilities are well-maintained. The breakfast selection was rich and delicious, making for a great dining experience. The recreational facilities were a big plus; the indoor pool with hot spring baths was perfect for unwinding after a swim, greatly alleviating fatigue. The room offered excellent views and a high level of comfort. The only minor drawback was the approximately 10-minute walk to the subway station, which can be a bit inconvenient when traveling with luggage via public transport. However, this isn't an issue if you're driving, as there's ample parking. All in all, it's suitable for both business and leisure travelers.

The location is superb, right in the IFC complex, with rooms starting from the 45th floor. The river-view rooms offer direct views of the Oriental Pearl Tower and the Lujiazui 'three-piece set,' making the night view absolutely stunning. The Ritz service is consistently attentive and reliable. Breakfast is a semi-buffet with à la carte options, and the quality is excellent. The FLAIR rooftop bar on the 58th floor has a fantastic ambiance. While the hotel opened a while ago, so the facilities show some age, the bathtub in the room is quite close to an office building, offering limited privacy when bathing. However, direct access downstairs to the IFC mall makes getting around and shopping extremely convenient. This is definitely the top choice if you want to experience the Lujiazui night view.

I've had the Le Méridien Sheshan on my radar for a while, and this National Day holiday I finally got to experience this classic, top-notch family-friendly hotel. Even though the hotel is quite old, its location is exceptional, nestled at the foot of Sheshan mountain. Every room has a balcony with great views and fresh air; sitting out there is simply refreshing. The room interiors are also very well maintained. Outside the room, there's everything you could need, no need to go to any paid parks. You can just relax at the hotel; the kids will never get bored, and adults can enjoy a truly relaxing vacation. During the National Day holiday, there were quite a few weddings being held, and parking was free. Plus, it's very convenient for driving to all the major attractions in Songjiang. A special shout-out to Bob for the excellent service – proactive, smooth communication, and thoughtful. The kids have already said they want to bring their grandparents back for another stay next time.

This hotel stay completely redefined my expectations for luxury accommodations and became an unforgettable memory. As a landmark hotel, its view is absolutely unparalleled – opening the floor-to-ceiling window in the room, the ribbon-like panorama stretches before your eyes, with the spires of international architecture juxtaposed with traditional Chinese elements. By day, it's the vibrant energy of a bustling city; by night, it's the glittering spectacle of a million lights. Even just sitting by the window is a pure delight. The meticulous service truly touched my heart at every turn. Upon arrival, the doorman swiftly took my luggage, and I didn't have to lift a finger the entire time. Check-in at the front desk took only 3 minutes, and I was offered iced lemonade and a customized gift with the hotel's logo – this thoughtful gesture far exceeded my expectations. The room design strikes a perfect balance between quality and practicality. The light gray soft furnishings paired with walnut wood furniture exude understated luxury. The high-thread-count cotton bedding is incredibly soft, allowing you to relax the moment you lie down. The bathroom features a dry/wet separation, and the toiletries have a subtle woody scent. Even the shower water temperature can be precisely controlled – every detail is impeccable. The breakfast restaurant was another pleasant surprise; the freshly ordered Shanghai xiao long bao were bursting with delicious soup, paired with a freshly ground latte, all while overlooking the city in the morning light, starting the day feeling completely refreshed. Upon check-out, the concierge proactively arranged for my vehicle registration in advance, saving me 120 RMB in parking fees. Such an experience is excellent for both business and leisure travelers. Special thanks to front desk managers Teemo and Lynn, and intern Fanny. Their service was incredibly polite and attentive. A true credit to Shanghai's tourism industry!

Hongqiao District Shanghai|11.03km from city center

Staying at The Anandi Hotel in Shanghai | A Healing Hotel Experience Before heading back to Beijing, I chose this healing hotel for a few days of rest in Shanghai. Here's my experience: Facilities and Activities 🏊🏻♂️: 1. Guests can use the hot spring, which wasn't crowded and wasn't very large. There are two public pools, one in the hot spring area and another on the 11th floor of the hotel. The gym is also small. There are free healing activities every day, with more options on weekends, including children's craft experiences 👍🏻. 2. The kids' club is on the second floor of the hot spring area, but children cannot be left unattended; parents must supervise them. I suggest they change this – if parents are constantly watching their kids, how can they have time to spend money? 😓 Environment 🌲: As a healing hotel, you essentially stay within the hotel. There isn't much to do in the surrounding area 😂. Dining 🍜: The breakfast at the Mystic restaurant is quite healthy. The executive lounge offers afternoon tea and light dinner. Yue Restaurant and Yuan Yan are actually the same restaurant. Dining taste ranking ➡️ Yuan Yan > Mystic restaurant > Executive Lounge. Service: Most of the staff provide excellent service. On weekends, due to more guests, the service quality can slightly dip 😝. In summary, the service at this hotel is very good, but the overall facilities are not large. If you're looking for a two or three-day healing stay, I highly recommend it 😜 (Special shout-out to Darcy for the excellent service!).

Shanghai Hyakumangoku Onsen Hotel

Shanghai Disney Resort Shanghai|21.83km from city center

This was my first time staying at the Million Stone Garden Hotel, and I was thoroughly impressed. The surroundings are elegant and peaceful, surprisingly not crowded even during the National Day holiday. First, about the onsen: it opens at 2:00 PM. Right after checking in, we rushed over around 3:00 PM and were amazed to find no one else there! It felt like a private hot spring just for our family, which was fantastic—the only rule is no phones allowed for photos. There are two pools indoors and two outdoors, kept at 37.5°C. It was pleasantly warm in this weather, and the outdoor pools weren't chilly at all. Perhaps everyone was off at Disney, but having the place to ourselves made it so relaxing. Getting here is also super convenient—no need to drive. We took the metro, and right outside the station is the International Tourism and Resorts Zone Bus Line 1. It’s just a 3-stop ride straight to the hotel gate, and only a short walk from there. After checking in at the lobby, they even shuttle you to your room in a golf cart. Outstanding service! Directly across from the hotel is the Bicester Village Shanghai. It was quite crowded there with queues outside many shops, so we just browsed briefly. Almost all the restaurants had lines too. If you’re just going over for a meal rather than shopping, it’s only about a 200-meter walk straight across the street from the hotel gate—incredibly handy. There's also a lakeside ferry that takes you directly to Disneytown for 15 RMB per person, which is another great perk. Overall, a great experience. If you prefer to just stay within the hotel, the gym is almost empty, and you can take a morning stroll around the grounds where there are a few swings. It’s all very tranquil. Disney Shuttle Service: Advance reservation required. Hot Spring Tickets for Two (Cold & Hot Springs): Included with certain room types.

Parking at the hotel is very convenient, with plenty of spaces available. If you're driving, you basically don't have to worry about parking. The hotel staff provided excellent and patient service. They were always quick to help with any issues and spoke very kindly. Even though it was just a one-night stay, the overall experience was great.

The breakfast in the morning is very good, it is self-service, and there are freshly made noodles to eat. If you are thirsty, you can go downstairs at any time to have some drinks and fruits, which are all included in the hotel package. Why the deduction? Like many reviews wrote, the water in the pool here is really too hot. It is the hottest of all the hot springs in Shanghai that I have been to. It feels too hot. I saw that several children could hardly soak in the water for a while. I don’t know why so many people complained. I saw that the management was still saying in the comments that it met the hot spring temperature requirements. What they said is that your water is too hot, and they are giving you suggestions. Everyone in the hot spring said that the water was hot, not that you violated any regulations... It takes talent to reply like this

Especially as night falls and the city lights up, enjoying this breathtaking night view from the comfort of your room or private terrace creates an incredibly immersive atmosphere. In terms of hardware, the suite perfectly blends understated luxury with retro charm. The spacious room design cleverly incorporates Art Deco style with old Shanghai aesthetics. A separate walk-in closet, a marble double bathtub, underfloor heating, and a highly tech-savvy bedside control panel all demonstrate an extreme pursuit of detail. Despite being open for over a decade, the hotel meticulously maintains its facilities, and the quality remains impeccable. Furthermore, the dining options within the hotel are not to be missed. Whether it's the exquisite cuisine at the Michelin-starred restaurants or the highly ceremonial English afternoon tea in the lobby, both offer an ultimate culinary delight. A stay in a river-view suite at The Peninsula Shanghai promises an unforgettable journey through luxury. Special thanks to the helpful young lady with glasses at the front desk (I was in a hurry to check in and forgot to ask her name) who kindly upgraded my reserved garden-view suite to a river-view suite for free. I also have a small suggestion: for example, the portion size of the waffles for breakfast is three times that of The Peninsula Beijing. It would be great if guests could be recommended à la carte options, as a smaller, more refined breakfast would reduce waste.

Upon entering the room on the day of check-in, my little one opened the TV cabinet and found it was broken. I immediately contacted the front desk, and they said they would send a technician to fix it. I requested a room change directly. The front desk then said they would send someone to check. Just then, the bellhop came into the room with our luggage, and I informed him of the situation. When I opened the TV cabinet to show him, the entire cabinet door fell directly onto my leg. My knee and leg instantly became excruciatingly painful, bruising, swelling, and peeling immediately. The bellhop was also very caring and comforted me, taking photos to report the situation to his superiors and asking if I needed to go to the hospital. Although it hurt a lot, it was inconvenient with two children, so I endured it. In the end, they helped me switch to a larger room, and I was quite satisfied with the resolution. I also found stains on the bath towels in the new room, and they promptly replaced them for me. The hygiene and facilities definitely need improvement. Dinner at the hotel's restaurant was very satisfying. The kids loved it. The dishes were clean and had unique flavors. Everything was great, except for the walnuts in the yogurt which were a bit bitter. The service was also excellent. The hotel even helped me dry my children's clothes, which was a really nice touch. Breakfast was pretty good and served in the same restaurant as dinner. Some of the dishes from dinner were also available for breakfast. In the afternoon, my little one was napping, and the hotel even allowed me a late check-out, letting my child rest a bit longer. During check-out, the front desk asked about my injury and gave me two small gifts. Though small, the gifts showed great thoughtfulness, making it a very heartwarming hotel.

The cleaning staff were also very polite. I had stayed here with my family before the pandemic, and this visit felt just as welcoming. I'll definitely come back when I have the chance. Highly recommended!

Arrived past midnight, but the front desk was very considerate and arranged a higher floor for a late checkout until the afternoon, which was originally scheduled for noon. The breakfast menu offers a great variety, mainly English style! Personally, I don't like hotels with an overly old-money, antiquated style. This hotel is more modern and minimalist.

The room facilities were consistently well-equipped, and the breakfast spread was a huge highlight with so many choices. The location of W in North Bund and the views are, of course, unparalleled. I will definitely be back!

Bellagio by MGM Shanghai on the Bund

The Bund Area Shanghai|2.07km from city center

The rooms here are luxurious and comfortable, truly a top-tier luxury hotel in China. I'd give this hotel 120 points – 100 for the hotel itself, and the extra 20 for two outstanding individuals. First, May Bao at the front desk. I checked in late, and she was incredibly attentive, even upgrading my room type. Second, Pacino Huang, the male manager at the restaurant. His service was absolutely exceptional, even more professional than the Park Hyatt in Osaka where I've stayed. He helped arrange my dinner at the restaurant, personally brought over the dessert for breakfast, showed genuine care for my child's preferences, and even shared health and wellness tips. It was truly moving and incredibly professional. The hotel's location is superb, within walking distance to The Bund, and the terrace offers direct views of Shanghai's beautiful skyline. My stay was incredibly comfortable. I highly recommend this hotel, their service is simply phenomenal!

Radisson Blu Forest Manor Shanghai Hongqiao

9.2/10Very Good2902 Reviews

Hongqiao Airport/National Exhibition and Convention Center Shanghai|17.82km from city center

A Beautiful, Comfortable Stay with Limited Poolside Service Check-in at the Radisson Blu Forest Manor was easy, although the deposits were surprisingly high. Trip.com required a 600 RMB deposit when we booked, and the hotel required an additional 2,000 RMB room deposit at check-in. Altogether, the 2,600 RMB in deposits nearly equalled the cost of our stay, so guests should be prepared for this. Our room was absolutely gorgeous and immaculately clean. It was equipped with everything we could have wanted, including a lighted magnifying mirror, a large bathtub, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, a hairdryer, an iron, a refrigerator, a television, a work desk, robes and a safe. The swimming pool was lovely, and we enjoyed spending time on the lounge chairs each day. However, the pool area did not offer the level of service we expected from a hotel of this standard. Guests had to collect their own towels and find their own lounge chairs, and there was nobody assisting parties with seating or taking drink orders. I had to go upstairs to the bar, ask whether I could bring drinks to the pool and then carry them downstairs myself. There appeared to be a poolside snack bar just inside the pool area, but it was always closed, unattended and dark, even though hot dogs were sitting on the rollers and pastries were displayed in the window. There were plenty of lifeguards and attendants around the pool, so having one or two staff members assist with towels, seating, drinks or snacks would have made the experience exactly what we were hoping for. The cocktails from the bar were excellent, and I highly recommend the espresso martini. My husband and I also attended a morning aerobics class taught by Rabbit. The class was well attended, enjoyable and a genuinely good workout. Unfortunately, these classes were not offered every morning, so we could not participate as often as we would have liked. We did not try the hotel restaurants or room service because we chose to go out for dinner each evening. We also looked into the spa treatments but found them significantly more expensive than other spas in the Shanghai area. Instead, we went to Panlong Tiandi nearby and enjoyed spa treatments there for a much lower price. One detail worth noting is that Trip.com advertised a “free gift” with the booking, but the gift was access to the hotel’s fitness classes. These classes were already available free of charge to all hotel guests, so this did not feel like a separate booking benefit. Overall, the room was luxurious, spotless and extremely comfortable, and my husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The hotel has excellent facilities and wonderful cocktails, but more attentive poolside service would significantly improve the guest experience.

Mandarin Oriental Pudong Shanghai

9.5/10Outstanding3808 Reviews

Lujiazui Area Shanghai|3.51km from city center

This National Day, for our first destination, we chose 'home' – the hotel. The room I wanted was fully booked on Ctrip, but luckily I still had Zoe's WeChat, and she helped me upgrade my room (I stayed in 2301 when I was pregnant). I'm very happy and grateful! The hotel service is generally top-notch, though their staff turnover is quite high. Every year I come, I notice a few new faces. Even the culinary team has changed (don't ask me how I know, it's just that I ordered room service again, specifically the laksa I always get, and it was incredibly salty, not like the taste I remember from previous visits). Perhaps the hotel misses me and wants me to help them keep an eye on things, as there's always a little hiccup during my stays. The hotel is indeed making adjustments and changes. Regarding hygiene and room facilities, as shown in the pictures: the table leg in the living room was wobbly and propped up with paper (it's been years, why hasn't the hotel replaced it?). This time, they prepared toothbrushes and cups for the children, which is a good gesture, but unfortunately, they were dirty. (A quick note: the hotel is trying to be more environmentally friendly by putting kids' toiletries in small bags, which I think is a good idea). Also, the drinking glasses near the water dispenser weren't clean, and the complimentary fruit hadn't been washed. The funniest thing is, I was on the 23rd floor, and you won't believe it, but I swatted two small moths! This time, I thoroughly enjoyed the swimming pool several times and noticed a few issues, perhaps due to its age. The door locks are stiff and rusty. When there's a large crowd, things aren't restocked promptly. The swimming pool restrooms aren't cleaned regularly, so water stains accumulate, making it easy to slip. Breakfast: During holidays, there's a long queue on the 1st floor, and the food remains unchanged (disorganized and mediocre). I've already reviewed the 1st-floor dinner buffet below the hotel's main review section – you can check it out or experience it yourself. The executive lounge breakfast introduced new sour string bean noodles and Vietnamese pho, which were quite tasty. Just be careful with the beef meatballs, as they have bones, especially if you're giving them to children. The bread and fried dough sticks were hard and dry, possibly due to the lighting or air exposure. There's a flaw in the cleaning process for my room type, which I discovered when I unexpectedly returned to retrieve something. There were two staff members cleaning, both in the left bathroom, with the door open. If someone were to enter and go to the right side to get something, they wouldn't know. I think this needs attention. Fortunately, I kept my important belongings on the left side. Overall, I'm most satisfied with the service and grateful for the upgrade. However, these minor details, from a familiar perspective, can only be brushed off with a smile. From a consumer's perspective, though, it might be a different story.

Bvlgari Hotel Shanghai

9.6/10Excellent1469 Reviews

The North Bund Area Shanghai|1.58km from city center

Shanghai Bvlgari: A True Old Money Vibe Experience ✨ Honestly, for me, a stay at the Bvlgari is an immersive experience of genuine old money living. Many people complain about its shortcomings, like being a bit far from the main attractions, and the hotel having been open for years, showing some obvious signs of age in its facilities. These issues are indeed present; you can see slight scratches on the floors, and some furniture joints show a bit of wear. It definitely doesn't have the pristine, polished feel of a brand-new, trendy hotel. But I have to say, its old money ambiance is truly top-tier and absolutely irreplaceable. The most direct feeling comes during breakfast. Sitting in the restaurant listening to the conversations around me, the atmosphere is completely different—gentle, relaxed, understated, and composed. There’s no flashy, showy wealth. This is the quintessential old money relaxed vibe; that aura simply cannot be faked. Putting aside the minor imperfections in the facilities, the comfort level of the stay is off the charts! I absolutely rave about the Bvlgari's bedding; it's the most stable and comfortable sleep I’ve had in any hotel! And their bath towels, I truly can't stop thinking about them! Soft and plush, with a faint, high-end fragrance that feels like a specially crafted scent. After a shower, wrapping myself in it makes me feel soft and fragrant all over—pure bliss! The service is consistently top-notch, a true delight for those who appreciate details! During the day, housekeeping proactively brings fresh fruit platters and warm, freshly baked pastries. In the evening, there's a soothing herbal tea, which really elevates the detailed ambiance. All soft drinks in the room are complimentary, and the cleaning staff tidies the room regularly, refilling drinks and amenities promptly, so you don't have to worry about a thing. The professionalism of all hotel staff is exceptional. Whether it's the bellhop or the cleaning crew, they greet you gently when you meet. The service is professional and discreet—not overly enthusiastic to the point of awkwardness, nor cold or perfunctory. The room's quality is also absolutely on point! The overall decor is luxurious yet understated, with fresh flowers and greenery adorning every corner, making it fresh and elegant. The room is incredibly spacious, and the view from the window is stunning. I absolutely love curling up on the sofa in the room, daydreaming and unwinding. When I feel like it, I'll leisurely head out for a stroll on Nanjing Road. It’s so relaxed and pleasant, truly a full-on vacation vibe. Objectively speaking, purely in terms of hardware facilities, it indeed can't compare to many newly opened high-end hotels. But that's the charm of the Bvlgari; it possesses an inherent European royal palace heritage and aura. New hotels can mimic decor and pile on hardware, but this kind of accumulated sophistication and composed old money atmosphere can never be replicated. My biggest takeaway after staying: Palace-level elegance is never defined by brand-new facilities.

We ordered a set menu for four, and the freshly roasted duck, prepared three ways, was one of the most delicious we've ever tasted. Every dish was a culinary delight. We've traveled to several countries, and this dinner at Jinjiang was definitely the most delicious we've had. We'll certainly stay here again next time we're back in China/Shanghai. In fact, some friends are already booking a stay at Jinjiang next week based on my recommendation. The facilities are comprehensive, though perhaps not super new, which is understandable given the hotel is over thirty years old. The service was absolutely fantastic. I really love this hotel.

Citadines Gubei Apartment Hotel

9.7/10Excellent1948 Reviews

Hongqiao District Shanghai|8.21km from city center

A true hidden gem in this modern high-rise. The hotel is in the same building as the Novotel – specifically, Citadines occupies floors 15 to 18. The check-in experience is an absolute 10/10: the team is incredibly welcoming, offering coffee, tea, and small pastries, plus there's a very pleasant coworking space. The rooms feel like compact studios with a kitchenette: microwave, washing machine, dryer, a full-sized fridge, and lots of storage. The bed and pillows are supremely cozy, and the shower… just wow! The water pressure is outstanding – truly a delight. The door goes from floor to ceiling, so steam from long, hot showers stays inside the bathroom. The sink area is a little tight, but perfectly fine for one or two people. Special shout-out: the magnifying mirror and the Japanese toilet – a real touch of luxury that I thoroughly enjoyed. This time was just a long weekend, and we had a fantastic, relaxing stay. The only small drawback: the metro is about 1 km away, maybe slightly farther. But the value for money is so excellent that what you save on the hotel more than covers a taxi ride. In fact, I had a 6:00 am train from Hongqiao and pre-ordered a Didi – it took just 15 minutes door to door, which was incredibly convenient for me. Considering how reasonable the price at Citadines already is, the Didi cost felt like nothing. That sealed the deal for me. This is my third time staying here, and it remains my go-to place in Shanghai. Highly recommended – I'll be back again soon.

The Novotel and Pullman in Qingpu are conveniently connected, offering different levels of service. Pullman's 'Yue Cafe' breakfast restaurant is grand and offers a wide variety of food, including authentic old Shanghai-style tofu pudding and red soup noodles. What's even more impressive is the meticulous service from the restaurant supervisor, Mia, who treats guests like family. This was a follow-up visit after my previous stay at Pullman, and both hotels maintain the same style and standard of service. They are definitely worth looking forward to. For those on a budget of 300-400, Novotel is a good choice, while Pullman is perfect for a 500-600 budget. These are the best hotels and restaurants in Qingpu. You won't regret coming here.

This is the first time I've encountered such a ridiculous situation anywhere in the country! All the facilities were in poor condition, and the hygiene was particularly uncomfortable. There was dust everywhere, as if it had accumulated over several years, and the shower room was full of tiny flies and had a foul smell! I checked in at 10 PM and left at 6:30 AM! For this price, I felt it was completely not worth it! Extremely disappointed! The staff had no service awareness whatsoever; it felt like staying in an old-fashioned guesthouse.
