MGM Shanghai West Bund brings true entertainment and hospitality to Shanghai's West Bund, situated at the heart of one of Shanghai's most dynamic hospitality hubs. It offers diverse, artistic, and lively experiences that exceed all expectations in a stunning location on the Huangpu riverfront. The hotel is surrounded by over 20 cultural and art institutions, with the Expo site and Qiantan area just across the Huangpu River. Additionally, guests have convenient access to Xujiahui, Longhua Temple, Shanghai Botanical Garden, and a variety of commercial and entertainment options. For business travellers, the headquarters of BMW, Alibaba, Tencent, NetEase, McDonald's, and other prominent enterprises are all within walking distance.
"We were in town for a concert with my child, and the hotel staff proactively called us beforehand to confirm our check-in details. We arrived at the hotel around 11 PM, and the front desk staff were incredibly quick with the check-in process, which was a huge relief after a long day of travel!
Moving on to the room, we had a river view room this time. It was quite spacious and impeccably clean. For example, the electric kettle was spotless, inside and out – no water stains whatsoever. This really matters to someone like me who's a bit particular about cleanliness. The bedding was very comfortable, and the mattress was perfect, offering just the right amount of support without being too soft.
Finally, I have to give a special shout-out to the breakfast. I honestly didn't have high expectations, but the breakfast at MGM Shanghai truly blew me away! Unlike the standard, often unremarkable breakfasts at many star hotels, the selection here was incredibly rich and diverse. They had a live noodle station (the scallion oil noodles are a must-try!), freshly prepared seafood congee, and preserved egg and lean pork congee – all tasting absolutely delicious. Especially when compared to another five-star hotel we stayed at the very next day, even my daughter couldn't help but exclaim, 'I really miss MGM's breakfast!'"
