Boutique Hotels Shanghai

I loved this place, and boutique describes it well. From the moment I set foot in the front door I felt right at home with the friendly welcome. Staff could not do enough to help, and their smiles brightened the day of this weary traveller. This extended to the crew staffing the restaurant and bar on the fourth floor where I enjoyed a few very well priced cocktails while soaking up the city views. My room was comfortable and clean and the bed was dreamy. And talk about location!!! A moments walk from gardens and walking street shopping with a charming little bar next door. The biggest problem I had was deciding what to eat for breakfast which the ample options on offer. I highly recommend

The hotel has a very stylish overall decor, brand-new facilities, and an absolute killer view. Right outside is Suzhou Creek, and Zhapu Bridge offers arguably the best spot to view the city's ”Three-Piece Set” skyscrapers. A special shout-out to the hotel service—it is exceptionally thoughtful!! We stayed in connecting rooms with our 9-month-old baby, and the hotel provided a bed guardrail and a baby bathtub, which was a massive help for traveling with a little one! Every time we called the front desk for something, the response was prompt and thorough~ The housekeeping lady even gave us extra bottled water upon learning that we needed purified water to make formula; she was just so kind~ There was a singing bowl session at the spa on Saturday, and an introduction and invitation were placed in the room to promote it. Although we didn't end up going, we tried the facial and massage, which was super relaxing and comfortable—I fell asleep for an hour straight. My skin looked noticeably brighter and glowing after the brightening facial, and still felt baby-soft the next day. The only minor regret was that at the Jia Fu Yi Hao restaurant, one signature dish was sold out for the day, and the chef who makes another signature dish was on day off. However, the other dishes we ordered (forgot the names, see photos) were also delicious, especially the braised pork intestines, which were fragrant and flavorful. I'll definitely stay here again given the chance.

The hotel facilities aren't brand new, and it doesn't have all the trendy, flashy stuff you see in influencer-style hotels, but it has everything you need. The AC and hot water work great, the bed is very comfortable, and the toiletries are all there. It's perfectly adequate for a regular stay and doesn't detract from the experience at all – truly great value for money. Honestly, when I stay at a hotel, I don't look for luxury; attentive service and cleanliness are enough. This hotel doesn't rely on gimmicks; it's all about genuine care. It's perfect whether you're traveling for leisure or business, and it's definitely a place I'd choose again next time. I wholeheartedly recommend it.

I booked this hotel to visit the Shanghai Museum early in the morning, and it's incredibly close – just a short walk over the Yan'an Middle Road overpass. The hallway has a classic old Shanghai vibe. The room isn't huge, but it has a smart toilet. My east-facing window didn't overlook the street, and I could even see the tops of Shanghai Tower and the Shanghai World Financial Center. The location is truly excellent. It's only about 200 meters to Hong Kuijia for late-night snacks, and the Line 8 Metro station is also very close.

After spending over two months in Shanghai, The Yangtze Hotel was the fifth hotel I chose during my trip. The first thing that drew me in was its location on Hankou Road – a tranquil spot amidst the hustle and bustle, much quieter than hotels directly on Nanjing West Road. Plus, it's right next to People's Square Metro Station; you can enter the station within two minutes of leaving the hotel. Extremely convenient! If you want to go shopping, just turn left out of the hotel and walk one block, and you're on Nanjing West Road. There are plenty of dining options around the hotel. The hotel's own Rose 1903 restaurant on the second floor is excellent; my mother and I thoroughly enjoyed our meal. If your dining bill exceeds 800 RMB, they even offer a complimentary professional photo session, and the pictures turned out beautifully. The rooms are also very spacious. We booked one room with a balcony and one without, and both were very satisfying. The balcony room actually had two balconies, one accessible from the bathroom and one from the main room. It was lovely to enjoy the breeze on the balcony in the early mornings and evenings. My family will be returning to Shanghai in a couple of months, and my mother has already said we'll definitely be staying at this hotel again.

The environment at Star River Bay is consistently excellent. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, and the facilities are well-maintained. The breakfast offers a wide variety of choices. A special thanks to front desk staff member Xiaoguan, who provided warm and professional service. Check-in was efficient, and she thoughtfully helped us arrange a room with a great view. Any issues we had were addressed quickly, making us feel completely at ease throughout our stay. Overall, the experience was fantastic, and I'll definitely choose this hotel again next time I'm in Shanghai! 👍

The hotel's location is absolutely fantastic, very close to The Bund and White Magnolia Plaza. The room had large floor-to-ceiling windows, was clean and spacious, and the facilities were well-maintained. The front desk staff and hotel butler provided meticulous and thoughtful service. The indoor circular pool was huge; soaking in the pool and admiring the bustling night view of Lujiazui outside the window completely washed away travel fatigue. The hotel has an observation deck on the top floor, and the complimentary travel photography was excellent. From the second-floor corridor of the hotel, you can walk along the river to The Bund, enjoying the gentle breeze and the vibrant cityscape of Shanghai. I was very satisfied with this trip!👍

The location is indeed the biggest advantage of this hotel, right next to the Lujiazui 'Three-Piece Suit' (referring to the three iconic skyscrapers), and within walking distance to the Oriental Pearl TV Tower. It was precisely because of this excellent location, coupled with the appealing room photos displayed online, that I booked a three-night stay with my child during the National Day holiday. The room rate was nearly 2,000 yuan per night, and I also added breakfast. I had expected a stay experience commensurate with the price, but the actual overall feeling was rather disappointing. The frontline staff were very polite and apologized in person for the issues encountered. They also asked me not to leave a negative review on the platform. I'm not intentionally trying to give a bad review; I just want to provide a true and objective feedback for future guests who are considering booking, so they can weigh their options. Many of the issues, in my personal opinion, stem from the hotel management, and I don't want to make things difficult for the frontline staff. Let's focus on the breakfast, which was quite a letdown. The quality of the buffet breakfast was questionable; the green vegetables were steamed until yellow, and the scallions and cilantro at the noodle station were visibly dried out, not looking freshly cut. Most of the dishes tasted poor; it's rare to encounter such unpalatable food at a five-star hotel buffet. Traveling with a child, the breakfast experience significantly detracted from our stay. On the day I discovered these issues, I contacted Trip.com to request a refund for the breakfast for the remaining two days. The room service response efficiency was very low; every time I called for room supplies, it would take over an hour for items to be delivered. Room cleaning was also not thorough enough; on one occasion, a cleaning rag was left in the room. The room hardware showed obvious signs of aging and wear; the kettle was heavily worn, the lid couldn't spring open automatically, and the button was stiff. Furthermore, food delivery couldn't reach the room, and there was no robot delivery service. All food deliveries required guests to go downstairs to pick them up. (On the day of check-out, hotel staff mentioned that if delivery to the room was needed, a waiver agreement had to be signed. The problem is, no one told me this beforehand. Shouldn't these details be communicated to guests during check-in?) Considering the National Day price of nearly two thousand yuan per night, the hardware maintenance, dining quality, and room service all fell far short of what should be expected at this price point. It's a shame, given such a good location. I hope the hotel can improve its service details!

The stay was quite good. The front desk staff, Ms. QiQi, was very warm and polite. Seeing that we had a child with us, she proactively offered to provide kids' amenities, which was a thoughtful touch that made me feel very welcome. Upon entering the room, there was no strange odor or stuffiness, and the room layout looked neat. Overall, it was a good experience.

My stay at the Atour Hotel Shanghai Bund was an absolute delight, exceeding all my expectations! First and foremost, I have to commend the front desk service. The staff were incredibly warm and attentive, making the check-in process smooth and efficient. They made me feel comfortable throughout. The room facilities were complete and well-maintained, but what truly stood out was the cleanliness. Every corner was spotless and tidy, and the bedding was so comfortable, ensuring a truly peaceful stay. The buffet breakfast on the first floor was genuinely excellent. The variety was impressive, offering both Chinese and Western options. The food was delicious, and the ingredients were fresh, catering to different tastes. I left breakfast feeling very satisfied. The location is definitely a highlight. It's incredibly convenient for getting around, and you can walk to the Bund in just a few minutes. It was perfect for an evening stroll to enjoy the stunning Bund night view, and it wasn't a long walk back to the hotel afterwards. This hotel is highly recommended for anyone visiting Shanghai. Overall, the value for money is exceptional. From the service, cleanliness, and dining to the location, I couldn't find a single fault. It was a truly comfortable and pleasant stay. I'll definitely prioritize this hotel on my next visit to Shanghai, and I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone looking to stay near the Bund!
