Top Ten Ritziest Hotels in Shanghai
Posted on March 20th, 2010 19 comments
For the past decade, Shanghai’s upscale hotels have mostly targeted corporate travelers, but leisure visitors now enjoy a broader array of large luxury and small boutique options. The upcoming Shanghai World Expo is expected to bring in an estimated 70 million visitors and ambitious plans for long-term tourism growth are bringing names like Park Hyatt, Conrad, Jumeirah, Peninsula, Mandarin Oriental, W, Banyan Tree, and Fairmont through 2010, while a small portfolio of design-led hotels is slated to grow and flourish. Location remains the key to which one you choose. Hotels in the French Concession and near the Bund offer the most convenience for tourists. Despite the lofty views, staying east of the river in one of the Pudong’s high-rise hotels can mean taxi rides and inconvenience.

Le Royal Méridien Shanghai
The gorgeous view of Shanghai skyline is only the start of the royal treatment at Le Royal Méridien, the tallest hotel in Puxi, West of Shanghai
With considerable panache, Le Royal Méridien executes its Art Deco–inspired design throughout its 770 rooms, high above People’s Park on central Nanjing Road. Above the eleventh-floor lobby, black lacquer–framed mirrors line hallways, and airy guest rooms have floor-to-ceiling windows. Chic marble bathrooms, plush velvet couches and club chairs, and beds with down duvets and oversized square pillows round out the stylish accommodations. Ai Mei, the Chinese restaurant already known for its dim sum, is entered through a door frame of glass tanks filled with goldfish; the menu at Allure—roasted lobster with risotto, beef tenderloin with goose liver—is worth the culinary detour. Even the spa here caters to a late-night clientele, staying open until 11 p.m., for those who can’t sleep without a signature egg-white, vodka, and cucumber facial.

JIA Shanghai
Best Boutique Hotel: JIA Shanghai serves as your stylish home away from home.
Housed in a renovated 1920s townhouse on hip Nanjing Road, this is wunderkind Singaporean hotelier and restaurateur Yenn Wong’s follow-up to the original Jia in Hong Kong, designed by Philippe Starck. The 55 rooms combine luxe comforts—think plush beds, blackout curtains, plasma TVs, iPod docks, and ceiling-mounted Bose speakers—with trendsetting boutique styling, including artwork by photographer Russel Wong, outsize tubs in gold Bisazza-tile bathrooms, and furnishings by Minotti, Moroso, and Hans Wegner. Each room has a small kitchenette with a microwave oven, cookware, and serving dishes. The two stunning penthouse suites have extra theatrical flourishes, including contemporary art, a sunken circular Jacuzzi, and a shower that converts into a steam room. The chic lobby lounge, where you’ll be served complimentary continental breakfast and afternoon tea, is dressed with giant Chinese bird cages and lacquer tableware. Shanghai’s shaker-makers reserve dinner tables at Issimo, a modern Italian eatery created by Japan-based restaurateur Salvatore Cuomo. This is the place to stay for sophisticated small hotel chic.

Serene little URBN is China's first carbon-neutral hotel, implementing eco-friendly elements such as solar shades and water-based A/C, and allowing patrons to buy carbon credits.
Tucked away on a side street north of Jing’An Temple, this 26-room design hotel is built around an enclosed slate and bamboo courtyard with calming water fountains. Constructed using reclaimed local materials —such as gray factory bricks, mahogany, and slate—Urbn wears its eco-conscious credentials on its sleeve; the hotel also tracks its ecological footprint and matches it in carbon credits. The rooms, in five categories, are all relatively small but make good use of space with low-level beds and a sunken “lounge” area, complete with hemp cushions on the broad benches and a wall-hung flat-screen TV. Neat in-room design touches include mahogany floors and wall paneling, desk chairs made from compressed cardboard, and under-floor bathroom heating, plus free Wi-Fi and iPod docks. Contemporary Australian-Asian cuisine is served in the ground-floor restaurant, Roomtwentyeight.
This modestly luxe, environmentally-friendly suite was built with recycled materials drawn from dilapidated French Concession villas.

Park Hyatt Shanghai
Park Hyatt Shanghai, world's most vertiginous hotel, is on floors 79 through 93 of the Shanghai World Financial Center, in the Pudong district.
Shanghai hotels are rising ever higher—and top of the pile is this deluxe cloud buster on the 79th through 93rd floors of the 101-story, 1,615-foot Shanghai World Financial Center in Pudong. The Park Hyatt Shanghai can now claim the twin titles of world’s highest hotel and world’s highest restaurant. New York City–based Tony Chi created the interiors to resemble a sophisticated modern Chinese residence, hence the series of gates, halls, and chambers. The lobby itself is on the 87th floor and the spa and fitness center have prime city views from the 85th level. The 174 rooms are an impressive size (an average room is 645 square feet), plus there is 24-hour butler service, a technology concierge, and a walk-in dressing room and flat-screen TV in the bathroom and bedroom. The hotel’s highest highlight is 100 Century Avenue, an integrated three-level fine-dining restaurant (serving Western, Chinese, and Japanese cuisine) and lounge bar on the 91st to 93rd floors.

The Portman Ritz-Carlton
Despite some heavy competition, this is still a favorite for many business travelers and world leaders (George W. Bush stayed here during the APEC Conference in 2001).
The Portman Ritz-Carlton was the city’s first luxury hotel when it opened in 1998, on the major shopping thoroughfare Nanjing Lu. The hotel completed a multimillion-dollar, top-to-bottom face-lift of the guest rooms, bars, restaurants, and facilities in 2008. The circular pale-marble lobby gives way to 610 rooms—request one of the newly renovated ones, which feature gleaming dark-wood traditional furniture, accents of gold and brown, and sliding doors that lend an Oriental air. Guests are spoiled for choice when it comes to dining: There are four house restaurants to choose from, including Palladio, which serves modern Italian dishes in a formal setting. Luxury-brand lovers will delight in the neighboring upscale Plaza 66 mall. Though the hotel is centrally located at the Shanghai Center, surrounding office buildings mean that finding a cab during rush hour can be difficult—hotel guests do get preference in the taxi line, but the queue lengthens noticeably during peak times, from 4 pm until 8 pm.

St. Regis Shanghai
In the lobby of St. Regis Shanghai, an elaborate alabaster light fixture echoes the tobacco-leaf pattern of the inlaid marble.
Every guest is a VIP at the St. Regis. The amphitheaterlike lobby sets the stage for the most indulgent hotel experience in Shanghai. The 318 rooms in this 40-story red-granite tower—its design lauded by Architectural Digest—spare no expense, with Bose wave radios, Herman Miller Aeron chairs, and rain-forest showers that give you the feeling of being under a waterfall. At 500 square feet (152 sq. m), standard rooms compare to other hotels’ suites. The two women’s-only floors are unique in Shanghai. Butlers address all your needs 24/7 (you can even contact them by e-mail) from in-room check-in to room service, and as part of a new program, they can arrange to escort guests personally to visit local artist studios. The hotel’s location—15 minutes from the riverfront—is a drawback, but the fitness center and 24-hour gym, along with the remarkable Danieli’s Italian restaurant add to this pampering property’s appeal.

The Peninsula Shanghai
The 14-story luxury Peninsula Shanghai hotel, with 235 rooms and suites, is the first new structure on the storied riverfront Bund since the Bank of China in 1927.
The Peninsula Shanghai, an Art-Deco inspired hotel on Shanghai’s historic Bund, is dressed to impress, from its stepped, faux Deco facade to the grand pillared lobby decorated in cool celadon tones (a string quartet plays on a theatrical balcony in the afternoons) to the restored 1934 Rolls-Royce Phantom II for airport transfers. This is a hotel that makes the most of its outlook over the future-scape Pudong skyline, the Peninsula Spa by Espa features a skylit indoor swimming pool and a layered crème marble terrace, while the terrace of the 14th-floor Sir Elly’s Restaurant has panoramic river views. The pick of the hotel’s five restaurants is Yi Long Court, serving classic Cantonese cuisine in a luxurious chocolate and dark-blue Shanghai Deco dining room with Qing dynasty furnishings. The hotel’s 235 guest rooms, styled in a pale gray-green or cerulean blue, start at a spacious 600 square feet and go up to the 4,300-square-foot Presidential Suite. All have 1920s Shanghai mahogany and ebony furniture. The in-room technology is best in class, with thoughtful additions such as a Nespresso machine positioned at shoulder level, a desktop iPod dock, a 1,000-channel Internet radio, and an in-bath phone system that filters out the sound of the water. Another flick of a switch dims the bathroom lights and turns on relaxing spa music.
The Peninsula Shanghai features 235 generously large guestrooms (44 of which are suites). Ipod docks, free wireles

Pudong Shangri-La
The Shangri-La Pudong occupies one of the most prized locations in Shanghai: overlooking the Huangpu River, opposite the Bund, near the Pearl Tower in Lujiazui.
With its new 36-floor glass tower, the Shangri-La is set to give its Pudong competitors a run for their money. It may not tower as high as the Grand Hyatt, but this hotel’s gorgeous views stretch across the Huangpu River to the stately Bund and rival those of its taller (and sometimes more fogged-in) neighbor. All of the 950 modern rooms are unfussy, accented with Asian touches such as raw silk throws and pillows. Rooms also have broadband Internet, and satellite TV—just be sure to request accommodation that overlooks the water. Not one but two indoor pools and full-service gymnasiums satisfy the sporty, while those hoping to unwind can enjoy a massage in the Oriental opulence of the Chi spa. Eleven restaurants offer options to suit every taste, but there is no better place for a drink and nibble than Jade on 36, an eclectic fusion restaurant perched on the 36th floor. Though the Pudong location means that during rush hour (4 p.m.-9 p.m.) it can take 45 minutes to get downtown by car, taxis are cheap and plentiful, and those in a hurry can hop on the metro, which is only a five-minute walk from the hotel.
The Pudong Shangri-La boasts a slew of trendy designer restaurants including the luxurious Nadaman Restaurant and Sushi Bar, designed by Super Potato

The Grand Hyatt Shanghai
From its perch on the upper floors of the Jin Mao Tower, the Grand Hyatt Shanghai With Art Deco furnishings and floor-to-ceiling windows has splendid views of the Bund and Pudong
The Grand Hyatt Shanghai takes up the top 34 floors of the monolithic 88-story Jin Mao Tower—the fifth-tallest building in the world—so you can imagine the views: vertigo-inducing panoramas over the city’s skyscrapers and streets, abetted by the ubiquitous floor-to-ceiling windows. (Request a west-facing room for views of the Bund, the Oriental Pearl Tower, and the rest of the Shanghai skyline’s kitschy excess.) If you can tear your gaze from the neon spectacle outside, you’ll find the hotel’s interiors are pretty sumptuous: All 555 rooms have contemporary furniture (lots of glass, lacquered wood, and velvety neutral-toned upholstery) accented by traditional Eastern artwork. The marble baths have multiple-head “shower towers” that engulf you in water and mist; if these aren’t enough of a full-body experience, you can head to the steam baths and hot tubs at the on-site spa. The hotel’s dozen restaurants, bars, and clubs include the Patio, a 33-story atrium where you can listen to live jazz; Cloud 9, on the 87th floor, where the views will make you dizzier than any cocktail; and Club Jin Mao, where you can sample local specialties, such as deep-fried eel with honey soy sauce and braised bean curd with hairy crab roe. While the Pudong location is oriented more for business than pleasure, the Line 2 Metro station is just a five-minute walk away, and a horde of cheap cabs waits outside to whisk you across the Huangpu River to the Old City.

The Westin Shanghai
Perched between the Bund and People's Square, Wesin Bund Center hotel attracts a mixed clientele
Popular with travelers on an expense account, this centrally located hotel—part of the office-heavy Bund Center—is just a short walk from the swish restaurants and nightlife of the Bund. The glitzy atrium lobby features a neon-lit glass staircase and artificial palm trees, while the 570 rooms are kitted out in earth tones, with polished wood paneling and rain forest showerheads in the dark granite bathrooms. A new wing, the Grand Tower, opened in 2007; formerly serviced apartments, rooms here are more spacious, albeit pricier, than in the main building. With so many business travelers passing through the halls, service can feel a bit impersonal and corporate—front desk clerks eagerly push upgrades at check-in. There are three restaurants—we liked the wood-fired pizzas at Prego better than The Stage’s buffet—as well as a fitness center, swimming pool, and branch of the Banyan Tree spa.

Shanghai’s Art Deco Landmark Peace Hotel Reopens
For those heading to Shanghai for the World Expo this summer, a must-see destination can be found at No. 20, on Shanghai’s neoclassical riverfront – The Bund — where the north building of the legendary Peace Hotel reopened after a three-year, $65 million renovation to restore what was once the Far East’s most luxurious hotel to its 1930s glory.The newly named Fairmont Peace Hotel was built in 1929 by Sir Victor Sassoon, and originally called the Cathay Hotel. The hotel once hosted Charlie Chaplin, George Bernard Shaw and Noel Coward.
Nine of the new hotel’s 270 rooms, with advertised prices starting around $350, are decorated to celebrate the cultures of nine nations: India, England, China, America, France, Italy, Spain, Japan, and Germany. With its beautiful view of the Huangpu River, the Peace hotel is also known for its Jazz Bar, which has been frequented by such luminaries as Jimmy Carter, Queen Elizabeth II, and Ronald Reagan.Despite the modern touches, the hotel’s restored art deco interior and the kitschy Dragon Phoenix restaurant create the sensation of stepping back in time, contrasting with Shanghai’s many efforts to show an ultra-modern face.

Located between two major shopping streets, Nanjing Road and Huaihai Road in downtown Shanghai, not far from People’s Square, mainland China’s first Four Seasons offers lavish rooms and suites that are spacious and airy with splashes of red, green and yellow.
The pleasant lobby lounge, with its large windows, high ceilings, palm fronds and nightly live piano music, is one of the grandest in town.

Situated in a colonial-era villa that was once the home of a notorious Chinese mob boss, Mansion Hotel Shanghai in the heart of the city’s French Concession district is a complete throwback to the swinging Shanghai of the 1920s. This boutique hotel has been painstakingly restored into a 30-room property that feels more like a member’s club for the Fortune 500 set. The 30 rooms—some with balconies—may look charmingly old-fashioned with parquet floors, high ceilings, and glorious four-poster feather beds, but they are discreetly high-tech: Armoires contain flat-screen TVs, and there’s broadband connection throughout.
An airy lobby features colonial-period furniture interspersed with Shanghai memorabilia, including a windup gramophone from 1910 that plays original recordings of famed 1920s Peking opera star Mei Lanfang.Mansion Hotel Shanghai 首席公馆酒店

上海璞麗酒店
璞麗酒店是上海首家定位为“都会桃源”的奢华酒店， 她于2009年9月4日开业。璞丽的定位是“隐匿在上海之心的都会桃源”。所以安静是住店客人对璞丽最深刻的印象，从客房和餐厅的窗外望出去，都能看见绿荫覆盖的静安公园。大堂的灯光和柔和，家具色调以冷静的黑色和深红为主，地面也是由黑色方砖和深色地板铺就。32 米的非洲柚木长台兼作前台和吧台，清晰的纹理和微弱的木香，让人很有和大自然亲密接触的感觉。客房给人印象最深的是每个房间都有很强的通透感，浴缸往往设在临靠窗户的位置，泡澡时可以一览户外景色。不过临窗泡澡是要付出代价的，因为璞丽酒店为了大楼从外部看起来不像大多数高楼一样的灰暗，放弃了单向透视玻璃，而采用了完全透视玻璃。
无论是大堂、走道、泳池、餐厅这样的公共空间，还是私密性极强的客房内，很多细节都值得细细品味，特别是对中国传统文化有兴趣的人，一定不会放过仔细研究一番。大堂顶端摆放着两张“官帽椅”，其造型像古代官员的帽子而得名，是家具档次的象征，也是我国明式家具中椅子造型的一种典型款式。

The 1930s Art Deco-style Yantze Hotel, renamed the Langham Yangtze Boutique Shanghai after a $30 million gutting and renovation, is the Langham’s first mainland China hotel.The onetime Yangtze Hotel was built in 1934 to cater for the city’s Chinese élite with the cost of 1.2 million silver dollars (or about $325 million in today’s money) and featured a host of mod cons — like air-conditioning — that were then becoming standard in luxury international hotels.
Many of the 96 rooms and suites have their own balconies, and the hotel also lists “windows that open” as a delightful nostalgic feature. But while the accommodation may look like a set designer’s dream of the Bund, you’ll find all the modern bells and whistles among the thick carpets, opulent upholstery and somber paneling, including Internet-protocol phones and iPod-docking stations.
Diners can choose from T’ang Court (an outpost of the two-Michelin-star Cantonese restaurant at the Langham’s Hong Kong flagship), an Italian restaurant and a Japanese izakaya. The Chuan Spa, a feature of all Langham properties, is there to administer to the overfed and the overworked with its toxin-eliminating scrubs and soothing unguents.
This five star luxury boutique hotel is about as central as you can get, just a block away from the famous People’s Square and Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street and a 10 minute stroll to the historical Bund.The Langham Xintiandi, the second luxurious hotel of the group in the city, is set to open on October 1.

上海朗廷扬子精品酒店 – 曾经的远东第三大饭店“朗廷”(Langham)一直被誉为顶级豪华酒店的典范，其“欧洲血统”可追溯至140 多年前的伦敦——1865 年由威尔斯亲王主持开业的伦敦旗舰酒店。朗廷扬子精品酒店的前身扬子饭店曾经和礼查饭店、汇中饭店共同叱咤上海滩，曾是“远东第三大饭店”。阮玲玉、周璇、胡蝶等大明星也常出没于此，参加各种舞会和派对。1935年3月9日，《申报》在追记阮玲玉自杀的报道中，有一节的标题为：“前夜尚在，扬子饭店” 扬子饭店当年的设计师李幡是个旅法归来的建筑师，其米灰色的外墙色彩、丰富的纵向直线条装饰和逐层退缩的结构轮廓，都是装饰艺术风格Art Deco 的体现。配合这幢80 年左右的建筑，酒店请来英国著名的Duncan&Miller Design 公司操刀内部的设计，为酒店重新注入ArtDeco 风格的设计元素。
老上海和Art Deco 是酒店的两大主题。主设计师Eric D.Ullmann 很聪明地把这种风格注入到酒店内的各个角落，为住客掀起一场装饰艺术的盛宴。这种设计在客房里得到了很好的体现，比如Shanghai Grand Room，从地毯、床头垫、落地灯到空调出风口等都充满了Art Deco 的细节，连墙壁上的挂画都是关于装饰艺术建筑的黑白老照片。酒店现有96 个房间，其中17 间为套房，每个房间都标配了42 英寸液晶、DVD和特大浴缸等设施。豪华的旋转楼梯连接起底层的lobby 和二楼的唐阁中餐厅，将其连接成一片上下打通的开阔区域。正对其上的是由教堂般华丽的彩色玻璃打造的天花板，其图案跟旁边的六根Art Deco风格的柱子相呼应。二楼的唐阁中餐厅带来的是米其林二星厨师的品质保证——要知道香港朗廷的唐阁在去年可是米其林红色指南上的热门之选。除此之外，晚餐你可以选择 去一楼的“巧Ciao”意大利或者“窗”日式居酒屋。“川”水疗中心按照金、木、水、火、土五行设计的疗程，其概念来源于传统中药，能让你一洗旅途的疲劳。

Few people who visit Shanghai’s trendy Xintiandi district realize that among the bars and restaurants is one of the city’s most popular boutique hotels, furnished with relics from Shanghai’s fast-disappearing traditional neighborhoods. The 88 Xintiandi was originally built as serviced studios and apartments, which explains why the rooms are more spacious and better equipped than those in the average hotel. Attention to detail is all important: all 41 rooms and 12 suites are well equipped with to the use of complimentary internet and fax machines, microwave, refrigerator, plasma TV and even a juice blender! Meals are scrumptious; and in the evenings drinks can be taken on the second-floor terrace overlooking fabulous plane trees lining the street with nice views across the horizon. Double from 2064RMB (US$258) and an executive suite with two bedrooms goes for 5508RMB (US$688).380 Huang Pi Road South, Shanghai 200021

Undoubtedly the most fanciful design among Shanghai’s boutique hotels is found in the Hengshan Moller Villa, which looks as if it might have been inspired by the mad Bavarian king, Ludwig. Its original owner was Eric Moller, a British shipping magnate and lover of horse racing (There’s a bronze statue of his favorite horse in the garden). Moller had it built for his daughter during the 1920s to resemble an urban castle, complete with turrets and brickwork to mimic fortified walls. In 2001 it was refurbished and opened as a boutique hotel with 28 rooms and a lush garden. Unfortunately, the restoration included the addition of several ugly imitation buildings in the back.The villa is at the northern boundary of the old French Concession, just off the Yan An expressway on Shan’xi road. Visitors can choose from Italian-, British-, French-, or Spanish-style rooms, and restaurants offering Chinese, Japanese, or French cuisine. Rooms range from $250 for a standard to $740 for an executive suite.

衡山馬勒別墅飯店位於上海市陜西南路30號的馬勒別墅是一座具有70多年曆史、極具北歐風情的海派花園別墅，2001年經過衡山集團“歷史加功能”的精心改造，遂有了這座鬧中取靜的至尊精品酒店——衡山馬勒別墅飯店。因其雅致而獨特的風格，神秘而豐富的歷史，馬勒別墅相繼被認定為上海優秀近代建築和全國重點文物保護單位，同時還被歐洲建築師設計協會權威評為“二十世紀建築設計十個最經典作品”之一。
馬勒別墅最初的主人是上世紀初一位名叫伊利克·馬勒的猶太商人。當時，馬勒在上海從事造船、修船、輪船報關、進口業務代理和運輸業，在業界地位顯赫。傳說他的小女兒告訴馬勒，她夢到自己擁有一座“安徒生童話般的城堡”。於是馬勒請來設計師設計了這座具有北歐挪威建築風情106間房間的城堡式別墅，而且每一個房間的款式都不同,投入鉅資歷時7年才告完成。
樓房的外形是北歐挪威式，而花園和樓內裝修的許多細節又飽含了中國式的傳統風格，中西合璧，令人讚嘆不已。後來日本人佔領上海，將馬勒全家趕往了集中營，別墅一度成為日本軍人的俱樂部。後來，馬勒別墅又幾經易主。直至2001年才由衡山集團改為小型精品酒店，即現今的馬勒別墅酒店。

Housed on the 38th to 60th floors of Tomorrow Square, one of Shanghai’s most uncompromising landmarks (something like an upraised claw), China’s first JW Marriot boasts marvelously appointed rooms with full amenities, including broadband, and spectacular views. It’s ideally located a short walk from both subway lines and attractions such as the Shanghai Museum, Shanghai Grand Theatre, Nanjing Lu Pedestrian Mall and Xintiandi. Taking a leaf from the Park Hyatt’s book, this tallest hotel in Puxi has the highest library in the world, as well as China’s first Mandara Spa.
Insider Tip: Grab a window seat at the 40th-floor lounge overlooking People’s Square, and sip a signature sundowner champagne cocktail.
Room to Book: One of the 52 deluxe corner rooms, ending in numbers 08, 11, 20, or 23 on each level. The floor-to-ceiling bathroom windows let you gaze out over the city skyline while you shower.

The Runjin Hotel, located in the heart of the French Concession, is a pleasing 1930s Tudor-style villa complex that was once the massive estate of the Morriss family (owners of the oldest but now defunct English-language newspaper “The North-China Daily News” in China). Today, a number of faux “old” houses have been added to the four original villas, and this grand estate occupying a whole city block is now also home to some of Shanghai’s most romantic and stylish restaurants and bars, including Face and Lan Na Thai.
The villas, none higher than four stories, are cozy and exclusive, ask to stay in Building One, Where Chairman Mao, Zhou Enlai, Deng Xiaoping, Chiang Kai-Shek and Richard Nixon all stayed here at some point.
Along with its history, the hotel’s biggest selling point today is its majestic grounds, complete with sprawling green lawns, stone passageways covered in trellises and even a towering magnolia tree.

Waldorf Astoria Shanghai on the BundWaldorf Astoria Club, one of two buildings that will comprise the Waldorf Astoria Shanghai On The Bund, opened to guests on October 3, 2010 as the first Waldorf Astoria Hotel in China.
Housed in a once-derelict English Renaissance-style building along Shanghai’s waterfront promenade on the Bund and home of the former Shanghai Club, an exclusive club originally built in 1911, the neo-classic architectural gem has been transformed by designers at Hirsch Bedner Associates (HBA), who have combined period authenticity with the Waldorf’s ultra-luxe style. Waldorf Astoria Club contains 20 luxurious suites donned in classic European style. Dining at Waldorf Astoria Shanghai on the Bund is meant to mirror the fine dining available at the Waldorf=Astoria New York. The Long Bar is a 110-foot bar-top counter built to the specifications of the original 1911 bar, serving light fare and elegant cocktails. The hotel’s second building, the New Tower, is scheduled to open in the latter part of 2010. The 249-room tower will be located on Sichuan Road behind the Bund and will be connected to the Waldorf Astoria Club though a manicured courtyard with lush landscaping and fountains.

Boutique hotel chain, Hotel Indigo has just opened its first property in Shanghai on the Bund. The Hotel – created by leading designers Hirsch Bedner Associates (HBA) – offers spectacular views of the historic Bund and the dramatic Pudong skylines.
The 180-room hotel features a design that is tied together by the Huangpu River. The element that ties the hotel to the neighborhood is the Shiliupu Dock, now known as Pier 16. Upon entering the lobby of exposed brick and polished plaster, guests will be greeted by a striking distressed raw steel ellipse sculpture, which is shaped like a ship’s funnel and studded with LED lighting. The rest of the building echoes the strong futuristic theme with brightly illuminated sculpture installations set against the hotel’s dark marble floors and high ceilings. Throughout the hotel, guests will find an eclectic collection of designer artefacts, such as the refurbished streetlamps from the docks. But it’s in the rooms where the modern and ancient styles collide, which are decorated with custom-made silk print wallpaper – inspired by old Shanghai houses – and antique furniture, giving the thoroughly modern rooms a historic twist.The canopy bed was inspired by traditional Chinese wedding beds.Hotel Indigo Shanghai on the Bund

由享誉国际的室内设计公司HBA一手打造的上海外滩英迪格酒店最近惊艳亮相上海。该酒店是洲际酒店集团旗下亚洲首家英迪格酒店.HBA 的设计兼收并蓄，亲切和谐，设计遍及酒店的180间客房，当中包括21间江景套房及两间宽敞的花园露台套房,使酒店与毗连的黄浦江以及近在咫尺的十六铺码头紧密相连，水乳交融。十六铺码头曾是上海旧日的门户，一个繁荣的航运和贸易中心。当年，成千上万的欧洲侨民和来自中国各地的移民就是在此上岸，促进了上海这个国际都市的崛起和发展。酒店的大堂入口异常绚烂瑰丽，堪称沪上一绝；HBA选择原钢、混凝土、外露砖及抛光石膏等富有张力的基本材料为大堂进行装璜，令人不禁联想到这一空间是从码头旁的滨江阁楼改建而来。而开放式隔室与清水混凝土天花便进一步增强这种效果，并配以全日色彩幻变的灯光。与大堂如出一辙，客房也呈现一种自然色调：外露的上海灰砖、磨耗效果的灰色嵌板、抛光石膏墙和帆布。与之产生强烈对比效果的是色彩鲜艳跳跃的地毯。中式灯笼、传统家具、陶瓷和古董等兼收并蓄、机巧别致的工艺品和家具带来老上海的感觉。带顶篷的睡床为原创设计，灵感源自传统中式婚礼所用的喜床，经当代手法重新演绎。偌大的浴室设有一堵镶在抛光钢框中的玻璃墙，望向黄浦江；并设开放式湿区，当中附设配上长方形瓷面盆的简约盥洗台，营造当代风尚；而独立浴缸也同样时尚摩登。

Shanghai Tower J-Hotel to be highest hotel in the world by 2014
Shanghai Jin Jiang International Hotels Group Co. plans to build the world’s highest hotel in Shanghai that will displace the neighboring Park Hyatt and the Ritz-Carlton that will open in Hong Kong in March.
Jinjiang will develop the 258-room Shanghai Tower J-Hotel, which will occupy the 84th to the 110th floors of the 121-story building. The 632- meter Shanghai Tower in the Pudong business hub is set to be the world’s second-tallest building when it’s completed in 2014. Jin Jiang, which runs the 81-year-old Peace Hotel in Shanghai, is joining developers that have accelerated the building of landmark skyscrapers in the country. The Shanghai World Financial Center that was completed two years ago is now China’s tallest building, while the Shanghai Greenland Group Co. began constructing the world’s third-highest tower in the central Chinese city of Wuhan.
The Park Hyatt at the Shanghai World Financial Center is the world’s highest hotel, occupying the 79th to 93rd floors of the 492-meter building by Mori Building Co. The 828-meter Burj Khalifa in Dubai, which will remain the world’s tallest skyscraper even after Shanghai Tower’s completion, includes fashion icon Giorgio Armani’s first hotel on lower floors. The Ritz-Carlton Hong Kong will occupy the 102th to 118th floors of the 490-meter International Commerce Centre in Kowloon, a height that will allow it to take the top spot from the Park Hyatt in Shanghai. Jin Jiang’s hotel will overtake the Ritz-Carlton because the Shanghai hotel’s 110th floor will be at about 574.5 meters, higher than the Hong Kong building where the Ritz-Carlton is located.

The first capsule hotel to open in Shanghai
Already popular in Japan, the Xitai Capsule Hotel is the first in Shanghai, perhaps in response to soaring local real estate prices.
Located on the north side of the Shanghai Railway Station, the 300-square-meter hotel consists of 68 ‘capsules,’ each 1.1m high and 2.2m long, equipped with its own lighting, pillows, bedding, alarm clock, power sockets, flat screen television and WiFi. Shower facilities are communal.
All capsules are imported from Japan, where the concept of the capsule hotels was created, and divided into three snoring zones so those who snooze loudly will not disturb others.
Rates for a capsule are RMB 88 per day or RMB 28 flat rate plus RMB 4 per hour for those who are just stopping in for less than 24 hours.
Although not cheap — some hostels in Shanghai available for RMB 60 per night — the convenient location for travelers and the novelty factor alone might keep people knocking.
Currently the Shanghai capsule hotel will only serve men — since the shower area is communal and the pods don’t lock — but the venue owners say they will consider allowing in women if the demand is there.

With stone walls, stained glass windows and moody courtyards, Casa Serena Boutique Hotel brings an old European feel to the middle of downtown Shanghai
Casa Serena Boutique Hotel (formerly Lapis Casa) – ShanghaiIt could be the size. It’s just 18 rooms. It could be the fact that they’re decorated with unique antique pieces. Or, maybe it’s that spicy sweet candle smell that reminds you of grandma’s house at Christmas. Regardless, this Shanghai boutique hotel is one of the most intimate around — and not in the ‘massage’ type of way.
With stone walls and stain-glass windows, you almost feel as if you’re walking the dim hallways of an old European castle. Fortunately, light from the nearby park keeps the rooms from feeling too medieval — or too creepy. Lapis Casa is definitely not a museum though. The antiques from green farmhouse-inspired chairs to a claw foot bathtub are all for sale. Everyone buys Mao memorabilia when they’re in Shanghai, but who else can say they brought home a claw foot bathtub?
With Xintiandi only a short walk away, this is the perfect escape in the middle of downtown.
