Shanghai Xujiahui A.T.HOUSE Jia Di Hotel

Walking out of the metro station and turning the corner brings you right to the door—super convenient. The hotel is just steps away from Xujiahui Cathedral and Xujiahui Library, with luxury shopping hubs like Hongkong Plaza and Meiluo City nearby. If you're heading to Shanghai Stadium or Sports Arena for a concert, it's only one stop on the metro—or even easier, a short walk or bike ride away. This A.T.HOUSE property has that modern art vibe I love. The second-floor afternoon tea lounge and late-night dining spot are both stylish and inviting. The pastries are delicious, and the chicken soup wontons as well as the pork-filled dumplings are seriously satisfying. I was originally booked into a room type that wasn’t available yet, but the team kindly upgraded me to a Premium Suite—huge upgrade in space, view, and design. Everything felt thoughtfully curated. I ordered fresh fruit platters after my concert, and they arrived at my door in no time. The bedding was incredibly comfortable, and the service throughout was top-notch. Even at check-out, they handed me a lovely souvenir—a large record-shaped biscuit box that’s both cute and tasty. If there’s another concert in town, this will be my go-to hotel again.

I’ve passed by this hotel countless times while commuting, always dreaming of staying here—and finally made it happen. The moment I stepped into the grand lobby with its soaring ceiling and dazzling crystal chandelier, I knew this was going to be special. The property sits on nearly 60,000 square meters of private garden, making it feel like a hidden European estate right in the heart of bustling Shanghai. From the very first greeting, the service was exceptional—Esther from front desk went above and beyond: upgraded our room, offered a two-hour late check-out without hesitation, and even shared her WeChat for easy communication. That kind of personal touch is rare. Breakfast was an absolute highlight—huge variety, beautifully presented. From freshly steamed dim sum and handmade noodles to a wide selection of breads, oatmeal, fresh fruit, yogurt, and even ice cream, every detail was thoughtfully curated. But what truly stole the show was the garden. Lush green lawns, mature trees casting dappled sunlight, historic buildings nestled among foliage—perfect for quiet strolls or Instagram-worthy shots. Every corner feels like a scene from a film. The pool is clean and refreshingly salty—almost like swimming in the sea! Plus, there are two hot tubs nearby, perfect for unwinding.

Mandarin Oriental Pudong Shanghai

Staying at Mandarin Oriental Pudong Shanghai was absolutely perfect — truly flawless! We were celebrating our 10th wedding anniversary, and the hotel surprised us with a delicious cake and a beautifully presented fruit platter. The attention to detail made the moment even more special. We booked the Riverview Executive Suite, and it lived up to every expectation — spacious, elegant, and offering breathtaking views of the Huangpu River, especially at night. Every staff member we met was incredibly attentive, polite, and genuinely warm, making us feel like VIP guests throughout our stay. From check-in to check-out, everything was seamless and thoughtful. We’ve already planned our next trip to Shanghai just to enjoy the autumn foliage — the ginkgo and red leaves are calling! If you're looking for an unforgettable experience in Shanghai, this is the place to stay. I’ll definitely be back.

Park Hyatt Shanghai

My wife and I stayed at Park Hyatt Shanghai for one night, and it was an absolutely delightful experience. The room was spacious and impeccably clean, with a modern design that felt both luxurious and calming. Everything was brand new—especially the smart toilet, which added a nice touch of convenience. The café on the 87th floor is a real gem; sitting there with a view of the Huangpu River was unforgettable. Special thanks to Ms. Zhou Liping, who went above and beyond with her warm and attentive service—always checking in, helping out, and making us feel truly cared for. The front desk staff were equally welcoming and efficient, creating a seamless check-in experience. From start to finish, the level of hospitality was outstanding. It’s rare to find such genuine warmth and attention to detail. We left feeling completely at home, and we’ll definitely be back. Highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Shanghai.

Pullman Shanghai Xuhui

We decided to check in a day early for our kid’s performance at the hotel’s banquet hall on New Year's Eve, avoiding potential traffic stress. From the moment we arrived, the front desk had already prepared our room—so thoughtful and efficient! The staff went above and beyond, even providing earplugs when asked. Our room on the 16th floor was spacious and well-designed with a business-friendly vibe—comfortable bed that made for a great night’s sleep, and a bathroom with clear separation between wet and dry areas, plus a relaxing bathtub. Since we had a late checkout due to the event, we were pleasantly surprised to get complimentary parking—no extra hassle. Breakfast and lunch were both enjoyed at the hotel restaurant. The breakfast buffet offered a good variety and consistent quality, while lunch was equally satisfying. Everything was smooth, convenient, and genuinely enjoyable. This stay exceeded expectations—perfect for families or business travelers looking for comfort and reliability. Highly recommended.
