Shanghai Miller Villa Hotel
Staying at Shanghai Miller Villa Hotel felt like stepping into a fairy tale—rich in history and charm from the moment you walk in. The exterior might not scream 'new and flashy,' but inside, everything has that timeless elegance of old-money quality—the bedding was incredibly comfortable, making for a restful night's sleep. Even small details like the hairdryer, flooring, and seating had a refined, classic touch. Breakfast was simple but satisfying, and the short castle tour offered surprising insights and fun facts. I did have a slight disappointment with the terrace, but the front desk made up for it by giving me a little magnet as a thoughtful gift. Honestly, I couldn’t ask for more—this place strikes the perfect balance between heritage, comfort, and genuine hospitality. Would absolutely return.
Okura Garden Hotel Shanghai
Staying at Okura Garden Hotel Shanghai was an absolute delight. Located just off Huaihai Middle Road, it's literally steps away from Xianxia South Road Metro Station, making access to all major attractions super convenient. You can easily walk to People's Square, Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street, The Bund, Jing'an Temple, Wukang Road, Song Qingling Residence, Sun Yat-sen’s Former Home, Tianzi Fang, and even the Shanghai Natural History Museum or Cai Yuanpei’s Former Residence—all within a pleasant walking distance. Along the way, you’ll pass charming old shikumen homes, cozy cafes, boutique shops, and historic landmarks, making every stroll feel like a little adventure through Shanghai’s soul. The hotel’s lush garden on the south side is a peaceful retreat—perfect for unwinding in the middle of the bustling city. While some facilities show their age, everything is well-maintained and blends beautifully with Shanghai’s classic charm. Service is exceptional—attentive, thoughtful, and clearly influenced by Japanese hospitality standards. Even the hallway has that subtle, calming Japanese aesthetic. Breakfast is a highlight too, offering authentic Japanese touches like natto and miso soup, alongside a wide variety of other options. It’s rare to find such a well-balanced mix of location, atmosphere, service, and comfort. This place truly delivers on every level—highly recommended for anyone looking to experience the heart of Shanghai the right way.
Capella Shanghai Jian Ye Li
Absolutely exceeded all expectations! From two days before arrival, Ethan, our cultural concierge, reached out proactively with thoughtful attention to detail. He even asked about special occasions like birthdays or anniversaries—something I truly didn’t expect. When he found out my birthday was coming up, the hotel quietly arranged a simple, heartfelt touch in the room—no over-the-top theatrics, just genuine warmth that brought tears to my eyes. Check-in was seamless and relaxing, with a welcoming tea and snack delivered by the library attendant. Ethan personally guided me through the space, easing any first-time guest nerves. I’d been worried about my mom navigating multiple floors, but the layout was surprisingly intuitive—far more logical than other heritage redeveloped hotels I’ve stayed at where you’d get lost trying to find your room. The moment we stepped into the suite, the clean, bright ambiance hit me—subtle fragrance, elegant lighting, and that charming blend of old-world character with modern comfort. The former courtyard pavilion transformed into a cozy media room? Perfect. Mini-bar stocked with great local treats, including nostalgic Dabai Rabbit comics playing on the TV—my mom fell head over heels. Breakfast was à la carte, perfectly portioned, fresh, and delicious—especially the croissant, which was impossibly crisp. But the real surprise came the next day: another proper birthday cake! That level of personal care is rare. Staff were consistently smiling, responsive, and attentive—Ethan’s messages were answered instantly. Honestly, after staying at several other city-inspired heritage properties, none have moved me quite like this one. By nightfall, my mom had already decided to change her flight and extend her stay by an extra night—she was so taken by the experience. If not for other plans, I’d have stayed longer. The value-for-money here is outstanding. We had an unforgettable, heartwarming evening. Next time I’m in Shanghai, there’s no other choice—I’ll be back without hesitation.
Jin Jiang Hotel
Staying at Jin Jiang Hotel was an absolute delight—this truly is a century-old institution with character and charm. The room exuded that classic 'old cadre' elegance, with refined details that made me feel like I'd stepped into history. Breakfast was outstanding—rich in traditional Chinese dim sum, especially the noodle toppings: mushroom, preserved mustard greens, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and over ten other varieties—all fresh and flavorful. For those sensitive to caffeine, there were plenty of tea options to choose from, which was thoughtful and appreciated. But the real highlight? The famous Jinjiang Peking Duck. The skin turns a perfect amber hue, crisp yet not greasy, served with a house-made dipping sauce that elevates every bite. The scallions are plump, juicy, and sweet—perfect for cutting through the richness. Service was exceptional too. The concierge greeted me warmly and even offered a vintage-style luggage cart to transport me from the VIP Pavilion to Jinbei Building—a small touch, but it added so much character to the experience. Located on the site of the original 1926-era Cathay Apartments (the same owner as Peace Hotel), the building’s white architectural lines remain strikingly elegant. Since its founding by Ms. Dong Zhujun in 1951, the hotel has welcomed hundreds of heads of state from over 20 countries worldwide—earning its reputation as China’s premier guesthouse for international dignitaries. The garden is spacious and serene, with a stunning lawn that feels like a private oasis. Cleanliness is top-notch, and the blend of timeless heritage with modern comfort makes this stay unforgettable. If you’re looking for authenticity, quality, and a bit of legacy, this place delivers—highly recommended.

As a five-star property, the rooms are all on higher floors, offering quiet, spacious accommodations with great views. The location is super convenient—just a short subway ride from everything we needed. It easily met our company’s lodging standards while still feeling luxurious. One colleague even said they’d be booking here again on future trips. Definitely a top pick for both comfort and practicality.

That kind of thoughtful gesture truly made the trip unforgettable 🤩 It’s not just about the luxury—it’s the genuine care and attention that makes this hotel stand out. A perfect blend of comfort, charm, and surprise. Definitely coming back.

From check-in to check-out, the staff were warm, professional, and genuinely attentive—especially the front desk agent, Gu Pan, whose friendly demeanor made a lasting impression. The room I booked was the smallest option, but I was pleasantly surprised to find a freestanding soaking tub—a delightful bonus I didn’t expect (though I didn’t get to use it!). The location is unbeatable: directly facing Xujiahui Library and the Catholic Church, offering a peaceful morning view. Check-out was quick and smooth, and there’s a dedicated counter for luggage storage, which is super convenient. Overall, the service, ambiance, and attention to detail made this stay exceptional.

We stayed at this hotel with our daughter for four nights, and the entire experience was absolutely delightful. The front desk staff, Judy, was incredibly warm and thoughtful—she even invited us to connect via the hotel’s WeChat account, which made it super easy to reach out with any questions. Responses were prompt and helpful, giving us peace of mind throughout our stay. The housekeeping team truly stood out—they kept the room immaculate every day, and even noticed when a pack of makeup pads was missing, promptly restocking it without being asked. It’s impressive how attentive they are, especially since we barely used any of the complimentary amenities.
