Upscale Clubs & Rooftops (MASTER, AKOMA, KEV)
Smart casual is required—think button-down shirts, dresses, tailored pants, and leather shoes. Avoid sportswear, flip-flops, sneakers (unless designer), hoodies, or casual tees, as rules are stricter on weekends, especially for VIP areas.

Is Shanghai Safe to Go Out at Night?
Yes, Shanghai is generally very safe for nighttime outings—even for foreigners traveling alone.
- Most nightlife hubs (The Bund, Xintiandi, Jing’an) are well-lit, crowded, and patrolled by security or police.
- Street crime is rare, and public transport (subways, taxis, ride-hailing apps like Didi) runs late (subways until ~11:30 PM, taxis 24/7) for easy travel back to accommodations.
- Locals and staff are usually helpful if you need directions or assistance—English is widely spoken in tourist/nightlife areas.
- Tip: Stick to busy, well-known areas (avoid isolated back alleys) and keep valuables secure, as you would in any major city.

People's Square Area Shanghai|0.54km from city center
Located in a prime downtown spot, it's convenient for getting anywhere. Downstairs is very lively with restaurants, a food street, and a shopping complex all in one.
During weekdays in summer, there were many foreign guests... and quite a few elderly Chinese too. The front desk often had queues for check-in, and there were always people waiting for taxis outside. Business was really good, yet the room offered excellent value for money!
Thanks for the free upgrade to a deluxe suite~ It was newly renovated.
I was on a business trip and decided to bring my mom along so she could relax and enjoy herself.
**Facilities**
They offer a table tennis room, a swimming pool, and a gym.
No robots for food delivery pick-up though.
**Hygiene**
Clean.
**Environment**
The overall environment is good. The old five-star hotel is very well maintained; it doesn't feel old or dated.
The room was newly renovated, but the sense of space wasn't huge, and the bathroom was a bit small.
**Service**
The service attitude was excellent and professional.FromUS$118

I randomly picked this hotel for a business trip, and it completely exceeded my expectations – a pleasant surprise! The location is incredibly convenient, and the service quality of this long-standing hotel is truly exceptional. Many of the staff members are locals from Shanghai, and they are all incredibly friendly and approachable. You can always see many international guests around the hotel, which clearly indicates that it's consistently busy. The overall experience was fantastic, and I highly recommend it!FromUS$129

Our stay at the Marriott was overall very satisfying. 👍 Upon arrival, the front desk proactively upgraded our room and offered complimentary breakfast for our child, which made for a very pleasant experience. My child went swimming on the sixth floor for two consecutive days. The hotel staff were very attentive, providing towels and water, and there was a lifeguard on duty. The swimming area environment was also excellent. The hotel room size was decent, and the cleanliness was good. It came with a bathtub, which my child loved 💕, although the toilet was a bit old. I'd like to praise the hotel's delicious breakfast 😋, which offered both Chinese and Western sections. The restaurant was spacious with a beautiful ambiance and a wide variety of food options, definitely something to look forward to! The overall check-in experience was great; the lobby staff were very responsive to all requests. Food delivery robots could bring orders directly to our room. When we left, they even gave us small toys as souvenirs. We will definitely visit again!FromUS$165

Staying at this hotel for a week while my daughter interned in Shanghai was a great choice! Its location was perfect for her, allowing easy subway access for work, and for me, offering plenty of options for exploring. It's just a 5-minute walk from the subway, with lots of small shops on Huaihai Road and Changle Road nearby, which was really convenient. Though the facilities are a bit old, it's very clean, and the courtyard is beautiful!FromUS$122

Train Station Area Shanghai|2.4km from city center
I've stayed at the Pullman Shanghai Jing An multiple times, and as always, the Accor brand delivers consistent quality and reliability. The location is truly a major advantage, being close to Shanghai Railway Station and the subway, which makes catching high-speed trains and transferring incredibly convenient. Check-in and check-out are highly efficient, and the front desk staff are professional and polite, responding to requests promptly and thoughtfully. The rooms are clean and well-maintained, with soft and comfortable bedding. The soundproofing is excellent; even though it's near a transportation hub, it's very quiet once you close the door, allowing for a good night's rest. The spacious desk in the room is perfect for business travelers, and the bathroom facilities are in good condition. The breakfast buffet offers a rich variety of options, both Chinese and Western, with fresh ingredients. The hotel also features a heated swimming pool and a gym, perfect for exercising and relaxing during downtime. I highly recommend this hotel for both business trips and short leisure stays in Shanghai. I'll definitely choose it again on my next visit to Shanghai.FromUS$82

Jing'an District/West Nanjing Road Shanghai|0.85km from city center
I didn't have high expectations for this trip, but I was completely won over from the moment I walked in. Lily at the front desk was quick and patient with my check-in, and even offered to help with my luggage when she saw me struggling, instantly taking half the fatigue off my shoulders.
The room was a delight from the first glance: clean and fresh overall, not a hint of odor, and all the little details were meticulously arranged. The bedding was soft and fluffy, the pillows were just the right height, and the soundproofing was excellent. Hot water was consistent, and water pressure was strong.
The hotel's public areas were also very well-maintained, with an elegant and quiet ambiance. It's clear they are genuinely dedicated to service, not just churning out guests. The location is convenient for getting around, with dining and shopping nearby, which saved a lot of time.FromUS$165

The Bund Area Shanghai|1.73km from city center
The hotel is good, and getting around is convenient. The room is a bit small, but perfectly adequate. The main advantage is its excellent location for exploring. It's easy to find from Exit 7 of Yuyuan Metro Station, and very close to Yuyuan Garden and Chenghuang Temple. The Bund is just a ten-minute walk away. The only downside is the lack of a dedicated concierge service. When picking up stored luggage, there's no one specifically assigned to it, so you have to wait until someone finishes checking in other guests. I hope they can improve this, or perhaps the front desk could contact someone else to retrieve luggage, as the waiting time can be quite long. The front desk is on the 7th floor, and the elevator is also slow. Breakfast is just okay; it's better to order delivery. The Dahuchun shengjian (pan-fried buns) are good and delivered quickly.FromUS$132

Good hotel nice location, so many small things were annoying and don't represent the price or the stars rewarded. I was woken every morning by the bins being collected at 6am, the batteries in the remote weren't working, letters missing from directions, the view from the room was straight into another window, the staff pushed me to write a review and when they saw I wasn't rating 5 stars across the board they told me not to leave a review. There are other great hotels in Shanghai for the same price and the same type of room. The shower was hot, the service from the staff was great and the beds were comfortable.FromUS$97

The Bund Area Shanghai|1.27km from city center
The hotel's breakfast was good, and the pool wasn't crowded with nice, clean water. The location is indeed very close to the Bund. However, the room facilities are old, the power outlets are loose, and the toilet in the bathroom leaks. The staff basically ignored my two requests on Ctrip: a room with a good view and a high floor. Also, as a smoker, I will certainly abide by the rules on a non-smoking floor, but the sign in the room stating that smoking inside will incur a 2000 RMB cleaning fee felt incredibly ironic and hostile.FromUS$150

The hotel was exceptionally clean and tidy. It was recommended by my foreign colleagues for my business trip to Shanghai. The surrounding area is bustling, located in the core business district of Jing'an Temple, making it very convenient for subway travel, shopping, and sightseeing. The bedding in the room was soft and comfortable, and the soundproofing was excellent, ensuring a good night's rest for my business trip. I happened to be there during a typhoon with heavy rain in Shanghai, and I particularly appreciate the doorman who promptly helped with my luggage.

The location is a huge plus, right in the Dapuqiao area, very close to the subway, making it convenient to visit Tianzifang and Xintiandi. Plus, there are plenty of dining and shopping options downstairs. Check-in at the front desk was quite fast, and even a standard room is 48 square meters, offering a very spacious stay.

We booked this eco-friendly hotel for 3 nights. The hotel is very conveniently located: there's a metro station nearby, as well as two shopping centres. The hotel is large, but there was quiet and peaceful.
The view from the window was beautiful, even despite the typhoon that was hitting Shanghai these days (our room was on the 12th floor. We chose the hotel because of its location and good breakfasts. The breakfasts were really very delicious and tasty.
There was both Chinese and European food. A wide selection of fruits: watermelons, melons, apricots, mangoes, bananas, dragon fruit. There were many different pastries, several types of yogurts, even matcha yogurt.
Also, at the exit from the restaurant, there was a Candy Bar with chewy marmalade: you can put the marmalade in a small bag.
The room had everything, including a capsule coffee machine, an ironing board, and an iron, which is very convenient. l'd especially like to mention the eco-friendly slippers, which really stand out from the slippers in other hotels: they're very comfortable.

The environment is upscale and grand, and the staff are incredibly warm and attentive. As soon as you arrive, they help with luggage and open car doors. The breakfast selection is extensive. What impressed me most this time was Bella, the lady at the front desk who handled my check-in, and the very gentle-looking gentleman at the front desk – I was a bit rushed and didn't catch his name, but I'll make sure to note it next time. I stayed here for two nights, and the experience was excellent; the facilities are all great. From upstairs, you can see Shanghai Railway Station, and it's about 600 meters from the subway, so the location is fantastic, very convenient whether you're taking a taxi or the subway.

Room: We stayed in a quiet king room on the second floor. It was spacious and fully equipped. The hot spring bath looked small, but it could actually fit two or three people comfortably. Upon check-in, we received two bath salts and a bathtub liner. The bath salts' scent was barely noticeable due to the large size of the tub. The air conditioning in the room had a dehumidifying function, so it never felt damp after a soak.
Environment: The hotel is surrounded by several buildings, making it very quiet and private. It has its own small Japanese garden, perfect for photos and feeding fish.
Location: It's about a 15-20 minute walk from Zhenbei Road Station on Metro Line 13. It's close to Zhonghuan Bailian, so dining and ordering takeout are very convenient. There's even a Metro store right across the street!FromUS$96

The hotel room facilities are good, with everything that should be there. The smoking area outside is also very beautiful. The breakfast in the morning is very good, it is self-service, and there are freshly made noodles to eat. If you are thirsty, you can go downstairs at any time to have some drinks and fruits, which are all included in the hotel package. Why the deduction? Like many reviews wrote, the water in the pool here is really too hot. It is the hottest of all the hot springs in Shanghai that I have been to. It feels too hot. I saw that several children could hardly soak in the water for a while. I don’t know why so many people complained. I saw that the management was still saying in the comments that it met the hot spring temperature requirements. What they said is that your water is too hot, and they are giving you suggestions. Everyone in the hot spring said that the water was hot, not that you violated any regulations... It takes talent to reply like thisFromUS$57

The location is located in the forest but there's no light surrounding during night . There are 3 pet dogs who live nearby (one of them is friendly). During winters the place is almost empty. Best for solo or couple travels. Sauna in winter is a must try. Overall the room needs a little repairing but it's not that noticable. The rooms are pretty large and provide all amenities. Each room is calm a provides a retreat for a peaceful vacation. The Breakfast lady is nice and hospitable. Breakfast included milk, croissant , a pastry an egg and a bowl of wontons.

In morning one can have a morning walk around forest or bike ( during winters the bike become a bit rusty though). The place also provides Kayaking in the nearby lake for 100 RMB / 3 hrs . It's best to enjoy kayaking in summers. Will visit here again. Also the place doesn't provide dinner but there are 2 nearby places providing good food.

The hotel was indeed good. They called me the day before, but it felt more like a formality after I added them on WeChat. From check-in to check-out, there was no follow-up or care from them. However, after I booked the hotel and contacted them myself, Kira from Guest Relations reached out to me. She was incredibly responsible and stayed in touch with us throughout our stay, from check-in to check-out, helping us with a lot of things!

Honestly, this hotel🏨 is perfect in every way except for the price. We stayed in a connecting suite, which is essentially two rooms connected by a living room. It was very convenient for a family. As connecting rooms are in the executive area, the stay included breakfast, afternoon tea, and a light dinner. If you don't need to entertain, having a light meal at the hotel is quite nice. The air conditioning in the hotel was incredibly strong, to the point where I got stomach cramps from being frozen for the last two days😭. In the evenings, the hotel has an old-fashioned 'senior' music hall, where 70-year-olds perform. The gentleman playing the piano looked very familiar to me, and later the staff said he had been on CCTV, haha! My parents loved listening to the old songs. The music hall has a minimum spend of around 400 RMB per person! The hotel also has an afternoon tea dance hall where many people dance ballroom, which is quite interesting. On the 9th floor, there's an outdoor bar with amazing views of the Huangpu River and the Oriental Pearl Tower at night. The hotel also has a museum detailing its history from its inception to the present day, which is quite fascinating. There are daily guided tours, which are pretty fun to listen to. My daughter and I even took a set of beautiful photos with the hotel's old pictures. I truly hope the Peace Hotel continues to thrive.FromUS$323

On the second day, I switched to a executive king room. The Jin Mao Tower goes up to the 88th floor, but the top floors are for tourist sightseeing and skywalks. The hotel itself only goes up to the 85th floor, and the highest guest rooms are on the 84th. I was on the executive floor, which allowed me multiple entries to the executive lounge throughout the day. It was very luxurious, and the food was fresh. The service was excellent; they even upgraded me for free, which I really appreciated. The front desk staff were welcoming and patiently answered my questions. The gym was also very good.FromUS$197

I chose this hotel specifically for the Labubu cake promotion, and overall, it was a great experience. The location is excellent, the environment is clean and tidy, and the staff were very enthusiastic. Although there was a minor hiccup with the Labubu cake purchase, the 'Guest Relations' lady was incredibly helpful and made sure I got my beloved Labubu cake, for which I'm very grateful. It's a shame I don't know her name, but I truly appreciate her efforts. My trip to 'The Sukhothai' was definitely worth it!FromUS$254

I brought my elders to the Grand Hyatt on the Bund for their birthday this time, and the experience exceeded my expectations. It boasts an excellent view of the Bund and the river, with a wide vista and an elegant, grand ambiance. The room was clean and comfortable. The hotel service was thoughtful and warm; upon learning it was my elder's birthday, they specially prepared a little birthday surprise. The staff member, Lorna, was humble and considerate in every way, and communication was smooth. The river view at night created a wonderful atmosphere, making it a comfortable and unforgettable birthday for my elders. Overall, we were very satisfied with everything, and my elders couldn't stop praising it.FromUS$147

The hotel boasts an excellent location, right next to Kerry Centre and just a few minutes' walk from Plaza 66. While the hotel's facilities are a bit dated, they are still perfectly functional. The executive lounge privileges are a real highlight, allowing us to dine entirely within the hotel, which was very convenient with a child. We were also lucky enough to see a rainbow after the typhoon – good luck to everyone!FromUS$230

The Diplomatic Suite is incredibly spacious, offering fantastic views from the 25th floor. The overall design style is classic and dignified, feeling grand rather than dated.
All room amenities worked perfectly; the TV allowed screen mirroring, and the massage tub, coffee machine, and Bluetooth speaker were all easy to use. The bedding was comfortable, the sofa was large, and the living room and dining area had huge floor-to-ceiling windows. The bedroom offered views from two sides, allowing us to watch the shimmering reflections on the Huangpu River during the day, and at night, enjoy an unobstructed view of the Bund's architectural clusters, Waibaidu Bridge, and the illuminated North Bund.
The hotel staff were warm and polite, housekeeping kept the room spotless, and the turndown service was thoughtful. Room service deserves special praise – you can order anytime, and it usually arrives within 30 minutes. The burgers, fried noodles, pasta, cakes, and Chinese dishes all tasted excellent.
The executive lounge service was also great. There were à la carte options for brunch, and light dinner options during happy hour. The staff were helpful with making coffee and serving à la carte dishes.FromUS$147

Stepping into this historic old building, walking along its corridors feels like traveling back a hundred years. The black and white marble floors and vintage columns showcase architectural beauty. Our dedicated concierge, Aaron Echole, meticulously explained the building's transformation from the Shanghai Club to the Dongfeng Hotel, making our stay much more than just a photo op. The room exuded a strong vintage vibe; with every breath, you could feel the unique modern charm of old Shanghai.FromUS$344

Sheshan, Songjiang University Town Shanghai|35.83km from city center
Fantastic stay in this hotel with spectacular view! The unique cliff view is definitely worth every penny! We have chosen a room with direct view to the waterfall. As our stay was on a Friday, the waterfall was not available which is bit to our disappointment. But waking up this morning (Sat), the waterfall is on. So nice! And so lucky we can catch the chance to take some more photos! At night, there is a lighting show in the open cliff area. So we taken our dinner out the balcony to enjoy the light show. Nice activity at night!
The service of this hotel tops all experiences with hotels. When I checked in, the staff asked if can add my WeChat account for instant customer service purposes. Then I received tips for the nearby travel spots, dining assistance, caring services such as asking me if needs to take my food delivery up to the room for me and asking if I need another taller pillow etc.
The complementary fruit platter and dessert and some freebie at time of checkout are indeed a bonus surprise.FromUS$227

Jiayu is more like an apartment-style hotel, which is a great option if you're traveling with children or elderly family members.

Everbright Convention and Exhibition Center Shanghai|12.35km from city center
The location is unbeatable. It's super convenient – just take the escalator up to the second floor from the Purple Vine Road metro station exit towards MixC, and you'll see the hotel. It would be even better if there was a convenience store nearby. The hotel environment is also excellent, with large floor-to-ceiling windows that provide amazing natural light in the morning. The room itself is very tidy. The only downside is that the hallway decor is a bit peculiar, especially the wallpaper – it actually startled me the first time I stayed here. Overall, it's great value for money, and I'll likely stay here again next year when I come to Shanghai.FromUS$27
