Planning a stylish escape in Shanghai? Upper House Shanghai shines for travelers who want to soak up the city’s energy while indulging in upscale comfort. Its unbeatable location next to Taikoo Hui means dining, shopping, and entertainment are just steps away—perfect for experiencing Shanghai at full speed. The real win here is the blend of convenience and comfort. You'll be walking distance to trendy bars, boutiques, and tasty eats. The hotel’s breakfast is a cut above—don’t miss out on the cooked-to-order dandan noodles or the laksa rice noodles for a local-meets-global morning treat. For foodies, the on-site restaurants are also worth a dinner booking. Looking for great photo locations? Head up to the upper floors for panoramic city views, or snap your outfit in front of the chic lobby art and modern architecture. Featured post insider tips: 1. Skip the morning rush—head down early for breakfast and request the chef’s specials for a personalized start to your day. 2. For nightlife lovers, Taikoo Hui’s rooftop bars are a must; ask the concierge for their current favorites and hidden gems nearby. 3. If you’re sensitive to noise, request a room at the back and pack earplugs—soundproofing isn’t perfect, so you’ll sleep better. Booking directly on trip.com often lands exclusive promotions—book early to secure the best rates. Pro tip: schedule time for the local boutique shops just off Shi Men Yi Road, especially if you love discovering up-and-coming designers. #Shanghai #LuxuryHotel #CityEscape #TravelTips #FoodieFinds

Upper House Shanghai

The Middle House is one of my favorite hotels in Shanghai, with a great location right next to Zhang Yuan. It’s less than a 17-minute walk from People’s Square and adjacent to HKRI Taikoo Hui, making it a convenient choice whether for shopping or dining. Not far away, you’ll also find the bustling Jing’an Temple area, as well as Plaza 66 and CITIC Square for more shopping options. As The Middle House is relatively new, the facilities are modern and well maintained. The hotel lobby and restaurants are of high quality, and the classic Chinese dishes are worth trying, both in terms of taste and ambience. For travelers looking for a place to stay in Shanghai, this hotel is highly recommended. 📍The Middle House, 366 Shimen Rd (No.1), Jing’An, Shanghai, China, 200041 #mytraveldiary #shanghai
