The retro vibe brought by the Waldorf Astoria Shanghai~

Every snapshot at the Waldorf Astoria Shanghai on the Bund looks like a vintage masterpiece! As soon as you enter the hotel lobby, the gorgeous retro European style hits you, blending classical and modern elements, creating a full atmosphere! The hotel consists of a century-old building and a modern new building. The old building features a vintage style with retro elevators, black-and-white checkered spiral staircases, crystal chandeliers... easily capturing the ambiance! The new building is ART DECO style, with floor-to-ceiling windows offering breathtaking river views. The room decor is elegant; on the left upon entering is a small dressing room, alongside a multifunctional bathroom area with full marble flooring, double sinks, and a dry-wet separation layout, giving a strong sense of ceremony. The old-money style exudes luxury. Aesop toiletries and soft bedding provide excellent quality. Outside the window, you can see the Bund Center and the cityscape of Huangpu District. Breakfast is also great, with delicious omelets, Eggs Benedict, yellow croaker noodles, and toasted bread. The service is attentive and thoughtful, and the coffee quality is top-notch. The Pujianghui afternoon tea features a three-tiered dim sum stand with champagne, all while enjoying stunning views of the Bund. The Century Corridor Bar is a 34-meter-long bar from the original "Shanghai General Club" built in 1911, once the "longest bar in the Far East," with black-and-white marble floors, solid wood bar counters, high-back leather chairs, and vintage chandeliers that make you feel like you've traveled back to old Shanghai. Food lovers should not miss Pelham's Michelin-starred restaurant; the salmon with caviar is absolutely amazing! The hotel is located in the core area of the Bund, right outside the door is the Bund itself, with views of the Huangpu River and the Lujiazui skyline across the river. Many nearby attractions are close by, including Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street and Yuyuan Garden, all within walking distance. The gym is open 24 hours, and the indoor pool is rarely crowded. Through the floor-to-ceiling windows, you can see the Bund street scenes and historic Shikumen-style buildings.
