Are you sure you don't want to stay at this hotel when visiting Shanghai?

This trip to Shanghai, I checked into an oriental aesthetic palace by the Bund—the Shanghai Bund Oriental Splendor Hotel, which instantly elevated the ceremonial feel of the journey! 💫 📍Prime Location The hotel faces the Lujiazui skyline directly, just a 5-minute walk to the Bund viewing platform. At night, you can enjoy the same stunning view as the "Tomson Riviera" from your room—no need to jostle with crowds when the light show begins! 🏨 Neo-Chinese Aesthetic Excellence The lobby’s crystal screens and rosewood carvings perfectly capture Shanghai’s artistic flair, while the elevator hall’s Suzhou embroidery wall is a hidden photo spot. The room’s inkstone-shaped sink and silk headboard wall—every detail is a visual delight. 🌃 Top 3 Photo Spots 1. **17th-floor Executive Lounge Terrace**: Capture the silhouette of the Oriental Pearl Tower at sunset with the Jin Mao Tower in the background—guaranteed to rack up 99+ likes on social media. 2. **Spiral Staircase**: Wear a modernized qipao and shoot from above with a wide-angle lens to highlight the architectural depth. 3. **Jade Bathtub in the Room**: Set up a tripod for an overhead shot while soaking, paired with the hotel’s rose petals—pure ambiance. 💎 Hidden Service Perks • Complimentary custom sachets with herbal ingredients for better sleep. • Turndown service includes seasonal tea snacks (this time, it was Longjing tea jelly). • Free 1-hour qipao or Zhongshan suit rental at the business center for photoshoots. 🍜 Nearby Food & Activities • 8-minute walk to the BFC Bund Finest Market (weekends only). • Next door to the Fosun Art Center—visit the exhibition and dine at the rooftop restaurant. • Cross the street for a ¥2 ferry ride to enjoy the Huangpu River nightscape. 🛎️ Booking Tips • Choose the "Bund View Room" for better value than the river-view option. • Reserve window seats for weekend afternoon tea 3 days in advance. • Off-season Thursday stays often come with room upgrades.
