The Jazz Bar

The jazz bar on the first floor of Peace Hotel is also a very famous place. When you come to Peace Hotel, you must definitely visit the jazz bar to experience it. The jazz band has an average age of over 60 years old, which is very good!

The grandpas are so old, but they can still perform such wonderful jazz for us. The biggest feature of the hotel is these grandpas. They may be the oldest performers in all bars.

❤When night falls, the Peace Hotel, located in the center of Shanghai, hears a familiar melody, and the retro Shanghai style of the 1920s and 1930s slowly flows out in those familiar old songs. When you walk into this jazz bar and see the group of people performing on the stage, the shock at that moment is really indescribable. They are gray-haired but wear energetic blue suits. They look focused, and their skinny fingers stroke the instruments in their arms. They are the elderly jazz band of the Peace Hotel. 🎶The Peace Hotel Elderly Jazz Band was established in 1980. It is one of the most prestigious jazz bands in Shanghai and the only elderly jazz band in China. The average age has reached 80 years old. For 40 years, they have been bringing classic jazz music to the jazz bar on the first floor of the Peace Hotel every night. You can't see the decadence of the 80-year-old octogenarians at all. Their love for music and enjoyment of life are shown in them. This state really makes us young people who are tired at every turn feel ashamed. 💃As the music started, many people couldn't help but dance. A song of zhongsan or rumba made this small jazz bar more charming, as if returning to the dance party held in the old house in the 1930s. While listening to the music, you can also sit at the bar counter and watch the handsome bartender mix drinks. 🥂The minimum consumption per person in the jazz bar is a glass of wine, which is about 100 per person, which is actually very cost-effective. It is also a special experience to enjoy a romantic cocktail in the jazz style of old Shanghai. 👨‍🦳Compared to the young and handsome guys, these "old bacon" are more memorable. Knowing that we are from Xiamen, the current group leader came to chat with us. His talkative manners made us feel their feelings. He likes new things and is willing to share their joy. 🤗"People say that seeing us is like seeing the prosperity of old Shanghai. In fact, it is not. What we witness is a brand new Shanghai." 👍If you come to Shanghai, if you pass by the Bund at night, even if you don't stay at the Peace Hotel, it is strongly recommended that you come to the jazz bar and listen to the live performance of the old jazz band. Accompanied by classic jazz music and a glass of Sassoon cocktail, it seems to have returned to the "golden age" of the last century. The flickering candlelight and the floating notes interpret the dream of old Shanghai to the fullest. 💡Travel guide information: Peace Hotel Jazz Bar 📍Address: Lobby on the first floor of Peace Hotel, Shanghai ⏱️Business hours: 18:00-24:00 every night; old jazz band performance 19:30-23:00

If you must stay at the Peace Hotel in Shanghai, you must also listen to the Peace Hotel's elderly jazz band. In this "most romantic place in Shanghai", the six grandfather-level musicians are about 80 years old on average, and are particularly good at playing those famous jazz songs from the 1930s and 1940s. The memories of the Paramount era are written in their music. Today, the musicians are already over 70 years old, but fortunately they are still as good as ever. The bar has many wooden structures and red steel brick floors, which have a retro feel from the 1930s and 1940s, as if returning to the time of the past. Their "ageless legend" has also become a beautiful scenery of the Peace Hotel. When jazz music plays melodiously, the night of the Peace Hotel has a velvety luster, the fragrance of agarwood, and the gentle and affectionate breeze of the river... As night falls, neon lights shine, and Shanghai at night makes its debut, making people recall the old dreams of old Shanghai in the last century.

I went to Shanghai for the Spring Festival and came to the jazz bar to relax in the evening. I asked in the afternoon if I needed to make a reservation, and the staff said I could come directly at 6pm. I ordered a glass of white beer for 88 yuan, a cocktail Manhattan for 98 yuan, and paid the service charge, a total of 214 yuan. Since I was a hotel guest, I didn't seem to need to pay the entrance fee. The performance of the elderly jazz band does not need any professional perspective to comment on this performance. The key point is to sit in the bar, drink some wine, chat, and experience the feeling of old Shanghai.

There is an award-winning old jazz band with an average age of 82, which has been filmed in documentaries abroad. Every performance is full, and if you come later, you need to wait in line or share a table. The bar is in English country style, formerly known as "Horse and Hound", and was famous for its jazz performances in the 1930s. The old jazz band in the bar has performed for many politicians, celebrities, movie stars and tourists from all over the world. The renovated jazz bar has now restored its former glory. Classic cocktails and enduring jazz make this a must-visit place for tourists from all over the world. The six musicians of the old jazz band have performed at the Peace Hotel for nearly 40 years. Most of the songs they performed are popular nostalgic songs from the 1920s and 1930s. The singing of Teresa Teng's voice is intoxicating.

I went to a party with a friend. It was late when I arrived. But the band was still able to perform. They played classic old songs. It was a pleasant surprise. I saw the average age of the band members. They were wearing white performance clothes. They were very professional! There was also a female guest dancing to the music from time to time. The atmosphere was quiet and ambiguous! Peace Hotel at midnight. Ah!

This old jazz bar in Peace Hotel still has its own style. Every time I come here, I sit for a while and have a drink. ​Spend the New Year in the jazz bar of Peace Hotel. The dark lights, glassware cabinets, and white-haired performers playing melodious jazz music all tell the mood of old Shanghai. Watching these old artists with gray hair perform for us, I was very moved.
