When traveling with parents, I always want them to live in a comfortable and warm place. Waldorf Astoria Shanghai on the Bund is very suitable. When traveling in a big city, I still prefer large hotels with convenient transportation and complete facilities. Chain hotels are also more guaranteed, and the hotel itself is a scenery. When I saw the hotel's complete facilities on the trip, I immediately placed an order. Living in a high-end hotel really feels comfortable.

It was designed in imitation of the Imperial Hotel in Tokyo. The interior is very British classical style. The new building was presented by John Portman Architects in the United States in 2011. The new building is nearly 60 meters behind the old building and is connected to the old building by a wide courtyard, which is exactly the same as the iconic Peacock Corridor of the New York Waldorf.
