This time in Shanghai, I chose the Pudong Shangri-La Hotel, which feels like living in the backyard of the Oriental Pearl Tower! The Pearl River view room in this hotel lets me enjoy the Bund’s beautiful scenery right from my bed, truly a paradise for visual lovers and photo enthusiasts✨
🏙️ Prime Location:
Right in the heart of Lujiazui, neighbors with the Oriental Pearl Tower (just 200 meters away in a straight line)! A 10-minute walk from the hotel gets you to Super Brand Mall and IFC Mall, making shopping and dining super convenient. The Lujiazui Station on Metro Line 2 is right next door, just one stop away from the Bund and Nanjing Road.
🛎️ Service Details Loved by Perfectionists:
• Upon check-in, I found the welcome fruit arranged in a cute little panda shape, so adorable I didn’t want to eat it
• The ladies at the Executive Lounge secretly told me the best photo time is between 4-6 PM
• Turndown service thoughtfully includes a steam eye mask and a weather forecast card
📸 Must-Photograph Spots:
1. Pearl River view room bathtub (must shoot at dusk) – soak in a bubble bath while taking a selfie with the Oriental Pearl Tower
2. 36th floor Executive Corridor – magical mirror effect with mirrored ceiling and floor-to-ceiling windows
3. Lobby lounge under the crystal chandelier – low-angle shot makes your legs look 2.8 meters long
🍽️ Foodie Tips:
• Breakfast offers 12 kinds of fresh juices, highly recommend the ginger lemon juice to wake up your morning
• Jade 36 restaurant’s dim sum lunch buffet (remember to book a window seat three days in advance)
• Hidden menu: say the secret code "Pujiang Night View" at the front desk to unlock exclusive cocktails
🛏️ Room Fun Facts:
All pillows come in 6 varieties (lavender, cassia seed, latex, etc.), bathroom amenities are from L’Occitane en Provence, and even the small stones on the sink are pebbles collected from the banks of the Huangpu River!
🚗 Nearby Walking Route:
Hotel → Oriental Pearl Tower (8 min) → Pudong Art Museum (15 min) → Riverside Promenade (20 min) → Take the 2 RMB ferry to the Bund (total about 3 hours)
💡 Local Insider Tips:
• Weekend river view rooms are in high demand! It’s recommended to book the "Executive Floor" room type with executive privileges
• The hotel has a secret passage directly to IFC Mall, so no worries about umbrellas on rainy days
• You can ask for a postcard at checkout, and the front desk will help mail it for you
