The new top hotel in the Magic City, Alila Shanghai, is absolutely stunning!

Among the 10 Alila hotels worldwide (including the rebranded Hua Hin and Luang Prabang), Alila Shanghai truly brings a brand-new interpretation! ✨

📍 Address: Nanjing West Road business district, Jing'an District, Shanghai (next to Wangwang Building)
🚇 Transportation: 5-minute walk from Nanjing West Road Station on Metro Lines 2, 12, and 13

Unlike other Alila hotels' pursuit of [light/white],
the Shanghai branch showcases a unique [shadow/black] aesthetic 🎭
✔️ Dark-toned wood and stone with a high-end texture
✔️ Gray bedding fully embodies the wabi-sabi style
✔️ Green plants and floral arrangements in public areas add lively touches

My favorite little weekend joy 💕:
Sitting by the floor-to-ceiling window enjoying the view of the Lujiazui trio of skyscrapers,
with the Oriental Pearl Tower just perfectly blocked (lol)
so you can openly enjoy your Mixue Ice City drink 🧋

Discovered these delightful details 👇:
🍳 Breakfast is amazing! Must try the crab roe fish downstairs
💐 Night turndown service is super thoughtful, tea leaves replaced with chamomile
🏙️ 5-minute walk to Zhang Garden and Louis Vuitton store
(finally no need to queue at Xintiandi)

Definitely the new darling of the Nanjing West Road business district,
a quietly understated yet exquisitely designed hotel,
perfect for a city escape!
