The room was very comfortable, with a minimalist yet slightly luxurious design. The color palette looked elegant and soft, and everything was spotlessly clean. The natural light was excellent, with large floor-to-ceiling windows—you could see the river and city views right from bed. The bedding was soft and I slept…
The Peninsula Shanghai truly lives up to its reputation as the top luxury hotel on the Bund. The location is excellent, right next to the Waibaidu Bridge, and the river-view rooms offer sweeping views of the Lujiazui skyline. The Art Deco retro decor has a refined, high-end feel, and the guest rooms and bathrooms are…
The River View Suite at The Peninsula Shanghai is undoubtedly a benchmark for luxury stays in this dazzling metropolis.

Good to know
Does this hotel accept foreign guests?
Star-rated hotels — especially chains and anything four-star and above — almost always register foreign passports as routine. Smaller local hotels sometimes lack the foreign-guest license. Since 2024 hotels officially may not refuse foreign guests: if refused, call or SMS 12345. Book refundable when unsure.
How do I get there?
Show the big Chinese name above to any taxi or DiDi driver, or tap Find in Amap for turn-by-turn navigation. The Chinese name is what drivers read — English names are rarely recognized.
What does the star rating mean?
China's official hotel star rating is assessed by tourism authorities (GB/T 14308 standard): ★★★ = comfortable and reliable, ★★★★ = high-end with full services, ★★★★★ = luxury. It certifies quality, not foreign-guest policy — that's why we flag it separately.
How do I pay there?
Set up Alipay or WeChat Pay with your foreign Visa/Mastercard before you fly — QR payments work at virtually every hotel. Foreign credit cards are accepted at the front desk of most star-rated hotels. Full payments guide →
