The most historically layered luxury hotel in Shanghai — Waldorf Astoria on the Bund, occupying the 1911 former Shanghai Club (the most exclusive men's club in colonial Asia) plus a new contemporary tower. The Long Bar (the longest bar in Asia in 1911) has been painstakingly restored. Yi Long Court has Michelin-starred Shanghainese cuisine. Six dining venues total.
Why We Chose It
The most historically layered luxury hotel in Shanghai — occupying the 1911 former Shanghai Club on the Bund. The 34-meter Long Bar, heritage suites, and Bund promenade views. History and luxury in one address.
What Stands Out
- 1911 Baroque Revival building: the former Shanghai Club, most exclusive club in colonial Asia
- Long Bar: restored to its 1911 glory — once the longest bar in Asia
- Yi Long Court: Michelin-starred Shanghainese cuisine
- Six dining venues including a brunch that is considered among Shanghai's best
- 260 rooms combining heritage wing and modern tower
