Waldorf Astoria Shanghai on the Bund (Shanghai, China) Verified Reviews | Tablet Hotels

"It seems they do still make 'em like they used to. The Waldorf Astoria Shanghai on the Bund is pure classic luxury, vintage 2011. It was a contender for the city’s best hotel from the moment it opened its doors, for there was a lot behind those doors: a soaring main hall awash in white marble, a staff that’s the epitome of discreet and attentive service, a set of restaurants that have quickly come to be regarded as top Shanghai dining destinations, and 260 elegant, oversize rooms that pull off the seemingly impossible feat of combining old-world opulence with a light, modern touch. And where better than the Bund, with its endless parade of historic architecture, for a hotel that’s something of a throwback to a past golden age of hospitality." - Tablet Hotels
