Shanghai Hotels with Bars

"Overall Experience: My stay was defined by a feeling of tranquil escape. The hotel's greatest strength is its atmosphere. Being in a historic building tucked away in a quiet, leafy neighborhood just off the famous Nanjing Road created a perfect balance. I could easily walk to the buzz and shopping, but returned each time to a serene, garden-filled sanctuary. It felt more like a peaceful retreat than a standard city hotel. Service: The service was consistently attentive and polite. Staff were professional and quick to help with requests. The check-in and check-out process was smooth. While the service wasn't overly familiar, it was reliably good and matched the hotel's calm, understated style. I felt well taken care of. Facilities: The facilities are well curated but compact, focusing on quality over quantity."

"This hotel catches you a little off guard. When the car pulled up I thought I was in the wrong place. It gives very strong Air bnb/bed and breakfast vibes because that’s what it is. The ppl that run the place are very kind. The owner I assume, was very kind and very friendly. He went above and beyond to make my stay enjoyable. Even gave me cold medicine as I was struggling adjusting to Chinese fall weather and had a bad cold. The young man that worked evenings helped me order food and was a life saver because I had no way else to eat. The breakfast was minimal but tasty. Dumplings, boiled eggs and I think congee. I don’t like congee so I didn’t eat any. And I was always greeted with a smile from the lady cooking. The coffee isn’t great. Instant packets, very blah and nothing to drink really except water. There isn’t much nearby to do, it’s not walkable and so I would not stay if you’re looking for night life or convenience. But it’s a nice relaxing, quiet place to stay with a very comfy bed, nice tub, close enough to the airport and good shower pressure. I would definitely stay again."

"The room wasn't overly spacious, but the high floor offered a fantastic view of the river and the iconic 'Three Big Pieces' (Oriental Pearl TV Tower, Jin Mao Tower, and Shanghai World Financial Center). We had a clear panorama of Lujiazui's vibrant and modern architecture, and the night view was truly stunning. The breakfast on the 50th floor was excellent, and getting around was very convenient. Choosing this hotel for our trip was definitely the right decision, my parents were extremely satisfied."

"For two years in a row, we've chosen to stay at this hotel for Chinese New Year in Shanghai, and it truly lives up to its reputation as an established five-star property. Its location on Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street is incredibly convenient: the subway station is just a 5-minute walk away. Right across the street is The No.1 Department Store, and next door is the M&M's Flagship Store, offering plenty of shopping and dining options for the whole family. There are also countless authentic Shanghai eateries on nearby Jiujiang Road, Tianjin Road, Fujian Road, and Guangxi Road – so many choices you can't try them all! The hotel staff are warm and polite; the front desk even assigned us a room with a fantastic view, where we could see the 'Shanghai Trio' (Lujiazui skyscrapers), Nanjing Road, and the Huangpu River. Additionally, the cleaning staff are diligent and thorough; our room and bathroom were spotless. Staying at the Xinye Hotel made our Chinese New Year holiday feel extra joyful and comfortable. We'll definitely be back to this hotel on our future trips to Shanghai."

"The room is as excellent as described, with a luxurious yet comfortable vibe. The bathroom is smartly designed with three separate areas, which is very convenient. The family room's bed is exceptionally large. The service is fantastic – attentive without being intrusive. They're always ready to help whenever needed. The location is the best part, offering a peaceful retreat amidst a bustling area. It's just a short stroll to Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street and The Bund. Plus, there are plenty of dining options right nearby."

"The front desk staff were incredibly enthusiastic and proactively arranged a quiet room with a great view, just as I requested. The Club River View room was absolutely amazing, directly facing the Huangpu River and the Oriental Pearl TV Tower – the night view was so romantic! The housekeeping auntie decorated the room for our anniversary and even sent a cake, which was so thoughtful and heartwarming. The breakfast selection was rich, with both Chinese and Western options. The freshly made noodles and desserts were excellent! The overall service was meticulous and attentive. I'll definitely choose this place again next time! Club Lounge experience: Highly recommended! The juices were freshly squeezed, and breakfast was semi-buffet with delicious à la carte options."

"The hotel offers convenient scheduled shuttle services to and from Disney, the front desk staff are very friendly, and the breakfast is plentiful. They even have late-night snacks available when you return in the evening, which is a thoughtful touch. The room environment is also great. This will definitely be my top choice for my next Disney trip."

"Stayed for one night, looking to relax, swim at the hotel, and enjoy some food and drinks. When I got to the pool, I found it wasn't particularly clean. For a five-star hotel, it felt below standard. But what was even more disappointing was the service. I went to the front desk to report the pool's condition, and the male staff member just listened coldly, showing no reaction whatsoever. It wasn't until I asked him, 'Don't you need to record this feedback?' that he calmly asked what happened and said he'd report it. Shouldn't they be proactive about this? If I hadn't asked, would he have just brushed it off? Your service should match your prices and star rating. As a local, I just wanted a relaxing night. I've stayed at several hotels around Lujiazui, and none of them had service like this. They couldn't even manage basic hospitality."

"The hotel is showing its age, but the mattress really stands out. I slept wonderfully in the room, and the recreation area with the pool was a plus. While many hotels use King Koil mattresses, the one at Jinmao might be a higher-end model because it was significantly more comfortable. I didn't feel dry or hear much noise at night, though the soundproofing is a bit average. The pool and hot springs definitely felt grand, luxurious, and stylish. However, the bathroom vanity is truly outdated, and the teacups felt cheap. There was hair on one of the bathrobes, which they replaced for us. Overall, my experience was rather ordinary."

"I was in Shanghai Pudong for a business trip and stumbled upon this hotel – what a gem! The location is unbeatable, right near Century Avenue Metro Station, which has 4 lines, making it super convenient to get anywhere. The surrounding area is bustling with commercial activity, with shopping centers like 96 Square, Century Link, and Bailian Century Shopping Center all close by. I particularly enjoyed exploring Century Link. Although the hotel building might show some age, it's incredibly well-maintained and very clean. The rooms are also exceptionally spacious, far surpassing what you'd find in a budget hotel. Plus, the service at this established star-rated hotel is truly commendable; they were always eager to help. This will definitely be my go-to hotel for future business trips to Shanghai."
