Shanghai hotels

Shanghai is the largest city in China and offers myriad attractions for travellers. Deciding what not to miss will be your biggest challenge. For a glimpse of Shanghai’s history visit Longhua Temple or the ancient water town of Zhujiajiao. Explore Shanghai Museum or marvel at the futuristic skyline from The Bund or Shanghai World Financial Center. The Oriental Pearl Radio & TV Tower is another must-see in Shanghai’s skyline. Fuxing Park is a great place to go for a stroll and get a sense of street-level Shanghai. Don’t forget to fit in a shopping trip on Nanjing Road, the main commercial thoroughfare of the city, and drink tea at one of Shanghai’s many teahouses.

Where to stay

Shanghai can be roughly divided into two parts: Puxi west of the river and Pudong in the east. Most large Shanghai hotels are located in Puxi. Hotels in Shanghai are generally not cheap, but there are always budget options available. Whether you are interested in 5-star hotels, resorts, or serviced apartments, make sure your accommodation is close to a metro station so you can navigate the city easily.

Getting there

Most international visitors arrive at Shanghai Pudong International Airport (PVG). The airport lies 40 km east of the city on Metro Line 2, but you can also take a shuttle, bus, or taxi to get downtown. Taking the high-speed magnetic Maglev Train to Longyan Station Rd before switching to the metro is another impressive option.
