Grandly marking the southern end of the Bund is the former Shanghai Club (1910), once the Bund’s most exclusive gentlemen’s hangout. The 20 original rooms house the Waldorf Astoria’s premium suites, six of which look out onto the Huangpu River. Behind this heritage building is a new hotel tower, with 252 state-of-the-art rooms.
Each room features touch digital controls, espresso machine, walk-in closet and a TV in the mirror.
There’s a pronounced New York–meets-Shanghai theme here, from the Peacock Lounge to the cocktail list at the Long Bar.
