Spa Hotels in Shanghai

Summary: The worst service I've ever encountered in a hotel of this caliber. I stayed for 2 days. On the first night when I checked in, I noticed there was no doorman at the hotel entrance to open car doors or help with luggage. I asked the front desk if no one was on duty at night. The manager, who had a great attitude, said someone might have been out delivering something, and that it was quieter at night but they would improve. (He had a very good attitude and offered me breakfast, though I didn't eat it as I don't usually have breakfast). Then I asked the front desk for a latex pillow. I waited for half an hour upstairs, but it wasn't delivered. When I called, they said they forgot. Next, while looking for a charging port by the bed, I knocked over a glass and got really annoyed as to why the glass was placed by the bedside late at night (this was my fault, as I was quite angry at the time). The manager, with a great attitude, came to help clean it up, and I even went to the front desk the next day to apologize. Second day: I left my earphones, cigarettes, and lighter in the car. I messaged the driver to arrange for the concierge to bring them up. They were never brought up until the next day when I was checking out to go to the airport. I asked the driver why they hadn't been brought up, and the driver said he had given them to the concierge last night. I went to ask: the concierge said they forgot to deliver them. By the way: when I returned to the hotel on the second night, I still noticed there was no doorman or security. Car doors and luggage were unattended. I really don't know! What exactly is the concierge at this hotel doing! What are they responsible for!!! Facilities: The facilities are very good, the rooms are large, and the walk-in closet is excellent. I usually try out the pool and gym at every hotel, but I wasn't in the mood this time. I won't be coming back.

am writing to file a formal complaint about my stay at the Ritz-Carlton Shanghai. The experience was absolutely unacceptable: · The plumbing was a disaster — the toilet wouldn't flush properly. · The water temperature in the shower was completely unadjustable. I spent 15 minutes twisting the tap all the way to cold, but the water never changed temperature — it stayed scalding hot the entire time. · No basic sofa or settee in the room — nowhere to sit or lie down except the bed. And this wasn't a standard room — this was a suite. · The appliances and furniture look at least 20 years old, with visible signs of wear and tear everywhere. · I left my phone to charge overnight — I specifically checked that the charger was working before going to bed. Woke up in the morning to find my phone hadn't charged at all. The power outlets work intermittently at best. · The Wi-Fi was terrible — slow and with extremely low data throughput. It kept buffering and disconnecting, making it impossible to get any work done or even browse normally. · No razor provided in the bathroom. · The hairdryer had no attachments — not a single nozzle or diffuser. And to make things even worse, there wasn't a single power outlet in the bathroom. So in a 5-star hotel, I had to dry my hair next to the bed, with no mirror nearby. Absolutely ridiculous. · The breakfast was very mediocre — just a plain omelet with bacon, and they still managed to ruin it. To top it all off, I decided to order room service. The delivery driver dropped off my food at the reception desk at 10:20 PM and sent me a photo as proof. Do you know how long I had to wait for someone to bring it up to my room? 40 minutes. I went down to the front desk twice to ask about my order, and no one even apologized. We're in the 21st century — most hotels have delivery robots that bring food to your door in 5 minutes. Here, I paid three or four times as much and received this level of service. It's simply insulting. I have already canceled my second night and am checking out early. For this kind of money and with this kind of service, this stay was a complete disgrace. I expect a substantial refund for the night I actually spent here.

Beyond exceptional service! Incredible atmosphere, modern facilities, and huge thanks to Aaron, Silvia, and Tay! Five stars are truly not enough for H+ Hotel Shanghai, Pudong! From the very moment you step inside, the hotel smells delicious, fresh, and welcoming. The entire property radiates a sense of peace and tranquility, making it a wonderful retreat—especially considering we had to check in very late. Having complimentary tea, juice, and water right at the entrance was lovely, but it was the incredible team that made our stay unforgettable. 1. Arron's unmatched kindness and care: Special recognition goes to Arron. When I arrived late at night suffering from a severe cold, Arron didn't just point me to a pharmacy—he searched for an open one, walked me there at midnight, and translated everything so I could get the right medicine. The next day, he even checked in on me to ask how I was feeling and if I needed anything else. That genuine care is something I will never forget. 2. Silvia's incredible attention to detail (Saved my Invisalign!): I also want to give a massive thank you to Silvia. Amidst all the rushing and stress with a family emergency, I accidentally left my Invisalign retainers in a glass cup in the room. My family thought for sure they had been thrown away by housekeeping. When I called back, Silvia immediately checked and sent me a photo showing they were kept completely safe in the cup! Taking such care not to throw away personal items in glasses shows incredible delicacy and respect for guests' belongings. 3. Next-level facilities, room details & Circadian Lighting suggestion: The gym is great, and the self-service laundry features state-of-the-art washing machines with technology I had never seen before—it really shows how advanced China is right now! The spa looked beautiful and high-end (though a bit on the pricier side). The beds are extremely comfortable and a good size for four adults. Feature feedback / Tip on windowless rooms: The artificial window lighting in these rooms is fantastic because it genuinely looks like natural daylight! However, since the beds are so comfortable and the room can get pitch-black, it’s easy to oversleep when you want to wake up early to explore Shanghai. It would be an amazing feature if the hotel could automate these artificial light panels to turn on gradually with the sunrise to support guests' circadian rhythms! Conclusion: Wonderful modern facilities, a peaceful atmosphere, and most importantly, people like Arron, Silvia, and Tay who make this place truly special. I would return here in a heartbeat! 服务超越满分！环境极其舒适，设施先进，特别感谢 Arron、Silvia 和 Tay！ 给五星好评都远远不够！一走进 上海浦东H+酒店 的大堂，就能闻到非常香甜、清新的香氛，整个酒店弥漫着一种平静与宁和的氛围，让人瞬间放松下来。大堂常备的茶水、果汁和矿泉水非常贴心，特别是我们两次深夜办理入住，前台都安排得无微不至。 1. 感谢 Arron 无微不至的照顾： 特别要表扬 Arron。我深夜入住时得了重感冒，非常难受，Arron不仅帮我查了药店，甚至在午夜亲自陪我走到药店并全程帮忙翻译买药。更让人暖心的是，第二天他还不忘关切地问我身体好些没有、还需要什么帮助。这种真诚的关怀实在太难得了！ 2. 感谢 Silvia 极其细致的服务（帮我找回隐形牙套！）： 还要特别感谢 Silvia。由于当时家里突发紧急情况，手忙脚乱中我把自己的隐形牙套（Invisalign）遗留在了房间的水杯里。家人都以为保洁人员肯定当垃圾扔掉了，没想到我打电话过去时，Silvia 立刻帮我确认并拍了照片，牙套被原封不动地妥善留着！保洁人员没有随意清理杯中物品，这种细心和对客人财物的尊重真的让我太惊喜了。 3. 设施体验与无窗房“生物钟照明”小建议： 健身房非常棒，自助洗衣房配置了超现代化的顶尖科技洗衣设备，有些功能我以前从未见过，让人直观感受到了当今中国科技的发展与便利！Spa区域看起来非常高端优雅（虽然价格稍微偏贵了一点点）。床铺极其舒适，尺寸足够四位成年人使用。 关于无窗房的体验与建议： 房间里的模拟窗户灯光设计得太棒了，关灯后视觉效果和自然光一模一样！但因为床实在太舒服，如果关掉灯整个房间会完全漆黑，对于想早起探索上海的游客来说很容易睡过头。如果酒店未来能将这套模拟日光系统自动化，让灯光顺应外界日出时间自动缓缓亮起，帮助调节客人的昼夜生物钟（昼夜节律），那就真的太完美了！ 总结： 环境温馨平静，设施现代化，最重要的是有像 Arron、Silvia 和 Tay 这样优秀的员工，让这家酒店闪闪发光。强烈推荐，下次来还会选择这里！

Due to the recent Typhoon Dolphin, I opted for a staycation at Kerry Hotel Pudong by Shangri-La. Upon arrival, there was no assistance from the bell staff or porters. During checkin, The receptionist handed me a small slip of paper which, at first glance, I assumed was some sort of advisory regarding Typhoon Dolphin. Upon closer inspection, I realised that this tiny, thin and flimsy piece of paper was actually the Kerry Club welcome letter. I found this genuinely surprising. A Club welcome letter is one of the first touchpoints for premium-room guests and would normally be presented on proper stationery. Instead, this looked more like a piece of scrap office paper I would use to test whether a pen still had ink. More importantly, the receptionist did not explain my Club benefits. There was no explanation of breakfast hours, breakfast venue, hotel facilities, checkout time, Club Lounge opening hours or other Club privileges. There was not even a simple introduction along the lines of, “You have been assigned a park-facing room on the Club floor.” As a result, when I entered my room on Level 25, I was initially rather confused. My first impression was that the room felt noticeably dated and I genuinely could not tell whether I had actually been assigned a Club Room. I was not sure if it was one. There was no Club welcome letter placed on the desk, no welcome amenity and no Nespresso machine. In its place were several packets of instant coffee. Even the complimentary bottled water was the basic Coca-Cola-owned Chun Yue (纯悦) brand. At that point, the sign along the corridor was the clearest indication I had received that this was a Club-level stay. Not a great first impression. However, it did get better from there, since I discovered that John Masters toiletries were available in the bathroom, which were nice to use, and I was in fact placed in a high floor room that overlooked century park and I could see the lovely view of the 3 iconic skyscrapers of Shanghai. The housekeeping team were amazing, the longest I waited was just 30 minutes after I had requested items, and they were checking in on whether I needed anything during the turndown service, they were also incredibly friendly and polite. The room was also immaculately cleaned. Truly 5 stars! The lounge was also great - evidenced by the amount of people using it during my 3 nights here at this hotel- the lounge was always busy. The evening cocktail service served beyond the usual typical hors d'oeuvres, and was more like a simple dinner buffet. The main dish on my last night - Beef Biryani was really good, and quite authentic in my opinion. It was good by club lounge food standards. The club lounge staff were also excellent. I remember a Caucasian male staff member — unfortunately, I did not get his name or position — who spoke fluent English, answered my queries clearly and resolved any issues I had promptly. Kudos to him! The gym was so huge and well equipped that I thought I had walked into an expensive commercial gym a la FitnessFirst or Virgin Active. The pool was also large with 5 swimming lanes. Back to the room. The bed was quite hard. On the positive side, the air-conditioning remained strong, quiet and effective despite the age of the hotel. The bathroom was probably where the age of the room was most apparent. There was no rain shower or bidet. Some of the floor tiles near the entrance also appeared to be loose, as I could hear and feel slight movement beneath them whenever I walked in and out. Check-out was brisk and straightforward. This time, a member of staff proactively assisted me with my luggage, loaded my bags into my DiDi and helped with the car door. Overall, I believe Kerry Hotel Pudong remains a good choice for business travellers who need to be close to the Shanghai New International Expo Centre (SNIEC), Huamu or other parts of Pudong. However, I would rate its value for money as merely average.

An absolutely wonderful experience! **Facilities:** Even though it's an older hotel, I was initially worried the facilities might be outdated. But when I arrived, I realized there was no need to worry at all. The overall vibe is one of rich heritage and understated luxury, without feeling old-fashioned. I personally loved it. **Hygiene:** The hygiene was excellent; I didn't notice any issues. **Environment:** Simply fantastic. Both the hotel itself and the guests staying there collectively create an atmosphere that made me feel it was truly great value for money. This is a hotel with genuinely sincere service and a superb location, well worth experiencing. I absolutely loved it.

The experience at Banyan Tree Shanghai on the Bund far exceeded my expectations! The room faced the Oriental Pearl TV Tower, and the night view was stunning. I could admire Shanghai's vibrant cityscape right from my bed. The service was incredibly attentive; every staff member had a warm smile and responded to requests super fast. The biggest surprise was that takeaways could be delivered directly to the room, which is perfect for a lazy person like me. From the view and service to the small details, everything was impeccable. Definitely worth another visit!

Came to Waldorf Astoria Shanghai on the Bund after hearing great things, and the overall experience was a pleasant surprise. The hardware, as expected, was exceptional; the old building had plenty of character, and the room was very well maintained. I must give a special shout-out to concierges Aaron and Vicky. They patiently answered all my questions before my trip, helped arrange transportation upon arrival, and thoughtfully provided tips for exploring the surrounding area. When a minor issue came up, they quickly helped coordinate a solution, handling everything efficiently and thoughtfully. This wasn't just standard service; they genuinely cared about the guests. It was a very comfortable stay, highly recommended.

The rooms at Andaz Xintiandi are decent; you can tell the older hotel is being maintained, and it's not in terrible condition. For those considering staying here, pay close attention, as this is my first negative review this year, and I'll objectively explain where the service falls short. Upon arriving at Andaz, the doorman didn't proactively greet me when I got out of the car, nor did he help with my luggage. Only after I took my bags out of the trunk did he symbolically come over to take them, without saying a word or greeting me. As soon as I entered the building, he just dropped my luggage and went back to the door? I was utterly baffled. For a hotel supposedly on par with Grand Hyatt, is this the first impression they want to make? The overall check-in process was fine, though it felt cramped and uncomfortable, with no available seating. The second point that made me extremely uncomfortable was when I went downstairs to swim. There was no one at the gym reception to greet me. A man in a suit, who looked like a manager, glanced at me when I stood at the reception desk, then pretended not to see me and continued talking to other staff. I watched as I was completely ignored. Is your chat more important than a guest's needs? If I hadn't raised my voice to ask where the pool was, they wouldn't have bothered with me at all. My enthusiasm for swimming was completely gone. The pool was also full of unruly kids, hogging space and splashing everywhere, and the lifeguard did nothing. If it weren't for the decent front desk staff, I wouldn't give any points for service. Friends looking for comfort should definitely avoid this place. Based on my experience this time, I will absolutely not choose this hotel again, and probably not even any Andaz hotel!

The river view is absolutely stunning, with large windows directly overlooking the Huangpu River – a top-notch view! There's a huge 3-meter bed, and a long sofa chair by the window that could easily sleep two more people. This room would be super comfortable for a family trip. Both the shower and bathtub in the bathroom are great, with excellent water pressure. The staff were all very warm and helpful, and everything was just perfect. I'll definitely be back!

This hotel was great the service was amazing for the price , the staff were amazing and very very helpful , especially XiaoDing she gave us a complimentry breakfast for free! I aslo had proplems with a delivery app and the staff helped and ordered for me ! The best hotel!
