The Seagull Regent, a romance unique to Shanghai

· As the morning mist lingers over the Huangpu River and the Bund's clock strikes seven, standing at the confluence of Suzhou Creek and the Huangpu River, gazing at this white sail-like structure, all the sentiments of the "Magic City" slowly unfold—the "Seagull" spreads its wings as the "Regent" returns. · Unlike other luxury hotels boasting the Bund skyline, the Seagull Regent exudes a quieter, more elegant charm, with an unshakable pride that remains steadfast through the tides. As the predecessor of the Seagull Hotel, it has stood by the Huangpu River for over three decades, witnessing the rise and fall of old Shanghai. Its style withstands scrutiny. · The 80-square-meter Seagull Suite offers sweeping views of North Bund, from the walk-in balcony in the living room to the 180-degree panoramic bedroom and the bathroom space. Every detail, from the layout to the furnishings, radiates luxury and sophistication. I adore the living room design—where French romance meets Eastern elegance. The walk-in, pure white walk-in closet balances aesthetics, functionality, and privacy. The intricate patterns on the sofa cushions mirror the ornate details of the lobby's chandeliers. Small touches speak volumes, like the Amazon green marble sink countertop, its clarity effortlessly dissolving the haze of fatigue. Raising a glass of welcome champagne with my loved one, we watch the sunset paint the Huangpu River in hues of gold... As night falls, the Conde Bar terrace beckons, where a signature cocktail and the famed apricot parfait create a magical ambiance. The tender, juicy M5 beef fillet and the smoky flavors of charcoal-grilled lobster delight the palate. With the river view so stunning and the neon lights across the shore so dazzling, even a single candle on our table makes for a romantic toast. · The Magic City belongs to no one, but for now, you can briefly claim the Bund as your own. Like blossoms on the sea, the Seagull Regent weaves a beautiful dream for travelers resting within its embrace. ·
