[2025 Shanghai Stay] Travel Guide for ZHotel The Somekh Building (Updated Mar)

This hotel is located right next to the main street of the Bund, and you can see the Oriental Pearl from the balcony. 🏨 If you request in-room dining, they will bring you a stylishly presented breakfast plate at the time you request, so it's popular to take a photo on the balcony with it ☕️ The room and balcony are small and the rooms are expensive, but it's Shanghai, and it's on the Bund, so it can't be helped! Let's just accept it as the price of the view. By the way, the breakfast plate alone is quite filling, but if you are staying for multiple nights, it is recommended to only eat in the room on the day you shoot on the balcony, and then eat as much as you want at the buffet on the lobby floor, as this will increase the variety and quantity of food. 🍳 The buffet restaurant also has a cute interior 🧡 . . . 📍Shanghai Bund ZHotel 📸The Bund View Terrace Double Bed Room 🗺️Shanghai, China 🕒Check in 14:00/Check out 12:00 💰RMB1700 #tripoverseastravel #Chinatourism #Shanghai

The Sassoon House was built in 1918 and has a history of over 100 years. It is a protected building. It later became the only hotel under the Artyzen brand that is housed in a historic building. The architectural design of the entire building is truly beautiful. The restaurant on the second floor is surrounded by various flowers, and the restaurant's various well-designed contours and flowers complement each other, making the entire space beautiful. The upper floors are the guest rooms, and each stairwell has a small design. The elevator is also very retro. The hotel rooms are relatively small, and the interior decoration style is simple and fashionable. Because the entire building has a long history and there are layout issues, it is understandable that the rooms are small. In summary, it is worth experiencing.

Enjoy the first-line view of the Bund Here you can take the same photos as celebrities like Yu Shuxin!! Last time I came to Shanghai for a street tour, I was deeply attracted by this location. At that time, Sassoon was still under renovation, and I could only bribe the staff to come up. Now as long as you stay in the hotel, you can enjoy it!!! The terrace of the front desk/restaurant is this classic location, it's so beautiful no matter how you shoot it, with both the Oriental Pearl and the Bund streets, it's so beautiful What's important is that it's only a 5-minute walk to the river, very suitable for business travel and living~ And next to it is the Bund Source and the Peninsula Hotel, there are many delicious foods! Super delicious breakfast When I booked, I was too anxious to choose breakfast, and the front desk guy actually gave me two 88-a-day breakfasts for four days... this service is too great! I originally thought that Atour was a chain express hotel and didn't want to come, I didn't expect this hotel to be so great The hotel breakfast I encountered has two types, one is Benedict Egg, and the other is a full English meal. Friends who don't know thought I went to a brunch shop, it's really worth it |Living in a hundred years of history, the Sassoon Building was originally the Sassoon Bank Building, designed by a famous architect. The Baroque style of multi-curve carving combined with modern reinforced concrete craftsmanship, plus the vintage color that has experienced the wind and frost, it's really beautiful! Photography Holy Land The first and third floors are exhibition areas, with some paid art exhibitions. The decoration of other guest room areas is industrial style, you can take the vintage elevator, or climb the stairs, every corner of each floor will have beautiful ornaments and artworks.

Recently, I went on a Citywalk in Shanghai and visited the Shamei Building. Looking up at this century-old building from the sidewalk felt like visiting an old grandfather, as if it were telling its life story to the world. The Shamei Building was originally a bank and a foreign firm. After being acquired and preserved as a hotel, it was reopened to the public. The hotel retains its original features, and besides the restaurant balcony on the second floor where you can take photos, guests who choose a room with a balcony can step out and take pictures with a view facing the Pearl Tower.

Shanghai! The Bund! Just checked out of a budget hotel and already on to the next one level Stayed at a life-changing hotel with friends in Shanghai!! The hotel is within walking distance of Nanjing Road subway station, and is very close to the Bund and Nanjing Road. You can walk to both, making it a great citywalk hotel. You can see the Oriental Pearl Tower from the balcony. The hotel is in a century-old building, and the interior is beautifully decorated. There's a vintage elevator and a spiral staircase. The Bund View Terrace King Room has an amazing view, and you can see the Oriental Pearl Tower from it!! The standalone hotel has 7 floors. The first and second floors are a restaurant and a café, the third floor and above are the hotel, and the top floor is an art space and a bar. The restaurant on the second floor is worth mentioning. It's very vintage and the food is delicious.

ZHotel, a high-end, unique brand under the Atour Group, is both a continuation and an inheritance of Atour's legacy. Atour has set a commendable precedent, amassing a large number of loyal consumers. ZHotel is an extension of this, carrying the boundless imagination of the next generation of consumers for the hospitality industry. It is also committed to creating a hotel benchmark that the young Generation Z desires. The choice of the Sami Building is indeed sagacious, as it possesses unparalleled external conditions. Its geographical location is superior, the architecture is elegant and magnificent, and it has a profound historical accumulation, filled with irresistible storytelling. Coupled with the intelligent, lifestyle-oriented, and social young ecosystem advocated by ZHotel, it naturally integrates co-working spaces, bars, restaurants, and event spaces. The wrought-iron vintage elevator at the entrance is very appealing, instantly transporting you back to old Shanghai a century ago. The hotel lobby on the second floor is essentially a bar counter, a fusion of a bar and reception. You can check-in while shaking a cocktail bottle to the rhythm of the music. Haha, once you're here, let go of your age and socialize like the young folks! The rooms are small, but in order to incorporate all functionalities into the limited space, every piece of custom-made furniture is used to its fullest extent. The desk and washbasin are combined, the mirror cabinet holds more than meets the eye, and the built-in storage cabinet is fitted with a full-length mirror. The design is ingenious and modern, and although compact, it is full of style! Particularly noteworthy is the balcony adorned with black iron railings. Once you step onto it, the Oriental Pearl TV Tower, the Bund, Sichuan Middle Road, and the bustling Shanghai are all at your feet!

Standing on the hotel's terrace overlooking the Bund in Shanghai, Sichuan Road, and Beijing Road, it's like being in the streets of Paris. 🏨Hotel environment: The Shama Mansion was built in 1918 and has a history of over 100 years.
