About Le Royal Meridien Shanghai

Situated in an important central neighbourhood, and within walking distance of the Bund, Le Royal Meridien Shanghai is a sleek high-rise property offering stylish luxury with exceptional views over the energetic city.

The rooms have the refined elegance typical of today’s luxury business hotels. Even the standard rooms are fairly spacious, and all feature luxury linens, ergonomic work stations and all the other amenities you’ll need.

Business guests have a full business centre available to assist them in their endeavours, while those looking to keep in shape have a fully equipped fitness centre onsite.

There are an incredible seven in-house restaurants and bars. They serve top quality dishes, and specialise in a variety of Western and Asian cuisines. There are also mind boggling array of dining options right outside.

The Bund, perhaps the city’s most famous riverside walk, from where the impressive skyscrapers across the water can be viewed, is just 400 yards from Le Royal Meridien Shanghai.

Positive Reviews

Perfect location close to the Bund

This was perhaps what guests most liked about the hotel. They mentioned that the hotel was very central, so making it relatively easy to get around to points of interest and business locations. Often mentioned was the Bund, which was said to be just a short walk away.

Terrific views from the upper storeys

It seems that it was the guests with rooms higher up in the building that were happiest of all those staying at the hotel. They reported that the views were truly exceptional and really gave one an idea of the size, scale and impressiveness of China's commercial capital.

The Hu Bar

A number of guests mentioned that the hotel's rooftop bar, The Hu Bar, was especially stylish, and of course offered drop dead gorgeous views out over the city.

Negative Reviews

In-house dining expensive and poor value

The majority of guests were not entirely happy with their dining experiences at the hotel. Guest after guest mentioned that the prices charged were completely out of sync with any good independent restaurant in Shanghai. They also felt that the food and service was somewhat lacking, leading them to conclude they had received very poor value for money.

Lack of English speaking abilities

Many English speaking guests, and those using it as their second language, reported that the hotel's staff did not have very good English skills, making it difficult for guests to understand and be understood.

Complicated lifts

A simply remarkable number of guests reported that the lift system seemed very complicated, requiring two separate lifts to access the rooms. The reason for this design did not seem readily apparent.
