Waldorf Astoria Shanghai on the Bund

DESCRIPTION

Located at No. 2 The Bund in the former Shanghai Club, the Waldorf Astoria Shanghai now occupies the building built in 1910, and the adjacent new Waldorf Astoria Tower. The Tower rises 24 floors, allowing guests spectacular views of The Bund, the Huangpu River and the Pudong skyline. Connecting the two buildings is Peacock Alley, an elegant promenade of restaurants and lounges overlooking a landscaped courtyard. Just like its New York counterpart, the 260-room Shanghai hotel combines vintage European-style splendour with true Waldorf service and classic comfort. An array of three restaurants, two lounges and a bar epitomize fine dining and chic socializing. There's all-day dining and authentic Chinese and French specialities. For light meals, meetings-over-drinks and afternoon teas, the two lounges and Peacock Alley are ideal. The Long Bar, the once the longest bar counter in the Far East, is perfect for business entertaining and relaxing in the evenings.

FEATURES

The Waldorf Astoria has occupied the historic No. 2 since late 2010. In the Long Bar, the elegant hallways, the old reading room turned Salon de Ville, the loft space, now Wei Jing Ge restaurant, and the billiard room that today is the Pelham’s restaurant, life was breathed into every element without compromising historical integrity.

LOCATION

The hotel is at the heart of The Bund. It's easily accessible by subway and directly linked to Yan’an Road, which tunnels under the Huangpu River to Lujiazui. Nanjing Road, a centre of retail for more than a century, is within walking distance.

FACILITIES

For guests seeking to relax, the Waldorf Spa is located in the Tower and features an indoor heated lap pool with lounge area, and a steam room and sauna. Skilled consultants offer a range of premium health and beauty treatments. The Fitness Centre boasts state-of-the-art equipment. The hotel hosts conferences and meetings. The historic European-style ballroom offers configurations for large or small events, with floor-to-ceiling French windows.

SERVICES

The hotel is commited to its motto “Live Unforgettable” and seize every precious moment in life. From the concierge to the service staff, every employee plays an integral role in ensuring guests have an unforgettable stay. No detail is overlooked.
