Shanghai Bund Waldorf Astoria Hotel: A luxurious choice with a century of history In the heart of Shanghai's Bund, the Shanghai Bund Waldorf Astoria Hotel occupies a unique position. It is located at No. 2 Bund, and consists of a historic building with a rich history and a modern building with a contemporary feel. Historical heritage and architectural beauty The historic building was built in 1910 and served as the Shanghai Club, a club for British expatriates in Shanghai, with a deep historical heritage. Its exterior is in a typical British retro style, with elegant Ionic columns and a Mansard roof. The Baroque-style lookout towers at the north and south ends of the building add a touch of solemnity and grandeur. Stepping into the hotel from the bustling Bund, you will be instantly transported back to the Shanghai Club of a century ago, and the historical weight will be overwhelming. The lobby of the new building is meticulously decorated in a neoclassical style, with beige marble as the main material, creating a low-key yet elegant atmosphere. The wide courtyard connecting the old and new buildings is ingeniously designed with an openwork structure, and you can overlook the Baiweiyuan Restaurant in the sunken area from the courtyard. At the end of the courtyard, there is a piano. The melodious piano music in the afternoon, the elegant environment, and the well-dressed service staff create a scene reminiscent of a European aristocratic banquet. Comfortable rooms and thoughtful layout 🏘️The Hui Zhong Suite I booked needs to be accessed through the courtyard. The Hui Zhong Building has five floors, and only the third and fourth floors are guest rooms. The number of rooms is limited, and there are few guests, so it is very quiet. In the room, light and shadow are cast on the black and white marble floor tiles through the thin curtains, showing a classical charm. The suite is consistent with the style of the Hui Zhong Building, and the decoration is luxurious. The retro crystal chandelier exudes a soft glow, and the art paintings on the wall add a cultural atmosphere. The exquisite decorative fireplace and lacquered wine cabinet, paired with dark walnut flooring and silk-faced wooden furniture, showcase the unique charm of the old money style. The white walls and the green plants outside the window complement each other, making the space atmosphere more elegant. There are bedposts at the four corners of the bed, and white gauze curtains are hung, and the soft furnishings add a warm atmosphere to the room. 🛌The bathroom is spacious, with marble floors and walls, and a retro clawfoot bathtub paired with an exquisite dressing table, showing a luxurious feel. The hotel uses Aesop as its amenities, which are of high quality. The room cleverly blends Chinese and Western aesthetics, with traditional Chinese elements such as porcelain, Chinese paintings, and embroidery, as well as Western elements such as fireplaces, oil paintings, and crystal chandeliers. The combination of these elements creates a unique style. The free mini bar has a relatively conventional selection, but it can meet basic needs. Featured dining and excellent service The most attractive part of the hotel is the lobby of the Hui Zhong Building, which is exquisitely decorated and impressive. In the lobby, eight pairs of Tuscan columns spanning two floors support the entire space, and the arched glass ceiling and ornate crystal chandeliers complement each other, further enhancing the visual effect. On one side of the lobby, there is an old-fashioned triangular elevator, which adds a retro charm to the lobby. Breakfast is served in the Baiweiyuan Restaurant on the first basement floor. It is a semi-a la carte and semi-buffet style, with a wide variety of dishes to meet the needs of different guests. Suite guests can also visit the Si Ju Lounge on the third floor of the hotel. The lounge continues the style of the Hui Zhong Building and offers basic drinks and snacks. It is a great place to relax and chat with friends. The hotel's service is standardized, and the room service responds quickly to solve guests' problems. 🧹The soundproofing effect is excellent, and there is almost no noise from the outside world in the room. The hygiene is also well maintained, and the room and public areas are clean and tidy. 💗Other tips: It is highly recommended to book rooms with the word "Hui Zhong" in the Hui Zhong Building, so that you can better experience the unique charm and grandeur of the century-old Hui Zhong Building. During your stay, you can go to the courtyard to listen to the piano performance in the afternoon and enjoy a leisurely time.
