Anandi Hotel Shanghai: The Secret to a Good Night's Sleep and Restful Slumber is Here

As one of Shanghai's few healing resort-style hotels, Anandi stands out with its distinctive style and has become the hotel I visit most frequently in Shanghai. Opened in 2018, it is located in the Hongqiao hub area of Shanghai, built along the Suzhou River, and is also a member of the Liding World Hotel Group. "Anandi" means "infinite joy after body and mind balance," with health, healing, and wellness running throughout the entire hotel. The moment you step into the hotel, you can smell the unique fragrance of Thai lemongrass, instantly refreshing your mind and relaxing your tense nerves. The overall style of the hotel is understated and elegant. Two buildings—the hotel and Hengyuexin House—face each other, forming the shape of a "Tai Chi Yin-Yang fish," full of architectural aesthetics. This design is simply amazing. In terms of dining, the hotel offers a wide variety of choices. The Chinese restaurant serves modern Cantonese and local Shanghai cuisine with authentic flavors; the Western restaurant’s buffet is nutritious, and the à la carte dishes are equally delicious; there is also the Zhushan Japanese restaurant, where you can enjoy authentic Japanese cuisine—every meal is a delight for the taste buds. The hotel’s workshop classes are worth mentioning, with a wide range including singing bowls, yoga, meditation, Tai Chi, Pilates, and more. Guests can join after check-in, and the butler will assist with scanning QR codes to book classes. A charging station for hardworking people, Anandi is one of Shanghai’s top healing hotels. As one of the leading wellness hotels in the city, the Anandi experience is quite worth it. Check-in starts the healing ritual with an Ayurvedic constitution test that matches you with a personalized wristband. The three colors—wind, fire, and water—correspond to different health teas, adding a nice sense of ceremony. Room details delight the detail-oriented: choose from 15 types of functional pillows, walk barefoot on nano-energy flooring (though the effects are unclear), and enjoy turndown service with constitution-based light snacks, which are reasonably portioned. Outside the window, the bright lights of Trip.com headquarters shine. Hardworking guests can soak in a medicinal bath while watching the overtime scene, doubling the healing effect. Breakfast with freshly squeezed fruit and vegetable juices plus exquisite cold dishes truly won my heart. At 1,500 RMB per night including breakfast for two, it offers good value for Shanghai.
