Shanghai boutique hotels and accommodation

Shanghai is the largest city in China, so you might say it’s kind of a big deal. We certainly do. The financial hub is where business pros in the region—and from around the world—gather to make deals...but if the only deal you’re interested in is one on dumplings and grilled oysters, you’ll find plenty of them.

The neon signs and frenetic pace of Shanghai are complemented by tons of restaurants and street carts, so you can always refuel as you explore its awesomeness. Check out the view from the top of the Oriental Pearl Tower and then go for a tranquil walk at the Yu Garden. At the end of a long and fulfilling day, Shanghai boutique hotels give you plenty of space to relax and recharge.

What are you waiting for? Book with Wotif, and you’ll have plenty of cash left over for steamed buns in the morning, a Shanghai breakfast staple.

You’ll find heaps of places to stay in the city, including Pudi Boutique Hotel Fuxing Park Shanghai and URBN Hotel Shanghai. Unlike high-rise brand name hotels, boutique properties offer personalised service, fewer rooms and more privacy. Shanghai is busy enough—you don’t want to fight for coffee in the lobby, do you?

Wake up in your unique space, enjoy a delicious breakfast in your colourful surroundings, and then you’re off to the Bund promenade, then shopping along Nanjing Road. At the Jade Buddha Temple, the sculptures and red balloons of the monastery revitalise your energy, while the Shanghai Science and Technology Museum will ignite your curiosity.

You’re on holiday—who says you can’t have it all? You don’t have to choose between nature and big-city adventures. Shanghai flawlessly pairs Sheshan Basilica with Jinjiang Action Park, and hosts the serene Dongping National Forest Park along with the sky-high VUE Bar in the Hyatt. Go ahead, try to hit every hot spot you can—we dare you. Once you’ve exhausted yourself crafting the kind of holiday legends are made of, you can rest up in boutique accommodation in Shanghai.

All That and Dim Sum

Did we mention Shanghai is a good place to eat? Here, we’ll repeat ourselves: It’s a good place to eat. You can eat all the things. Braised eggplant, stinky tofu and roasted duck are just the beginning. Caramel strawberry kebabs and egg starts top off your meal. Sit down at a table in the Former French Concession, or grab something to go in Pudong.

You simply can’t go wrong, and boutique Shanghai hotels are the perfect place to sleep off your carb overload or simply change into looser pants. They won’t judge, and neither will we.
