Hotel Indigo Shanghai On The Bund, an IHG Hotel

Right on the end of the Bund so a bit of a walk. Great view from our room looking at all the barges but obviously not all rooms have a river view. 20th corner room was fabulous! Average breakfast, hubby loved the Asian breakfast but I found the cooked breakfast especially the omelet to be inconsistent every day, ingredients seemed to be lost in translation, some days my omelet was just egg either no ingredients. Enjoyed the link grateful juice! Bathroom facilities were fabulous. Our room was a good size. Enjoyed the chairs overlooking the river. Fridge was nice. Tea, coffee facilities in room. We enjoyed our stay but don’t think we would stay here again. Had a few issues with front of staff! I’d stay closer to Center next time!!

We had a deluxe river view king room on a High floor over looking the bustling Bund area. Just a short walk to the Oriental Pearl and all the sites and the night lights from the skyscrapers. The People’s monument was a 15 minute walk away. Ther room was so large with a self flushing heated seat toilet, lovely slippers and robes and toiletries and complimentary water for the hot climate outside. Taxi’s are electric and can be booked by the multi lingual reception staff who go out of the way to please and help with any questions. The staff helped us get into our room early as we arrived from the UK on an over night flight. The bed was divine so comfortable and showering overlooking the river was another highlight. There was a rooftop bar and it was easy to walk over to the Yuen garden area for street food or use the restaurants in the BFC area opposite. With the help of the reception staff booking taxis in Sanskrit helping us with set up Alipay we managed to negotiate our way round Shanghai easily. English was used by all the tourist sector workers and young people so we felt really safe and assured. The experience of being in Shanghai and staying here was a blessing. We couldn’t have chosen better for our needs than this.

- Luxurious entry, help with the luggage. - We had beautiful river view of Shanghai Tower & co that we couldn’t get enough from. - The room was beautiful and we had our own walk-in closet. - We loved the spacious bathroom with own TV and the different shower rain modes - At the entrance there was room for cars to drop off and pick-up, perfect as taxi spot. - Great, friendly day staff where we could communicate with and fast service. - Great location

Staff were really helpful and friendly, all staff from front desk to housekeeping and bar staff was patient and helpful throughout our stay, especially Lyna who was very accommodating and thoughtful. Location is conviently located towards the end of the bund which made for a lovely walk in the evening. Great views from the room and facilities across the hotel, the bar has great vibes and not crowded at all on a Saturday night which I personally loved. Also really appreciated the decor which was beautifully curated and a lovely change from the common mainstream hotel decor popular in recent years. Will probably be my go to hotel in Shanghai now.

A nice, very well equipped and cozy, boutique style room, surprisingly original and very complete. Location at the Bund is ok, walking distance from some of my favorite restaurants. But the hotel itself has an excellent restaurant too, besides a nice rooftop bar. The location also convenient because of the easy way out to both airports Pudong and Hongqiao.
