Value9 mentions
- “There was a lot to love about this property. It is my favorite of the Hyatts in Shanghai (I have not yet visited the Grand Hyatt Shanghai) because it offers a great view, location, price point, and service.” 17
- “Considering that I paid a room rate of 1,320.00 yuan renminbi plus a service charge of 15 percent - or approximately $210.00 total - for the night reserved at the last minute for a spacious room on a high floor with a great view in a hotel within walking distance of the Bund, I suppose that room rate was a decent value.” 1
- “With a daily rate of ~HK$1560, obviously cash is the better option, but we were on a package rate anyway, which made the value exceptional.” 9
- “Not sure how I feel about a rebranding in whole or in part to Park Hyatt; this property has always hit the sweet spot for me in terms of pricing vs. quality.” 13
- “Pricing is often similar to flexible public rates, while including breakfast, a property credit, and better odds of an upgrade - which can meaningfully improve the overall value.” 18
- “With the fondue and delicious meat choices, I'd pay 200 yuan for the buffet, but I do think the price was a bit much (especially factoring in that tea at the Park Hyatt, which we had on our third day in Shanghai, was only CNY200 for two).” 9
- “While I was glad that Facebook, Twitter and Instagram (particularly the latter) were available at the hotel, the WiFi just wasn't consistent enough to be worth the amount of money I paid.” 9
- “While that hotel is great, it's Hyatt on the Bund across the river that flies under the radar and delivers superior value.” 17
- “I'd say this hotel is worth 800-1000 rmb a night, above that not worth it as there are better choices. They had Balmain toiletries which I loathe but made it seem like they were going for Grand Hyatt positioning with signs also saying a Grand experience.” 10
Room40 mentions · 2 filmed
- “Despite being small, the room was aesthetically gorgeous.” 9
- “The king room was spacious, as it was larger than a typical hotel room; but overall it was nothing extraordinary.” 1
- “While the room wasn't actually stunning, the view was. While I couldn't see the Shanghai Tower, we had a view of the bay along Puxi, which was awesome.” 9
- “When I checked in the guy said they are connecting. I get to the rooms and there is no door so we go back to the lobby. The desk guy just says sorry they are full. He was literally useless.” 10
- “The ac would bring the room down to 71, I have a thermometer. I don't know if because I was here in May and the ac was running but I had no issues with it being hot.” 10
- “The view from the hotel room was the highlight of what was an otherwise ordinary stay.” 1
- “While it was no means a bad stay, given that the room was gorgeous and the grounds were fully functional, the service and the bad, inconsistent WiFi in our room pulled down my overall thoughts of the hotel.” 9
- “Also there is a subway access underneath the Xintiandi mall which is across the street from Andaz. However, the room in Andaz is a bit worn. The acrylic bathtub looks old and some room shown cracks. Time to remodel the property.” 6
- “Got a Nespresso machine and a pour-over kettle, which is pretty awesome.” On camera151:25
- “Bit of an issue, took forever to cool the room down - or the A/C didn't work. Others have noted this. This is a non-starter for me and will not be staying there again as I prefer colder room” 10
- “The room itself is spacious and sensibly laid out, with a comfortable bed and a separate seating area that makes the space feel open and easy to use. Furnishings are modern and in good shape.” 18
- “The closet had ample storage space as well; and was equipped with such items as an iron, an ironing board, and a robe.” 1
- “The view from my particular suite wasn't anything noteworthy but the service, location, and overall ambiance was enough to make me want to come back.” 6
- “Room renovation was spartan but clean - nothing spectacular but nothing bad. Seemed like they went as cheap as possible but it was acceptable.” 10
- “Room was modern and has an open concept bathroom.” 4
- “Opening from the hallway and from the living room, the bedroom faces the beautiful skyline of downtown Pudong.” 17
- “e room provided universal power ports, though the front desk gave me poor instructions on how to find it.” 9
- “The Bund is amazing both day and night and it is a short walk, but we saw the view from our room and that was our preferred viewpoint.” 6
- “The WiFi was really, really bad. There was probably a router really far from the room, and once I lost connection I had to walk out into the corridor to reconnect.” 9
- “Depending on your room, you'll be treated to some fantastic views of Shanghai and the surrounding skyline.” 2
- “I love when you come to the end of the hallway to find your suite sharing a private entrance with one other room. There is just one suite per floor, and I felt very fortunate that I got Neil at check in and that there was one available. Walking in the door, you can tell it's a great suite.” 17
- “The room didn't feel as new as the rest of the hotel, I suspect they didn't spend as much time on them when they took it over from the four seasons. It definitely didn't need a renovation but it wasn't brand new either.” 6
- “At first glance, the room looks nice enough; but a closer look reveals shoddy workmanship - not enough to adversely affect the stay - throughout the room, as illustrated by this poor caulk work...” 1
- “The room itself is spacious and sensibly laid out, with a comfortable bed and a separate seating area that makes the space feel open and easy to use.” 18
- “Inside the dressing room was a pair of high-quality robes, some kimonos, slippers, a safe.” 17
- “The room includes a Nespresso machine with a small selection of capsules, along with tea and mugs. It's a straightforward but welcome amenity, especially for early mornings or nights when room service feels unnecessary.” 18
- “Grand Hyatt - right next to the Park Hyatt but the room was extremely dated. It felt 2 decades old, the carpet was fraying at the edges, the metal railings were badly scratched, the shower was teeny, etc.” 6
- “From robots delivering items to your room and Disney-themed vending machines, to views of one of the world's most impressive skylines, there are constant reminders that you're staying in one of China's most dynamic cities.” 2
- “The only thing with this room is there's not much of a view. It's if you open the if you open the windows, it's more of a view of the parking lot.” On camera150:49
- “Every room features floor-to-ceiling windows, framing either classic Bund architecture or the illuminated Pudong skyline, making this one of the city's best vantage points.” 18
- “I did not get a great view (I don't have status, so make of that what you will) and the room didn't make up for that in any way. (It technically WAS a Bund view, but it was only if you stood right next to the window at EXACTLY the correct angle...otherwise, I was just looking at the other HOTB tower.)” 10
- “The suite was spacious but I probably wouldn't pay the $100/night additional for it out of pocket.” 6
- “The guest room I stayed at in the Hyatt on the Bund Shanghai was spacious, comfortable, and well suited to both business and leisure travelers.” 2
- “I was able to work on that desk; and although the Internet connection was not the best or the fastest, it worked fine.” 1
- “The room itself featured two comfortable signature Hyatt beds, a flatscreen TV with an iPod dock (which didn't charge phones), a paying minibar and a desk with an uncomfortable chair (given that the chair is wooden, I guess it figures).” 9
- “All in all, this is a decent stay if you want something cheap and stay at a Hyatt. The views depending on room can be gorgeous.” 10
- “Also hotel was fine but AC didn't work. We had the opposite experience, our AC worked very well and we kept the room ice cold” 6
- “The chaise chair right beside the window is extremely comfortable, one can melt into the view for hours and hours.” 19
- “Checking in to the hotel in its expansive lobby was no problem; and I was happy to get to my room after the day I had.” 1
- “I did not get a great view (I don't have status, so make of that what you will) and the room didn't make up for that in any way.” 10
Service21 mentions
- “Checking out of the hotel was effortless; and the members of the staff were pleasant and somewhat helpful overall.” 1
- “The view from my particular suite wasn't anything noteworthy but the service, location, and overall ambiance was enough to make me want to come back.” 6
- “Zwar waren alle Vorteile korrekt hinterlegt, einen etwas proaktiveren Service hätte ich mir vom Hotel aber gewünscht. Freundlich war der Check-In dennoch.” 16
- “The service is as incredible as you might predict, with little extras to make you feel special and consistent VIP treatment.” 3
- “I had no issues getting a late check-out at 4pm.” 18
- “The people at the desk did not have the best English, but the concierge desk was much better.” 6
- “Service at the hotel overall, much like the WiFi and the service in the restaurant, was underwhelming. Never did I receive a smile with exception of the woman who checked us in and out, and while it wasn't actively rude, it was the most indifferent service I'd ever had in a hotel this year.” 9
- “The local area is increasingly good in terms of F&B, the city has improved the greenway quite a bit (i.e. it's nice now), and you get line 12, which goes to NJ Rd West (i.e. Alia area).and Shanxi Rd South (i.e. one of the nicest parts of Huaihai Rd, which is Shanghai's other famous cross town avenue).” 10
- “Alila Shanghai - great location and food options, the check in area is very nice and I got a suite upgrade as globalist on my 1nt stay.” 6
- “The people at the desk did not have the best English, but the concierge desk was much better. For example, we stopped by the desk to check out, and they were confused and trying to check us in for about 5 minutes before they realized our stay had just ended.” 6
- “Service subpar. I parked car and the main elevator was broken but there was no sign saying that. I spent ten minutes trying to figure out how to get up, also on hold with hotel operator.” 10
- “The ambient light in the background with red lace has a nice asian touch to it.” 19
- “Book it for the view, manage expectations around crowds and service, and the pros outweigh the cons - particularly if you want a well-positioned base with easy access to Shanghai's riverfront.” 18
- “Service subpar. I parked car and the main elevator was broken but there was no sign saying that.” 10
- “Unfortunately the breakfast service was pretty bad - the staff had trouble clearing up plates in time, and I was informed that I was allowed to take photos by one staff member and was informed "No Photo" by another.” 9
- “The towels were pretty soft.” 9
- “I was greeted by Neil - and if you go to this property find Neil - he knows everything. Excellent spoken and written English skills, with a very welcoming disposition.” 17
- “While it was no means a bad stay, given that the room was gorgeous and the grounds were fully functional, the service and the bad, inconsistent WiFi in our room pulled down my overall thoughts of the hotel.” 9
- “There were also plenty of towels available in the bathroom, which was nice and clean overall - as was the rest of the room.” 1
- “When I told the bellman about my email with Link he went and got him. Link fixed the situation and got our connecting rooms. The bellman had the best English of any of them.” 10
- “The check in process takes a very long time. There were two groups ahead of us and each probably took 15+ minutes.” 6
Location21 mentions
- “I was cheap and we booked Regency Shanghai Global Harbor and we liked it as well. Right in the mall, right at the metro station, very decent lounge and nice rooms.” 6
- “About a 10 minute walk to Bund area but not much in direct vicinity. I'd stay here again but wouldn't go out of my way.” 10
- “I do agree the locations of Hyatts in Shanghai are not what anyone would call prime for tourism or leisure (Andaz possibly excepted), but I don't mind a walk to the subway station or a bike ride to get around.” 13
- “Located conveniently on the Bund in PuXi ( West side of the river) is the Hyatt on the Bund.” 19
- “Location: We felt a bit trapped in the weird location. We can walk ~10 minutes in a few directions to get to a more happening area, and it's not far from Nanjing road, but it didn't feel convenient at all.” 6
- “The location of the hotel ensures that access to the Bund is easily within walking distance.” 1
- “Location is amazing, but not right on the metro” 18
- “The location is pretty good, depending on what you're interested in (it's a short walk from the Bund).” 13
- “But if we're being honest, the location of the Hyatt on the Bund is still not "top tier" for leisure travelers IMO (though definitely much better than the PH in Pujersey).” 13
- “Location: We felt a bit trapped in the weird location. We felt a bit trapped in the weird location. We can walk ~10 minutes in a few directions to get to a more happening area, and it's not far from Nanjing road, but it didn't feel convenient at all.” 6
- “It's less than a three minute walk from the hotel to the Bund, so in terms of location I was a happy camper. 🙂” 9
- “I did not get a great view (I don't have status, so make of that what you will) and the room didn't make up for that in any way. It WAS a nice easy walk to the Bund, but aside from that, I didn't feel like it was can't-miss in any way 🤷🏻♂️” 10
- “The main selling point for this hotel is the location and the views you get from the room. As it is located on a curvature from the Bund, you can see the entire strip of old and new Shanghai.” 19
- “Location wise, Andaz is great for access to Xintiandi shopping, restaurants and malls. Also there is a subway access underneath the Xintiandi mall which is across the street from Andaz.” 6
- “Very convenient location. The hotel is right next to Global Harbor Mall. It's a huge mall. The best part about it is in between the mall and the hotel you've also got a train station, subway station.” 14
- “10 minute walk from Bund, not bad. Not much in immediate area.” 10
- “The hotel is located at the northern end of the legendary Bund and on the western banks of the Huangpu River, offering convenient access to LujiaZhui CBD, the International Cruise Terminal, and the Bund area.” 3
- “Park Hyatt Shanghai - excellent all around, breakfast was okay relative to the Park Hyatt brand but to date the best I've had in China, I would gladly stay here again. The only downside is just that you're in the business district.” 6
- “The current Park Hyatt location is pretty bad for leisure travelers and even not ideal for business travelers IMO (though it really depends on where your business meetings/conferences are).” 13
- “For sightseeing and atmosphere, Hyatt on the Bund is much better located than Grand Hyatt Shanghai - right on the Huangpu river and next to the historic Bund, rather than inside a skyscraper in Pudong's financial district.” 18
- “Right in the mall, right at the metro station, very decent lounge and nice rooms.” 6
Food19 mentions
- “Club access was calm when I was there (midweek), we had no problems sitting where we wanted to and generally wasn't much foot traffic around. Breakfast was a madhouse though.” 6
- “Gerade das Restaurant im Hyatt on the Bund hat bei mir allerdings einen wirklich hervorragenden Eindruck hinterlassen und ich würde dieses jederzeit weiterempfehlen!” 7
- “I thought the selection of hot and cold dishes for breakfast was superb.” 19
- “Park Hyatt Shanghai - excellent all around, breakfast was okay relative to the Park Hyatt brand but to date the best I've had in China, I would gladly stay here again.” 6
- “Da bei unserer Buchung das Frühstück inkludiert war sind wir hier jeweils am Morgen vor den Massen an chinesischen Gästen eingekehrt und haben das überaus umfangreiche Buffet genossen.” 16
- “The breakfast buffet was on the 2nd floor so maybe that's what it's technically called? That space was nice and roomy but the views are limited” 6
- “The restaurants at Hyatt on the Bund in Shanghai are nothing short of trailblazing.” 3
- “I think I'd agree about the breakfast. They have tons of options for whatever you're craving but I ended up eating Rice Krispies every morning because nothing was that impressive.” 6
- “The restaurant has a open concept show kitchen. As I was alone, I highly appreciated being seated at a table directly in front of the show kitchen.” 4
- “Umso beeindruckender ist aber das große Buffet, das einen überraschend großen Anteil westlicher Speisen hat.” 7
- “I think I'd agree about the breakfast. They have tons of options for whatever you're craving but I ended up eating Rice Krispies every morning because nothing was that impressive. A lot of misses, but our group still liked the convenience and options.” 6
- “The coffee was great as well.” 19
- “Breakfast is a large buffet with all sorts of options (sushi, lots of Chinese dishes, pizza, western dishes, cereal, you name it). For our group of 5, it was very convenient and definitely a positive.” 6
- “Von den Vorspeisen über die Hauptgerichte bis zum Dessert fühlte sich im Prinzip alles an wie Sterneküche - so etwas erlebt man wirklich selten.” 7
- “The trade-off is atmosphere: during peak hours, especially mid-morning, the restaurant gets busy and can feel loud and crowded.” 18
- “Tried to eat at the restaurant but the duck sold out. They gave me a table that had the ambiance of an Ikea restaurant. So I left” 10
- “The breakfast line was an absolute zoo, so I ended up eating elsewhere.” 6
- “The spread was huge, but I didn't really find it as tasty as the breakfast food, and while the Western options were delicious, the Chinese options were comparatively lacking. Still, it was tasty, but I'm not sure the buffet was worth the CNY328 I spent on it.” 9
- “I thought the breakfast was pretty bad and I am used to the low standards of Chinese hotel breakfasts.” 6
Bed & Sleep3 mentions · 1 filmed
- “The beds were comfortable, and while the signature Hyatt beds aren't as comfortable as, say, Westin Heavenly Beds or Sheraton Sweet Sleeper beds, they do provide a good night of sleep, which I'm fine with just like that.” 9
- “Bed looks pretty comfortable.” On camera151:07
- “The king room was spacious, as it was larger than a typical hotel room; but overall it was nothing extraordinary. Although the bed was not the best one in which I have ever slept, it was comfortable.” 1
Bathroom12 mentions · 2 filmed
- “The bathroom was even nicer, featuring a single sink, a separate tub and shower, and a toilet in a separate room.” 9
- “The bathroom itself was adequate but not very spacious - even when the sliding doors were opened.” 1
- “The bathroom is a bit strange, as they divided the toilet from the shower/bathtub with fogged glass. I'm not sure how to describe it but it is not luxurious.” 6
- “I liked the separation of the toilet from the shower.” 19
- “The shower itself had a handheld shower head and a rainforest shower head, which I always enjoy.” 9
- “One annoying thing is the shower drained slow and also there was a fire alarm beacon in the room that would flash about once every 30 seconds.” 10
- “The rooms range in size from 42 to 300 m² and have innovative open bathroom concepts where you can choose to create an open-plan studio space or close off the bathroom as desired; with bathrooms this gorgeous I predict that you'll want to see them!” 3
- “Room was modern and has an open concept bathroom. But there is a sliding door which can give you privacy if you are sharing the room with a friend. I kind of like this open concept bathroom.” 4
- “Now, let's take a look at the bathroom. Oh, it's a big bathroom. We've got a bathtub. A deep bathtub, nice one.” On camera144:22
- “The bathroom is well-sized, with a double vanity set beneath a bright mirror. The shower has both a rainfall head and a handheld wand. A deep soaking tub sits nearby.” 18
- “One thing that is weird about the room is the bathroom. It is open and connected to the room and can be divided via sliding doors.” 19
- “And let's see what We have got a separate shower. Right here. And the toilet is nicely separated here. Very nice.” On camera144:42
View8 mentions
- “The Bund view is amazing and really one of the only reasons to stay in this hotel.” 6
- “Since the view is one of the main reasons to book Hyatt on the Bund in the first place, this felt like a meaningful and well-aligned upgrade.” 18
- “The 15th floor was high enough to enjoy the view, but the 25th floor is definitely even better. There is almost literally no storage available in the rooms. The dresser has two drawers, one of which is full of plates/glasses and the other which can be used for a couple outfits at most.” 6
- “The rooms were decent. The view of the bund was amazing.” 10
- “The view was good but not as breathtaking as the Park Hyatt.” 6
- “I was in the East tower and so did not have a good view of the Oriental Pearl Tower as it was on my right. But the view of the Bund on Puxi was excellent. It is especially beautiful at night.” 4
- “The view is what kept this stay from being simply ordinary and unexceptional.” 1
- “When standing close to the window and looking to the left, you can see the Oriental Pearl Tower across the river. The view is impressive during the day and especially striking at night when the skyline lights up and reflects off the water.” 18
