As the gateway to Xintiandi, the lifestyle and entertainment hub of Shanghai, The Langham, Shanghai, Xintiandi is ideally located adjacent to the retail utopia of Huaihai Road, surrounded by various trendy clubs, glamorous international restaurants and designer boutiques. Boasting Chuan Spa, an indoor pool and gourmet cuisine across several stylish restaurants, this property is a 1-minute stroll from South Huangpi Road Subway Station (Line 1), which provides easy access to the top tourist attractions in Shanghai. My recent stay at The Langham Shanghai Xintiandi was absolutely wonderful. The staff were incredibly thoughtful and professional – from helping with early arrangements for a special occasion for my parents to offering excellent dining recommendations, everything felt personalized and warm. The room my parents stayed in was beautiful and perfect for their celebration. While my own room had a slight odor initially, the team handled it promptly after I informed the front desk, which I truly appreciated. One moment that truly stood out was when I encountered a dishonest taxi driver attempting to overcharge me more than four times the normal fare. Several hotel staff members (three or four, in fact) came outside to support and assist me immediately. Thanks to their calm and assertive help, the situation was resolved, and I felt completely safe and looked after. I’m sincerely grateful to those staff members for going above and beyond – because of them, what could have been a distressing moment turned into a reminder that kindness and professionalism can shine through, even in the most unexpected situations. Overall, the experience was memorable, and I would happily recommend The Langham to friends and family. Thank you for making our stay so special – and for helping me end my Shanghai trip with a truly positive impression of the city.

Well set in the centre of Shanghai, Opartment - People's Square 远东饭店 - 人民广场 provides air-conditioned rooms, a terrace, free WiFi and a bar. The property is located 500 metres from Pedestrian Street of East Nanjing Rd., 500 metres from People's Square and 2.8 km from Yu Garden. The accommodation offers room service, a 24-hour front desk and organising tours for guests.

Shanghai Railway Station is 3.1 km from the accommodation, while Superbrand Shopping Mall Shanghai is 3.3 km away. Shanghai Hongqiao International Airport is 16 km from the property. Our stay at Opartment by Far East was absolutely wonderful! Traveling with young children can be challenging, but this accommodation made our experience so much smoother and more enjoyable. They accommodated to 2 extra rooms at very last minute notice because our previous accommodation was horrendous. The rooms were spacious, beautifully designed, and impeccably clean. The fully-equipped kitchen was perfect for preparing meals for the kids, and the daily cleaning service ensured we could relax after a busy day exploring. The location was unbeatable—close to key attractions like Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street, the Bund, and People’s Square. Everything we needed was within walking distance, including family-friendly restaurants and a convenience store a few steps away from the hotel A special mention to the staff who went above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect. Their kindness and attention to detail, from helping with luggage to providing local tips, truly set this property apart. We can’t recommend Opartment enough for families or anyone looking for a comfortable, stylish, and well-located place to stay in Shanghai. Thank you for making our trip so memorable—we’ll definitely return!
