Directly facing the People's Square, the Shanghai Art Museum, Shanghai Grand Theater and East Nanjing Road shopping area, luxury awaits at Radisson Blu Hotel Shanghai New World.

The location is right on People's Square, so it is easy to get to most places in town via the Metro. The rooms are nice and well-outfitted, though a little bit dated. Good value overall.

FAQs about hotels in Shanghai

A Beacon of Modern China

A beacon of 21st-century China, Shanghai is modernizing at an electrifying rate. Nowhere is this more evident than the skyscraper-punctuated Pudong commercial district. The most distinct - the Oriental Pearl Tower - has a ball at the top and bottom and has fabulous city views. A number of towers also twist as they go up – a feat of contemporary engineering.

This side of the city also houses Shanghai Pudong International Airport, while Shanghai Hongqiao Airport is over the Huangpu River in the Puxi district. An area of older and less dominating buildings, Puxi features the elegant Bund area whose varied architecture includes a surprising array of Art Deco.

With a choice of shopping centers and small shops beneath brightly lit neon signs just like Chinatowns across the world, Shanghai shopping is fantastic.

Other must-see Shanghai attractions include the wonderful Shanghai Museum and the Jade Buddha Temple. For a break from the hustle and bustle, head to the Yuyuan Gardens, the beach or peaceful Zhujiajiao Water Town in the west.

Whether you choose one of the Shanghai hotels, apartments or hostels, take time to go to a tea house, a Chinese institution. Also worth sampling are Shanghai hairy crab, steamed dumplings and the freshwater fish so popular with locals.

    Found it difficult getting around due to most people not speaking English. Got lost several times at metro station and had not realized we had to change trains, but was happy that there was a voice announcements in English advising of the approaching stations. The underground market at Science and technology were quite an experience as one had to haggle alot and get better prices.

    We had a long layover and so decided to go into Shanghai prior to using an airport hotel. We grabbed a map from the airport information, who gave us a few ideas of where to go and opted to take the subway and note that to pay for it you do need to download the wechat app and use the payment on there - there is no other payment method available. We had the most fun time ever as it is so easy to get around - visit the Bund to see the river and skyline (very busy) - visit the tunnels to get over to the other side for a really wacky, fun experience and for a tiny bit extra, the most unexpected VR experience ever. There were street markets and food and the parks are very pretty. Also worth catching the Maglev train back to the airport - it's pricey but travelling at 300 km + per hour is worth it. The whole lot gave us a small insight into Shanghai, lots of fun and lasted for about 4 hours. Then we checked into a hotel near the airport for a well earned sleep

    We spent 11 days in Shanghai, which in hindsight might have been a bit too long. If possible, I’d recommend checking out some other cities during your trip as well to add more variety. One place we visited was Yuyuan Garden (Yu Garden), but unfortunately it was a bit of a letdown — I wouldn’t really recommend it. You’ll hardly need any cash while in Shanghai. It’s a good idea to download Alipay, and WeChat if possible, as they make payments super easy almost everywhere.

    Fantastic city, well worth a visit. People friendly and try to help with directions if they can, English not widely spoken, need some kind of map system on your phone, be aware there is no google maps in China (also no yahoo no twitter no facebook as well as no google)

    At the Holiday Inn Pudong Shanghai, you'll be greeted by helpful and professional staff. The rooms, known for their cleanliness, brightness, and spaciousness, are comfortable retreats. While some are windowless, the hotel’s location is near various restaurants, coffee shops, and the Zhongke Road Metro (Line 13), which adds to its appeal. Lukin Coffee and Family Mart are just a few metres away, with a McDonald's next to the reception/entrance area. A mall within walking distance also offers more dining and shopping options.

    the hotel is very near Shanghai Pudong airport (about 6 km so with DIDI something like 10 min by car) and this is a big plus. In the area around not a lot to do but if you need some food there are a couple of simple restaurants very close by the hotel. Hotel room good size and clean
