Shanghai Hotels with Free Breakfast

This hotel is absolutely fantastic! The facilities are brand new, and it's primarily a cinema-themed hotel. It boasts a huge projector screen, and the best part is that they provide a membership, so you can watch movies without having to subscribe yourself, unlike other cinema hotels! The viewing experience is superb; I haven't encountered a better one anywhere else! They even provide complimentary popcorn and drinks 🥤! The location is perfect, right on Julu Road in the charming Wutong District, ideal for a city walk! While the price is a bit on the higher side, it is Shanghai after all! I'll definitely stay here again!

We thoroughly enjoyed the stay! My daughter especially love the animals in the accommodation and we only wished we stayed longer! The service was top notch! They even helped me book a taxi to send my luggage to the next hotel instead of having me going back to hotel to arrange for it! I was out at another place quite far and it was too troublesome to get back to hotel to collect the luggage. They were the best!!! We felt very well taken care of and well rested! They also rent out a super luxurious stroller that totally make the Disney trip a breeze! My kid still needs her nap and it helped to age a nice trolley to nap in!

This hotel is 8-9 years old, and the facilities are quite poor. There's absolutely no street view. I initially went to the Marriott Renaissance by mistake, which is around the same price and also has similar operating hours, but it's in a much higher building. If you're not in one of the street-facing rooms at the Mercure, you're looking right at the back of a residential complex. 😢 The late-night snack was just noodles and wontons from that day! And the breakfast the next morning 😂😂😂 was even worse... I arrived at 9:20 AM and most of the food was gone, and they weren't restocking it promptly. I observed that by 9:45 AM, there was hardly anything good left. If you want breakfast, you better go early! I came here based on Ctrip reviews, but honestly, it was just mediocre. I don't know why it has so many good reviews! The Marriott Renaissance, for a similar price, offers city night views (not of the Oriental Pearl Tower, though) and an indoor pool, and it's closer to Yu Garden. The two hotels are only about a 10-minute walk apart! Anyway, if there's a next time, I'll definitely choose the Marriott Renaissance. 😂😂😂 Oh, and the hairdryer in the hotel 😂😂😂 had a bad connection; I had to hold it to make it work. I also don't know if it was just my imagination, but when I first entered the bathroom, there was a slight smell of urine... and my nose is particularly sensitive. To sum it up in one sentence... this room is not worth 1200! The service, however, was very good! No doubt about that.

Having stayed at numerous top-tier five-star hotels both domestically and internationally, especially many in Shanghai, The Bellagio Shanghai is one of the very few that makes me want to return again and again. It's grand yet refined, with impeccable attention to detail. This stay was even better; Penny from guest services was beautiful and enthusiastic. She called and messaged me in advance to inquire about my check-in needs, and upon learning I was with a friend's family, she proactively arranged our rooms on the same floor and close to each other. She thoughtfully prepared fruit and toiletries for the children and even helped coordinate with their partner brand, Range Rover, for station drop-off, ensuring my friend's family and I had a perfect stay. The location is superb, convenient for both The Bund and North Bund, offering Suzhou Creek views, quiet yet central. Another highlight is the fantastic breakfast; The Bellagio's mini wontons are arguably the best in the country. This is a purely handwritten review, and I am extremely, extremely satisfied.

When in Lujiazui, Pudong Shangri-La is always my first choice. The hotel is well-maintained, and Sean Zhu, the front desk manager, arranged my room in advance. I'm very satisfied with it – it's spacious with a great view. He was friendly and polite. The room was exceptionally clean, and any requests were promptly attended to. During check-in, he also helped register my license plate into the system. Overall, it was an excellent experience, and I'll definitely stay here again on my next visit to Shanghai.

This hotel boasts an excellent location, being close to the Pudong International Exhibition Center and Century Park, which is super convenient for attending exhibitions and sightseeing. There are shopping malls and a subway station nearby, making transportation a breeze. The pool is fantastic, and the service is top-notch, especially Nancy's service, which truly stood out. She was diligent and responsible, genuinely friendly, and communicated with great detail and patience. She quickly understood our needs and went above and beyond to help us resolve various issues, working efficiently and reliably. Her service was perfectly balanced – attentive without being intrusive. Overall, the experience was great, and her professionalism was outstanding. A sincere thank you to Nancy for her dedicated efforts; I highly recommend this hotel.

Visiting Shanghai during the Tourism Festival, choosing to stay at the Waldorf Astoria on the Bund was hands down the best decision of this trip. Staying in a century-old building, with stunning city views of both sides of the Huangpu River right outside your window. Our dedicated concierge, Aaron Echole, was incredibly knowledgeable about local festivities and gave us thoughtful tips for the float parade and light festival, saving us the hassle of planning everything ourselves. It truly allowed us to immerse ourselves in the romance of Shanghai in autumn. The hardware, service, and superb location – all were exceptional. This hotel is definitely a top recommendation for anyone visiting Shanghai.

While the basic accommodation needs are met, there's definitely room for improvement in the details. In the mornings, there was often a loud banging noise from the corridor, which was quite disruptive and woke me up early, preventing a good night's sleep. The in-room facilities felt quite dated, and the bathroom waterproofing was inadequate; water would easily seep out during showers, making the floor slippery – a minor but present hazard. I hope the hotel considers renovating and upgrading the bathroom facilities and improving sound insulation between floors. On the positive side, the hotel's unique scenery and ambiance are big pluses. The lobby frequently features a resident band playing live music, creating a wonderful atmosphere in the common areas with their melodious tunes. The rooftop bar offers expansive views and an excellent sightseeing experience. The antique Rolls-Royce parked outside is a rare sight and makes for a stylish photo opportunity. Overall, it's a mixed bag of pros and cons.

Anyone booking the W for Qixi Festival is probably looking for that nightclub-style date vibe 🌝, and it definitely didn't disappoint! The room decor and lighting created such a great atmosphere. I asked the front desk for room number 10, and they accommodated my request. The view of the 'Three-Piece Set' (referring to the iconic skyline) at night was absolutely breathtaking – major thumbs up! I'd heard before that W's service wasn't great, but after experiencing it myself, I found it to be quite on point. Communication was smooth, and the staff's attitude was excellent. The restaurant food was delicious! I slept in the next morning and missed breakfast, and honestly, I feel like I lost a million bucks 🌝. Overall, I'm very satisfied and would definitely come back given the chance.

We had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The location is fantastic—within easy walking distance of Shanghai Railway Station. If you’re traveling through Shanghai and need to transfer to Pudong Airport, this is a very convenient place for an overnight stay or layover. The customer service was superb. The front desk staff were friendly, professional, and very efficient. Mr. Li was especially helpful, and it was obvious that he takes his job very seriously. Our room was clean, spacious, comfortable, and quiet. We really had nothing to complain about. The hotel also offers a breakfast buffet with a good variety of selections, which was very convenient before heading out in the morning. Thumbs up for the front-lobby décor! My daughters loved the fountain with the colorful goldfish. Overall, we were very happy with our stay. Great location, excellent service, and comfortable accommodations. We would definitely stay here again!
