Top Madame Tussauds Wax Museum Hotel Reviews

Blossom House Shanghai On The Bund

10/10 Excellent

"I was pleased with my stay and would stay there again."

Holiday Inn Express Shanghai On The Bund by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay at the Holiday Inn On The Bund was amazing. The hotel is beautiful and very well maintained. The rooms are spacious, the beds are comfortable, and the shower was very clean. Although our room didn’t have an exterior view, it overlooked an indoor garden that we could enjoy through the curtains. The breakfast buffet was excellent and offered a great selection of both local and Western cuisine—perfect for a healthy start to the day. The location also made us feel safe throughout our stay, with easy access to restaurants and nearby streets. Overall, it was a perfect choice for our two-day stay while exploring Shanghai. Highly recommended!"

Shanghai Marriott Marquis City Centre

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent stay in Shanghai, great location. Ellie at the front desk was very helpful. We return :)"

Renaissance Shanghai Yu Garden Hotel on the Bund by Nanjing Road

10/10 Excellent

"Breakfast is decent but not great. Staff are nice and helpful but their English language proficiency requires improvement."

Central Hotel Shanghai

8/10 Good

"Great hotel, right in the center of everything, walking distance to big walking street with shops and restaurants. One thing we noticed, hotel staffs have 1 same tune trying to get every guest to upgrade their rooms with extra charges. They would start by saying: "your room is not ready, but we have a bigger room with free breakfast if you upgrade and pay 250+ yuan extra...". If you want to stick with your originally booking then just say NO."

River House Near Peoples Square And The Bund

8/10 Good

"For our family of 4, this was the perfect room! There was room for everyone to have their own space to relax, with a beautiful view and really close to plenty of shopping - but surprisingly quiet. Nanjing road, Joycity Mall and the fashion markets were all within 10min walk along with so many food option and an Aldi supermarket. The room was a little dated and the corridors were in need of a renovation, but if you can ignore that, you’ll enjoy your stay. Plus, for a family, having a washing machine in the room was an absolute game changer! Also, ask them about their well priced airport transfers - great driver, fancy big car and better pricing than Didi."

The Westin Bund Center, Shanghai

10/10 Excellent

"5 min walk from nanjing road and the bund very nice breakfast and staff really helpfull"

Conrad Shanghai

10/10 Excellent

"Quain g camille ivy very good staff very nice location"

The St. Regis Shanghai Jingan

10/10 Excellent

"I stayed 4 nights in September and I really enjoyed this hotel. The location is great, easy to get to anywhere and very quick to get a taxi any time. The room is huge and bathroom has an amazing view. The bath tub is particularly large. Breakfast was very good with plenty of choices. I will stay again."
