Top Madame Tussauds Wax Museum Hotel Reviews

Blossom House Shanghai On The Bund

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely amazing stay right in the center of The Bund. It’s across the street from the ancient historical garden and right tin the the luxurious area of Shanghai. The hotel also offers a free photoshoot, which is really fun and a unique experience. The Photographer and his Assistant are great and you will leave with some incredible memories. Shout out to the incredibly polite cleaning staff! They do a fantastic job of keeping your room and the premises clean."

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."

Shanghai Elong Hotel by the Nanjing Road

10/10 Excellent

"Very good location! 15-20 minutes walk to the Bund . Nanjing street is 2 minutes away. Free water bottles (grab all that you want without limit!). To me, free laundry was a big plus (hotel has 8 washing machines & dryers & all of them worked very well). Breakfast buffet also is very good. Various healthy dishes, low salt soups, free late evening snack (from 8 to 10 pm. Most of staff don’t speak English but everyone including housekeeping use translation app to help guests pretty effectively. All were kind, patient & eager to help. There was one male receptionist, who spoke fluent English & has helped me a lot but he didn’t have an English name, just a Chinese name. He said he had a BA degree. Overall, I had a really good time during my 3 nights stay here!"

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."
