Top Madame Tussauds Wax Museum Hotel Reviews

Crowne Plaza Shanghai Nanjing Road by IHG

8/10 Good

"Good location, clean rooms. Friendly staff"

Radisson Collection Hyland Shanghai

10/10 Excellent

"Good location, nice staff."

Pudong Shangri-La, Shanghai

10/10 Excellent

"This was our second time staying at a Shangri-La, and it certainly did not disappoint! We previously stayed at the Shangri-La in Singapore three years ago, and this time we stayed at the Shanghai property. The hotel is beautiful, clean, spacious, and incredibly well located. It is close to the Oriental Pearl Tower and on the quieter side of the Bund, making it a lovely location for exploring the area and enjoying the boat trips along the Bund. After a busy day out, it was always a pleasure to return to the hotel. Our room was lovely and spacious, and the overall atmosphere was very comfortable. The staff were generally friendly, although we felt the service in the Singapore branch was slightly better. That said, the breakfast staff were exceptional. We had specific dietary requirements, and the breakfast team went above and beyond to help us. They personally walked us around to explain the different options, brought in the chef to speak with us, and gave us advice on what would be suitable. They were genuinely so kind and accommodating, which we really appreciated. The hotel was also very kind in allowing us to keep our dietary food in their fridge, as the fridge in our room was more of a cool box than a proper fridge. Overall, we had a wonderful stay. The incredible location, beautiful spacious rooms, and the kindness of the breakfast team made it a pleasure to stay here. We would definitely consider returning to Shangri-La again!"

Conrad Shanghai

8/10 Good

"Hotel is fine, room had a wonderful view, location was very convenient as well. The hotel rooms are old. Which might look like the marble in the bathroom is kind of moldy, worn off. Rooms are small too, not a convenient layout. Other than that the stay was great. Staff is exceptional."

The St. Regis Shanghai Jingan

10/10 Excellent

"it's a great hotel. But I love that they assign you with a special staff member making sure we have beverage, fruits and questions answers. Ours was Diana and she was excellent!!! She made our experience with the hotel so much better."
