    Everything was perfect!

    Two nights at the peninsula was the perfect end to our trip in China and really made our experience in Shanghai extra special. From the spacious room (with a dressing room and river view!), to the stunning facilities (particularly loved the pool, sauna and steam room!) everything is so well thought through. Breakfast was ample and delicious! All of the staff are so lovely and the concierge team are also excellent and booked our dinners in for us which was much appreciated. Highly recommend staying here!

    Unfriendly staff attitude

    The hotel is beautiful. If the unfriendly staff (check-in reception and conciergerie) would change their attitude, this could be a true 5 star hotel.

    I did not like the potential cost of a local ride in a hotel car. I understand paying for luxury and convenience, but I found the amount over a Premiere Didi didn't make sense.

    It was a perfect breakfast option, whether you dined in the lobby restaurant or dined in your room, the quality and consistency of the order was excellent.

    I have stayed in many luxury hotels. Peninsula Shanghai was the first for my Peninsula experience. I have to say that I am surprised that there isn't a personal message. I would think a personal written message in the room 'Dear Ms. Lee....' would have put Peninsula a notch up from Peace.

    I booked a room facing the Huang Po river and best of all I was given on with direct view of Oriental Pearl TV Tower. Just so beautiful. This makes it all worth the price to pay :-). The staffs are all very well trained, polite. Most of all Danny and Ray (I may get the names wrong but they are the only 2 guys at the concierge) are superb. Thank you.

    Due to the timing of our visit aligning with the international expo the increased security at the hotel made entrance and exit like being at airport security however this was only a minor inconvenience and an understandable one.

    This is by far the best hotel we have ever stayed at, the room was amazing and the staff would put an exceptional amount of effort into ensuring that the experience was as comfortable and luxurious as possible. We stayed in the deluxe garden room however luckily as we were on floor 12 and the corner of the hotel we were also able to have a stunning view of the Huangpu river and skyline! The room has all the facilities you would expect from a hotel of this quality and the bed is very large and super comfortable. There is a good sized bathroom and walk in wardrobe which has excessive storage space for storage of your belongings, a special shout out to the staff who suprised my girlfriend with cake and a birthday card, she loved it! We particularly enjoyed visiting the rooftop bar as the atmosphere and views at night are amazing, This hotel is perfect if you are looking for the highest quality stay in Shanghai city centre. We look forward to returning!

    After thinking and re-thinking I could not find a single thing that I didn't like about this hotel.

    On my way to Dalian, had a one-day layover stop in Shanghai and wanted to have a taste of the city. My room and the hotel hall and interiors was so great that I didn't know what to do: whether to stay in the room, to go to the rooftop bar at the hotel or to go out for a walk. Every single detail of this hotel is carefully taken into account, specially in the room: the towels, the linen, the bed, the bathroom, the music sound, the furniture, the lights, the windows. In short, the room that I was asigned was close to perfection. Even the coffee available in the room (Nespresso) to kickstart the day tasted like no other. The view of the city from the rooftop bar is amazing.
