The 270-room Fairmont Peace Hotel is a gem of a luxury property situated in a prime spot on the Bund overlooking the Huangpu River. It's close to shopping on Nanjing Road, and the metro is nearby, too. The hotel dates back to 1929 and still retains many of its gorgeous Art Deco features, but has been modernized with contemporary extras like a pool and spa. Rooms and suites are spacious and beautifully decorated, and some have outstanding city views. Butlers are available in higher-category rooms. Dining is exceptional at two fine-dining spots, and the famed Jazz Bar has been serving up cocktails and live music for decades. For a more modern luxurious experience in Shanghai, travelers could check out the Mandarin Oriental Pudong, which is housed in a 25-story glass high-rise.

The five-star Mandarin Oriental Pudong, Shanghai is one of the top hotels in Shanghai with luxe amenities, elegant decor, and impeccable personal service. The 362 guest rooms and suites are spacious, with floor-to-ceilings windows and marble bathrooms with separate soaking tubs and rainfall showers. Minibars, Illy coffeemakers, and 24-hour room service are among the amenities. The hotel has three on-site restaurants (one is Michelin-starred), a lobby lounge, a late-night bar, and a cake shop. There's a massive spa with 13 treatment rooms, a sauna, a steam room, and more, plus a heated indoor swimming pool, and 24-hour gym. The riverside spot in Pudong offers great views and easy access to financial centers, but it's not quite as convenient for tourists. Those who'd prefer to be in the heart of Pudong might consider the Grand Hyatt Shanghai.

The luxury Les Suites Orient, Bund Shanghai is situated on the historic Bund and showcases epic views of the Pudong skyline.

The hotel's restaurant, which feels more like a swanky living room, serves up lunch, dinner, and drinks, plus a free daily breakfast buffet with Eastern and Asian dishes. There's also a stylish 24-hour lounge with free coffee, tea, and snacks and a chic, spacious gym with modern cardio equipment and space for yoga.
