We enjoyed four nights at the Renaissance. Our room had an incredible view of Pudong and the beautiful Shanghai skyline! The room was beautiful, the staff was extremely helpful and the location was very central to the Old Town, Yuyuan Gardens, Pudong, and the Bund. I would highly recommend this hotel. Our only complaint was the restaurant was a bit... more

I agree with the previous reviewer that this hotel is good but not great. The location is both good and bad. The good thing is it is located in the center of Shanghai. So pretty much every other attraction is very close by. The bad thing is that this hotel is located in a rather run-down, old section of Shanghai.... more

The subway construction allowed us to get bargain rates with the fancy buffet breakfast. We stayed for a week and loved the room, (we were upgraded to one with a soaking tub in front of a huge window overlooking the city because the first room was too hot.). The staff was more than terrific, perhaps because the hotel was new... more

First, there is a huge construction project going on around this hotel and it will continue for years. There are some highlights like the pool area on the top floor where you can see for miles and this is nice at night. People go there for the night time view. The location is right next to a large market (Old... more

I booked this hotel because it is close to the residence of my brother. Lodging experience is surprisingly good. 1. Brand new, modern, spacious and tidy room 2. Good breakfast: Lots of choice and quality food 3. Friendly staff 4. Just 5 minutes walk to the famous yuyuan. Very convenient to go to Xin Tin Di and other attractions. A... more

Stayed here in mid march for 3 nights followed by 1 night at the Grand Hyatt Pudong. If you're in shanghai for holiday i would definitely suggest the renaissance. Room rooms are clean and 5 star quality Concierge good English and helpful - know where you want to go as they will mostly suggest western restaurants. For some good suggestions... more

Wow!!! This was an awesome hotel. I loved the modern décor of the common areas and the hotel rooms. The only thing was the color of the rug – it’s very bright and doesn’t really go well with everything. I read the review about how small the size of the rooms were – I completely disagree. The rooms were ample-sized... more

Our 3-night accommodation at Renaissance Yuyuan was booked as a package with Dragonair as they were in some sort of promotional partnership. Included in the package were free airport transfers operated by the hotel exclusively for KA passengers. However, only upon our arrival at the Pudong Airport we realised that the transfer was not operated frequently like on hourly basis... more

This hotel is great because it is all new and a modern (if a bit bright) style. The location is just south of the Bund and a quick cab drive from all the action. My room had a great view. The gym is poor, but the breakfast buffet is great. There was hardly anyone at the hotel while I was... more
