The PuLi Shanghai

At The PuLi Shanghai, the bed and sitting area share one room, with large windows along the wall.

A week here, month by month

I’d come to the PuLi to stay in Jing’An, beside the park and with an evening at the Long Bar. To wake up facing Pudong’s skyline from across the river, I’d choose the Bund.

Is it for you?

As a couple, look at a Deluxe for the window-side bathtub and screen between bed and bathroom. Choose it when you don’t need a separate sitting room for the evening.

I’d ask for
A Deluxe Room, with the bathroom layout checked.

  1. Breakfast with a suite

    For suites booked in advance, the hotel lists breakfast among the benefits: PHÉNIX, Long Bar, in-room or takeaway. Have those benefits confirmed with your rate before planning the morning.

  2. Check the airport transfer

    A one-way airport limousine is listed for suite stays of at least 2 consecutive nights. Check that your booking qualifies before arranging another transfer.

  3. The minibar is included

    The Private Bar is replenished daily and included. Check it in the confirmation so you know what you can open without adding up charges.

  4. The wellness centre at night

    The gym and area with hot tub, sauna and steam room are listed as open all day. Treatment appointments follow the spa’s separate hours, from 10am to 10pm.

What The PuLi Shanghai is

Bedrooms combine dark wood, pale fabrics and screens that change the relationship between bathroom and bed. Some categories have an open sitting area; larger suites make it a separate room. I’d choose the layout before the name.

PHÉNIX is a French brasserie overlooking the greenery. The Long Bar covers late meals and evenings, while the Garden Terrace offers outdoor seats in good weather.

The heated indoor pool is 25 metres long and sits on the 3rd floor. Windows face the trees.

39 guests said so on Google, from 7 November 2024 to 18 October 2026. Google reviews of the hotel, including visits to its bars and restaurants. Other hotels may cover different periods and numbers of reviews. The other hotels are the ones weighed for a stay in Shanghai: for each we read its latest 500 Google reviews with text, or all of them where there are fewer, as of 4 November 2026. The score is the average of what they say, from 0 if they speak of it very badly to 10 if they speak of it very well. Where only a few mention something, the score stays close to the guide’s average: a handful of voices does not make a reputation.

The hotels we weigh it against in Shanghai:

Mandarin Oriental Pudong Shanghai

I’d choose the Mandarin Oriental to stay in Pudong and have dinner at Yong Yi Ting. If your Shanghai starts each morning in the French Concession and ends in Jing’An’s bars, I’d stay in Puxi.

Il tetto verde del Peace Hotel e i grattacieli di Pudong oltre il fiume

Fairmont Peace Hotel

The Old Jazz Band in the evening and the Bund outside in the morning: that’s why I’d come to the Peace. For a trip centred on Lujiazui’s offices, I’d stay in Pudong.

Il salone con colonne e lampadari del Waldorf Astoria Shanghai

Waldorf Astoria Shanghai on the Bund

For a suite in the old Shanghai Club and an evening at the Long Bar, I’d choose the Waldorf. With a diary full of meetings in Lujiazui, I’d stay over in Pudong.

The Dolder Grand

Curhaus towers above Zurich, art in the corridors and warm water facing the city.

The Belle Époque façade on Rue du Grand-Chêne: red awnings, wrought-iron balconies and the carved gable above the columned entrance porch lettered “Lausanne-Palace”, with flags; the brasserie’s green awning on the left

Lausanne Palace

Lausanne climbs behind the palace; from the right rooms, the lake appears beyond the rooftops.

The Secret Garden at dusk: stone stairways and balustrades, lit by small lamps, climb the slope in terraces among trees and clipped shrubs; a young tree in the foreground and a rustic stone arch above a terrace at the top

Hotel de Russie

From Via del Babuino, a garden climbs towards the Pincio and Rome changes pace at the door.

La Terrazza, the hotel’s rooftop, at dusk: pale sofas and armchairs, wooden tables with small lit lamps and potted plants; behind, the dome of San Carlo al Corso and the rooftops of Rome as far as the Vittoriano

Bulgari Hotel Roma

The Mausoleum of Augustus outside, a mosaic pool within and Rome from the fifth floor.

The view over the hotel’s roofs in summer: flags over the park, the Schanzengraben canal lined with boats, and Lake Zurich with the Alps on the horizon
