Spirit Of Old Shanghai In Mansion Shanghai Hotel

Utterly unique. Enchantingly opulent. Completely captivating. Step into the private reception room … and be swept back in time to the golden age of the ‘Paris of the East’. As the phonograph crackles into life with the songs of opera diva and former guest Mei Lanfang, a world of art deco wonders, swinging jazz bands and glamorous gangsters beckons.

Designed by the French architect Lafayette in 1932 and located in the vibrant heart of the historic French Concession, our luxury restored heritage boutique hotel offers the city’s most authentic experience of ‘Old Shanghai’ and it is the best place where to stay in Shanghai. Formerly headquarters of Shanghai vice boss Du Yuesheng, the Mansion Shanghai Hotel was once the nerve centre of an opium empire and scene of some of roaring Shanghai’s most decadent parties. Hundreds of artifacts and photographs attest to its colourful past, as you relax into its lavish modern-day incarnation.

Today, the Mansion Hotel Shanghai offers a unique range of dining and meetings possibilities, including a traditional Chinese restaurant where the city’s movers and shakers gather in lavish private dining rooms and a rooftop restaurant serving eclectic international cuisine overlooking the French Concession district.

Prepare to be transported to perhaps the most exciting and exotic era the world has ever known. This luxury Mansion has many rooms… and many stories. Which will be yours?
