Fairmont Peace Hotel On The Bund, Shanghai

Really love the Art Deco interior design of the hotel, the courteous staff & the fabulous service. Love the Hi-Tea dance hosted on Sunday afternoon.

Stayed Room 657……didn’t like the long walk to our room! Understand it’s an old property & that can’t be helped! 😃

This is the so-called number 1 hotel in China from the historical perspective so we decided to stay there when visiting Shanghai for F1 Grand Prix. It goes without saying the location is at the hub of Shanghai, right next to 外灘 and 南京路. The subway station is also 2 blocks away within walking distance. The servants and concierge staff are top-notched, very experienced, friendly, and enthusiastic in helping. The dinner at 龍鳳廳 is a must-have if you're into Shanghainese cuisine. There is a museum inside the hotel demonstrating the history of this hotel that accommodated many presidents and leaders from all over the world since the 1920s.

The interior has wear-and-tear here and there, though they manage to keep it pretty clean. The jazz band (recommended by the hotel) is overrated (a a bit overpriced for their performance).

Great central location, historical building, great service

view from room wasn't great, should have upgraded to a higher floor/ river view

Location and staff

Nothing

Amazing hotel, location and heritage.

Facilities could be a bit newer for price

Everything was wonderful: the reception, customer service, the room, and its cleanliness. All the staff were extremely helpful. I forgot my bag in a taxi, and the hotel staff did everything they could to recover it, and I did indeed get it back.

The elevators did not smell good. I kindly request installing air fresheners or scent diffusers.

Lovely hotel, exactly what you would expect from one of the city's premium long established hotels. Staff were incredibly helpful and polite and rooms fantastic. Breakfast was also great.

Bar facilities for a hotel of this calibre were a little disappointing - could do with a larger facility in addition to the jazz bar - which was good, but not every evening.

The location is excellent, right on the Bund with great views.
The room was comfortable and clean, and the staff were professional and helpful throughout the stay.

The overall experience was very good, but the price feels a bit high compared to what is offered.
Some facilities could benefit from minor updates.

Everything was perfect staff,services, location and high quality of customer

Only if diffuser be placed in the floor corridors to solve the kitchen smell

Service, helpful staff and location.

Nil.

The hotel is in an excellent location, being very close to the Bund. Staff and facilities were very good. Breakfast very good. Bedroom very comfortable. Staff were very helpful.

The restaurant was very expensive and there wasn't another option, so we did in room dining.

Absolutely fabulous!

Bed super comfy and great spot close to all the action

The staff was friendly, polite, and extremely helpful in helping us navigate around Shanghai.

The bar had a minimum fee of $420CNY. I was unable to have just a drink, as I would in almost every hotel in the world.

The breakfast was superb and delicious with a great choice. Room service meal was a little pricey but beautifully presented. We we’re disappointed we could not get into the chinese restaurant but had dinner in the peace hall with uncomfortable chairs and no ambiance.

The history of the hotel is rich. We live the renovation style, suits the property perfectly. The location is great. Staff are excellent.

Location is superb , staffs is very attentive

Restaurant difficult to book, food sold out and still take us in.

A flawless 5-night family stay (18–23 September) at this living Art Deco museum, Fairmont Peace Hotel exceeded every expectation. Our Fairmont King Room felt like an elegant apartment at 49m², with a super-king bed, even larger than advertised, luxurious finishes, and immaculate twice-daily housekeeping. The hotel’s heritage tours made the history come alive (don’t miss them!), and there were charming nooks to discover everywhere. Location is unbeatable, directly opposite the Bund and moments from the main shopping strip yet the interiors are serenely quiet. We loved the Jazz Bar, and the gym and pool were top-notch, but it was the service that truly made our stay: every staff member was warm and proactive, and a special thank-you to Alexander, who checked in on us throughout our stay and even arranged a private tour. The team graciously accommodated a late checkout for our evening flight and made it effortless when we decided to add an extra night.

Everything was perfect, we only wish we’d stayed longer. Tip for future guests: book a longer stay; you won’t be disappointed!

Historical hotel, location, classy rooms, excellent services, worthy of $$$$$

At pricy side.

Wonderful stay !
Staying at the Fairmont Peace Hotel was like stepping into living history, with every detail reflecting Shanghai’s golden age of art deco elegance. The building itself is a masterpiece — beautifully preserved and filled with character, from its grand lobby to the iconic rooftop views over the Bund.

The staff were exceptional — warm, attentive, and consistently going above and beyond to ensure my stay was seamless. Every request was handled with both efficiency and genuine kindness, making me feel truly welcome.

Dining at the Dragon Phoenix Restaurant was another highlight. The atmosphere carries the spirit of 1930s Shanghai, and the food was both refined and deeply satisfying. The service was polished yet personable, adding to the sense of occasion.

The Peace Hotel isn’t just a place to stay; it’s an experience — where history, luxury, and heartfelt hospitality come together. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to not only enjoy comfort, but also to feel the cultural heartbeat of Shanghai.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Nothing

The property is clean and the location is fantastic and the history value of this hotel is nowhere to be compared. Peace hotel is one and only :)

Nothing about the hotel that i don’t like.

The ambience, still kept its history and identity.

The restaurant staff

Great location. Friendly helpful staff.

what is there not to like sir/ma’am, an iconic skyscraper on the bund.

the swimming pool could have been better

This is a classic historic hotel, beautifully furnished w excellent service. An English-speaking staff that are extremely helpful. In my case connecting to Alipay, the Chinese payment system. The room was large, well appointed, and comfortable. Breakfast is anything you could ask for from any nationality of food. The location is right on the Bund so your experience starts when you walk out the door of the hotel.
