Mandarin Oriental Pudong, Shanghai
Expert reviews
“Slightly tucked away from the Lùjiāzu five-star hotel melee in a sheltered riverside spot, the 362-room Mandarin Oriental is a visual feast, from the beautiful oval chandeliers and multicoloured glass murals in the lobby to the excellent dining choices.”
“This luxury hotel chain is a latecomer to the Shanghai market, but owners have used the time to size up the competition and open in 2013 with a great attention to detail. The Mandarin Oriental Pudong is the five-star Pudong-side hotel closest to the Huangpu River.”
Featured as Frommer’s Exceptional Choice in Shanghai.
“As you pull up to the new Mandarin Oriental Pudong, Shanghai, one thing is clear — you can successfully create a city hotel that feels like a secluded escape. While the classic Art Deco architecture dominates the city’s famous Bund, Shanghai’s Pudong side is increasingly more modern, and so is this Five-Star hotel.”
“Although the Mandarin Oriental’s location in the Lujiazui business district is better suited to busy execs, tourists willing to sacrifice a little bit of extra travelling time will likely be bowled over by the the hotel’s large ultra-luxurious rooms, extensive facilities and sterling service.”

I had a wonderful experience at Mandarin Oriental. Luigi was incredibly helpful and made getting around so much easier for me. The entire staff was warm, welcoming, and very friendly, which made me feel comfortable right away. Everything was spotless — super clean, neat, and well-kept. I truly appreciated the attention to detail and the great service. Highly recommended! 🌟

10/10 Stay
Had a wonderful stay at Mandarin Oriental Pudong Shanghai. The staff were exceptionally attentive and went above and beyond to help us settle in—from assisting with Meituan orders to keeping our room spotless multiple times a day. Service is truly top-notch. The location is fantastic as well, right by the Oriental Pearl Tower. Highly recommend!

The hotel, the facilities, the comfort
15-min drive to centre with.bustling streets. Not so much an issue, but you cannot just get out of the hotel and walk around. You need to take a taxi to the other side of the river. However, if this is not an issue, it is well within reach of everything

This is by far the nicest hotel we have stayed at. It is elegant without being in your face and rude. The staff was friendly without being pushy. We had every comfort necessary and loved the wide selection from room service. The breakfast downstairs in the hotel was busy but organized and offered the widest variety we have seen at any fine dining buffet we've been to. The tea service in the first floor lounge was very good. We would absolutely recommend this hotel for families.
Nothing. Hotel is perfect.

Extraordinary experience
Exceptional hotel. Wonderful large+clean room, which was in perfect condition, and the most meticulous turn down service I have ever experienced (my charging cables were carefully bound with a Mandarin Oriental branded cable tie, my suitcase was lovingly placed upon a soft mat). Also exceptionally great service at front desk by Luigi, who made sure our stay was perfect.

Special Thanks to Mr.Luigi.
It was a wonderful stay. The location, the room, the cleanliness, and the view were all beyond description. I must express my gratitude and thanks to Luigi. He was professional in his dealings, followed up on my reservation, and selected a wonderful room for me. He is also a wonderful and helpful person. I will be returning to Shanghai soon, and this hotel will be my first stop.

Usual Mandarin Oriental Service Level with helpful and professional staff. Was able to get flexibility on late check out and half day extra charge. Great breakfast.
Corridor heading to the room had bit of an unpleasant smell. Walking distance to the Pearl/The bund.

Great value for money, comfortable, very clean facilities and lovely staff.
This is one of the best hotels I’ve ever stayed at. The facilities were very clean, staff so professional and respectful. I loved the breakfast as it has variety of dishes you can choose from. The price was absolutely great compared to other 5-star hotels. Mandarin Oriental would be my destination if I’m ever returning to Shanghai, which most likely I would.

Fabulous stay
From check-in to check-out, the front-of-house staff at Mandarin Oriental exceeded all expectations. Warm, professional, and incredibly attentive, they made me feel truly valued as a guest. Whether it was providing local recommendations, assisting with bookings, or simply greeting with a smile every time I walked by, their dedication to guest satisfaction was clear in every interaction. Special thanks to Luigi Savarese who went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. From helping me download all the apps necessary for my first time in china , to helping me many times with my internet vpn connection , to recommending places where to go , etc ! Their hospitality set the tone for a memorable stay, and I would absolutely return based on this experience alone. Highly recommended!
I wish the breakfast had more variety of food and lasted a bit longer than 10:30 am! But the food was amazing.

Great experience, recommended!
Location wise, the hotel sets next to river boardwalk which has a jogging and cycling track, multiple restaurants and nice views towards shanghai sky line in addition to ferry station which is easy way to cross to river other side They have shuttle bus services that takes you anywhere within 2km from the hotel for free The staff were helpful and always available to assist Most if them speaks english and easy to communicate with We lost a package in the train station and they managed to get it back in less than 2 days The kids enjoyed the indoor swimming pool
Breakfast buffet was the only downside, same food everyday which wasnt great And the options were limited to someone who doesnt eat pork
