The reason I chose the hotel was its location - close to the Bund and the historical sites in the vicinity. While I did not have much to complain on the location at all, I was offended by the lack of courtesy displayed to a guest checking in - there was not even a basic greeting. The room itself was...

Room was comfortable. Employees were friendly. That's the good part. There is no wifi in the rooms and the wifi in the lobby is extremely slow. The location is good, not far from Nanjing Road and the Bund, but it's really annoying that there are dodgy people lingering around (at one point even on the stairs at the hotel entrance,... More

Great location, central. Bar area in foyer which makes it a nice waiting area. Great, cosy restaurant on the 16th floor and menu allows for some relief of Asian food. Breakfast not great. In-house tailor. Friendly service and great rooms. Great view.

Hi, I am the author of "Moments in Time-a collection of short stories", which are based on overseas experiences. Hence I have travelled extensively. I would have to rate this hotel as one of the best I have stayed in. Excellent value for money. The buffet breakfast more than satisfies the European taste buds. The rooms are spacious with amazing... More

I found this hotel on trip advisor and I'm so glad I did as I wanted a hotel close to Nanjing Rd Shopping and this place was only minutes walk to the shopping strip. We were upgraded to a better room as they booked us incorrectly which was very nice of the staff. We had a huge room with a... More

All-in-all, I would have been all-in four stars for the RB. However, I think their beds are made of granite. Was as bad as the beds I slept on in Hanoi in a 12 dollar a night room. Otherwise, the room was large, clean and fairly comfortable. The lobby is a bustling noisy place, and the wifi is ONLY in... More

At the end of a two-week visit to China, we spent two days in Shanghai. It was so nice to have The Bund Riverside as our home. The location is equidistance between the historic riverfront with the amazing sky-scraper views across the river and Shanghai's main shopping district. Each are only a few blocks away from The Bund Riverside. The... More
