Enter Shangri-La Qiantan.
Shangri-La Qiantan: The epitome of design excellence
Located along the banks of the scenic Huangpu River, the New Bund International Business District, Shangri-La Qiantan puts you in close proximity to major attractions such as the Taikoo Li shopping mall, home to major luxury brands; and the Oriental Sports Center, which plays host to national entertainment and sports events.
Step into the hotel and you’ll find yourself in an oasis of sophistication and tranquillity. The chaos of the urban jungle melts away, enveloping you in the serenity of lush landscapes and soothing interiors. Designed with a fictional Shanghai neighbourhood in mind, the public areas flow through a series of “courts” with wide, open spaces interlinked via “laneways”. Moving from one area of the hotel to another is a seamless and delightful process, with each new space revealing itself gradually – from a lively marketplace peddling coffees and pastries to a charming tea lounge where one can unwind with a hot cuppa.
The sleek lines and harmonious blend of materials evoke a sense of contemporary luxury, while subtle nods to Chinese design traditions ground the structure in its cultural context. With painstaking attention to detail, the hotel effortlessly integrates modern functionality with classic luxury. The 28-story hotel offers 585 guestrooms and suites designed with modern aesthetics and user-friendly features. As a plus, most of the guestrooms offer a magnificent riverside view, allowing guests to enjoy the scenic beauty of the surroundings.
