 | |  |  | St. Regis Shanghai: The Absolute Best Service in Shanghai..... | Tip Rating:   Satisfaction:  |  |  | |  |
I booked a room for one week (between the time I arrived in Shanghai and moved into a permanent residence). After the first day there, I was seriously reconsidering my decision to leave so soon (or at all). The St. Regis is a luxury, 5-star hotel in PuDong - the new part of Shanghai. If you don't necessarily need to be in PuXi (the old city across the river), or if you don't mind a little longer cab ride to meetings in PuXi, then my advice is stay here and nowhere else. The rooms are comfortable, and the desks even have an Aeron chair (nice touch). The bathrooms are plush (see the photo). And, best of all, you have access to your own personal 24-hour valet that will do anything (within reason) at any hour of the day or night. I stayed in a club-level room (recommended) and received complimentary breakfast and afternoon h'ors d'oeuvres and cocktails overlooking the city from the 39th floor from 5:30-7:30pm. I didn't use the spa service, gym, or pool, but from what I heard, these are also excellent. The St. Regis is a tad pricey, but if you have some extra cash available (or are travelling on a business acount) do yourself a favor and stay here.

| | | | Pacific Hotel Shanghai: Pacific Hotel (3*) | Tip Rating: Satisfaction:  | | | | |
This is my second review of the Pacific Hotel, to specifically review the 'new extension' (3rd floor rooms). The Pacific must be the best value hotel in Shanghai, and while the large rambling rooms in the main hotel building are very much 3-star, the newer rooms in the 3rd floor extension at the back of the hotel are definitely 4-star in quality, 3-star in price! Yes they are bland and modern, and lacking in atmosphere but they are squeakly clean, have international TV, more space than usual in a Shanghai hotel, well air-conditioned, and the shower and bathroom is excellent! Given that the Pacific looks out onto Renmin Square, is steps away from a Metro station, has taxis waiting outside night and day....all for less than RMB500 and this has to be Shanghai's best bargain. The restaurants at the hotel are below-par, but there are plenty of great places nearby. The higher numbered 3rd floor rooms (329 to 336) face a building site at the moment, and the lower 3rd floor rooms have absolutely no view at all, but at this price who cares. If you want a view, the room savings would allow you to eat each night at the Hyatt at the Jin Mao Tower.
