An Insider's Take
'This sleek Thompson property puts you right in the heart of Shanghai's former World Expo site, where futuristic architecture meets the bustling energy of China's financial capital.' What's Special? The hotel sits in the Pudong Expo area, surrounded by cutting-edge developments and just minutes from the iconic Shanghai skyline. As part of Hyatt's Privé program, guests enjoy exclusive perks like room upgrades, daily breakfast, and late checkout. The location offers easy access to both the historic Bund waterfront and the ultra-modern Lujiazui financial district.
WhatAHotel! Pro-Tip: Book an upper-floor room facing north for stunning views of the Huangpu River and the glittering Pudong skyline—especially magical at sunset when the city lights begin to twinkle.
Don't Miss Take the short trip to the nearby China Art Museum (housed in the former Expo pavilion) and explore the riverside Expo Park. The hotel's proximity to metro lines makes it a perfect base for discovering both sides of Shanghai—from traditional Yu Garden to the futuristic Oriental Pearl Tower.
