Waldorf Astoria Shanghai Now Accepting Reservations

The Waldorf Astoria Shanghai, housed in the former 1920's Shanghai Club, is set to open the first of its two buildings later this summer. This anticipated gem, located on Shanghai's Bund, is currently accepting reservations for September 15 and beyond.

The Waldorf Astoria Club will house 20 suites done up in European style. Amenities will include walk-in closets, marble-finished bathrooms with double vanity, claw-foot bathtubs and separate showers, in-room entertainment and more. Ask about which rooms overlook the Bund and which views feature historic sites.

If you have dined at the Waldorf=Astoria New York, you will feel right at home at Waldorf Astoria Shanghai, where the dining will mirror the New York service. There will be two restaurants as well as a lounge and a bar. The Specialty Restaurant will serve New York-inspired American cuisine, while a Chinese Restaurant (located on the top floor) will serve regional Chinese cuisine.

The second building, the New Tower, will open later this year with 249 rooms.
