BlackBook "As much as Shanghai has become a nerve center of freewheeling high finance, the Andaz is expecting its guests to get in lots of play time."
Forbes Travel Guide Recommended
"The luxurious Andaz Shanghai is located in the glitzy Xintiandi district... but maintains a boutique feel with a casual yet buzzy atmosphere and approachable service." Full review
Condé Nast Traveler "A super-chic 28-story hotel with 307 rooms, across the street from the Xintiandi shopping and eating hub." Full review
Jetsetter "Hip hotel in a historic ’hood, with an LED-lit pool, an all-day bistro and downtown views from jigsaw-cut windows." Full review
Travel + Leisure "A contemporary hotel with a youthful feel in downtown Shanghai, it's a stone's throw away from the shopping mecca of Huaihai Road and the peaceful, yet disappearing, Shikumen communities." Full review
Afar Magazine "Features 307 rooms with wood floors, boldly upholstered walls, and what Andaz calls DigiValets—iPads that control room functions such as lighting, temperature, and curtains." Full review
Fodor's "This stylish boutique hotel offers the usual Andaz freebies like tea and coffee in the reception and free soft drinks and snacks in the minibar." Full review
Frommer's "The location is perfect for experiencing the city, as you’ll sleep in a little urban retreat but step right outside into the bustling Xintiandi development." Full review
Lonely PlanetTop choice
"Housed in one of the twin skyscrapers just north of Xīntiāndì, Andaz (meaning ‘personal style’ in Hindi) is among the latest luxury hotels to open in the French Concession." Full review
Michelin Guide "The rooms are gorgeous...an extremely well-equipped gym, spa and pool will keep you in fine trim, but it’s the restaurant, bar and lounge that you’ll want to show off." Full review

Concierge "This twin-towered property doesn't get the 'Grand' title because there's already a Grand Hyatt nearby, however it's certainly of Grand Hyatt standard, but with a more contemporary deluxe style."
Fodor's "Near the banks of Suzhou Creek, the Hyatt on the Bund offers beautifully appointed rooms in an airy and modern building." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Grab drinks at Vue Bar, on the top floor, for sweeping views of both Pudong and the Bund." Full review
Condé Nast Traveler83.2
""Within walking distance of the Bund," this geometric tower with a pointed apex has "spacious, elegant" rooms—makore-wood panels, silk-textured wallpaper, jade-colored ceramics." Full review
Star Service "At the far end of Shanghai's waterfront stretch known as The Bund, this sparkling high-rise hotel is the second Shanghai property from Hyatt and the first on the Puxi side of the Huangpu River." Full review

Alternatively, some may choose to split their time in Shanghai between the two, and such packages are conveniently available.
Time Out "With its position in southern Hongkou district, Hyatt on the Bund boasts stunning views south to the Bund and Pudong, especially from Vue Bar on the 32nd floor." Full review
BlackBook "The vast lobby feels a bit like walking into a merchant bank HQ, but the rooms are well-equipped and offer superlative views."
The Telegraph8.0
"Built as a Grand Hyatt but ultimately given a unique (and not quite accurate) title, this buzzy twin-towered hotel offers 620 contemporary rooms 'not far from the Bund'." Full review
Condé Nast Traveler "Designed by in-demand Japanese firm Super Potato, Hyatt on the Bund's top-floor lounge bar is exotically styled as an upscale vineyard. Dressed in blond woods, bare bricks, and neon-lit..." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Relax in bed and enjoy the views of Shanghai's incredible skyline and the Bund from the floor-to-ceiling windows...step outside the hotel's front doors to go for a stroll along the Huangpu River"
