Frommer's "If post-industrial chic is your preferred style, consider staying at this newly opened boutique hotel lodged inside a 1930s warehouse near the Shiliupu Wharf." Full review

Be sure to request a room with a bath if that matters to you.
Concierge "The edgy, pared-back appeal of this former 1930s factory is exactly the draw for the modish, designer crowd that frequently books the 19-room boutique property."
Condé Nast Traveler99.6
"Singaporean design maestro... has skillfully captured the current zeitgeist of Shanghai by revamping a former army compound on the Huangpu River into an industrial but welcoming 19-room guesthouse." Full review
Time Out "The Waterhouse, a 1930s warehouse converted into a palace of industrial chic by local design superstars Neri & Hu, is possibly the coolest hotel in the city." Full review
BlackBook "While the rest of Shanghai pumps up the glamour, the Waterhouse at South Bund is smart to emphasize its low-key charm."
Travel + Leisure "Shanghai hotels tend toward the vertical and voluptuous, but one look at this austere lobby... and it’s clear the Waterhouse has broken the mold." Full review
Jetsetter "Warehouse turned minimalist marvel on the Bund draws cool creative types with its ultra-chic rooms and destination restaurant." Full review
Afar Magazine "The design blurs internal and external, public and private, with public spaces opening to glimpses of guest rooms, and accommodations looking onto public areas." Full review

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
