BlackBook "The vast lobby feels a bit like walking into a merchant bank HQ, but the rooms are well-equipped and offer superlative views."

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"
