The Peninsula Shanghai - One Of The Top 10 Hotels In The World

June 2, 2017 by UNIQ Hotels

Location:

Shanghai China East Asia
Luxury

Ranked the number 8 hotel in the world by Travel + Leisure in 2015, The Peninsula Shanghai is located just a short walk from The Bund riverfront, and the nearest metro stop is just a ten-minute walk away. Sleek chrome fixtures, bright white fabrics paired with gold accents, and marble bathrooms give guests the feeling of true luxury in this hotel.

If you’re looking for an extremely attentive staff, look no further. Pill-hatted ‘pageboys’ run errands in a snap, and the concierge can gather experts for heritage walks and art tours at short notice. In addition, the hotel yacht (yes, they have their own yacht) can be hired for private river cruises, and the hotel’s own fleet of BMWs and Rolls-Royce Phantoms is available for airport transfers. So roll up to your flight in style!

Rooms are sophisticated but not overly lavish or gaudy. Elegantly styled with mood lighting, rooms are comfortable; fireplaces, private terraces, and grand pianos are peppered throughout the Peninsula Shanghai for guests to enjoy. The pool and spa also provide a great escape beneath a glass roof.

Three restaurants serve hungry guests at The Peninsula Shanghai. Travelers can also enjoy afternoon tea in The Lobby for a true cultural experience. At dusk, the outdoor terrace of Sir Elly’s is just the place to unwind with a handcrafted cocktail; don’t miss the light show that plays across the skyscrapers of Pudong. Finally, if you’re looking for traditional Cantonese cuisine, check out Yi Long Court, where food is fit for an emperor.

Ulaman Eco Luxury Resort - A Bamboo Sanctuary In The Tabanan Jungle

There's a version of "eco resort" that means a few solar panels and a sign about towel reuse. Ulaman is not that. This is a place where the walls are literally compressed earth, the staircases are woven bamboo, and there's a hand-carved wine cave hidden behind a stone wall that …

Copacabana Palace - The Grand Dame Still Throwing the Best Party on the Beach

A hotel got shot in the crossfire of a presidential scandal, hosted the first screen pairing of Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers, and somehow still manages to feel like the calmest place on one of the world's loudest beaches. That's Copacabana Palace in a nutshell: a century-old Art Deco block …

Auberge Aux 4 Vents - The Swiss Hotel Where You Can Take a Bath Outdoors - From the Second Floor

Between Fribourg's medieval rooftops and a park full of century-old beeches, a renovated 17th-century manor is doing something quietly remarkable. Auberge aux 4 Vents is not a boutique hotel in the algorithmic sense - all reclaimed wood and oat milk. It is something older and stranger: a patrician country manor …

Somewhere in the Charente countryside of southwest France, on a 1,000-hectare (2,500-acre) estate of forests, lakes, and open pastureland, there is a tennis court floating on a pond. There is also a 13th-century castle tower where you can sleep beneath a glass ceiling and look up at the stone ribs …

Hana-Maui Resort, a Destination by Hyatt Residence - The Far Side of Maui

Most resorts want you to stay on property. Hana-Maui Resort wants you to stay in a different way entirely - unhurried, untethered, and largely offline. Rooms here have no televisions, no alarm clocks, and in some cases no radios. The spa uses heated lava rocks and Hawaiian healing traditions that …

Most hotels describe themselves as historic. Palacio del Inka was a palace, then a Spanish colonial mansion, then a museum, and is now asking if you'd like a pisco sour. The stones - massive, fitted without mortar with an Incan precision that has outlasted earthquakes - belonged to Qorikancha, the …
