Shanghai Accommodations

With around 471 accommodations in Shanghai, searching for a place to sleep won't be a problem. But why wait around? Book early via Expedia and kick off your next cheap holiday or luxury getaway.

Kick-start the quest for an upmarket Shanghai base by looking into the amenities and rates at The Peninsula Shanghai (32 Zhongshan Dong Yi Road) and The Ritz-Carlton Shanghai, Pudong (Shanghai ifc No.8 Century Avenue). The Renaissance Shanghai Yangtze Hotel (2099 Yan An Xi Road) and the Four Points by Sheraton Shanghai, Pudong (No 2111 Pudong Nan Road) have good reviews if you want something more budget friendly.

Another great option is to stay near the Bund. You can do this by checking in at the Waldorf Astoria Shanghai on the Bund, which is only 0.4 miles (0.6 km) away. Also recommended is the Pudong Shangri-La East Shanghai, a mere 0.3 miles (0.5 km) away.

Nothing's more satisfying than finally arriving at Hongqiao International Airport (SHA) after a cramped flight. Once you've grabbed your baggage from the carousel and stretched your legs, you'll find yourself around 8 miles (13 km) from the main streets of Shanghai.
