First, there is a huge construction project going on around this hotel and it will continue for years. There are some highlights like the pool area on the top floor where you can see for miles and this is nice at night. People go there for the night time view. The location is right next to a large market (Old... more

Good breakfast: Lots of choice and quality food 3. Friendly staff 4. Just 5 minutes walk to the famous yuyuan. Very convenient to go to Xin Tin Di and other attractions. A... more

Stayed here in mid march for 3 nights followed by 1 night at the Grand Hyatt Pudong. If you're in shanghai for holiday i would definitely suggest the renaissance. Room rooms are clean and 5 star quality Concierge good English and helpful - know where you want to go as they will mostly suggest western restaurants. For some good suggestions... more

Wow!!! This was an awesome hotel. I loved the modern décor of the common areas and the hotel rooms. The only thing was the color of the rug – it’s very bright and doesn’t really go well with everything. I read the review about how small the size of the rooms were – I completely disagree. The rooms were ample-sized... more

Our 3-night accommodation at Renaissance Yuyuan was booked as a package with Dragonair as they were in some sort of promotional partnership. Included in the package were free airport transfers operated by the hotel exclusively for KA passengers. However, only upon our arrival at the Pudong Airport we realised that the transfer was not operated frequently like on hourly basis... more

This hotel is great because it is all new and a modern (if a bit bright) style. The location is just south of the Bund and a quick cab drive from all the action. My room had a great view. The gym is poor, but the breakfast buffet is great. There was hardly anyone at the hotel while I was... more

We have just returned from China and wish to share our experience at this hotel. First we booked everything on line on the Marriott website. We were able to cancel up to 24hrs prior if need be. One week before our arrival I received and email from them confirming my booking to which I replied in the affirmative with an... more

The checkin to checkout my experience was a good one. I gave it one less star than full marks simply because of the surrounding traffic. There is ALOT of construction going around this hotel for the new subway lines. Probably why I got it so cheap. Price Stayed 4 nights@103USD including breakfast. I booked with Asia Rooms. My original online... more

We stayed in the Ren. Yuyuan for two nights in late Nov. 2007. We booked using a combination of Marriott points and the 1,200RMB introductory rate for the new hotel. I would say that at this rate, it was a very good value for Puxi, Shanghai. Location was excellent - a few hundred meters away from the Westin Bund Center,... more
