EXCLUSIVE HOTEL
The last new major construction to be built on the historic bund was the grand Bank of China, completed in 1937. So you may well expect this new hotel to be rather special. And you will not be disappointed. The Peninsula is the flagship of the Hong Kong and Shanghai chain, and their most exclusive hotel on the whole of mainland China.
The décor is an inspired, contemporary take on classic Art Deco; smooth lines and rounded furniture are complemented by the subtle tones, black lacquer and polished woods used in stylish 1920s Shanghai residences. Make The Peninsula one of the destinations on your luxury, tailor-made holiday to China and you’ll also enjoy five restaurants and bars, a pool, an Aviation Lounge, an ultra-indulgent spa and The Peninsula’s shopping arcade.

From the first conversation to the final day of our trip, Catherine and the team were helpful, efficient and easy to reach. Their recommendations not only improved our original plans but also made the whole holiday more cost-effective. Even when we needed assistance while away, their response was immediate. We wouldn’t hesitate to travel with them again.
