Please be rational when adding to your wish list.
🏡Name: Shanghai Garden Hotel
💟The high-ceilinged lobby and gorgeous chandelier
make you feel like you've traveled back in time. The front desk staff are warm and professional. They quickly checked me in and patiently introduced me to the hotel's facilities and nearby attractions. I felt very cared for. ❤️
💟The rooms are spacious and bright, and the decor is warm and comfortable.
The decor is a perfect blend of modern and classic. The furniture is well placed and the space is used very efficiently. The bed 🛏️ is soft and supportive. Lying on it, the fatigue of the day instantly dissipates. The soundproofing in the room is also great. Even if the outside is bustling, once the window is closed, the room is still quiet as if time has stopped. ⏳
💟The dining options are also impressive.
The breakfast is rich and varied, with Chinese buns, fried dough sticks, porridge, Western pastries, salads 🥗, fried eggs, etc., which can meet the taste needs of different people. The restaurant environment is elegant, and the waiters will replenish food and clean the table in time 👍🏻, making the dining process particularly pleasant. I also tried the hotel's Chinese restaurant. The dishes are authentic and pure, the ingredients are fresh, and each dish is like a carefully carved artwork, which is memorable. 😋
💟The hotel's leisure facilities also surprised me.
The gym is well-equipped and well-maintained, allowing me to maintain my exercise habits during the trip. The indoor swimming pool is clear and the water temperature is suitable. After swimming 🏊🏻♀️ a few laps, I felt relaxed both physically and mentally. The hotel's garden landscape is a major highlight. Walking in it, admiring various flowers and plants 🪴, breathing fresh air, I feel like I am in a paradise. 🌸

Shanghai Garden Hotel
This trip, I chose to stay at the famous Garden Hotel located on South Maoming Road in Shanghai. This hotel was one of the few foreign-invested five-star luxury hotels in Shanghai during the 1980s and 1990s, and it also carries nearly a century of Shanghai's cultural history, making it highly significant. The original site of the Garden Hotel was purchased by the French Municipal Council in an auction in the early 20th century, and the new French Club was completed in 1926. After World War II, the Shanghai Municipal Government took over the original French Club and used it as the Municipal Cultural Club. In 1985, Nomura Securities invested in and developed the current Garden Hotel, which officially opened in 1990.
The exterior architectural style of the hotel's podium (the original site of the French Club) is predominantly French Baroque, although some decorative elements are simplified. For example, the rose window tracery and the lintel above the windows on the podium, as well as the volutes of the Ionic columns and the Romanesque arches of the second-floor porch, are classic Baroque architectural elements. The marble flooring in the lobby also imitates Baroque style, while the ceiling, walls, and columns' decorations, and the tiled flooring of the exhibition hall corridors lean towards Art Deco style, mainly reflected in the extensive use of brass decorative materials. The guest room tower was developed and built by Nomura Securities, and the wall, ceiling, and carpet decorations in the guest room corridors clearly lean towards Japanese folk style. This includes the partition wall facing the elevator, which adds privacy and reflects the traditional Eastern subtlety in spatial expression, preventing a direct view of the guest room corridor as soon as one exits the elevator.
Briefly discussing the guest room layout, the standard rooms of the Garden Hotel still follow the typical star-rated hotel room layout of that time, maintaining a fixed ratio of about 2:7 between the bathroom and the bedroom. Currently, hotel design standards have been updated, and most new luxury hotels no longer adhere to past standards, making the bathroom space more spacious, sometimes even achieving a 1:1 ratio with the bedroom space.

My Hotel Diary | Shanghai Garden Hotel | Stay in the Elegance of a Century-old Building
| Shanghai Garden Hotel | Stay in the Elegance of a Century-old Building.
"One of the meanings of travel, for me, is to experience the Chill feeling brought by different hotels"
Hotel 2, Shanghai Garden Hotel 🏨🏨
I love the magic city, and I love staying in old buildings with a century of history.
So, I stayed in the Baroque-style Shanghai Garden Hotel that I had been longing for ☑️☑️
Between the small Western-style houses and old alleys of Huaihai Road, this hotel, originally designed as the "French Club" by a French architect in 1926, boasts a beautifully secluded private back garden with lush greenery and an elegant atmosphere. It is one of the earliest luxury hotels in Shanghai.
I enjoy walking at night 👣👣, the warm yellow night light tinting the building, as if stepping into the staggered time of an old movie 🎦🎦
What is praiseworthy, besides the historical and cultural heritage of this European-style building, is the quality of the hotel's service ✍🏻✍🏻
The hotel is managed by the Japanese Okura Hotels Group, and the staff are friendly and courteous. While queuing to check in, as long as there is eye contact, they will immediately come over and softly ask you to please wait patiently. In the end, even though we were next in line to check in, the manager took us directly to the office to complete the check-in process.
✍🏻✍🏻 Our family of three stayed in a deluxe king room. When booking, we noted that there were three adults, and the hotel added a single bed in the room. The room was arranged on a high floor, overlooking the lush green garden. The room has an old-fashioned luxury style, with full marks for details, from the simple baseboards to various brass signs, all showing the hotel's meticulous management.
🌈🌈 Yes, you must try the butter cookies. You can buy a mix of two flavors, orange peel and raisins (hotel guests can purchase directly with their room card). I prefer the raisin flavor, and it must be refrigerated to taste the buttery, creamy texture like ice cream (the calories are a bit evil 😆😆)

Experience old Shanghai by choosing this hotel, the experience is fantastic
For a taste of vintage Shanghai, the Shanghai Garden Hotel, managed by Tokyo's Okura Hotels, is a five-star establishment located in the city center, south of the bustling Huaihai Road shopping street. The unique large garden, the skirt building renovated from the original French club, and the newly built main building complement each other. French Baroque decorative art and modern decor enhance each other. The Garden Hotel, a designer hotel, has 500 luxurious suites including a presidential suite. Each room is equipped with modern central air conditioning, closed-circuit television, refrigerator, mini-bar, and marble bathroom. The Western restaurant, cafe, Chinese restaurant, and Japanese restaurant offer authentic delicacies to guests from all walks of life. The 3 bars are places for relaxation and socializing. The Garden Hotel also has 11 well-equipped banquet halls of various sizes and a full range of entertainment services. The Garden Hotel's dining establishment includes five restaurants and three bars. You can meet and relax at the 'Oasis' lobby bar, chat privately or discuss business as you wish; feel the French romance at the 'Yelai Xiang' bar with a panoramic view of the large garden, relaxed and comfortable; or gaze into the distance at the sky lounge, sipping fine wine, relaxing with the flow of light and shadow. For breakfast the next day, you have a choice of buffet or Japanese style, and as a Japanese hotel, there is a counter full of Japanese rice balls, sushi, fish slices, etc. The variety is not extensive, but the taste is the standard five-star fare.

Shanghai Garden Hotel | A representative of Shanghai's French flair
Before liberation, this was the French Club.
The east-west elongated old building has been preserved and now serves as the main entrance to the Garden Hotel. The not overly complex Baroque-style architecture connects to the towering new main building of the hotel behind it, creating a unique opening statement among the old western-style hotel buildings in the center of Shanghai.
This is an unmistakable French style.
Today, the hotel has been open for 31 years.
Even though the hotel's management is by Japan's Okura Group, and Japanese capital from Nomura Securities also played a significant role in the hotel's construction, Shanghai's old state-owned enterprise Jinjiang Group still casts a very strong local presence behind it.
The room didn't give me a love-at-first-sight impression. But after staying, the proper service and solid hardware standards gradually wore away my stubbornness. Especially considering the quite reasonable price-performance ratio here—a deluxe room for 700+/night. And the basic room type: superior room, is generally in the range of 500-600/night, which is much cheaper compared to similar hotels in the vicinity.

Shanghai Laoqian Xinqian Hotel
Shanghai Laoqian Xinqian Hotel
P2-7 Opartment (formerly Far East Hotel)
A very windy hotel in 23 years, finally managed to book a terrace room on Thursday. Standing on the third-floor terrace to view the night scene of Tibet Middle Road is just awesome. The location and service are really good, and it's quite convenient for taking taxis, shopping, and drinking. The only downside is that the rooms are so small haha
BTW, Crave is right downstairs, you can go there for a cinnamon roll when you wake up
P8-11 Kempinski
This is the most grandiose of the three, with a large lobby, elevators, and rooms. Booked a river view room, if the view is a bit off, you can ask the front desk to switch to a more direct one, next to the suite. The facilities feel quite dated, the wall switches give off a Nokia vibe, the prices are not high recently, and it's really worth staying.
P12-18 Garden Hotel
It is said that this hotel was managed by Japanese before, the rooms are not big but you can tell they are exquisite. The lighting is just right, and no matter how you take photos, they turn out great. The red escalator has just the right impact. If you don't reserve Bai Tuo cookies in advance, you can only buy one box per room. The first time I tasted them, I was anxiously waiting in the hospital waiting area all morning, so naturally, I found them amazing. A friend also brought a box of chocolates, which saved my mood for the day
Related recommendation: This hotel in Shanghai is worth a visit

You really don't know? 'Blooming Flowers' was filmed in this hotel!
Shanghai Garden Hotel is located in the former French Concession of Shanghai,
It is a century-old building,
In those days, it was one of the most prosperous places in Shanghai.
Here witnessed countless stories,
There are love, friendship, joys and sorrows.
Some people meet here, some people say goodbye here,
Some people wait here, some people reminisce here.
With the hot broadcast of the TV series 'Blooming Flowers',
The once prosperous landmark shooting location,
Has once again become the focus of everyone's attention.
And Shanghai Garden Hotel is one of them.
In 1926, designed by French architects,
It integrates the artistic essence of Baroque architecture,
The ultimate expression of neoclassical style and decorative art
Made it the most eye-catching 'French Club' on Xiafei Road at that time.
The turbulent tide of the times also added stories about this building.
The start of the Garden Hotel in 1986,
The perfect integration of the new 33-story building and the old club building,
Also made it one of the main scenes of the story of 'Blooming Flowers'.
Mr. Wong Kar-wai, the Shanghai-born director of 'Blooming Flowers',
He lived in the Garden Hotel for a long time in the 90s.
Perhaps it was the inspiration the hotel gave him,
Or the temperament of Shanghai itself,
Gave birth to this TV series.
The moment I stepped into Shanghai Garden Hotel,
The first impression it gave me,
It is the European architectural style and friendly service.
The hotel's elegant double staircase in the east entrance hall and the banquet hall on the second floor: Baihua Hall,
It shows the sense of the times and art of traditional historical buildings.
And Shanghai Garden Hotel is currently co-operated with a Japanese hotel group,
So it also embodies the Japanese 'people-oriented' intimate service,
Reflected in every aspect from the room.
Shanghai Garden Hotel has a total of 5 restaurants and 3 bars,
French food, Japanese food and Cantonese food can satisfy the taste buds of all visitors.
I experienced the 'European Restaurant' mainly based on French cuisine,
Located on the top floor of the 33rd floor, it has an excellent dining view.
The French cuisine managed by the Japanese chef,
Stick to the authenticity of French cuisine, but also integrate the delicacy of Japanese style.
Garden homemade foie gras sauce with beef clear soup jelly,
The beef and foie gras sauce are fragrant but not greasy.
Grilled sea bass with fresh tomato sauce
The grilled sea bass retains the freshness of seafood,
The sour and sweet of tomatoes has achieved the effect of flavor enhancement.
The main course French iron steak,
The chef skillfully cooks the steak to 5 minutes,
Take a bite, the meat is tender and soft, and the aroma and oil juice spread in the mouth.
The puff pastry cream vegetable soup, mojito frost and
The cream coffee pudding with vanilla ice cream for dessert
As a French side dish, they are all top choices.
The night in Shanghai is intoxicating,
After the meal, you can directly go to the sky lounge next to the restaurant,
Looking at the night view, taste different cocktails.
And the bar here is also one of the filming locations of 'Blooming Flowers',
The pearl curtain partition that makes the space hazy,
Reflects the current thoughts of the protagonist A Bao.
Or go to the Night Fragrance Bar on the 3rd floor.
Experience the historical appearance of the French club of the year,
Feel the style of night Shanghai.
It is said that Director Wong Kar-wai also stored 3 bottles of wine here
It can be seen that the director is so fond of this hotel.
Shanghai Garden Hotel,
It is a century-old building with countless stories,
Here I am just a passerby,
I can't shoot a TV series as good as 'Blooming Flowers'
What I can do is to record the experience of the hotel,
Share with you.

Shanghai / Old School Hotel Garden Hotel
Shanghai / Old School Hotel Garden Hotel
Stayed for two nights, leaving plenty of time, a person in the hotel to appreciate, read the details of this 1926 building.
Beautiful mosaic patterns, the beauty of the stairs up and down, the elevator bathroom is full of warm order. Many details can be savored. Can live, can travel, can eat. However, going to the rooftop bar at night, the lights show a sense of age, but it does not affect the overall good impression it gives me.
The old hotel is well maintained, the service is not disturbing, and it is appropriate and thoughtful. Quiet, clean, close to the city, all are high scores.
There are many restaurants and bars such as Chun, Maolong, Beef Restaurant, Huan Tao Cafeteria and so on on the street side of Maomin South, Jinxian Road. It is very important not to worry about eating and drinking, and it is convenient to go shopping in any city. On a business trip, it was very cold on the road, so I went back to the hotel to work.
This time I was also planted by my old school girl Faye Da Fei. It has a long aftertaste and is worth experiencing and learning. Suitable for the current modern lifestyle is the basis, the price is reasonable, the size is exquisite, the classic is mild, the longer the new, the design space that is not easily affected by the trend. It is destined to be loved by people of different ages for a long time.
"Old school" is a gimmick. Good quality, considerate design and service, and the constant pursuit of beauty are the common sense formulas for "good".

Shanghai Garden Hotel
I went to Shanghai in mid-August to watch A-Mei's concert and take the opportunity to play in Shanghai. I wanted to choose a hotel with a better environment. After much consideration, I chose this Garden Hotel. The location of the hotel is excellent, very close to Huaihai Road, and it only takes a few minutes to walk to the subway station. If you want to go to Sinan Mansion, it's about 2 kilometers away, which is also very convenient. The view from the main building is good, the exterior of the building is particularly beautiful, and the garden is quite large. The breakfast is especially rich, with many varieties and good taste. I stayed for four nights and didn't get tired of the breakfast. I like bedding that is a bit hard, and their beds and pillows are super comfortable, and I can sleep until dawn. The only downside is that the shower head is a bit small, but there is a bathtub. There are many delicious foods nearby, and you can walk to Moller Villa in about 10 minutes. The standard of their service personnel feels very high, worthy of five stars.

Shanghai | Garden Hotel, originally the French Club
🚗Shanghai Garden Hotel, opened in 1990, is managed by the world-renowned Okura Hotel Group. The hotel is located in the quiet downtown Maoming South Road, adjacent to the bustling Huaihai Road.
🚗Garden Hotel (Shanghai) has 5 restaurants, 3 bars, allowing you to taste food from all over the world. There are 6 banquet halls of large, medium and small sizes on the second floor, all of which are converted from the old buildings of the original French Club, retaining the artistic style of French classical decoration, showing elegance and style, allowing guests to appreciate your extraordinary taste. Particularly worth mentioning is the Baihua Hall on the east side of the second floor, which is the essence of the historical architecture of the Garden Hotel. Its greatest charm is the dome light in the shape of a ship's bottom in the center of the hall, made of colored glass. When the light shines through the colored glass, the entire banquet hall is instantly colorful and misty. The rare height of more than 7 meters makes the entire hall extraordinary. This is the first choice for hosting large-scale events, and various new product launches and fashion shows are also frequently held here. The relief decorations around, the floor-to-ceiling windows, and the theater-style boxes all show extraordinary aristocratic temperament without losing romance, so she has also witnessed countless new couples stepping into the hall of happiness.
🚗It's pretty good, there is a large garden inside, it can be considered a model of tranquility in the bustling city. You can go in and take a look.

The Magic City's blooming version of Citywalk is online
Follow the blooming flowers around Shanghai, from the renovated Cathay Cinema, passing by the Garden Hotel, the Lanhua Grand Theatre, and finally arriving at Jinxian Road. The Wen Restaurant on Jinxian Road has actually closed down, replaced by the Figure 8 Chaoshan Cold Seafood Restaurant. I can't help but recall Wong Kar-wai's words on Weibo: The world has changed, but the flowers are still blooming. Also, I would like to add: Jinxian Road does not have Night Tokyo, only Night Fragrance ends at No. 240, there is no No. 248.

The Shanghai Garden Hotel is well photographed
I've been to the fountain outside the Garden Hotel n times.
This time I took a picture of the stairs inside, it's very retro!

ELLA GREER
The exquisite life of old-school Shanghainese
As a child, I passed by the Garden Hotel in Shanghai countless times, always wanting to try it when I grew up. This time, by chance, I stayed here and really liked it. The Garden Hotel is very close to Jinxian Road, with decades-old small shops such as Chun Restaurant and Maolong Restaurant. It is said that Mr. Jin Yucheng, who wrote Blossoms, also likes Jinxian Road, with its bustling, steaming atmosphere.
As a person who often stays in hotels, my recent feeling is that, whether it's a brand or any service industry, if it can survive for decades and still have uninterrupted old customers, it must be a quality that won't step on mines. Just like dealing with people, time is the only standard that doesn't lie.
The Garden Hotel was rebuilt on the basis of the French Club in 1926, so it has a French-style exterior and a very beautiful garden fountain. In the 90s, it was taken over by Japan's Okura and became the Shanghai Garden Hotel, with an interior style that is very 90s Japanese. At first glance, it seems ordinary now, but if you stay and observe some design details, it's really charming. From the ultra-simple skirting line, air conditioning vent, embedded shower pipe and various brass signs, to the public telephone area, Chinese and Western restaurants, spiral staircase, etc., even the name of the restaurant is likable. Those card phones scattered in the corners of the hotel, although out of date, are well maintained. Pick up the handset, it's fully functional, and you can still dial a long-forgotten phone number.
The hotel's Rose Café, with its beautiful mosaic floor, is perfect for dancing. The name is retro and pleasing, reminding me of Huang Meigui, the charming heroine of Yi Shu's 'The Story of Roses'. However, it's a pity that I didn't get to try their famous white tuile cookies, so I'll keep a little longing.
