“Historical gem”

Grand old Colonial hotel across the Garden Bridge from the Bund. I stayed in the President Grant and Charles Chaplin celebrity rooms. Great experience. Buffet breakfast with Chinese and Western foods outstanding.

“a beauty of the past century”

the decor is beautiful I loved the polished floorboards throughout and the brass accessories in the bedroom. rooms are comfortable and clean, little touches such as the weather forecast for the following day left on your side-table are very much appreciated. the whole thing makes you expect some Agatha Christie characters to come up any moment! the location is very convenient too within walking distance of the Bund and East Nanjing road metro station. definitely a great place to stay

“Consistent Comfort in Shanghai”

I have stayed at the Astor House five times within the past two years and have never been dissatisfied with the service or quality of the hotel. While the rooms are nothing fancy, they are always clean and comfortable, and the staff there will help with any problems that might arise. I speak Chinese, but it seems that most staff members are conversant enough in English to assist their guests. The Richards Bar on the first floor offers the cheapest internet access that I've ever found in a Chinese hotel, and they don't mind guests bringing their own laptops and plugging them into the LAN connection. Overall, I think the Astor House is an excellent value for the price, even though you can certainly find newer and fancier hotels in Shanghai.

“well kept secret”

Took advice from previous reviews and booked executive room 2nd floor Everything you could want in large room. Unexpected quite large deposit for fridge content but didn't use anything so received all back in cash on leaving.Nice staff with enough English and hotel close to everything, but a fair way from posh hotels and other tourists. Restaurants dull but amazing breakfasts included in room price.

“A haven from city life”

This is a charming hotel with superb staff and adequate services: not great in the food or business facility departments, but enough for those of us who are relatively self-sufficient. The rooms are gorgeous and the history of this hotel is celebrated throughout. It is a living museum and I loved staying there. I've stayed in so many hotels in Shanghai over the past 20 years and this is the most fun. I cannot fault the staff either. The location is not ideal but once the walking bridge is open again (currently under renovation) to The Bund, it will make it more accessible for those wokring or sight-seeing in that part of town.

“Great place to stay in Shanghai”

The hotel is old but very charming. Our room was very large with a modern bathroom. The staff was very nice and helpful and the location was great. Book a celebrity room. It gave us free breakfast from a large a delicious buffet and free internet. This hotel is a great deal and inexpensive.

“A taste of Old Shanghai”

The Astor House Hotel is one of China's oldest "grand hotels" and has a long and varied history. Many famous people have stayed here over the years e.g. Bertrand Russell, Albert Einstein, Noel Coward. Many original features are retained but modern facilities are also present. Its situation on the Bund makes it an ideal choice for the discerning traveller.

“Great experience”

I booked an executive room, which was a great value for the price. The hotel is conveniently located just north of the Bund. Although there is construction all over Shanghai (in anticipation of the 2010 Expo), including the Bund, it did not bother me at all while in the hotel. The executive room was large and had a double bed, couch, desk, and computer with unlimited internet use (great while jetlagged and not sleeping through the night). My booking included breakfast, which consisted of a buffet of Western and Chinese food, and changed daily. One small problem - my air conditioning did not seem to work. I set it at 22 degrees C and my room remained much hotter throughout my stay. Overall, I thought it was a great place to stay, especially considering the price. The hotel has a great style, and my room was cleaned thoroughly every day. I would definitely return!

“Living in a museum”

My friend in Shanghai said I was "living in a museum", and I tend to agree. I stayed at the Astor House for 6 days directly after an injury that put me on crutches. Fortunately, I booked an executive room on the 2nd floor that ended up being directly adjacent to the 24-hour secretary's desk. It was like having a personal assistant, which was nice, given my condition. The hotel is not handicapped accessible, so I wouldn't recommend it for other travelers on crutches or in wheelchairs. There is an elevator, but there are about 10 mandatory stairs to get to it. The 3rd, 4th, and 5th floors looked dark and drab, glad I stayed on the 2nd. Overall, a very good experience, and I'm happy I found such an awesome hotel for a great price.
