Impressions
I recently had the pleasure of visiting The Westin Bund Center, Shanghai, and it was an adventure lover's dream come true. From the moment I arrived, I was captivated by the hotel's lavish and brand-new setting. Situated directly in The Bund district and just a stone's throw away from Shanghai Association, the location couldn't have been better for exploring the vibrant city.
As I stepped into the hotel, I was greeted by a serene and peaceful atmosphere. The Westin Bund Center is surrounded by a beautiful garden and park, offering a welcome escape from the bustling city. The rooms were spacious and well-appointed, with some even featuring a separate bedroom and a luxurious bed. The attention to detail in the rooms was evident, with nice accents and separate bathrooms creating a truly comfortable and inviting space.
One of the highlights of my stay was the breakfast. The hotel offered a wide range of options to please all tastes, ensuring that everyone could start their day off right. For lunch and dinner, I dined at the in-house restaurant, which served delectable Chinese cuisine. The main bar was also a favorite of mine, as it offered complimentary drinks that added an extra touch of luxury to my stay.
The service at The Westin Bund Center was exceptional, with a fast check-in process and attentive staff who went above and beyond to ensure my comfort. The rates were also quite reasonable, making it an attractive option for adventure travelers on a budget. However, it's worth noting that some beds may be uncomfortable and could use an upgrade, and a few guests mentioned that the Wi-Fi was a bit slow. Despite these minor drawbacks, I would highly recommend The Westin Bund Center, Shanghai to those seeking a luxurious and adventure-filled hotel experience in the heart of this captivating city.
