Hua Ting Hotel & Towers (Hua Ting Binguan)

Frommer's Review

Opened in 1986 as the first foreign-managed luxury hotel in Shanghai, the former Sheraton Hua Ting reverted to local management in 1996. After many years of wear, the hotel was renovated in 2007, which lends a much-needed fresh sheen to its five-star facilities. Rooms vary in size depending on where they're located in the "S" shaped building. Deluxe rooms, larger and considerably nicer than superior rooms, sport modern furniture, thick carpets, and comfortable beds. Marble bathrooms are simple but clean and come with full amenities. This is the nicest hotel in the Shanghai Stadium area, but service is just average, so stay here only if you can arrange a substantial savings on room rates. And if you have nothing better to do in the evening, you can always pop down to the bar to catch the famous Peace Hotel Jazz Band, temporarily transplanted here while the Peace is being renovated.
