“Waldorf Qiantan's quiet luxury”
Waldorf Astoria Shanghai Qiantan is a very new, gorgeous-feeling hotel — quality hardware, carefully-designed detailed rooms, beautiful day-and-night views, a comfortable pool, generous breakfast hours with prompt service and a high-standard buffet, a thoughtful room tour at check-in, fast well-judged responses, dedicated concierges (Lydia and Ever) who follow through attentively, and a farewell sea-salt gift set from Eric that guests remember. Ideal for staycations and short Shanghai trips; the bar and restaurant await next visit.
