Shanghai Bund W Hotel Swimming Experience

Overall, swimming at the Bund W Hotel is more suitable for taking photos than for serious exercise. 🏊♀️ Pool Facilities and Environment ✨ Outdoor Pool: The outdoor pool has a depth of 1.1 meters and offers stunning views! You can swim while enjoying the beautiful scenery of the Bund. Unfortunately, it closes at 7 PM, so you can't enjoy it for long. ✨ Indoor Pool: I visited on a weekday evening, and the indoor pool was overcrowded, making it hard to swim comfortably. It might be due to the summer holidays, as many parents brought their kids along, creating a noisy atmosphere. It's difficult to swim peacefully under such conditions. 💁♀️ Changing Room Experience The women's changing room is relatively small and has a winding layout, which is not very convenient. The toiletries provided have a sweet melon fragrance, which can become overwhelming after a while. The most disappointing part was the slippers provided—they were flip-flops, which were uncomfortable to wear. I overheard other women complaining about the flip-flops too, so it seems I'm not the only one who felt this way. 🌟 Summary In summary, while the Bund W Hotel's pool offers great views, it falls short in terms of swimming for exercise and the changing room experience. I probably won't visit again and would prefer a place more suitable for serious swimming. If any ladies are looking to take photos, I recommend visiting the outdoor pool during less crowded times, as the scenery is indeed photogenic. However, if you're aiming for a proper swimming workout, it's better to look elsewhere.
