[2024 Shanghai Stay] Travel Guide for Hotel Equatorial Shanghai (Updated Oct)
I may have stayed in the most expensive hotel in the country.
If history cannot be told in a way that appeals to young people, then history will lose young people, and young people will lose history. - Shan Jixiang, former director of the Palace Museum
About 300 years ago, in a place called Yangxingzhai in the Forbidden City, Emperor Qianlong ordered the hanging of a plaque with the words "Yang Yun", meaning "nurturing the cloud". Since then, these two short, powerful, and mysterious words have been profound: self-cultivation, advocating nature, and awe of creation, which is also the source of inspiration for the name of Aman's fourth resort in China - Amanyangyun.
Modern minimalist aesthetic design master Kerry Hill's only work in Shanghai [Amanyangyun·Yuan] Courtyard: 1500-1800 square meters Garden: 1000-1200 square meters
Covering 4-5 acres of heritage mansion·villa
Each courtyard is located in the center of the rebuilt old house from the Ming and Qing Dynasties, which is the central area of the residence. The newly built wall is set up on the outside, forming a contrast between the new and the old, achieving a subtle balance.
The new and old houses each have their own advantages. Every small detail can feel the designer's intentions and the clever use of natural light. At the entrance of the suite, the branches and vines are pleasing to the eye, and the blue sky and white clouds are immediately visible, and the whole person's body and mind are completely relaxed.
The Nan Study inherits the traditional system of the old house, and hides the spiritual connotation and function of the private mat in the fragrant Phoebe. Here, reading, meeting guests, cultivating the body and mind, tasting tea... What is rare is the sense of tranquility in the bustling city.

It's not that I can't afford All Seasons, but Guodu offers better value for money
It's not that I can't afford All Seasons, but Guodu offers better value for money.
This Qingming holiday, I came to Shanghai to play and stayed at the Shanghai International Guodu Grand Hotel near Jing'an Temple. The holiday room rate of 500 yuan is very competitive. Compared with hotels like All Seasons, this hotel offers full services including a swimming pool, gym, lounge, restaurant, etc. It's really worth it.
Advantages: 1. Good location; 2. Full-service hotel with a swimming pool; 3. The price is usually just over 500 yuan.

An amazing stay in central Shanghai! ❤️
First time in Shanghai was incredibly comfortable, since we we’re staying with Hotel Equatorial Shanghai. We got a room on the 18th floor, which granted us a gorgeous view of the skyline. We couldn’t keep our eyes off of it. 🌃
The extra’s are amazing. The gym and pool gave us many moments to wind down. The cleanliness was on🔝! We had breakfast included, which meant an array of different food options from classic Western breakfast to Asian options. Still thinking about the noodle bar 🍜
Staff was also really helpful. The concierge helped me with a package I wanted to send to loved ones in China. I had a hard time with the Chinese translations and didn’t have a Chinese phone number. So he did everything to make sure my package arrived. 🥹 Thank you concierge Thomas!
Location was also a plus since we we’re 5 minutes away from Jing’An station. Super easy to travel everywhere everyday. 🚊
Wouldn’t recommend more! We will be back 💓
