[2025 Shanghai Hotels] Travel Guide for InterContinental Shanghai Ruijin (Updated Jul)

⭐ Even if you don’t stay in Ruijin Intercontinental Hotel, it is worth going to have a look around, cause this is Old Shanghai. The restaurant of this hotels is famous around the locals, but not cause it’s food, it is because of the environment. 🌆 The building of the hotel has a long history and this can be seen very obviously when you enter the territory of the hotel. The main building is quite modern, while all the rest buildings are preserved as they were many years ago. It is worth walk around after lunch or dinner in this restaurant for sure to discover the old well, over 100 years hollow trees, a blend of western and Chinese architecture. 🥢 The restaurant environment also talks about old Shanghai. But don’t have very high expectations for food, it is good, but not amazing to be honest. But even this way lunch here is very enjoyable. The environment means a lot.

#Shanghai Infinity Pool Shanghai is a world-famous tourist resort city, with thousands of tourists coming here every day for sightseeing and vacation. There are many luxury hotels in Shanghai. This time I would like to recommend a luxury infinity pool hotel in Shanghai: Shanghai Ruijin InterContinental Hotel. Swimming pool: 23m*10m, the number is not small...but the swimming pool is not square, the arc-shaped frame makes the actual utilization rate not so high; one lane is divided for children, and the remaining three lanes have 14 people. The depth of the pool ranges from 1.3m to 1.9m, and one side is deeper. Gym: There are not many equipments but they are very complete. Many personal trainers have equipments. I don’t know if they can be used casually; the water is directly filtered and used in paper cups. Locker room: The biggest feeling of the locker room is white, because they are all in B1, I thought it was very dark, but because they are all white tiles, the white lights are very bright, and it doesn’t feel depressing. There are also SPA pools and saunas. The overall core geographical location, beautiful external environment (N people pose for photos on weekends), 3 hours of free parking

At this time, the maple trees in the green space are full of red leaves, which are extremely beautiful. The red maple leaves bathed in the sun become the most striking feature.

It was my first time to Shanghai in early December, and I discovered that there are many beautiful places to take photos of red leaves 🍁 and ginkgo trees in Shanghai. This time I went to Ruijin Hotel to walk around and take photos. The red leaves and ginkgo trees are paired with historical European-style buildings. It is really beautiful. I hope I will have the opportunity to appreciate this beautiful scenery with my family next time. So taking beautiful red leaves is not only in Japan😊 #ShanghaiRedLeaves #ShanghaiMagicCity #Shanghai Duanjin InterContinental Hotel

If you want to find a good place to take pictures of ginkgo leaves in Shanghai, Ruijin Hotel is definitely one of the must-go places. At this time of year, the big ginkgo tree is simply a super photogenic existence. There is an old fountain under the ginkgo tree, and with the golden ginkgo leaves all over the ground, it looks like a scene from a movie. The coolest thing is that Ruijin Hotel is open to the public for free. You can enjoy the beautiful scenery without spending any money, and taking beautiful photos is a real bargain! I arrived at 1:30 p.m. and there was almost no one under the ginkgo tree at that time, so I could take pictures freely from any angle. It felt like I could blend into the beautiful autumn scenery. But when I finished taking pictures and left, there were more people around, and it became a bit difficult to take a nice photo of the ginkgo tree. Therefore, if you are a photographer, it is recommended that you go there early in the morning. There will not be many people there before 12 o'clock, so you can take pictures quickly and well. After 14:00 in the afternoon, the number of people gradually increases, especially on weekends, making it more difficult to take "empty shots". This place is not only beautiful for its ginkgo trees, but the Ruijin Hotel itself is a classic of old Shanghai. You can feel the strong historical atmosphere just walking in the courtyard. The maple leaves next to it are also beautiful. Although not as bright yellow as ginkgo leaves, the red leaves in autumn are also a kind of beauty. So, if you plan to take photos here, you can also take photos of the maple leaves, the effect will be great. The whole tour took about an hour. I walked slowly and took some photos. It felt like time passed very quickly. The transportation is also very convenient. It is only a 10-minute walk from Exit 6 of Shaanxi South Station on Metro Line 10 and Line 12. If you come by car, you can park directly in the underground parking lot of Ruijin Hotel or the Cultural Square next to it. Parking is also very convenient. In general, the ginkgo scenery at Ruijin Hotel is one of the most beautiful I have ever photographed, and it is open to the public for free. It would be a pity not to go. If you also like taking autumn photos, or simply want to find a quiet place to take a walk, this is a good choice. There are actually many such hidden attractions in Shanghai in autumn, and Ruijin Hotel is definitely one of the "Internet celebrities" among them!

Every year, my favorite place to take photos of ginkgo trees in the city is InterContinental Ruijin. The hotel has beautiful scenery, where you can enjoy both ginkgo and maple trees. The best part is that the place is large and spacious, so you won't feel crowded when taking photos. It's also conveniently located, so I always think of visiting when I'm near South Shaanxi Road in winter. Recently, the weather in Shanghai hasn't been sunny, but luckily it hasn't rained. The ginkgo tree king is still as majestic as ever, tall and golden, perfect for winter photos. The red maple trees on the lawn nearby have also turned red. After taking photos, you can head to Shanghai Culture Square across the street to continue taking photos of ginkgo trees. It's all along the way.

Autumn in Downtown Shanghai | Century-old Ginkgo and European Style In Shanghai's most beautiful season, you don't need to travel far to see a stunning autumn scene in the city center - the century-old ginkgo tree at the Ruijin Hotel. Ginkgo trees are common in the south, but when they are set against European-style buildings, they have a unique charm. Ruijin Hotel, a garden villa hotel built in 1917, has a century-old English castle style. Every autumn, the old ginkgo tree in the fountain garden becomes the most dazzling gem in the hotel and the surrounding area. This 89-year-old ginkgo tree is now in its prime. Its thick trunk is like a kind old man, opening his warm arms to protect the four directions; its drooping branches and leaves are like golden curtains, swaying gracefully in the wind, shining in the sunlight, like a magical tree full of gold coins in a fairy tale, making people yearn for it. If you want to avoid the weekend crowds, why not take advantage of today's pleasant weather and come to see this autumn scene. 📌Tips: 1. There are ginkgo trees at both the east and west gates of Ruijin Hotel. If you have time, you can take a stroll and enjoy the scenery. 2. The ginkgo and red maple trees are now in their best viewing period, and the autumn scenery in the garden is like a painting, with a view at every step. 3. The cultural park opposite the Maoming Road gate of the hotel is also a good place to see ginkgo trees, with a forest of ginkgo trees and a sea of gold. 4. This is also the filming location of the movie "This Is Not What I Expected" starring Takeshi Kaneshiro and Zhou Dongyu, and witnessed the engagement of Chiang Kai-shek and Soong Mei-ling, where history and art blend. 📍Location: 207 Maoming South Road, Ruijin Hotel West Gate 🚇Transportation: Metro Line 1/10/12, South Shaanxi Road Station

| InterContinental Shanghai Ruijin Hotel. A week of work is always exhausting, 😫 and my body feels like it's filled with lead. I collapse on the sofa when I get home, my mind blank. A huge sense of despair and helplessness fills the room. Suddenly, an idea breaks the depressing silence, "I need to find a nice hotel to relax." ✌️ 🎉 So, I booked the InterContinental Shanghai Ruijin Hotel, and I instantly felt better. 😄 This hotel 🏨 is a garden in the city, with giant camphor trees standing on the lush green lawn, and a European-style fountain ⛲️ in the middle. The white cherubs 👼 on the fountain contrast with the greenery, making it even more peaceful. I sit on a lounge chair outside and have a drink. This is a white wine I've been enjoying recently: Oyster Bay Sauvignon Blanc. The fresh taste lingers on my lips, and the light fruit aroma spreads in my mouth, making me feel like I'm in New Zealand's pure air and warm sunshine. My heart calms down, and I enjoy this sudden beauty. Life is like a white cloth stained with tar. Although it is washed by time, it always retains old marks. Time passes, but it is still beautiful. 💗 In the evening, I invited some girlfriends over. The seafood is our favorite thing as girls on a diet. We drank Sauvignon Blanc and chatted before the food arrived. Looking at their faces, I remembered our school days, attending classes and gossiping together. It really is "Sauvignon Blanc." Although we can't be together often now, we still meet once a week. We listen to each other complain about work and gossip about the company. Friendships between girls start with gossip, simple and happy. 💗 Not only did we have a great chat, but we also enjoyed the seafood. This white wine definitely played a part. 💯 The rich fruit aroma paired with the seafood completely removes the fishy taste, leaving only the freshness of the seafood and the rich aroma of the wine. It's a perfect match. 💯 Sometimes, strong friendships seem light, just like this wine. It is rich at first, but as time passes, it becomes more balanced, just right. 😋 This summer, why not give your busy self a break, and go out with your best friends 👭 to enjoy this unique "Oyster Bay Sauvignon Blanc." ✨ The sense of ritual in a beautiful life is having you and "you." 😉

The rustling of fallen plane tree leaves and the golden ginkgo road in the light and shadow, here are two routes suitable for autumn photography~ Plane tree leaf route: Tai'an Road - Xingguo Road - Hunan Road - Gaoyou Road - Fuxing West Road - Yongfu Road - Hunan Road 1️⃣ Hunan Road: The most beautiful road in the leaf-falling season, I go there every year when the plane trees turn yellow. It intersects with Yongfu Road, Wukang Road, Gaoyou Road, and Xingguo Road. 2️⃣ Xingguo Road: Adjacent to Wukang Road, connecting Tai'an Road and Hunan Road, the light and shadow are beautiful, and there are few people, making it easy to take photos~ 3️⃣ Fuxing West Road: There are many excellent historical buildings along the road, and Hengfu Style Museum and Ke Ling's Former Residence are worth visiting! 4️⃣ Yongfu Road: This short road connects Hunan Road and Wuyuan Road, and is often covered with fallen leaves, making it perfect for photos during the leaf-falling season~ 🍂 Ginkgo route: Bridge 8 Phase 3 on Jumen Road (No. 550 Jumen Road) - Intersection of Wulibao Road and Jumen Road - Shanghai Concert Hall (Jinling Middle Road and Longmen Road) - FOUND158 (No. 158 Julu Road) - Ruijin Hotel Every ginkgo season, the entire Jumen Road is covered with golden ginkgo leaves. You can ride to the Shanghai Concert Hall and FOUND158, and the century-old ginkgo tree at Ruijin Hotel is also a great place to take photos during the ginkgo season in Shanghai~

I usually choose some old and historic hotels in Shanghai. I chose InterContinental Shanghai Ruijin in Huangpu District, which was a red brick building in the French Concession during the Republic of China period. It is said that it was the hotel where Chiang Kai-shek and Soong Mei-ling got engaged. I didn't check whether it was true or not, but I believed it because the road was in line with Soong Mei-ling's aesthetics. The plane trees she loved were planted along the road, adding a lot of romance to the marriage. The hotel was also the prototype of the Xing'anli Garden Hotel in "Chenghuanji". I stayed in Building 3. The room was not high and was decorated in the old Shanghai style. It was not as bright as the new five-star hotels. This was inevitable because it was old. It was clean and comfortable, which was a must. The hotel staff were polite and reserved. The main building was the check-in hall. There was a lady playing the piano in the hall. The magnificent hall was next to a lobby bar and a restaurant. They were all decorated in the old Shanghai style and were very elegant. The VIP building of the hotel had a gym and a swimming pool. The swimming pool was very clean and there were not many people. The gym was also well-equipped. People who like fitness must go and experience it. The hotel's breakfast was mostly Western style. There were various kinds of bread and cheese. The ingredients were very good. In the evening, you can walk out of the hotel and walk along Fumin Road, Changle Road, and Huaihai Road. There was a little wind in the summer night. Everyone would come out for a walk. The small shops were also well decorated. There were exquisite ice cream shops opened by Shanghai uncles and jewelry shops opened by young ladies!

I've heard of the Ruijin InterContinental for a long time. There are many InterContinental hotels in Shanghai, most of which have mixed reviews. This is the only one with such a high rating. To experience its charm, I came here immediately after visiting the Peace Hotel. As a historic building, the Ruijin Hotel is less famous than the Peace Hotel, but this also allows it to stay away from the hustle and bustle of the crowd and realize my dream of vacationing in the city. Brief review of each item Location: The hotel is on Ruijin Second Road, which should be a prime location in Huangpu District. It is adjacent to the Huaihai Road business district. The famous business districts nearby are Tianzifang and Xintiandi. Ruijin Hospital is also nearby and can be reached on foot. The location is excellent. Check-in and check-out: There were quite a few people in line at the front desk that day, and there were still many people waiting at the front desk when I passed by the main building late at night. The occupancy rate was quite high. Fortunately, I didn't have to wait for a room that day. I checked in directly with the room card when it was my turn. The check-in process was very fast. You can check out by returning the room card. Membership benefits: As a Diamond Ambassador member, I booked a basic room and was upgraded to a Deluxe Room in the VIP Building, which is an executive room type. There are welcome drink coupons and welcome fruit. It is worth mentioning that the welcome drink coupon can be used to exchange for coffee in the main building. Facilities and services: I stayed in the VIP Building this time. Even the first floor is very quiet. The room has no smell. The facilities are not particularly old. The hardware is fine. The essence of the hotel is in the public area. The courtyard outside the window is pleasant. Each building has its own characteristics. If you stay in the room for a long time, you can go out for a walk. This is my ideal city vacation life. I just took a walk too much and didn't have the mood to go to the gym and swimming pool to see and take pictures. I only took some outdoor photos. I didn't encounter any problems with the service. Dining: The breakfast is quite good. There are many special snacks and Eggs Benedict. The standard is quite high. I didn't go to the lounge, so I can't comment on it. Cleanliness and hygiene: No problem. Additional consumption: None this time. Cost performance: There should be no competitors in the price range of more than a thousand. The appearance alone crushes a group of high-priced business hotels. If you want to stay nearby and have enough budget, I suggest you come and experience it. The cost performance is extremely high.

Worth a separate mention Ruijin Intercontinental Hotel has a great location, you can walk to Sinan Mansion, and there's a theater opposite where you can watch plays. Wukang Road is also very convenient. I chose it for the convenience of work. There is a garden accessible only to hotel guests, where you can see the place where Chiang Kai-shek and Soong Mei-ling got engaged. The staff said that the Celebrity Hall is where Chen Yi reported the liberation of Shanghai to Chairman Mao over the phone. It is now a filming location for Chenghuan Ji and Fengyue, with a movie library and many vinyl records. The executive lounge exceeded expectations, filled with an old money vibe, truly a place where dignitaries from various countries stay. The presidential suite next door feels mysterious and grand. The garden has a British feel, likely designed a hundred years ago with hopes of openness and inclusivity. The breakfast is also good, with a sense of quality. There is an internet-famous garden, which is a pitfall, with a cheap plastic feel that shouldn't be here... Overall, it's good, and I would choose it again.

The hotels in the center of Shanghai are as beautiful as European manors. Taking the kids to Shanghai for fun, I thought I'd just randomly pick a hotel on the map that was a bit closer to his dad's company. This time choosing a hotel was really a blind choice, but it was as lucky as getting a limited edition blind box! It's one of the few hotels I've stayed in that I highly recommend, even during the May Day period there weren't many people, and there's a big lawn for walking the kids (this lawn is used for outdoor weddings), and you can step on it at will! Hotel: InterContinental Shanghai Ruijin, the lobby for check-in is in a building in the yard, and if you take a taxi you can enter the yard and get off directly at the hotel entrance, but if you stop at the entrance of the yard you still have to walk a bit. Dining: There is a buffet as well as independent restaurants, the restaurant is also super popular online with a courtyard style, called Xin Yuan Lou, right next to the building where you check in, but we missed lunch because the kid overslept for his nap that day. Later we went to the buffet in the lobby (picture 11), there are a lot of types of food, and the taste is also very nice, it's quite suitable for kids, and many can eat. Room: The room decoration is very rustic, the bed is two meters wide, and it's very spacious for a family of three. It's just that the equipment is a bit old, the TV can't cast screen, you can only watch TV station programs. The one we stayed in is the VIP building's deluxe room, priced at 2000+ Service: The response speed is relatively fast, there are several buildings inside that are not tall, there is a small ferry car in the park, you can book in advance if you need to move luggage. Express delivery is very convenient, because the hotel is all small two or three-story buildings, it's very convenient to go directly to the entrance to pick up the express.

Ruijin InterContinental It is said that it was formerly the Ruijin Guest House before InterContinental took over. Located on Ruijin Second Road, it's convenient to go anywhere, offering a tranquil environment amidst the hustle and bustle. The hotel itself has a large lawn and flowers, making it an excellent place for a city walk. Not much is said about its history here; let's just talk about the hotel. The hotel buildings available for booking on the platform at the moment are buildings 1, 2, and 3. The main building is the tall one where check-in is conducted. The VIP building is the shorter one, which also has the executive lounge. Avoid building 3 (it is said to be relatively secluded). If you book the VIP building, there will be a shuttle to take you there; the VIP building has its own restaurant. You can dine there in the morning and evening, although the food is relatively simple; it has its own executive lounge with an old Shanghai flavor, a nice spot for a little rest. The environment inside, with its large lawn and garden (although there are also fake flowers, but that's not important), should be very good in the precious land of Shanghai. The VIP building has two floors; the first floor has the executive lounge and guest rooms with small balconies. The balconies of the second-floor rooms are a bit smaller, but you can open the door to bask in the sun and enjoy the view (fountain, garden) and listen to the birds singing. There is also a fake flower fountain inside, which is a popular photo spot on social media; it recently became famous because actress Guli Nazha had a photoshoot there. If you don't mind the newness of the hotel and are interested in its historical and cultural background, and if you like the old Shanghai style, it is worth trying to stay at Ruijin InterContinental. It comes highly recommended.

Besides the Gongqing Forest Park, there is also a free "Monet Garden" right inside the Ruijin Intercontinental Hotel. Although it's all man-made scenery, it doesn't affect the photogenic quality at all. Shanghai's romance truly is everywhere! I went there with my girlfriends in the afternoon, and it wasn't very crowded. We encountered some advertising shoots, and also some girls dressed in Lolita style, which really matched the scenery! The recently popular TV series "Cheng Huan Ji" also shot scenes here! 📍Detailed address: No. 118 Ruijin Second Road 🚉Transportation strategy: Walk 900 meters from Exit 4 of South Shaanxi Road Tickets: Free ⏳Playing time: 2-4 hours 📝Note tips: You can bring your own reflector, as the light inside the flower lanes can be quite dim. Girls can wear pretty little dresses (white is best), cocktail dresses, small wedding dresses... all are very photogenic Shanghai Ruijin Intercontinental Hotel Garden

The Ruijin InterContinental Hotel in Shanghai, located in the city center, is a historic and cultural classical building in Shanghai. The hotel boasts British-style classical garden villas and spacious garden lawns in the heart of the city, and it comes highly recommended. Adjacent to the Huaihai Road shopping district and opposite the Shanghai Ruijin Hospital, it offers a tranquil retreat amidst the hustle and bustle. Each building and landscape within the hotel holds unforgettable historical memories, making it a perfect blend of traditional and modern elements, an exemplary work of art. 📕 Its predecessor was the Ruijin Guest House, consisting of several old western-style buildings, including the Celebrity Mansion, Presidential Building, VIP Building, and Xinyuan Building... As part of the InterContinental Hotels Group, InterContinental members can also accumulate stay days. I arrived at the hotel very late on Saturday afternoon. Due to some large events that day, the front desk staff told me that my reserved room type was unavailable and arranged an upgrade for me. I was taken to the exclusive king room in Building 3, the VIP Building. Upon entering the room, I found the design and decor to be noble and elegant, making for a truly enjoyable stay. Since the hotel is styled as a classical garden villa, each building is a standalone structure. The main building, where the front desk is located, is nestled in the back next to the Xinyuan Building (Chinese restaurant). After checking in, staff at the entrance will help with luggage and drive you to your accommodation floor. It took me over ten minutes to walk to Building 3, the VIP Building. Near the entrance of the VIP Building, staff will assist with registration, which is very convenient. My room was on the second floor, and opening the balcony door revealed a garden filled with blooming white flowers, a truly beautiful sight. In the evening, you can tour the hotel's lobby and corridors, where many old photographs are on display. Remember to check out the main building where you check in; it contains a cinematic record of past movies filmed on location 🎬. Breakfast is also served in the Langlu Restaurant on the first floor of the main building. During the day, I suggest getting up a bit earlier to take a walk on the garden lawn or explore the different buildings. Both day and night offer distinct experiences and views.
