“Pleasant Stay with Excellent Service”
I recently stayed at Sofitel The North Bund Shanghai as a couple and overall had a pleasant experience. The room was very clean and well-maintained, which made our stay comfortable.
The highlight of our visit was definitely the staff. They were friendly and attentive, and I would especially like to commend the concierge, Jerry, who was extremely helpful with assisting us in arranging parcel delivery—his service really stood out and made things much easier for us.
However, there are a couple of areas that could be improved. The room felt quite stuffy during the winter, as the central air conditioning could not be adjusted to our preference. Additionally, the hotel deposit is relatively higher compared to other hotels, which may be something to take note of.
Overall, despite a few minor inconveniences, we still had a good stay and would consider returning in the future.

“Comfortable stay with good service”
One of the doorman has helped me to negotiate with a taxi driver who was trying to overcharge me from the airport, so great service from him.
Rooms are nice and clean, breakfast is very good and the location is fantastic.
Only drawback was the room service staff who could not speak English so it was a bit difficult to order food when I got back late from work on one night.

“Amazing Staffs and services”
Amazing staff here. Their services are extremely professional and helpful. They handled everything with care and responded quickly to my needs. I have got approx 30 parcels delivered to the hotel during my stay, and two gentlemen at the concierge did an outstanding job to secure them. Especially thanks to Lockie Wu, who was incredibly patient and helped me sort out the late-arriving parcels, even at the late night. He and his colleagues also assisted me loading everything into the cab during check-out, so I didn’t have to deal with any hassle.
I truly felt spoiled here and this place is definitely a gem. This certainly won’t be my last stay.
