Renaissance Shanghai Yu Garden Hotel on the Bund by Nanjing Road

Renaissance Shanghai Yu Garden Hotel on the Bund by Nanjing Road

10/10 Excellent
"The room was clean and had a nice bathtub and nice coffee machine. I didn’t use breakfast or transportation services as they were quite overpriced. But the metro station was only a 5 minute walk from the hotel so it was easy to move around. And the river walk was about 15-20 minute walk. Yu Garden was a walkable distance as well. "

4 tips for savvy savings when booking a hotel in Shanghai

  1. Book for the cheapest times: The most affordable months to visit Shanghai are January, February, and December, when hotel prices tend to be lower. For those looking to explore the city’s key historical and cultural landmarks, a stay of at least 3 to 4 days is recommended. This timeframe allows for visits to museums, temples, and shopping districts, as well as sightseeing in natural parks and dining at local establishments. Travellers on a budget will find great value for money during these months, as prices may drop, making it an excellent time to experience the rich history and vibrant culture of this bustling metropolis.
  2. Look for last-minute deals on Hotels.com: To discover last-minute deals to Shanghai, you may start by exploring the DealsOpens in a new window or Last-Minute Deals sections on Hotels.com, where you're more likely to see discounted hotel rates as your travel date approaches. Consider enabling email alerts or push notifications from Hotels.com to stay informed about flash sales and exclusive last-minute promotions. Additionally, the Smart Shopping tool available via the app allows you to compare hotel prices and amenities, ensuring you can quickly seize opportunities as they arise, whether it's a price drop or newly available rooms for your spontaneous getaway.
  3. Be flexible with dates: Prices may fluctuate due to various factors such as the hotel's location, star rating, and seasonality, so being flexible with your travel dates could help you secure a more favourable rate for your stay in a Shanghai hotel. If you're seeking a distinctive experience, boutique hotels often provide a more personalised touch and may offer better value. When you book through Hotels.com, we will inform you whether the price for your chosen dates is above or below the average. If the price tends to be on the higher side, we will suggest alternative dates that could potentially offer more affordable options, increasing the likelihood that you will find a better deal.
  4. Consider your location: Hotels situated near the city centre usually tend to be more expensive, but thanks to Shanghai's exceptional public transport links, you may discover a more affordable independent hotel further afield that remains well connected. For those keen to explore alternative, less congested neighbourhoods or even lesser-known nearby towns, there is often excellent value for money to be found. Opting for these alternative destinations could provide a more authentic and budget-friendly experience.
