ANDERSON TATE

After seeing the blooming flowers, I stayed at the Peace Hotel again and was still thrilled

After watching the blooming flowers, I couldn't help but stay at the Peace Hotel again, just to feel the old Shanghai charm that hits you right in the face. The Peace Hotel in Shanghai is located on East Nanjing Road in Huangpu District, at the heart of the city, surrounded by century-old buildings filled with old Shanghai charm. Outside the window is the beautiful view of the Bund. Whether it was a hundred years ago or today, the Peace Hotel has always been a dazzling pearl on the Shanghai Bund, shining its own light. Entering the Peace Hotel's own museum, you unveil its layers of mystery. It turns out that its history is so long; it opened in the late 1920s, was once the premier hotel in the Far East, and also Shanghai's first skyscraper, one of the city's landmark buildings. It has hosted many celebrities and politicians, witnessed many important events in Chinese history, and also the century-long prosperity of the magical city of Shanghai. The overall architectural style of the Peace Hotel is quite retro, complementing the Bund's international building complex. The hotel interior is magnificent and luxurious, with a variety of room types, including the British suite of Ah Bao and Uncle Ye from the drama 'Blooming Flowers', as well as suites named after other countries, and river-view suites, Fairmont rooms. The rooms are all spacious, with exquisite furniture, beautifully designed, high-end facilities, super large bathrooms with separate wet and dry areas, unique bathtubs, and particularly high-end toiletries. The suites named after different countries are also designed according to their respective cultures, with luxurious decorations and a comfortable and leisurely atmosphere. The Peace Hotel's cuisine is also very worth trying. The Dragon Phoenix Hall on the eighth floor not only offers a panoramic view of the Huangpu River, but the various Shanghai cuisines are also top-notch. The Peace Hotel's Western restaurant is also a well-known presence on the Shanghai Bund, and you must try it. Its jazz bar is great too, with an average age of 82, the old Shanghai musicians perform the famous old Shanghai tunes every night at the bar, instantly transporting people back to Shanghai in the 1920s and 1930s, creating an unforgettable atmosphere. The service at the Peace Hotel doesn't need much talking about, it's definitely excellent, attentive and thoughtful. From check-in to departure, they are polite and take great care of children and the elderly, give small gifts, etc. The room cleaning staff are so careful and meticulous, thank you to these staff members for the touching experience they have brought us. The Peace Hotel, this century-old hotel, is like a pearl on the Shanghai Bund, and also a location for many TV dramas and movies. I watched the recently popular 'Blooming Flowers' and couldn't help but stay here again, to feel the misty elegance of old Shanghai in the drama. Having afternoon tea at the bakery on the first floor is also full of atmosphere. In the future, when coming to Shanghai, I might just stick with the Peace Hotel, it's too wonderful!
