French romance in Shikumen, live in the dream of old Shanghai!

Capella Shanghai Jianyeli Hotel - the "heart" of old Shanghai! As soon as I entered the door, I was fascinated by the retro atmosphere of Shikumen, as if I had traveled back to the 1930s. Even the air was filled with the scent of French chanson. The hotel's design is a perfect example of "combining Chinese and Western styles". The red brick walls, black iron doors, and elegant French interior decorations tell you in every detail: "This is Shanghai, but it's not just Shanghai." In a villa with a private garden, a small green world is visible when you open the window. You feel like a socialite in old Shanghai. All you need is a cup of hand-brewed coffee and a copy of "Dream of Red Mansions". The hotel’s breakfast is even more amazing, with French croissants paired with local soup dumplings. This mix and match style is surprisingly harmonious and I was so excited that I kept shouting “I want another serving”! What surprised me most was that the location of the hotel was so convenient. You can walk to the Hengfu style area, and there is an Internet-famous coffee shop just around the corner. You can’t stop taking photos and checking in. I returned to the hotel in the evening, took a bath, listened to old songs from the gramophone, and felt completely relaxed.
