Shanghai Leading World staycation | The Puli Hotel Shanghai

|The Puli Hotel and Spa Shanghai. As the first hotel under the Leading Hotels of the World that I stayed in, although the PuLi Shanghai has been open for many years, it still maintains its surprising texture. As a loyal fan of Marriott, I finally understood why Leading Hotels of the World is so highly regarded after an accidental try. From the moment I stepped into the lobby, I was deeply attracted by the aesthetic language that combines modern design with oriental Zen. The most intoxicating thing is the wonderful combination of blinds and floor-to-ceiling windows in the guest rooms. The sunlight shines through the fine grilles and casts gradient light and shadows on the ground, turning the high-rise landscape of the bustling Jing'an Temple business district into a dynamic ink painting. this The creation of the artistic conception of "hiding in the city" is wonderful, and even the guests maintain just the right tacit understanding: no noisy children, no loud conversations. This is the perfect template for an urban staycation: in the morning, you can enjoy a cooked-to-order breakfast in a restaurant as quiet as a library (much more pleasant than those luxury hotels with noisy buffet counters), in the afternoon, you can take a group of blockbuster photos in the atrium corridor with dancing light and shadow, and in the evening, you can dive into the mirror-like swimming pool with rippling blue waves. After nightfall, the Michelin one-star restaurant on the second floor presents another kind of sophistication with contemporary French cuisine and wine list. When you step into the nearby Kerry Center shopping mall, the feeling of falling from paradise into the mundane world becomes the best footnote to the hotel's atmosphere. Such a complete secluded experience presented with such restrained pricing really makes Marriott hotels of the same price pale in comparison.
