Shanghai MGM-Modern style hotel
The Shanghai West Bund MGM Hotel opened in March this year. The interior design was handled by HBA, creating a modern and stylish atmosphere with bright colors. Paintings and artworks are displayed everywhere, comparable to an art gallery, and the scenery is great for taking photos. You can overlook the Huangpu River in the room, and on clear days, you can even see the Bund. The executive lounge was opened last week after meticulous preparation, and the quality is excellent. The afternoon tea and happy hour have a variety of options and great taste, definitely worth the price. It is highly recommended to stay in a room or package with executive treatment. The atmosphere of staying in the hotel is like visiting an art gallery, great for taking photos, and the hotel staff also encourages guests to take photos and help kind to recommend which photo spots not to miss.

A fabulous hotel stay in Shanghai! The budget hotels are so comfortable to live in
The biggest surprise was the room. We chose the most basic double room, and upon entering, we found it to be incredibly spacious, around sixty to seventy square meters, and it even had a direct view of the riverfront.
As soon as I entered the hotel, I was captivated by its style, which was both brand new and tasteful, luxurious yet understated. It felt like the designer had great taste, decorating with lots of art paintings and porcelain, making it seem like I had stumbled into an art gallery or museum.
The hotel offers a panoramic and stunning view of the river, which can be enjoyed from the room, the lobby, and the rooftop bar, especially breathtaking during sunset.
The breakfast wasn't the most top-notch in flavor, but it's already among the best in a five-star hotel.
What I was most concerned about before going was the service, as new hotels often have issues with staff training. But in reality, there was no problem at all; every staff member was very enthusiastic, creating an even better atmosphere than the average five-star hotel.
The bar was also great! The drinks were good, the resident singer had a great voice, there was a lion ice sculpture, and the service was enthusiastic, including a pretty handsome guy.
In short, I really want to go and stay there again!

「Review」MGM Grand Westside made a great profit
1️⃣ Before check-in: Call one day and on the day of check-in to inquire about the check-in time and confirm the room and details, with a gentle attitude, thumbs up.
2️⃣ CI: There was a message in advance, checked in at 11 am as the room was pre-selected, the process was very fast, and got upgraded to a deluxe river view room.
3️⃣ The room is big for a city location, the facilities are very new, the decoration style is quite warm, with birthday decorations, complimentary 🍰 and a birthday card. The mini bar is not free. Room service is available 24 hours 🉑 and being well-fed is a plus.
4️⃣ For dinner, went to the Chinese restaurant on the 58th floor, the window seats offer views of the Pudong trio, Westside financial city, and Lupu Bridge, the service was very good, and the dishes ordered were very appetizing, recommend the jasmine smoked fish (made with flounder).
🖐🏻 Breakfast is at the Italian restaurant on the 57th floor, also with a view of the river. Not crowded on weekdays. There is seating guidance, but they didn't ask whether tea or coffee was needed when seated, which is a slight minus. It's all self-service, recommend the salmon 🥯, the Chinese small wontons and fresh congee are good, there's a variety of fruits, and for juices, recommend 🍋➕🍎 juice and dragon fruit➕raspberry.
6️⃣ The swimming pool closes at 10 pm, and the staff will explain how to use the lockers before entering. The changing room is very clean, but the shower takes a while to produce hot water. Having a hot spring pool is a plus.
7️⃣ Room service is very responsive, needed supplies are usually delivered within 10 minutes of calling. 🅿️ Free parking. 🈶 Late check-out.

Don't judge a hotel by its online fame, but by the recommendations of uncles and aunts!
The value for money and quality of dining at a hotel shouldn't be assessed by internet celebrities, but by uncles and aunts! The MGM on the West Bank is a hotel recommended by uncles and aunts!
The Western restaurant has a great view, and the key is that it offers great value for money and is super delicious! It crushes the existence of many luxury brands, no wonder uncles gather here. Sales will recommend membership, which is very cost-effective.
Recommendation level: Average
Dining: Highly recommended, with wood-fired pizza
Service: Very good
Location: Nice, with many art exhibitions nearby, and a shopping mall downstairs
Complaint: Positioned as luxurious, but feels more like deluxe
Designed in collaboration with Hirsch Bedner Associates (HBA), located in the Xuhui Riverside area on the West Bank, it is a popular and vibrant area in Shanghai. It boasts a good ecological environment and waterfront open spaces, making it a great weekend destination. In addition, more than 20 public cultural facilities, including the West Bank Art Museum and the Tank Shanghai Art Center, add a unique cultural and artistic atmosphere to the West Bank.
The hotel has 219 rooms, spread across floors 43 to 56 of the hotel. In the skyscraper, one can either look out over the West Bank riverside or gaze at the cityscape, with excellent views. Starting from 60 square meters, the room size is among the top in the city, and the wide glass window design allows for a panoramic view of the magic city's beauty.

The Tony Award-favored musical 'The Great Comet' is captivating for many reasons
The musical 'The Great Comet' is based on the story from the second part of Volume Two of the classic Russian novel 'War and Peace', set against the backdrop of Napoleon's invasion of Russia in 1812. At the beginning of the story, the young and beautiful aristocratic girl Natasha is engaged to Prince Andrei, but soon after, Andrei is conscripted into the army, leaving Natasha alone. Prince Andrei's father, Duke Bolkonsky, is not satisfied with Natasha's family background, and at the same time, Andrei's sister Mary coldly opposes the marriage.
The dual setbacks of marriage and family drive Natasha to desperately seek emotional support, and the young girl who frequents the glittering society of Moscow becomes increasingly enchanted by its splendor. Meanwhile, Pierre, an illegitimate son from a Russian noble family, gets entangled in the turmoil caused by Natasha. At this point, he is trapped in a hopeless marriage and a confused future, and their fates unexpectedly intersect...
Setting aside the black-and-white portrayal of characters, the personalities in the play are distinct, complex, and multifaceted, with a certain degree of moral ambiguity. Natasha is a young and passionate woman who grows through the entanglements of love and fate; Pierre is a disillusioned middle-aged man who repeatedly shrinks back from his long-buried ideals but is unwilling to give up completely. The musical deeply explores complex human emotions such as love, passion, jealousy, betrayal, and revenge, and each character faces complex psychological challenges. This gives the entire musical a tension and narrative appeal behind its exuberant music.
This new immersive Broadway production of 'The Great Comet' is set to land at the Shanghai West Bund Theater in December 2023, and it's definitely not to be missed!!
The Hungry Explorer
Looking forward to it! The musical 'The Great Comet' will land in Shanghai at the end of the year!
📆Global premiere date: December 2023
📍Performance venue: Shanghai West Bund Grand Theatre
🙌🙌Another blockbuster musical is coming!
🥳🥳A hot topic on Broadway for nearly 5 years, 'The Great Comet' has received 12 Tony Award nominations and is a culmination of innovative Broadway musicals, pioneering the trend of immersive musical performances—a Broadway immersive new production of 'The Great Comet' is set to land in Shanghai in December 2023!
🥰🥰'Natasha, Pierre & The Great Comet of 1812' is adapted from Leo Tolstoy's 1869 novel 'War and Peace', blending Russian folk tunes and classical music with indie rock, electronic music, and rhythms influenced by the organ. It has been hailed as the most innovative musical on Broadway following 'Hamilton'.
📕Story synopsis:
In Moscow of 1812, as Napoleon's army approaches, the tranquil and affluent lives of the nobility are overturned. The bride-to-be Natasha awaits her fiancé Andrei's return from the war, while the passionate courtship of the young officer Anatole stirs her heart. The despondent noble youth Pierre, with grand ideals but forever curled up in the complexity of life, meets the scandal-entangled Natasha. Across the Moscow sky of 1812, a great comet passes... The fate of everyone will quietly turn at this midwinter ball.
🤩🤩The play's 2023 new production, with the original Broadway creative team colliding with top domestic production teams, will debut at the new Shanghai West Bund Dome Art Center at the end of the year. It's really hard not to look forward to it!

The hotel feels like an art gallery
Shanghai West Bank is an area of art collection, and MGM, as the only international star hotel in the surrounding area, not only has MGM's unique leisure and entertainment, but also adds a lot of art presentation.
In the hotel, art pieces can be seen everywhere, and the banquet hall is more like the layout of a gallery, allowing you to indulge in your own artistic understanding.
The hotel has a lot of green elements, which is the designer's appreciation of the 'Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains' painting. After discovering that the green water and green mountains in the painting are still beautiful after a thousand years, it is also used in the hotel design, implying that the hotel can also withstand the test of time, becoming more and more beautiful, from the outside to the inside.
In addition to the gym, swimming pool, and the rotating staircase in the film, the hotel also introduces MGM's SPA, Zen Chanz. High in the sky, looking at the river view through the floor-to-ceiling windows, the white ceramic tiles, the leaf-shaped chandeliers, plus the soothing music and the technician's professional and gentle techniques, it is a place where you can let go of your body and mind in a busy life.

MGM West Bund, Shanghai | A luxurious experience of art and culture fusion
A luxurious experience of art and culture fusion. Not long ago, my best friend and I chose a weekend for a luxurious experience of art collision. In the past, we would go on vacation around Shanghai or to Chongming Island, but recently we have become increasingly lazy, so we decided to see an exhibition locally and booked a hotel in the city to start our weekend roaming time.
This time we booked the MGM West Bund Hotel, which was built by HBA and opened in March this year on the Binjiang River. I believe many hotel enthusiasts are not unfamiliar with it. The hotel is located in the Xuhui Binjiang area, connecting the West Bund Art Museum and the Oil Tube Art Center, extending the atmosphere of culture and art to the overall tone of the hotel, suitable for literary and art enthusiasts to check in.
As the first city hotel under the Diaoyutai MGM Hotel Group in mainland China, the iconic golden lion at the entrance of the West Bund MGM Hotel fully integrates the Oriental heritage with contemporary elements on this land of art, while incorporating the high-end, elegant design style into the tone of traditional historical culture, making art more life-like and classic.
Check-in is at the 57th-floor sky lobby, where the 'porcelain' display installation turns the entire public area into a sky museum, very representative, highlighting the independent charm of Chinese culture and art. The hotel's wrap-around floor-to-ceiling windows make the view even more open, and you can enjoy the bustling cityscape of Magic City without leaving the house.
The hotel has a total of 161 luxury rooms and 58 suites, with spacious and comfortable overall space in the rooms, at least 60 square meters. We stayed for 2 nights, the first night was a luxury double bed room, priced at 1500+. The entire room is designed with a log color as the main tone, blending Eastern aesthetics with high technology, and the soft furnishings and art decorations in the room are more dynamic, visually making the atmosphere of contemporary urban life more three-dimensional.
The second night we moved to the river view suite, with a 270-degree river view that is absolutely unique, priced at 3000+. The room can be used as a connecting room, sharing a living room, very practical. The overall color scheme incorporates Klein blue, making the entire design level look more stable and dynamic. The hotel's coffee cups are printed with the silhouette of the West Bund landmark building, the room amenities are from the Italian brand Lorenzo Villoresi, and the hair dryer is Dyson.
The hotel restaurant is located on the 57th floor, offering a rich dining experience including Italian, Chinese, afternoon tea, etc. Dining here offers a panoramic view of the West Bund riverside. The pizza oven at the entrance of the restaurant is full of design sense, and cheese lovers must not miss the half-moon pizza, which has three kinds of cheese, strong cheese flavor, and delicate taste.
The lunch here mainly offers Cantonese dim sum, while the evening focuses on Cantonese and Shanghai local dishes. The swan pastry made with Iberian ham, black truffle soup dumplings, and cigar rolls filled with fresh shrimp are highly recommended and won't disappoint.
The Tria Zen Water Therapy on the 58th floor offers SPA services, but we didn't have time to experience it due to time constraints.
The hotel's infinity pool is also very photogenic, but we didn't bring swimsuits so we just went for a simple visit.
Going to the sky bar on the 59th floor of MGM is a must! It has an unbeatable city night view, there is also an outdoor terrace, suitable for check-in photos, there is a resident band at night, and what attracts me the most is its crystal lamp, which is absolutely dazzling.

The first luxury hotel on the West Bank, the new landmark of the West Bank, MGM
The first luxury hotel on the West Bank, and the most popular one among the newly opened luxury hotels in Magic City, hotel enthusiasts naturally have to check in. I booked a luxury river view suite, including breakfast for two and executive courtesy. The feature of this room type is that it has wrap-around floor-to-ceiling windows, which can take in the beautiful riverside scenery outside the window.
Geographical location: 300 meters away from Longyao Road subway station on Line 11, within walking distance to Tank Art Center, West Bank Art Center and other attractions, the geographical location is very superior. Staying here can immerse yourself in a day of art tour on the West Bank.
Room: The luxury river view suite is 82 square meters, with intelligent control system, wide view, both the bedroom and living room area are quite large, and the wrap-around floor-to-ceiling window design takes in the beautiful riverside scenery. The dual-color sofa of Modigliani and elegant gray in the living room adds luxury to the space, highlights the social atmosphere, and is accompanied by colorful exquisite art porcelain sculptures, showing style and elegance. The bathing space is also very large, equipped with double washbasins and independent bathtubs, even the bathrobe texture is full of high-end feeling. The modern and gorgeous solid wood four-poster bed allows you to sleep well. The pumpkin lamp decoration is full of design sense, slippers, room cards, pens, tea sets are all Hermes orange color matching, very delicate and high-end, plus Dyson hair dryer, intelligent toilet, ladies dressing table, illy coffee machine, BOSE sound, and rich Mini bar configuration, it is definitely the top configuration in the newly opened hotels in Magic City.
Catering: MGM has a variety of different style restaurants such as Bocui Lang Cafe, Shuian Italian Western Restaurant, SKY59 Rooftop Bar, Yu Garden Chinese Restaurant, etc., which can meet the needs of different people. The room includes breakfast for two and executive courtesy. The executive courtesy includes lounge afternoon tea and happy hour in the evening. The afternoon tea is a three-layer photo-taking look, the taste is average, the happy hour variety is not particularly rich, there are main meals to choose from, it is no problem to eat enough, but the alcohol is still good. Breakfast has some Shanghai special snacks, small wontons, egg cakes, spicy meat noodles, Benedict eggs are all available, but compared with the room price, the product seems to be mediocre.
Facilities: The hotel has a banquet hall, spa, swimming pool, gym, among which the infinity pool and spiral staircase are beautiful for taking pictures, remember to check in if you stay.
Overall, the West Bank MGM is worth staying in. The new hotel has good hardware, fashionable design, good service, and if you don't pursue the ultimate experience, the basic room area is already very large. The golden lion at the door looks very high-end and upscale. Except for the toiletries and catering parts, I personally feel a bit average, the room is really good, worth experiencing.

West Bank New Rising Star Hotel MGM
🦁️MGM, the first thing that comes to mind is Las Vegas, USA, joy, song and dance, beauties, night feast🦁️
🥰As a hotel control, I have experienced Sanya MGM Hotel, Shanghai Bao Li Jia Hotel, this is the third. Although they were built at different times and the styles are slightly different, I stayed in them when they were new, so they are comparable. It should be said that this West Bank MGM is my favorite.
From the room area, geographical location, surrounding landscape, hardware facilities to software services, all are well controlled, the details are also in place, and the price is within a reasonable range. The gym, swimming pool, dining, etc. are all among the best in Shanghai hotels, everything is worth it

Shanghai finally has a new luxury hotel!
The beautiful scenery reaches the sky,
Looking at the city from a high place.
The plum breeze sweeps,
Lion's foot is free.
🛏【️Hotel Guide】
📍Detailed address:
No. 688 Yunjin Road, Xuhui District, Shanghai.
🚗Transportation Guide:
If you come from other provinces and choose public transportation, there is Metro Line 11 nearby. If you drive, it takes about 45 minutes from Hongqiao Hub or Pudong Airport to the hotel, which is very convenient.
🌟Highlights:
As soon as you arrive at the hotel, there is the iconic lion of MGM downstairs, which is very grand. When the orange lights are on at night, it looks like a guardian beast guarding its own territory with its head held high. The hotel just opened in 2023, located in a relatively quiet area of Xuhui Binjiang. The lobby is on the 57th floor, with marble decorations everywhere, modern and elegant. Check-in is done using a tablet for signing, which is very efficient. The room I stayed in this time is a luxury river view suite, with an area of nearly 100 square meters. As soon as you enter the room, there is a large living room. There are two layers of welcome snacks on the table. The upper layer is dessert and the lower layer is fruit. The snack box and the chair and sofa next to it are all MGM's unique dark blue, which looks very high-end. It is worth mentioning that the room also has a cloakroom. The dressing table in the cloakroom faces Xuhui Binjiang, with a panoramic view of the river view. After tidying up on the dressing table, the mood is especially beautiful.
⛱Hotel environment:
Because this room includes executive courtesies, there is afternoon tea from two thirty to four thirty in the afternoon, and happy hour from five thirty to seven thirty in the evening. The afternoon tea is a standard three-layer dessert, and the happy hour meal is also very rich. The hotel is equipped with standard swimming pool, gym, restaurant, banquet hall, etc., but lacks some parent-child elements. If you want to bring children to play, you can choose the commercial area around the hotel. There are two large shopping malls within a 5-minute walk of the hotel, with parent-child parks, cinemas, restaurants, etc., with a lot of choices. It won't be boring indoors in hot weather.
📌Summary: Overall, the hotel is newly opened, the facilities are very new, the service is very good. The last new luxury hotel in Shanghai may be the J Hotel in Shanghai Center. There has been no new experience for a while, and this time the West Bank MGM can make up for the experience of new hotels in Shanghai.

Contemporary Pudong Art on the 59th Floor
In our contemporary Shanghai, the Huangpu River is no longer the only place with stunning views. My Xuhui Riverside is definitely a new contemporary beautiful scenery line, with an artistic and atmospheric vibe! It's worth experiencing. As a native who watched Xuhui Riverside grow up, I have feelings for this land beneath my feet~
Pictures 1, 4, 8, MGM Executive Lounge, suite guests can enjoy afternoon tea and HAPPY HOURS in the evening. Although relatively simple meals, they are sufficient, and are produced by the same chef as the Western restaurant, with a good taste. There are not as many varieties as the waterfront buffet lunch~ There is an area suitable for office work, very suitable for happy office work! In the evening, there will be some special cocktails~ The lounge manager, Miss Sister, has too high emotional intelligence 😂 and she is also good-looking, which resulted in my little nephew insisting on going up to find Miss Sister every day~
Pictures 3, 6, 7, 8, 50th-floor suite
Pictures 9-11, 47th-floor guest room
As a new hotel, the facilities are all brand new, and there is nothing to pick on, definitely comfortable~ The service details are also very in place, knowing that someone has a birthday, they will put a SURPRISE little cake in the room service, the kind that looks very nice! It's a surprise~ The coffee machine is ILLY, the hairdryer is DYSON, I didn't expect them to be the brands I usually use, which makes me feel very familiar~
Pictures 2, 18, 20, are the gym, SPA, and swimming pool on the 58th and 59th floors. The pool is not big or deep, but exquisite, especially the night view on the 59th floor, truly unbeatable
Pictures 5, 14-17, 58th-floor Yu Garden Chinese Restaurant, this restaurant is a personal favorite because it's close to home, and sometimes I will come here especially for a meal. The fusion of local Shanghai cuisine and Cantonese cuisine is creative, the ingredients are very fresh, and there is almost no dish I don't like~ They will have a small romantic ceremony for birthdays, and you can choose your favorite cup for the pre-meal tea. These little details are quite lovely~
Picture 13, the buffet breakfast at the Riverside Restaurant, which has all the basics but focuses on quality, not quantity. There are traditional local Shanghai breakfast snacks~ I like the hand-painted menu on the window, it feels very warm~ There are also many baked goods because the Riverside itself has very authentic Italian baked goods. The timeline is touching, breakfast starts at 6:30 and can last until 11:00, with food replenished at any time in between.
Picture 19, the SKY BAR on the 59th floor, in the West Bund area without bars, this bar is simply a savior for the people of the West Bund~ Every cocktail is a different artistic special mix, looking almost no different from artworks, and the whole bar is a designer's masterpiece, with decorations on the top that have a high-end dizzying glamour~ There will be band performances every weekend~
There is also the 57th-floor Banyan Tree Lounge, with professional afternoon tea and band performances every day. MGM's afternoon tea is co-branded with artists, with different sets in collaboration with artists every season, never repeating, very characteristic~
I must mention that I really like the service staff here, they make people feel very comfortable when talking and treating people, and I enjoy their SERVICE (except for the gym, which is quite impolite and the quality really needs to be improved)~
The only downside might be the location, not entirely in the city center type~ But actually, within walking distance are various major art galleries and art centers, as well as the famous Longhua Temple~ You can walk to the Huangpu River for a stroll~ It caters to a crowd that loves art, with a strong artistic atmosphere~

Shanghai's newly emerged ultra-high-rise art hotel, take a look at the magic city from a different perspective.

The breathtaking views of Shanghai are not limited to the Bund. The newly established MGM Hotel on the West Bank offers a unique perspective of luxury and art. This weekend, leave the kids at home and treat yourself to a supremely relaxing staycation.
The hotel is akin to an art exhibition, with elements of blue and white porcelain adorning the lobby, corridors, and rooms. Not to mention, it houses priceless works of art. Each painting offers a magazine-worthy backdrop for your photos.
The high-rise view from the rooms on the 43rd to 56th floors offers a different perspective of the magical city of the West Bank. Take a moment to clear your mind, or simply laze around in the spacious 70-square-meter room. Enjoy a bath, sip some afternoon tea, and let the Italian Lorenzo Villoresi toiletries and Dyson hairdryer wash away your fatigue.
The cloud-top Italian restaurant offers a dual enjoyment of view and cuisine. The weekend brunch with a choice of main courses, particularly the lamb chops and eggs Benedict, is highly recommended. Indeed, good food can heal the soul.
As night falls, head to the SKY59 rooftop bar. The bright contrasting colors create a vibrant atmosphere. It is recommended to have a drink around 6 pm to witness the stunning visual experience from sunset to nightfall.
If you have time, you can also visit nearby art galleries, such as the Long Museum and the West Bank Art Museum. Art is a form of beauty that needs no explanation.

MGM Hotel West Coast
The hotel is located on the Xuhui Riverside, accessible by Metro Line 11, surrounded by numerous art galleries, the hotel is also a quality combination of art and modernity. The huge painting on the hotel building is very shocking, paired with a set of chandeliers next to it, it is very expressive. The lobby is on the 57th floor, and what you see when you arrive is a wall full of porcelain, I didn't realize it at first, but after turning around, I found that the shape of the lights at the front desk has the feeling of ancient official hats, which really shows the combination of modern art and Chinese tradition from the details. The room is clean and tidy, with a very good view, you can see the three-piece suit in the distance, the waiters in various areas of the hotel are polite and make people feel cordial and polite, very good. The overall atmosphere of the hotel matches the word luxury. I went to the swimming pool at night, the gym and the swimming pool are separated, the safety and privacy are good.

A Masterpiece of Art - MGM Hotel West Bund, Shanghai
The majestic lion at the entrance of the MGM Hotel in Shanghai is a symbol of MGM.
Stepping into the hotel lobby is like entering a unique world of art, filled with art pieces, creative paintings, and a strong artistic atmosphere.
Art pieces are everywhere, making you linger in the 57th floor sky lobby, eager to explore more treasures.
The banquet hall in the skirt building on the other side is like an art museum. Walking up the 'floating' staircase on the first floor, many artists' paintings are hung on the walls, making it a great place to appreciate art or take photos.
The room is very large and nice, with large floor-to-ceiling windows and unbeatable river views, which should be a standard feature of this type of hotel.
The service is definitely up to standard, very attentive. When we went out, they even proactively told us how to get to the mall across the street. It's worth the price. Of course, there's also the standard smile and greeting of a high-end hotel. So far, I haven't seen any shortcomings.
Riva has two of the only four blue and white porcelain pizza ovens in Shanghai! You can watch the whole process of pizza baking while dining.
The long pizza baked in 1 minute and 52 seconds, Mediterranean sea bass, Italian mushroom soup, carbonara sauce Italian thin noodles... each dish is authentic and highly praised.
The unique cocktail menu created by the joint effort of the temple ice room pays tribute to the West Bund landmark with its creative ideas. Each cocktail corresponds to a West Bund building, allowing you to immerse yourself in the clouds while drinking in the cultural history of the West Bund.

I'm floating~ Smoking two shrimp-flavored cigars as thick as fingers on the 58th floor
I've been using my eyes too much recently.
Let's smoke a cigar to soothe the eyes👀.
I accidentally discovered that MGM also has a spiral staircase.
Leading to the top swimming pool.
On a sunny day, the sky is really beautiful.
The curve of the Huangpu River is always pleasing to the eye.
The chef at Mi Er rarely disappoints.
Still the taste I like.
The cigar is crispy on the outside and tender shrimp meat inside, very refreshing.
I still love the West Bank of the Binjiang~

The high-end hotel that only those who have stayed at the MGM Hotel on the West Bank of Shanghai will understand
A MGM Hotel has opened in Xuhui Binjiang, Shanghai (688 Yunjin Road)!!! Don't miss it if you like to travel and stay in high-end and luxurious hotels!!! The location is superb, and the decoration is full of style!!!

The concierge department is on the 1st floor of the hotel, and the front desk for check-in is on the 57th floor✅
In addition, there is a 'Bai Cui Lang'☕️ on the 57th floor, which is a great place for coffee and afternoon tea, with an unbeatable view from the window💯
The 'Waterfront Italian Restaurant' is also on the 57th floor, where guests have breakfast! You can also come here for buffet, western food, and brunch on weekends!!! The food is excellent💯 and delicious😋

The 59th floor of the hotel is a very low-key luxury bar with connotations🥂 called 'SKY59', with a cool round bar and very private high-end private rooms. Of course, what I recommend most is the window seat in the glass room, where you can enjoy the night view of Xuhui Binjiang✔️ It's simply indescribable❤️
-
The location of MGM is also great, 200 meters out of the door is the 'Yunjin Road' subway station, and there are two large shopping malls nearby✔️ It's very convenient for eating, drinking, playing, and traveling, and there are many choices for takeout at night😍 And it's not as bustling as the Bund downtown area, it's a beautiful and quiet place in the bustling area❤️ Friends who come to Shanghai to play, don't miss the MGM on the West Bank!!!
