Wonderful Stay Experience
A wonderful getaway with my fiancée.
Our experience at Banyan Tree Shanghai On The Bund was truly unforgettable, thanks to the exceptional service. From the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond. The staff that welcomed us and walked us through our room, gave a detailed introduction to its features and ensure we knew where everything located. When we could not find our WIFI login details, she responded quickly and responsibly, ensuring we had everything we needed. The level of care and attention to details was impressive.
The room itself was spacious, with a comfortable bed and well maintained interior. It felt like every detail was thoughtfully prepared to make our stay as relaxing as possible.
Breakfast was another highlight. There was a great variety, from western options to Chinese dishes included waffle, pastries, noodle, egg station and more. We especially enjoyed the Greek Yogurt.
Bayan Tree Shanghai On the Bund continues to impress us with its warm hospitality, comfortable rooms and excellent service. We highly recommend this place for anyone visiting for Shanghai.

I enjoyed the trip comfortably with Deslin's kind response.
As I saw in other reviews, the facility was old, and the smell of the room with the bathtub was not refreshing. But throughout the stay, the bathtub maintained in temperature, and the view outside the window were fantastic.
데슬린의 친절한 응대로 편안하게 여행을 즐겼습니다.
다른 리뷰에서 본 것 처럼 시설은 오래되었고, 욕조가 있는 방의 냄새는 상쾌하지 않았습니다.
하지만 숙박 내내 온도가 유지되는 욕조와 창 밖 전경은 환상적이였습니다.

The way the hotel manager operates the Banyan Tree Shanghai On The Bund is akin to a dishonest egg seller in a wet market. One asked for egg A but is given egg B, C and D but not A.
I have booked a Panorama Riverside Retreat-King room but was told that the room is not ready at 12pm when we reached the hotel. At close to check-in time 3pm, I was offered a free room upgrade to a bigger room at the corner of the hotel with 270 degree view. Sounds good? We can in fact see only 45 degree view or less of the bund, the rest of view is surrounding buildings and trees. The room is warm and dry. I asked to change it back to the original room we booked but the front desk staff said it was not ready (at check-in time 3pm?).
Another lady took over, I assumed she is the front desk manager. So, she offered a similar but better "upgraded room" with the view of the Oriental Pearl tower. The room is at the other corner of the hotel. The moment I stepped into the room, I felt extremely uncomfortable and there was no view of the bund, only trees.
I wanted the view of the bund when I booked the room, not the Oriental Pearl Tower. It was a West facing room with direct sunlight shining through. Extremely warm and extremely unlivable. I requested to change it back to the original room. The lady staff told me to remain in the room until the original room is ready.
In the meantime, the manager showed me another room that she claimed is smaller but reserved for a guest (with two single beds). I stepped into the room, my, isn't this the room type that I have booked? Bund view minus the king size bed. Why is it that the room has been secured for the guest who has not turned up at 3.30pm but our room is not ready and reserved for us at 3pm?
The manager kept trying to convince me that the room is small and the upgraded room is bigger. I told her it didn't matter if the room is small as long as I can see the view of the bund.
So, we waited until around 4.20pm in the hot and sunny corner room as suggested. We suspected that the staff or manager is not going to change the room for us. So, I went to the front desk again and this time is a male staff who helped looked through the room options and finally allocated a room that he claimed again is an upgraded room but smaller than the corner rooms. I have to keep emphasise that all I want is the view of the bund, room size is secondary and I already know the size at time of booking. How small can a Banyan Tree hotel room be anyway? By the way, the room we booked is still not ready at 4.30pm and was told they still need half an hour.
So, after wasting an entire afternoon with the front desk manager, having paid for our room, we eventually got a room with the bund view and the oriental pearl tower. Why do the hotel front desk people want to make guests go through the hassles. I had headache after going through this episode of rooms viewing. Imagine viewing 4 rooms in one afternoon! Doesn't this sound like buying eggs from a dishonest egg seller in a wet market? The front desk manager and the team have lowered the image of the Banyan Tree, making it cheap and developing mistrust between the guests and the brand.
We have in fact travelled close to 3 hours from the Hangzhou Banyan Tree to the one in Shanghai, only to find the huge contrast in hospitality standards.
I gave Hangzhou Banyan Tree a 5/5 rating. The Shanghai on the bund Banyan Tree is a 2/5 rating. 2 stars are for the helpful and friendly staffs working on the ground and room service.
The Front desk manager is grooming a team of liars, it is very damaging to the Banyan Tree brand.
No use apologising after guests gave negative comments. Please do something about it.

First and foremost, please accept my deepest personal apologies for the disappointing experience you endured during your recent stay with us. Your detailed account has made us fully aware of the lapses in our service, and I am truly sorry for the inconvenience and frustration we caused you. This is not the Banyan Tree experience we promise, nor what you deserved after your journey from Hangzhou. We will conduct a thorough review of this incident with the front-desk team, especially the manager involved, to enhance our communication, coordination, and room - handling procedures.
Your feedback is invaluable to us in this process of improvement. We will take immediate steps to rectify the situation and restore your trust in the Banyan Tree brand. I hope you will consider giving us another opportunity to show you the high-quality service that Banyan Tree is known for. -- Christoph Kamieth General Manager
