Top tips for finding Shanghai hotel deals

  • If you’re looking for a cheap hotel in Shanghai, you should consider visiting during the low season. You'll find cheaper accommodations in Shanghai in August and February.
  • Hotel room prices vary depending on many factors but you’ll most likely find the best hotel deals in Shanghai if you stay on a Saturday. The opposite is true for, Friday, which is usually the most expensive day.

  • How long should you stay? KAYAK users usually book their accommodation in Shanghai for 26 days.
  • For those looking to immerse themselves in the buzz of Shanghai city centre, hotels on the Bund are an attractive prospect, offering easy access to the waterfront’s many shops, bars and restaurants.
  • For a Shanghai hotel with an edgy, modern vibe, try The Waterhouse at South Bund, a boutique hotel housed within a former concrete dock house.

  • Good mid-price hotel options in Pudong include the Dorsett and Grand Mercure, which are both located near Shanghai Century Park and within a 15-minute walk of Shanghai International Convention Centre.
  • Fashionistas searching for stylish digs will relish the chance to stay in Shanghai’s colonial-style French Concession, a chic area famed for its cafes, shops and tree-lined boulevards.
  • Jing-an (called the Paris of the East) is another major draw for shopping addicts, with luxury and boutique-style hotels centred around West Nanjing Road.
  • Guests travelling with family or as part of a group will find a range of fully serviced apartments such as the De Kong Apartment Hotel in Pudong, which features an on-site restaurant, games room, and free parking.
