Shanghai’s legendary hotel address since 1929, Fairmont Peace Hotel is a cherished city landmark set on The Bund. One of the city’s most sought-after properties, this global hotel icon combines historic grandeur with modern amenities, making it ideal for 21st Century luxury travelers.
First opened in 1929, Fairmont Peace Hotel, Shanghai was celebrated as the number-one mansion in the Far East. Known as the Cathay Hotel at the time, it had a prime spot and plush amenities that attracted celebrities and expats, especially at its renowned Old Jazz Bar. Today, the 270-room hotel offers the same allure, but updated, as evidenced by the indulgent Willow Stream Spa and its skylit pool. The Cathay Room offers modern European cuisine with picturesque views of the Bund and the Pudong skyline; Dragon Phoenix is the city’s premier Chinese restaurant; and the beloved Jazz Bar still serves lively tunes and timeless cocktails.
