Classic luxury at The Portman Ritz Carlton, Shanghai

Portman Ritz Carlton, Shanghai

Who? The Portman Ritz Carlton, Shanghai

What? The Portman Ritz Carlton in Shanghai has been an instant classic since the day it opened decades ago. Situated in the heart of Puxi, it’s ideally located for visiting many of Shanghai’s best known tourist sites. Of course, it wouldn’t be Ritz Carlton without being sumptuously luxurious inside, which of course it is. But while it’s a bit of a legend in the city, and it continues to collect accolades in the likes of Condé Nast Traveler’s Best Of lists, it’s open to innovation too. Cue, their recently launched Most Handsome Brunch in town. Another instant classic, we think.

When? Open year round

Where? 1376 Nanjing West Rd, Jing’an, Shanghai, China, 200040
