Astor House Hotel

Dating back to 1846 when the Richard family established the very first western-style hotel in China, it has forged a reputation for world-class services and facilities. The Neoclassical Baroque building has been restored to its original splendour and currently welcomes all visitors of Shanghai at the perfect location for exploring the city. Standing at the 1500-metre long promenade known as The Bund or also the "Wall Street of the Far East", this hotel is close to a number of corporate offices, splendid buildings and boutique shops. Executives visiting the hotel can use any of its small rooms or banquet halls of the onsite Richard's Restaurant to stage a business, a big conference or to simply enjoy the world famous cuisine. When it comes to relaxing the hotel's Massage Centre is one of the best and most professional Chinese centres and offers a special balneal foot treatment.
