The LOCATION, rooms and breakfast are what gives this hotel a top rating. The staff pulls the rating way down. The people that work there have been around to long. When Fairmont bought the hotel they were required to keep the previous staff. BIG MISTAKE. But being able to walk out in either the morning or evening and view the... More

I recently revisited the Peace, after staying there 18 months ago with my family, and also staying there in 1992, when it had not yet been refurbished, but was still full of charm. It is without question the most unique property in China. No hotel has the location of the Peace or the history, and Fairmont has done an unbelievable... More

I have been to the Peace Hotel twice now over the last 9 months. My first experience was so great that I wanted to stay again. Unfortunately, according to the booking site I was only able to stay at the hotel for 6 of the 9 days that I would be in Shanghai. This would have made it so that... More

I was lucky enough to stay at the Peace Hotel before it was 'refurbished' and must admit at being some what worried as to what a refurbished Peace Hotel would be like....would they loose the essence, would they modernize it??? The answer is they have created a stunning beautiful and elegant hotel that looks back to a bygone era but... More

Right on the Bund this old hotel is well kept and well managed. Staff are courteous and efficient. The Fairmont rooms are definitely up to Fairmont standards - why these high end hotels don't have comfortable seating in their rooms and their lobbies I'm not too sure, but otherwise no complaints. The breakfast buffet is in a different wing that... More

Formerly called the Cathay Jazz Club, it is located in the recently remodeled Fairmont Peace Hotel built in 1929 by Victor Sassoon. The band, which plays nightly at 7:00 PM, is not much, musically speaking, but the historic value of the building itself makes the site worthwhile to visit. We were there on a Saturday evening from 7:00 PM until... More
