In the heart of Shanghai, right by People's Park, Radisson Blu Hotel Shanghai New World is a towering upscale property with 520 rooms. Decor is simple and businesslike, and all rooms come with desks, minibars, and marble bathrooms. While many have great city views, some lack windows. Facilities at this Radisson Blu Shanghai are extensive, with five bars and restaurants, including the popular Epicure on 45, a revolving restaurant with great city views and fun Sunday Champagne brunches. There's also a business center, a ballroom and other meeting venues, a big indoor pool with a hot tub, and a wide variety of recreational facilities, with a gym, squash courts, and a spa. Travelers shopping around may want to also consider the Fairmont Peace Hotel on the Bund. It's a bit pricier, but worth the splurge.
