Kerry Hotel, Pudong, Shanghai

The Kerry Hotel sits on Huamu Road. It is steps away from Century Park and the Shanghai Science and Technology Museum.

The hotel wins over the Pudong high-rises by prioritising space over sheer height. While neighbouring hotels push guests toward the crowded shopping corridors of the Super Brand Mall, the Kerry keeps you firmly on the edge of the city’s largest green space. Choosing this address means trading the frantic pace of the central business district for a gym and spa setup that feels like an actual club rather than an afterthought. It is a more practical base for those who value proximity to the park’s running paths over the congestion of the riverfront.
