A Shanghai landmark for nearly a century, the Peace Hotel is
known as the most famous hotel in China. This hotel is located
in the prime downtown Shanghai - situated at the doorstep to the
Bund - Shanghai's most famous landmark. The stretch of road
outside the hotel is called Nanjing Road - the busiest
pedestrain shopping mall in Shanghai. The Peace Hotel, formerly
known as the Cathay Hotel, was built in 1929 and is still
symbolized as the most luxurious"No.1 Mansion in the Far East".
The Hotel is composed of two former hotels separated by a
street. The North and the South Buildings were built in 1929 and
1906. After the founding of the People's Republic of China in
1949, the North Building reopened in 1956, and the South
Building in 1965, both operating under the name of the Peace
Hotel. And after recent renovation, all the rooms and
restaurants are furnished with first-class facilities to provide
guests with the best comfort and convenience. Strolling to Peace
Hotel, you may either sit with a sip of fragrant coffee and
enjoy the Jazz music, popular in 1930's and 1940's in the Jazz
Bar, or enjoy the cocktail and the excellent view of the Bund
and river in Shanghai Night Bar. After recent renovation, guest
here will enjoy a full range of facilities that include a fully
equipped gymnasium, beauty saloon, massage, back store, and
business center. Peace Hotel is an ideal place for work, stay,
leisure, entertainment and shopping for businessmen. Peace Hotel
is truly a fusion of ancient and modern, Eastern and Western |
