Lonely Planet Review
Instantly recognisable for its gaudy glass globes echoing the baubles of the Oriental Pearl TV Tower, this five-star entity on the east bank of the Huangpu River is attached to the Shanghai International Convention Centre Hotel.
An extra fee gets you a room with a Bund view (worth it), while another upgrade gets you a deluxe room. The spacious rooms come equipped with modern facilities; although used largely by conventions, the hotel also serves as a decent tourist choice, close to the Bund and Pudong sights without the noise and traffic. Transport options are also good, with the Lujiazui metro station on metro line No 2 nearby and the Bund Sightseeing Tunnel entrance on your doorstep, both of which can get you to Puxi. The best rooms are on the 6th floor, but it's a shame there are no balconies. Facilities include a 9th-floor swimming pool and health club and 11th-floor bar with views.

Author Tip
If you can handle it, take the low-tech Bund Sightseeing Tunnel to the Bund - otherwise stay Pudong-side and size up China's erotic dimensions at the China Sex Culture Museum.
