History
The Yangtze Hotel opened in 1933 at 740 Hankou Road, just off East Nanjing Road, an Art Deco house credited to Chinese architect Li Pan. Interwar Shanghai treated it as a nightclub-and-cinema address, and one history ties it to the first life of the song 'Rose, Rose, I Love You.' A 2023 renovation refreshed 103 rooms while keeping the 1930s character. Historic Hotels Worldwide member; now in the TUI BLUE book.
The setting
Yangtze Boutique Shanghai Hotel occupies 740 Hankou Road in Huangpu's historic commercial core, just off East Nanjing Road — a corridor anchoring Shanghai's retail life since the early twentieth century. The Shanghai Museum is a twelve-minute walk south through People's Square, whose Beaux-Arts civic buildings — the Grand Theatre and Urban Planning Exhibition Hall — define the neighbourhood's refined character. The Bund waterfront lies close to the east, and a concentration of heritage properties nearby makes this a compelling address for travellers seeking the cultural and architectural heart of old Shanghai. 5 km from 468-meter-tall Oriental Pearl Tower.
