History
The Westin Bund Center, Shanghai opened in October 2002 inside Bund Center at 88 Henan Middle Road, Huangpu, as the first five-star international hotel in that complex. Shanghai Golden Bund Real Estate, led by Elijah Widjaja, developed the block with a 50-story office tower, the hotel, and apartments. Hirsch Bedner Associates designed the hotel interiors. The opening press described 301 suite-style rooms. Time Out Shanghai later wrote that a second tower opened about five years on, and published counts now run from the high 550s to about 570. The opening also brought the first Banyan Tree spa on the Chinese mainland. The spa floor now runs as ISpa.
