Nestled in the vibrant heart of one of Asia’s most dynamic metropolises, Hotel Chalet Shanghai stands as an architectural poem where East meets West, tradition embraces innovation, and luxury finds its most authentic expression. Located at No. 558 Hankou Road (汉口路), our establishment occupies a privileged position at the crossroads of Shanghai’s storied past and its breathtaking future.
As you step through our meticulously crafted wooden doors, you leave behind the exhilarating tempo of Shanghai’s urban symphony and enter a realm where Alpine elegance harmonizes with Chinese hospitality. Hotel Chalet Shanghai represents a bold reimagining of what a luxury urban retreat can be—a Swiss-inspired sanctuary amidst the vertical ambitions of China’s most cosmopolitan city.
HOTEL CHALET SHANGHAI
The building itself tells a fascinating story. Originally constructed in the 1930s during Shanghai’s golden age as the “Paris of the East,” our structure has been lovingly restored and transformed, preserving its art deco bones while infusing them with contemporary Alpine design elements. The exposed wooden beams, natural stone accents, and hand-carved furniture pieces create an atmosphere that transports guests from the Bund to the Bernese Oberland without sacrificing authentic Chinese touches that ground the experience firmly in Shanghai.

Our location on Hankou Road places guests at the nexus of Shanghai’s most compelling districts. Just minutes from the historic Bund with its colonial-era buildings standing in stately formation along the Huangpu River, and equally close to Nanjing Road’s shopping paradise, Hotel Chalet Shanghai offers unparalleled access to both old and new Shanghai. The nearby Yu Garden provides a glimpse into classical Chinese aesthetics, while the futuristic skyline of Pudong across the river represents China’s meteoric rise on the global stage.
What truly distinguishes Hotel Chalet Shanghai is our commitment to creating experiences rather than merely providing accommodations. Each of our 68 rooms and suites has been individually designed to tell its own story—some drawing inspiration from traditional Swiss chalets with their warm woods and cozy fireplaces, others incorporating elements of Shanghai’s art deco heritage or contemporary Chinese design. All share an unwavering commitment to craftsmanship, authenticity, and comfort that transcends cultural boundaries.
