Rezen Select Shanghai International Resort

Rezen Select Shanghai International Resort Overview

First Impressions

The Rezen Select Shanghai International Resort sits in Shanghai’s Pudong district, and honestly, it feels like discovering a hidden gem in one of the world’s busiest cities. This four-star property manages to create that resort atmosphere you’re craving without being too far from the action — though you’ll definitely want to factor in some travel time to get to the Bund or downtown areas. The moment you walk in, there’s this immediate sense that someone actually thought about what travelers need, not just what looks good in photos.

The Pudong Advantage

Look, Pudong gets a bad rap sometimes for being too modern or sterile, but staying here gives you a completely different perspective on Shanghai. You’re close enough to the airport that you won’t stress about early flights, but far enough into the district that you get to see how locals actually live and work. The Miaojing Road location means you’ll discover authentic neighborhood spots — little noodle shops and convenience stores that most tourists never find. I mean, couples consistently rate this place highly for romantic getaways, and I think it’s partly because you feel like you’re experiencing the real Shanghai together.

Rooms That Actually Work

The room setup here is what I’d call thoughtfully practical. You know how some hotels look great but then you can’t figure out where to plug in your phone? Not an issue here. The spaces feel generous without being overwhelming, and there’s actual storage space for your stuff — something you’ll appreciate if you’re doing any serious shopping in Shanghai. The beds are comfortable in that firm-but-not-hard way that seems to work for most people, and the bathrooms have decent water pressure, which honestly can be hit or miss in this part of the world.

Food and Practical Perks

Breakfast is where this place really shows its understanding of international travelers. They’ve got the Asian options you’d expect — congee, dim sum, fresh fruit — but also American-style choices and a proper buffet setup that doesn’t feel chaotic even when it’s busy. The restaurant staff seems to genuinely care about dietary restrictions too, which is refreshing. And here’s something that’ll save you money and hassle: free parking is actually available, which is pretty rare for Shanghai hotels. If you’re planning any day trips or have a rental car, that’s a huge plus.

Why Guests Love It

What keeps people coming back, I think, is how this place balances being a proper resort experience with staying connected to Shanghai’s energy. You can have a quiet morning by the pool, then hop on the metro and be in the thick of things within reasonable time. The staff genuinely seems to know the area well — they’ll give you actual directions, not just hand you a tourist map. It’s particularly great for couples because you get that sense of escape without feeling completely isolated from the city you came to explore. The whole experience feels more authentic than staying in some of the more obvious tourist areas, and honestly, that’s worth a lot when you’re trying to really experience Shanghai rather than just check it off a list.

Reviews of Rezen Select Shanghai International Resort

• Ching from Taiwan – 28 May 2025 (5/10)

  第一晚是戴著口罩睡覺的 但還是受不了整個房間內的煙味，第二晚直接把外窗關起來就完全沒煙味了，但房間內偶爾會有一點點點點點的煙味應該是有人不自愛在房間內抽煙，整體而言有自知之明，習慣怎麼做就可克服，問題是有人是住一二晚就沒續住的，所以等習慣了已經帶著失望離開了，很可惜本打算下個月續住一周，現在……應該不會去了
  
  What could be improved: 客人不自愛邊走邊抽煙從封閉的電梯出來，員工看到也未置可否，自然人（個人）法人（酒店）依法是不行的

• Luis from Spain – 21 April 2025 (8/10)

  What could be improved: No hay donde tomarse un cafe

• Ilya from Russia – 19 April 2025 (8/10)

  Good hotel for Shanghai Pudong transfer. Early check-in, late check-out, friendly staff, 15 minuts from terminal, near metro station, good breakfest, but chinese eat.
  
  What could be improved: It's very hard to understand conditioner management.

• Olesia from Vietnam – 12 April 2025 (8/10)

  Все было отлично, кроме отсутствие вай фай, так как нужно было подтвердить смс, но у меня российская карта в роуминге и смс не приходило
  
  What could be improved: Нет вайфай
