A bold art-focused tower on Shanghai’s revitalized West Bund, MGM Shanghai combines enormous high-floor rooms, Huangpu River views, destination dining and elevated wellness within walking distance of major museums and galleries.
MGM Shanghai West Bund rises beside the Huangpu River in Xuhui, surrounded by the museums, galleries and converted industrial spaces that have turned the West Bund into one of the city’s most active cultural districts.
All 219 rooms and suites occupy floors 43 through 56, giving even entry categories a strong sense of height. Rooms start at unusually generous sizes and use floor-to-ceiling glass to frame the river, Lujiazui skyline and surrounding art district.
Art and cinematic references are integrated throughout the hotel, reflecting MGM’s entertainment heritage and the neighborhood’s creative identity. The interiors use natural woods, Chinese decorative elements and carefully curated installations rather than casino-style spectacle.
Restaurants include contemporary Chinese and Mediterranean concepts, while SKY59 creates a high-altitude evening venue above the river. Tria Spa, an elevated pool and a 24-hour Sky Gym extend the panoramic experience into wellness.
MGM Shanghai West Bund is best for travelers who want to explore a newer, more design-driven side of Shanghai. Its room size, views and immediate access to the West Bund’s cultural institutions make it especially compelling for repeat visitors.
