One of the top rated boutique hotels in Shanghai, the diminutive Magnolia Bed & Breakfast Shanghai is situated in Shanghai's historic French Concession area. Built in one of the neighborhood's original 1930’s structures on a small street, the Magnolia offers its guests a view onto quiet, tree-lined streets replete with atmosphere and architecture from that famous era.
Building and design elements from the Shanghai Art Deco period have been renovated and refurbished with an eye towards contemporary comfort. Each room features original artwork by local and international artists specially chosen to complement the unique combination of vintage and custom-designed furnishings, colors, fixtures and fabrics in keeping with the era of the building and neighborhood.
The ground floor sitting room is an area where are guests can relax, take breakfast, enjoy a beverage, and attend to their communication needs. The surrounding neighborhood is alive with the sights, sounds and smells of authentic Shanghai street life, as locals go about their business outside traditional lane houses scattered along tree-lined French Concession streets.
21st-century Shanghai is never far away, either. The Magnolia is just minutes from a dizzying array of shops, restaurants and attractions as well as two Metro stations connectingt the neighborhood to the rest of the city. In all directions, cosmopolitan restaurants and small local dumpling houses sit side by side, and meandering lanes are filled with fruit vendors, hip boutiques, antique stores, cafés, and everything else Shanghai’s most diverse and vibrant neighborhood has to offer.
