Be sure that FS Pudong has some amazing views. Even if you stay on the 'wrong side' facing away from the Bund, the views are striking.

I also think that the Chinese restaurant which has a separate entrance on the ground floor) should be really special. I was not expecting to like this hotel but came away looking forward to staying there (although Shanghai is not a frequent destination for me).
Thanks vuittonsofstyle for the update! Pudong is not a particularly nice area to stay in- however with the development that has and is continuing to spring up here- it is becoming the major business hub of Shanghai now.

The new Andaz by the way is not luxury however certainly has a wonderful location for a visitor being in the heart of Xiantindi- will be curious to see how the Langham (connected to it) works out.
