Stats

A new luxury option for leisure travelers is the PuLi. Located in the French Concession, I was immediately struck by the simple serenity of the lobby and its very elegant, Zen-like design. This is a smaller hotel with just 229 rooms. PuLi advertises itself as an "urban retreat," and this is a good description of what to expect here. The hotel is adjacent to an open green space, and I found its setting next to a park very appealing.

Room

We were shown three rooms. The lead-in Grand Room is 48 sqm with an open design. In the room we were shown, the bedroom area was to the left side of the room, and the bathroom area was on the right side. Sliding screens could be used to provide a visual screen between the two areas. Bathrooms had two sinks with a small ledge above each sink (but no vanity). There is a step-in shower, as well as a soaking tub with a view out the windows. Definitely request a room overlooking the park side of the hotel.

The Junior Suite is quite large but not worth the upgrade. While the room is a large 82 sqm, located on the four corners of the building, it comes with a very cramped Bathroom with only 1 sink. I would advise against accepting an upgrade unless you are a single traveler; a couple would not be happy in this room.

The One BR Suite is huge and impressive 85 square meters with 1.5 baths.
