18 Zhongshan Dong Yi Road 4F (near Nanjing Dong Lu) Shanghai Huangpu DistrictLocal Language Address: 中山东一路18号4楼
+86 21 6323-8399
In order to standout amongst fierce competition, an upscale lounge always has to offer something new in the market. When Lounge 18 emerged, it has distinguished itself from the usual lounge by offering a unique concept of incorporating the classic Shanghai night life with modern furniture and décor. At first glance this place looks like a classic colonial space until you notice that the interiors ... read more > -

88 Henan Zhong Lu 2/F, The Westin Shanghai Shanghai Huangpu District+86 21 6335-1888--7342
Live jazz is played at this lounge bar, and the music is felicitous as it has a jazzy aura, even when the band isn’t around. Down to the muted lighting and the tones of the surroundings, but this truly is a lounge. A good wine list, with drinks reasonably priced, make this venue an attraction too. You can get snacks if you’re looking for a quick bite too. Closes an hour earlier than many other bar ... read more > -

33 Fucheng Lu 36/F, Pudong Shangri-La near Lujia Xi Lu, Metro Line 2 Lujiazui Station Shanghai+86 21 6882-3636
With its French restaurant, you could spend an entire evening here, although the prices are in line with the service and surroundings. The intimate venue (relative to similar ones) features marble flooring and sculpture work. As the DJ spins the sounds, you can enjoy views of Shanghai in a low key lighting environment. Velour tones and greens give the hint that you’re in a decadently furnished cas ... read more > -

199 Huangpu Lu 32/F, West Tower, Hyatt on the Bund near Wuchang Lu Shanghai+86 21 6393-1234 ext.6348
You arrive by glass elevator and this hotel bar is a top floor venue in every sense. A chill out zone venue with a Jacuzzi, some great beats, day beds, and comfortable outdoor seating, among its many benefits. The view itself is worth coming for. Great for a cocktail fueled evening when the weather is fine, with fruit based caipirinhas available including rum & kiwi and vodka & mango combination. ... read more > -
