URBN Hotels Shanghai - Shanghai, China
About this Chic Retreat
The young, energetic owners of URBN Hotels Shanghai, the newest hip hotel to hit Shanghai have lived and worked in Shanghai for over 10 years giving them first hand knowledge of the city. This valuable knowledge enables them to give their guests a truly unique experience.
At URBN Hotels they believe that a city is more than a tourist destination, it's a place with an individual personality and character waiting to be discovered and enjoyed by each and every visitor. Whether for business or leisure, they offer an unforgettable experience in Shanghai. This cutting edge boutique hotel is set in a vibrant hub of local activity, close to shops, restaurants, colonial lane houses and the famous former French Concession. Conveniently located two blocks away from Nanjing Road - Shanghai's premium shopping, entertainment, and business district - URBN's intention is to embrace the surrounding city and embody its culture.
URBN Hotels is also recognised as China's 1st carbon neutral boutique hotel. The total amount of energy this hotel consumes, including staff commutes, food and beverage delivery, and the energy used by each guest, will be tracked to calculate the carbon footprint. URBN will then purchase credits to neutralize its footprint by investing in green energy development in China. Guests staying at this chic retreat can also choose to purchase carbon credits from the program to offset their flights.
