Situated on Hengshan Road in Shanghai, Twelve at Hengshan is a serene oasis in the heart of a modern metropolis. Surrounded by tranquil tree-lined avenues, cafés, galleries, boutiques, townhouses, and perfectly preserved Art Deco buildings, the hotel is just minutes from the many historical and cultural sites that have designated Shanghai the “Paris of the East.”

Twelve at Hengshan’s rooms inspire and delight with a soothing palette of cream, white, and gold, with light wood accents and a Chinese motif adding a delicate feel to the space. Upon entering, oversized windows, framed by opulent curtains, open to views of the city. The bed offers unimagined comfort, dressed in crisp white linens. A pink silk throw brings added allure. Stylish reading lights frame each side of the gold chinoisserie-style wood paneled headboard. The elegantly appointed bathroom, light-colored wood and pops of red add finesse and flair to the spa-like space. A dual rainforest shower and oval bathtub invite guests to linger.

Upon entering Twelve Hengshan, a show table featuring the restaurant’s sumptuous fare hints at the unforgettable dining experience ahead. Further inside, large porcelain chandeliers lend soft light to the beautifully appointed tables, as well as the abstract Chinese folklore expertly placed throughout the space. Rose-colored glass screens and a large curved art wall add intimacy to each meal, while eight distinctive dining rooms are available to host groups of 5 to 18 guests for a truly private dining experience. Each space includes hand-selected artwork, providing the perfect backdrop to the organic Cantonese fare on offer.
