Hong Kong, 30 March 2014 – From 1 April 2014 onwards, guests booking the highest category suites at Mandarin Oriental Pudong, Shanghai can enjoy a complimentary sunset cruise aboard a luxury yacht along the iconic Huangpu River.
Mandarin Oriental
Pudong, Shanghai has partnered with the new Shanghai Metropolitan Marine
Yacht Club, which is located adjacent to the hotel on Pudong’s Harbour
City riverfront, to offer a spellbinding waterborne experience of
Shanghai’s landmark sites and dazzling skyline.
Guests staying in a Pearl Tower Suite category and above can opt to experience the Sunset City Cruise
during their stay. The atmospheric adventure begins with a
complimentary glass of Champagne at the Club Lounge. Guests will then be
escorted to the marina to board the luxury yacht.
The journey transports
Mandarin Oriental guests along Shanghai’s famous Huangpu River, passing
between the heritage buildings of The Bund and the neon-lit skyline of
Pudong, dominated by the new 650-metre-high Shanghai Tower, the world’s
second-tallest tower. A Mandarin Oriental butler will be on board to
point out the city’s premier landmarks and snap souvenir photographs of
the experience.
Following the magical Sunset City Cruise, the hotel will be happy to pre-book a table at one of the hotel’s restaurants, should guests wish to dine in-house. Zest offers a more casual dining ambience while Fifty 8 Grill showcases contemporary French cuisine created by award-winning chef Richard Ekkebus. Alternatively, Yong Yi Ting has a menu of delicious regional Jiang Nan cuisine.
