The Middle House
Urban sophistication and class become one at The Middle House hotel and residences located in the heart of downtown Shanghai. Designed by renowned Italian architect Piero Lissoni, The Middle House offers 111 guest rooms and 102 serviced apartments — The Middle House Residences — all of which feature a luxurious, yet simple and elegant, style of décor. Further adding to the ambience is an exquisite collection of artistic pieces including porcelain and ceramic works, paintings, photography, and more, which serve to complement Lissoni’s overall design concept of “dignity and refinement”. The Middle House is also service-oriented, with available options for guests such as house vehicles and a hassle-free, paperless arrival and departure system. A multifaceted Spa and Wellness Center with an extensive retail space, juice bar, and 24-hour gym facilities, among other amenities, affords Middle House guests the ability to relax in a tranquil setting after busy days spent in the thick of the city’s hustle and bustle.
Why We Love This Hotel
Lissoni’s Vision: The Middle House Shanghai, with its bold, clean lines and striking silhouettes adorning its public spaces, guest rooms, and residences, is an architectural triumph crafted by Lissoni Architettura.
Relaxation Amid Activity: Whether passing through Shanghai for business or for pleasure, The Middle House’s spa and wellness offerings abound. Try one of the luxurious treatments by CHA LING, or take an evening dip in the expansive indoor heated pool, to unwind after a busy day.
Culinary Variety: Guests may experience the height of dining in Shanghai without even stepping foot off hotel grounds. The Middle House’s three restaurants, Café Gray Deluxe, Frasca, and Sui Tang Li, serve gourmet dishes that are inspired by regional and culinary traditions and paired with expertly selected wines and cocktails.
