The InterContinental Shanghai Wonderland, a stunning creation by the Shimao Group, goes beyond being just a hotel—it is a true architectural marvel. Constructed within a deep quarry, plunging 88 meters below the ground, it clings to the cliffside of this unique landscape. The hotel has garnered global recognition, even earning praise from National Geographic as a “miracle of world architecture.” Shimao’s commitment to harmonizing urban development with nature is evident in this project, where a once-scarred landscape is transformed into a beautiful retreat for guests to enjoy an unforgettable experience.
20 Years of Excellence: Special Anniversary Offerings
To celebrate the 20th anniversary of Shimao’s hospitality division, the hotel is offering exclusive voucher deals worth RMB 2,888. These vouchers provide guests access to 31 hotels in 20 cities, with the potential to stay up to 10 nights, inclusive of breakfast for two. The offer is valid for two years, and guests can also enjoy a 15% discount on dining. Whether it’s a one-night stay at the InterContinental Shanghai Wonderland, or two nights with additional nights at sister hotels, these options cater to various travel preferences.
Exclusive Packages: Tailored Adventures Await
The hotel partners with nearby attractions, such as the Hidden Quarry, the whimsical Smurfs park, Shanghai Film Park, and more, to offer themed packages. Whether you’re a family seeking a cozy retreat, a couple looking for a romantic getaway, or a solo traveler ready for an adventure, the hotel offers a one-night or two-night themed stay. Each package is designed as a personalized adventure, inviting guests to explore and enjoy a unique experience curated just for them.
Curated Experiences: Discover the Quarry’s Story
For guests fascinated by the hotel’s remarkable setting, the InterContinental Shanghai Wonderland provides a curated tour to explore its design and the cultural history of the area. The experience takes guests on a journey through the past, revealing the origins of the quarry and the thought behind its transformation into one of the world’s most talked-about hotels. This tour offers a deeper appreciation of the hotel’s breathtaking architecture and its place in the surrounding landscape.
Light Show Spectacle: A Journey Through Myth and Legend
The hotel’s innovative use of the quarry’s natural cliffside has resulted in the creation of an immersive light show, titled “The Hidden Dream of Mountains and Seas.” This show blends elements from ancient Chinese mythological texts like The Classic of Mountains and Seas with themes from the classic literary work Journey to the Center of the Earth. Each evening, guests can witness the dramatic 18,000-square-meter light and shadow performance from their rooms or from the hotel’s central platform. Custom projections, including personalized logos, can be arranged for special events, adding a memorable touch to any celebration.
Symphony of Sounds: Musical Performances to Enrich Your Stay
In collaboration with the Shanghai Light Music Orchestra, the only state-run orchestra specializing in light music in China, the hotel will host a series of grand concerts during major holidays such as National Day, Halloween, Christmas, and New Year’s Eve. The ensemble, featuring renowned performers, will grace the hotel’s various venues with their melodic tunes, enhancing the ambiance and providing a magical auditory experience for guests.
