Heng Shan Moller Villa

$-$$$$, Luwan

Fodor's Review:

Part gingerbread dollhouse, part castle, the Heng Shan Moller Villa was built by British businessman Eric Moller to resemble a castle his daughter envisioned in a dream. The family fled Shanghai in 1941, and after 1949 the house was the Communist Youth League's headquarters. Opened as a boutique hotel in 2002, the original villa has 11 deluxe rooms and has been ostentatiously restored with parquet floors, chintzy crystal chandeliers, and too much gold paint. Standard rooms in the new Building No. 2 are disappointingly plain and service is merely perfunctory. Guests have access to the neighboring Shanghai Grand Club's excellent fitness center.
