Metropolo Classiq

Located just 10-minutes’ walk from the famous East Nanjing shopping district, this is the perfect base for those interested in spending their days snapping up retail bargains. Boasting an impressive, classic exterior and an elegant, sophisticated interior, the Metropolo is, as the name suggests, just off the main street of The Bund – but some of the rooms and balconies still offer a view of the Pearl Tower and company. The rooms start at a little over ¥1,000 (£113). However, you’ll have to spend more to get that coveted skyscraper view.
