Intellectuals and writers too have been charmed by the city.These have included Bertrand Russell, Rabindranath Tagore, and Bernard Shaw, toname a few. The tenacity of Shanghaiis truly remarkable; it has pulled itself back with incredible vigor from thebrink of war and economic setback to emerge as an industrial force that therest of the world cannot help taking notice of. The city is a curious blend ofthe east and west with something in it for everyone. And right in the midst ofit all is The Portman Ritz Carlton Shanghai, past the majestic Bund buildings,soaring up to 45 storeys. The five star luxury hotel Portman Ritz CarltonShanghai israther massive with 610 suites and guest rooms with all of them giving out to ajaw-dropping skyline view of the city. The interiors are plush and comfortableand redolent with contemporary Chinese design. Each guest room featuresbeautiful artwork, large wardrobes, lighting controls by the bedside, 32-inchscreen LCD television sets, high speed internet amongst other things.                                                                                  When you take the elevator up to the top floor of thisluxury hotel you will come across the Penthouse Suites designed by Australianarchitects and decorators. While Chinese artifacts adorn these two-bedroomsuites their finish is distinctively Italian. Each of these rooms offer a lavish setting and exclusivitythat reach out to the guest in a warm, welcoming clinch.                                                                                                              You can step out into any of the cafes in the city or dinein any of the restaurants inside this luxury five star hotel.  If you land in Shanghaion a Sunday morning you might like to avail of the Sunday Champagne Brunch witha lavish buffet spread at the restaurant called, rather laconically, Tables. Onother days too, the food served is excellent. Do sample the FragrantThai-roasted Duck Red Curry and the Won Ton Noodle Soup. Tables does not simplycater to Asian cuisine, however. The purely western-styled pistachio-crustedbroiled filet of fish has to be tasted to be believed. And if you specificallylike Italian then we suggest you try out the pastas that Tables has to offer.  For the hip crowd there is the Ritz Bar in a truly ritzy,modern setting. While sipping a cocktail and snacking off nibbles from anexciting assorted cheese plate you can have a whale of an evening listening tomodern jazz every week night from Monday to Saturday. And if you cannot live without some truly amazing sushi wesuggest you try out the 9-seat sushi bar at Hanagatami which has been awardedseveral times over for its sophisticated Asian cuisine. Apart from the sushiservings, its teppanyaki and kaiseki offerings too come highly recommended.Guests delight in its refined Japanese-cum-modern décor while sampling suchpalatable, tongue-tingling fare.  During your stay at The Portman Ritz-Carlton do not miss itsluxury spa for a day. Its plush sauna and solarium, not to mention the beautytreatments and massages, will take you away from the cares of the world into amode of meditation and relaxation. And all of it Shanghai style!
