Shanghai has emerged as one of the hottest hotel markets of the moment, with the brand new Four Seasons and Luxury Collection hotels. The new Bulgari Hotel in Shanghai will occupy the top 12 floors of a 40-storey riverside building designed by acclaimed architects Foster+Partners, and situated in the Zhabei District.
