The Bar/Lounge at Waldorf Astoria Shanghai on the Bund

"The Shanghai Club's famous Long Bar (named for its 100+ feet of bar counter) has been recreated on the lobby level, bringing a sense of beauty and grandeur from the early 1910s"

"The Waldorf Astoria is comprised of two buildings: the restored Heritage Building — which has 100-year-old marble floors and contains the hotel’s restaurants, bar and 20 carefully-restored suites — and the recently constructed 24-story Waldorf Astoria building where the majority of rooms are located"

"There’s a pronounced New York–meets-Shànghǎi theme here, from the Peacock Lounge to the cocktail list at the Long Bar"

"In addition to opulent colonial-style suites (poster beds, walk-in closets, claw-foot tubs), the old building, now called the Waldorf Astoria Club, has a jaw-dropping 110-foot-long bar with Bund views"

"Peacock Alley, the promenade that connects the two buildings and looks onto the courtyard, houses restaurants and lounges"

"Peacock Alley and the Long Bar, the elegant colonial-era place where guests once sat in order of importance, propose a lengthy list of cocktails, wine, champagnes and other beverages to entertain the palate from afternoon until early morning"
