Built around the former French Club (Cercle Sportif Français) at 58 Maoming Road South, Okura Garden Hotel Shanghai preserves much of its 1920s Art Deco heritage within the French Concession district of Xuhui. The historic clubhouse building, with its ballroom and garden grounds, now forms part of a larger hotel complex operated with Japanese management standards. Rooms span Superior, Deluxe, and Garden Suite categories, some overlooking the property's mature garden. Dining includes multiple restaurants and a bar, several housed within the original Art Deco structure. Facilities include an outdoor pool, spa, and fitness centre set among the garden grounds. The hotel's French Concession location places it within walking distance of tree-lined streets, cafes, and the Xujiahui shopping district, appealing to guests interested in Shanghai's colonial-era architecture as well as travelers seeking a quieter alternative to the city's high-rise hotel towers.
