J Hotel, Shanghai Tower: Among the Highest Hotels on Earth

J Hotel occupies the summit of the Shanghai Tower, the 632-metre spiral that is China's tallest building, making it among the highest hotels anywhere in the world and a Leading Hotels of the World Sustainability Leader. The experience is defined by altitude: guests arrive by high-speed lift to a world above the clouds over Lujiazui and the Bund.

The dining is arranged by elevation. Heavenly Jin, on the 120th floor at 556 metres, is the building's highest restaurant, serving Jiangnan and Huaiyang cuisine; Jin Yan pours high-end Cantonese on Level 103; Kinnjyou Inaka handles Japanese teppanyaki on Level 104; Centouno brings Southern Italian to Level 101; and the Yi Lounge bar anchors Level 84, with a café and lobby lounge below.

It is a hotel that turns the Shanghai skyline into an address, and one of the great high-altitude stays in the world.
