The Moller Villa (Male zhuzhai, 马勒住宅), located at .30 South Shanxi Road in the French Concession area of Shanghai, China, is a colonial-era mansion.[1] The villa was built by Eric Moller, a Swedish shipping magnate, in 1936. The distinctive design includes brown-tiled Gothic and Tudor gables, spires, and steeples.

In 2001, the Hengshan Group began to renovate to the villa, preserving its original architectural style.[2] The building now houses a hotel.[3]
