Tips for getting a cheap hotel in Shanghai

Whether you want a luxury hotel in Shanghai or a more modest one, you don't have to pay full price.

Use these tips, and save:

• Hotels.com—Save by booking online. Hotels.com offers hotels in Shanghai and throughout China, and the ones listed first are discounted most.
  
  For these, you are guaranteed to receive the best on-line price of any site that allows you to book a specific hotel or resort prior to paying.
  
  
• Priceline.com Hotels—You can save even more—often much more—by picking the price, quality, and neighborhood, but not a specific hotel before paying.
  
  Priceline gives you a choice of four hotel districts in Shanghai: (See the map on the priceline site.)
  
  • Changning
  • Huangpu
  • Pudong
    
  
  Hotel quality ranges from 1 to 5 stars—with biggest discounts for 4-star hotels. Because Hotels.com uses almost the same star ranking system, refer to it for examples.
  
  With priceline, you are guaranteed the best price of all on-line sites. Of course, this applies to the same hotel, room type, dates, etc.
