Shanghai Hotels
We (3 people) are thinking about visiting Shanghai for 10 days next april and don't know where to stay without having to pay a fortune (our hotel budget is about 250$/night for a twin room). Any ideas where to stay?
Thanks in advance!

Check if you have any friends with good corporate rates at global hotel chains. Company ID is rarely checked. I stayed at Grand Hyatt for significantly under your budget.

10 days is quite a long time unless you intend to prowl through every sector, every museum, every street market, etc. You can take day trips out to visit several destinations in the surrounding area of Shanghai.
Have you already been to Beijing, Xian, etc.

as i've said before, location is key in sh and i generally prefer locations between nj road and fuxing road // wulumuqi rd and peoples square. the ja temple area (hilton, shanghai hotel, jingan hotel, yan an hotel) and huaihai/shan'xi rds (okura, jinjiang) are my favorites. hengshan rd isn't bad either and is on the cheap side.
i agree with you about 10 days being a long stretch for a sh vacation (bj is a different story), but if you have to attend to business, that's a different story of course.

Okura Garden and Jinjiang Tower are both very nice hotels in a great area.
Okura I prefer when I can get the local chinese promo rate of about $100
per night.

Thanks again for all the useful hints.

I'd strongly suggest going to neighbouring towns to visit -- Shanghai, like others have said, is boring after 3-4 days. Suzhou is very close by, and Hangzhou not much further. They're both worth a visit and I'd definintely recommend it. Unless you're really into partying and stuff, there isn't a lot to do in Shanghai after so many days.
