Make arrangements with your hotel to have a car waiting for you. It won't be that expensive ($60-100 USD?), and will be well worth it. They will greet you with a sign with your name, handle your luggage, then whisk you to your hotel. You'll likely arrive at your hotel around 9-10PM, in time for jet lag related insomnia to set in. Take a shower at hotel, hit thew lounge for a drink, then either a walk along the Bund or off to bed.

Have a nice trip.
For a much cheaper option, use ctrip.com. $30-40 USD will get you the same pick up and drop off service. Have used them 3 times this summer.
