We're looking at doing some touristy things while enjoying nightlife and restaurants and some shopping.

Also, in our travels we rarely take public transportation and mostly rely on cabs and now uber.

Which general area should I look for hotels in?
You can access the bar and shopping in the Xintiandi area, around the Bund is the view. I will suggest you can switch hotel if no too much luggage.
