I'd look at a current subway map and try to find a hotel that's in a convenient location for your conference. New subway lines keep opening, so make sure you're looking at up-to-date information.
I will be visiting some friends who work near the Jinke Rd. station. I'll also be visiting Shanghai Disney for 2 days while I'm there. I need to get to line 11 for that as I understand it.

While I am part of Hyatt Gold Passport, it's not one of the primary programs I use. I have only about 6500 points and no status with them. I have Gold status in Hilton and Starwood.
