King Courtyard view which seems fine for my liking.
Came in at around CNY5267 or £565 (maybe £130 a night).

Few other options further out ranging from £37 a night upwards.
Pretty much 3x the Hualuxe for the Regent on the Bund. Not worth it in my opinion.

Did throw in some bonus points that were offered.
£9 for 5k points seems to be a no brainer to me. Without doing the maths, far cheaper than buying at a 100% bonus?
Suggest doing some research, I don't have first hand experience but recent reviews (there don't seem to be that many in English to start with) seem to refer to maintenance and cleanliness issues.
