Ended up cancelling our reservations at #9, and will be staying at LM instead. Due to a bit of business travel lately, will have SPG Gold Status by then, so hoping for an upgrade to a Bund View room. We basically have 3 full days in SH, at least one of which we'll probably do the day-trip on the new fast train to Hangzhou. We may do Suzhou as well, depending on weather and how tired we are by the end of our trip.
I know moondog doesn't like the location, but we'll probably stay at the Westin in Beijing. Thought about the Pen, but staying at a Starwood property will get me that much closer to Plat status. Right now, the St. Regis is still pricing out to be a lot more than the Westin for our dates.
