First cab off the rank - WOO HOO.
Ok Billy only stays in 2 hotels in Shanghai:
1. Ramada Plaza in Nanjing Lu - I stay here only if I am attending any trade shows at the New Shanghai Exhibition Centre in Pudong - it is a simple 5 minute walk down Nanjing Lu to get subway to Pudong.
2. All other times I stay at Hua Ting Hotel and Towers - a bit aged now but still 5 star - I get 'mates rates' here so this is why I stay here.
BOTH TOTALLY GIRL FRIENDLY.
I have previously been rejected with a girl post 11pm at Sofitel Hyland in Nanjing Lu - so avoid that like the plague.
Happy hunting guys - keep the Shanghai 'girl-friendly hotel' reports coming - it is a great asset to all.
I had no problem at the Westin Bund Center. Also no problem at the Supreme Tower in Pudong.
The Joyage chinese business hotels are very definitely girl friendly.
thanks for the hotel thread.
any recommendations for a chinese-brand 4/5-star, either pudong or puxi (near hilton?) that has:
- in room high-speed internet, either free or daily charge
- decent breakfast (chinese is fine, don't need psuedo-western).
- of course, girl-friendly.
Brand new budget hotel, rooms immaculate, from 157 rmb, free internet. (wired) Rooms bookable on internet. (Chinese website). Very GF. I checked in with two lady friends carrying my baggage, the porter brought a third toothbrush to the room. Lady visitor came and went at all times of the night.
Display cabinet at reception is filled with condoms.
No restaurant, but a good 24 hour restaurant with English menu directly across the street.

GF but if shy, simply walk into the bar left of entrance, at rear of bar is back
passage to lifts.

Thanks so much for opening this thread jackson.
I am still searching a hotel in shanghai which is central located (think near peoples sqaure is a good choice? ) and not too pricy, cause it will be not my compay who is paying. Gf of course. So does anybody knows something about "Magnificant International Plaza" or "Bailemen" who seems both arround 400 rmb/night?
Would apreciate every suggestion in this price kategory.
Thanks a lot.
Have been at Interconti Pudong in '05/'06 and '07 and prived to be GF when I took back the KTV girls for at about midninght/1a.m.
They left at different times at night or early in the morning and did not get any trouble or check.
Have had a friend getting 2 outcall girls at 8pm and meeting them in the lobby with no problem going together to the room.
The spa is legitimate and the girl lifts a huge towel when you lay down or get up, so their view is barred. This adds to the fact they leave the room when you undress or dress.
So I did not feel like trying for something.
This is GF too also if you bring your own even at a later hour at night or early morning and you are not bothered by the walk of shame since you cannot go un-noticed to the lifts.
I think I spotted a few freelancers in the lobby bar but I am not interested to those.
Outside of the hotel you can be easily approached by some smiling ladies (later 30's, 5 in look).
Just had a laugh with one of them as I made clear to her I knew the game she was for and was not interested to. Do not know then if they are same of those "bar scam" or just freelancers operating outside the hotel.
Making a right out of the hotel there is soon a street to the left with a series of night bars. Had a beer in a couple of them. Fairly expensive for local standards, but affordable for foreigners as still cheaper than in Europe. Did not see any WG or BG, so wondering if they ar just drinking holes.
Another bar attracted my attention, this time making a right after having walked a bit right of the hotel. I do not know if that is the old Hardrock Cafè (could well have been by its furniture), but was full of expats, some local girls, but no sign of them approaching.
So either they are "civilian" girls or action is very discreet.
If someone knows more and can put some more light/infos on those two areas nearby Portman that will certain help the punter.
I think you are talking about the infamous Tongren Lu Bar street which is a string of bars to the right of the Portman Ritz Carlton and then left on Tongren Lu. Yes, the girls are available. If you turn to the right you are at Malone's where there are some girls available. There are somemps in the vicinity.[QUOTE=Bionicman]This is GF too also if you bring your own even at a later hour at night or early morning and you are not bothered by the walk of shame since you cannot go un-noticed to the lifts.

Hi,
I will be staying at the St.Regis in Pudong.
Any ideas about their health center? CAn you get extras in a massage? (HJ, BJ or FS?).
If not any Saunas near (like walking distance?) It is my first time there and don't know the area.
Is the hotel girl friendly? Activities in the bar?
Thanks for the help. I will report upon return.
Salvo Hotel is 5* and conveniently located close to the Bund and People's Square. You can get deals at around 600 RMB on eLong (Chinese Expedia partner), which is a real Bargain. Other than that, the Bund Hotel, not far from Salvo on Guandong Lu lists on eLong at around 600 RMB and is amazing value for a very nice 4*.
New Harbour serviced apartments are nice, you get a kind of "suite": sitting room, bedroom and a kitchenette for around 550 RMB incl. Breakfast. On Yongsou Lu, very close to the Bund and People's square too. My favourite.
All of the above you can check on Tripadvisor, and are guaranteed girl-friendly.
Further down the scale and closer to People's Square is Charms Hotel, a 3* listing for 400+. If on a tight budget, try Motel 168. There's one very close to People's Square, on the street with all the music instrument shops (can't remember the name, is it Zhejiang Lu? Can someone help here?)
I guess I have carpet-bombed the area.... Glad to be of help.

While in Shanghai I have stayed at the Grand Hyatt and the JW Marroitt - both are girl friendly. In fact both have ladies in their bars that can be picked up.

Most of Shanghai hotels are GF and should you walk back at any time with a girl in your hotel room, security will 95% of the time turn their back.
Girl alone can walk into hotel without being asked any question should it be prior 10.30 - 11.00.
Past this time, you might have to pick her up in the lobby without or with registration at the front office.
As mentioned in Shanghai thread, the girl dress might do some difference.
Some years ago, not many Chinese would have stayed in a 4 or 5* hotel and it was more difficult to bring a girl. Today, security can not distinguish guests from "working" girls and therefore do not implement the scrutiny that they should in order to avoid confrontation. (wait for the Olympic period; it might change).

Nicosanx we do appreciate your input - as we appreciate input from all sources.
BUT
Partiucularly in this thread - might I suggest we all be 'HOTEL SPECIFIC'.
It would be better if contributors listed hotels as they actually STAY in them.
For example - last week I stayed in ABC Hotel in Pudong - totally girl friendly as I walked in at 01.30 in morning with a sluttily dressed w.h.o.r.e underarm and nobody batted an eyelid.
General broad brush statements like yours COULD be misleading to visitors.
I hope I do not sound like a teacher or sound derogatory to your posting - but as I pointed out in the 2nd post in this thread I was once 'stopped' at elevator in Sofitel Hyland in Nanjing Lu with a harlot in tow at about midnight one night.
This makes this hotel 'UN-GIRL-FRIENDLY' - there are many other hotels where you can be sure - just check this thread for definitive information on a 'hotel by hotel' basis.
