Grand Hyatt Shanghai – The World’s Tallest Hotel

Nice video john, but the price is DAMN good!! :shock:

I think for a hotel of these class, 100% of their employees must be able to speak English.

Nice looking hotel. Makes me not want to wait for my honeymoon. We got an awesome suite. It is your own little pad with pool, hot tub, steam room, waterfall, it has everything..

Thats a very nice post you have made. Cheers!

Nice view! I am hoping that China also has the "worlds shortest hotel" so you can make a video from there as well :lol: lol

It doesn't expensive compared to John's income, what is the money for? enjoyed your life the internet era is still going on.

This hotel looks fantastic.
It's too expensive for myself but still looks worth it.

How are you finding the air quality in Shanghai? The last time I went to Beijing the pollution ate me alive!

Insane!! Have to go see that.

I'm jealous. I will visit China in the future though. :grin:

OMG...that is really high, especially when you view down to the lobby, i fear i might fall... me got the wai go chin..... :neutral:

For a country that averages just $125 per month per person per month in income has nothing to be proud about offering a suite for $800 per night.
Advancement for the few and privileged is not progress.
You don't see this kind of disparity in Vancouver, do you?

I knew something was expensive in China, at $800 bucks a night I see it's the room you're staying in.

That was an excellent video, John. A little more relaxing than normal. It was a good change. :)

The hotel looks lovely, but I'm still waiting for you to hit up Dubai and stay at the Burj Al Arab. :)

Very nice hotel, I don't know if I would even be willing to drop $800/night on a hotel, but I suppose I don't make $30,000/month writing about my trip to shanghai either. :wink:

Hi John, thanks for showing the hotel it was a great flashback. I had drinks on the top floor 2 years ago and really was fantastic at night to see the city lights and river. Cheers!

Nice hotel...but hey, it's all a right-off for business, right?

Boy that's a really nice hotel :shock:

$800 works out at roughly £400 a night, I don't think that's too bad for a great room with a great view in one of the worlds top hotels. Not that I'd want to spend a whole month there! :grin:

Wow... thats amazing architecture.... unbelievable...!! i guess i have seen this building in some movie and u show me in real ;)

i cant imagine spend 800$ a nigh. better i use that money to purcase 20years of hosting service.. :mrgreen:

John, I think the use of the phrase "how cheap Shanghai is to shop and eat" is not quite correct. You should said "how inexpensive Shanghai is to shop and eat" 8-D

Usually cheap means low quality, inferior, etc.

RMB 800 or US$800 per night?

Anyway, nice hotel though!

I look forward to the video of day changing into night and seeing all the buildings light up!

Any reason to question why some are calling the donation for free for life. I don't understand about chines language

Man these travel logs (trogs?) are the highlight of the year over here. I really feel like heading over there now. And they drive on the same side! Ughh when I lived in Japan all that opposite driving gave me a headache.

It must be SUPER great to travel and speak the language (without having to take years of classes like I did). But I don't get why you could read the relief donation sight but not stuff on the bedroom wall-the writing was maybe too fancy?

You're making it HUGE, John! At $800/night, you sure know how to spend it :)

So I'd only need to make about 300k a year to live there :)

pretty awesome stuff. as your last comment points out, most westerners do not realize how modern parts of china are. if anyone had any reason to question why some are calling the 21st century the China Century, this video highlights why. China is importing all these goods into the U.S., what do people think they are doing with all that cash? they are building a 21st century nation....

China is still a third world country mainly due to the population.
No doubt that it is developing faster..
You will see the real China once you see the inner area.
Coastal cities are advanced.

I've been following your videos ever since you started and still remember that one comment...

"What? You are nearly two years old and have accumulated x number of airline miles?"

Great! Great videos...makes us meet a new world. Really. Keep up the good work.

China is still listed on those organisations where you sponsor a child in a third world nation.
