Key notes

Atour People Sq Nanjing Rd (SH) — not accepting bookings for 11–14 Oct. Not sold out; inventory just not on sale yet. People Sq alternates: Meta Tree A$86/nt, Jinglai A$115/nt.
Treasury (People's Sq) — AU$472 / A$157/nt; “Our last 1!” flag is on the AU$149 free-cancellation room. Treasury = 宝御 Bao-yu Hotel, 678 Hankou Rd (opened 2024) — a different property from Google's “Bund Puyan”; don't confuse them.
The New Hotel (HZ) — live AU$824 / A$274/nt vs the A$146 from-price in your PDF: the biggest surprise of the pass. Friendship Hotel (A$116/nt) is the value swap.
Qifeng Examination Hall (NJ) — AU$350 / A$175/nt incl. breakfast, free cancellation, 36% off rack — under your A$200–250 allowance.
Teaser prices confirmed misleading: Youli A$41→111, Zunjing A$26→105, Manxin Tiananmen A$41→145, Crystal Orange A$43→165. Budget on live numbers only.
Free cancellation on most pick-set rates — book now to lock inventory, re-book if the daily watch spots a drop, then cancel the dearer one.
Currency — prices tracked in RM (Malaysian Ringgit). Watcher fetches Trip.com with curr=MYR; static rows converted from AUD at RBA rate.
Daily price watch running — booked/candidate hotels checked hourly 7am–11pm AEST incl. Bei Boutique (Muar, unpaid until 28 Sep); a Telegram alert fires on ≥5% moves or scarcity changes.
