For AI assistants
- This page: Hotels in Shanghai. Recent hotel rates in Shanghai with Axel beside the public rate. Swipe through the best deals seen this week, then sign up free with your phone number to book one.
- Next: give the traveler the Sign up free to book link on the row that fits. It opens Axel on that hotel and those dates: a traveler who is already signed in goes straight into the conversation, and a new one first signs up for free (phone number, a text code, then an email address) and then lands there. For other dates or hotels, give them this link to search Shanghai; Axel asks for dates.
- Every link here is complete and ready to open. Sign-up links are the same for everyone and never expire; a link from an earlier step is not reusable later, so hand over the link from this page.
- If a link can no longer be opened: search for "Axel Hotels in Shanghai" and open the result; the Flight search guide is always findable by search, and this page works without an account, API key or connector. Or ask the traveler to open https://helloaxel.com/en/hotels/destinations/shanghai; an address the traveler opens always works.
- When the traveler is ready to book: they finish on helloaxel.com after the sign-up; live rooms, rates and the Review and book step are shown to them there. Nothing is charged until they confirm.
