The Peninsula Palace - Beijing is a super-luxury hotel in
the heart of the city. Rooms are beautifully decorated and
furnished - but for me, they are a slight disappointment.
This is, after all, China - but the decor in the guest-rooms
just doesn't feel Chinese. The Peninsula Palace a fabulous
hotel for location, comfort and luxury - and the service is
superb. I just wish those rooms were a tad more oriental!

The Banyan Tree - Lijiang is a fabulous place to stay.
This glorious cluster of villas looks and feels more like an
ancient temple than a hotel - albeit a very opulent, luxurious
temple! Every villa faces the sacred Jade Dragon Snow
Mountain - commanding THE most spectacular views. And
every villa has its own heated pool. Lijiang is often referred
to as the Venice of the Orient because of the many bridges
and canals that lace through the maze of cobbled streets.
This historic town is a World Heritage.
