Hi Annabelle
Although I’m a bit late, I’m getting back to my list of emails! Here’s some more feedback for you:
– Beijing guide and driver both very nice with a good and welcome sense of humor!
– drivers in Xi’An and Shanghai were less warm
– intersting guide in Xi’An
– the food tour was really nice although very filling!
– the bicycle tour was really great, with our young French guide and the fact that there was only the 3 of us!
There’s a qualification about the Pusu Zen: there was no heating in our initial rooms – we were given smaller rooms on a higher floor – the building isolation was bad so the rooms we had, right under the roof, weren’t adapted to the winter weather – the hotel was also doing some renovation so we had to eat a basic breakfast in the entrance hallway…
The Kapok was alright although it also lacked a better isolation – it was in a good location although the neighborhood wasn’t very lively.
The Fraser in Shanghai was very good – well located between the French concession, Xintiandi and the Bund – a hotel te recommend.
Overall we’re very satisfied with your help and your suggestions.
Thank you, we wish you well.
