China Travel guide--Hotel Facilities

    Hotels in China range from the luxurious five-star on the eastern seaboard to street guest house with very basic conditions , in remote part of China .As you travel further west to place along  the Silk Road or in Tibet , even 3 and 4 star hotels may no have a hairdryer for example, and complimentary drinking water may not be provide . Mini bars are a moving target, sometimes there and sometimes not, and the level of English spoken will vary.

Laundry: Laundry services are available in most hotels . Outside service are not recommended.

Electric Current: China uses a 220 volt 50 Hz cycle system so electric appliances from countries that use 220/240 will operate without any adopter. Appliances requiring 110 volts will need a transformer to operate. Hotels will not always have these. We recommend that you bring a transformer with you.  Chinese hotels cater for most plug type.

Bathroom: Western Toilets are generally available except in the remote countryside. Toilet paper is usually supplied.
