I must add my comments to anyone thinking of staying at the Intercontinental - DON'T. The service is of a level more akin to a Chinese operated hotel in China, than an international hotel in China. I'm exaggerating but not by much...
Some models of Toyota in Asia are actually considered luxury models, such as Alphard, Crown and Landcruiser. I think the APV in question here should be the Alphard which is certainly nice enough.

Agreed about the Intercontinental. Used to be one of my favorite but stop going there since 2 years ago.
