Thanks.

First of all, you are going to LOVE the St. Regis Hotel there, it rivals the Peninsula - it's a beautiful property. They have car hires (which are oddly enough, Chinese-made Audi A6s). The St. Regis is right next to a couple of the markets and you can walk there - however if you are going to go the the Great Wall (I went to Badaling), you are going to have to have a car hire.

Just in case the driver asks to take you to a hospital with "special herbs" decline. You can e-mail the hotel directly via the *wood website.

Happy travels.
