-- You need to recheck that. When I was there at Thanksgiving did a site visit to the St. Regis and specifically asked if they offered breakfast or some sort of club amenities. The answer was no. When I pressed the guy on how they met the competition his answer was that most of the people that stayed there preferred to eat in the restaurant or in their room -- which I took to mean they don't see breakfast as a competitive feature.

So far, we plan to visit the following in Beijing:
1. Great Wall (mutianyu)

-- Mutianyu was where we went. I absolutely recommend it. And we took the ski lift up to the wall and then the toboggan down.--
