We rested from January 27 to February 5, the rest began from Beijing, and then to about. Hainan. The hotel in Beijing was Kempinski Hotel Beijing Lufthansa Center 5*. The hotel is worth it. Very chic, everything is on the level and cleaning in the room and service in the restaurant. There are no nitpicks about the hotel, everything is super, they would improve their breakfasts a little, or rather not fry everything like that, and so you can find a thread to eat for breakfast. And so the hotel is all five, this is with regard to the hotel in Beijing, then we flew on local airlines to about. . Hainan, that's where it all started. How I liked Beijing and much of it was striking in its beauty and what a contrast went at the local airport, but continued at the resort of the island. You begin to understand why lighters are taken away at the airport, the Chinese do not understand ANYTHING when you tell them, the plane is landing, they walk around the plane, they sit cutting cards and sneezing, they wanted what the stewardess tells them. We experienced this madhouse, having arrived in Hainan, we were accommodated in Baohong Hotel Sanya 5 *, Dadonghai. This is where the madhouse began, at the hotel the windows overlook only two views - this is to the street, where the movement and beeping of cars did not stop, and to the Chinese hostel, where you would not want to live either, the rats run there just horribly. We got a view of the street, but it was nonsense when it turned out that our neighbors were Chinese. We got the number 8319, it turned out to be a family one and we were separated from the neighbors by a cardboard partition and a door, the audibility was such that until the morning it seemed to me that they live with us, they all smoke and almost everywhere they wanted, so our room was smoky so I also couldn't sleep until morning. There was no point in changing, as the guide from the Southern Cross said, since the other view was on the hostel, where it was even worse, as I was told. Okay, we decided not to change anything and went to breakfast, and then my surprise was just jubilant, there was NOTHING to eat, at 9.30 already at breakfast in building 1, as mom passed and after the Chinese there was a rolling ball, although there was still a whole hour before breakfast ended, he from 6.30 to 10.30. I’ll explain why, it turned out that in January in February this is the Chinese New Year and they all flock to Hainan to relax with their families and buses, so our hotel was packed with them, and they get up early and therefore the food disappears just like lightning. I will say even more, the Chinese are like locusts sweeping away everything. Although there is not much food in the restaurant, well, the choice did not shine, and some things were only for the Chinese, well, the smell from them was such that foreigners, that is, Russians, did not even come there. Further hungry, but still thirsty for rest, we moved to the beach. The beach from Baohong was with separate sun loungers, but there were a lot of Chinese there, in my opinion they seemed somehow vile, they were sitting spitting, they were shitting, without slaps it was even disgusting to stand on the sand. Having sunbathed, we decided it was better to score excursions all the time and didn’t go to the beach anymore, one day was enough. As we were later told that the Chinese are taught from childhood not to keep dirt in themselves, they spit, spit right on the sidewalk, they even saw a shitting boy on the sidewalk and this is normal for China, as we were told. Although it was infuriating, but if you ignore it, you can somehow still walk through the streets, another fact pissed me off, this movement, as it turned out, no one followed the rules there to cross the road and what’s on the pedestrian, I was already covered with perspiration, because there no one NEVER lets anyone through, and drivers don’t give a shit that you follow the rules, they don’t follow them at all !! ! There, even on the sidewalk, they piss at you so that you give way to him, you see, or he is in a hurry and it takes him a long time to go along the road when so much sidewalk disappears. And so everyone goes there and mopeds and sometimes cars and everyone beeps, the brain explodes after half an hour. The conclusion for me was one Chinese for me turned out to be a crazy and even vile nation, flying away, I was left with a mixed feeling that such a territory should be littered, but at the same time something was above all. Bottom line: the hotel itself is so-so, no view, no silence, even no pool. The restaurant could cook more, do not grind the fruit, and the choice, although small, is at least sufficient for all residents, and not just for the Chinese. The territory of the hotel, I would say no, the view is either on the road with crazy traffic, or the Chinese op in the morning, the choice is yours)))) The beach is good, but if the Chinese were smaller, it would be cleaner, and there are no complaints about the beach. As for food, we didn’t go to the restaurant at all, but noticed the Italian restaurant “Kazamia”, there was freshly brewed coffee and ravioli mmmm, then we went to the “Slavyanka” there and borscht and hodgepodge. We went to Chinese street cafes and “Peking Duck”, I’ll say that it didn’t work out, I’ll explain why, in the first, if you don’t know how to bargain, they will fool you a hundred pounds, and the stench from the street interrupted your appetite, and in the second, even though it was called a restaurant “Peking duck”, but the cook is there, oh, I won’t spoil your appetite. Okay, to sum up everything - the spitting, spitting and shitting Chinese didn’t impress me this time, secondly they don’t respect anyone, even each other, and you tourists, respectively, too. Also buy food and fruits in a supermarket, it will be cheaper for you and less nerves, after talking with a local merchant, my bruise still does not go away. So if you want to be calm, that you won’t be fooled and thrown with rotten fruit, then buy in the store everything is fixed there and you will choose everything you need YOURSELF !! ! My husband and I don’t have a foot in Hainan anymore, but Beijing is worth a visit, it impressed me more, maybe because the Chinese are fined there for spitting and for violations on the road, so they are more intelligent, although the city itself is very beautiful, but I think there will still be there in the spring prettier.
