Reference for answering the questions 1. The hotel star-rating system ranks hotels according to facilities, scale, service quality and management. The star-rated hotels in China are approved by the National Tourism Administration after assessment. Normally, they provide better facilities and service than non-rated ones. In China, accommodations can be rated as one, two, three, four or five stars.
请在此输入您的标题 2. There are three "Platinum 5-Star" hotels in China, and they are Beijing's China Grand Hotel, Shanghai's Portman Ritz-Carlton, and the Garden Hotel in Guangzhou. 3. There are quite a few high-end hotels in my city, like the InterContinental, Westin, Sheraton, Ritz-Carlton, Mandarin Oriental, etc.
4. Boutique Hotels emphasize individuality. Successful ones always have three characteristics, namely, an independent spirit, personality traits and cultural heritage. And this kind of accommodation boasts both the rich flavor of local culture and a unique historical memory of it. When staying in such accommodations, guests can have unparalleled enjoyment lacking in the star-rated hotels.

Cultural Differences Listen and enrich your knowledge Art of Speaking Your inner feelings should be expressed in overt speech. Your speech should be cordial, friendly, sincere, rich, modest, gentle, humorous, expressive, and well-tailored to the tastes of your guests. People in the West like to talk about the weather, sports, news, traveling, interests, and hobbies. You should always remember to begin a conversation with impersonal subjects. Politics may become a topic in a conversation, as many Westerners stay current about political issues. Private things are taboo. All taboos must be avoided at all times, on all occasions.
