A Meet and Greet person from the airport to hotel

Hi,

I saw through some old posts that someone had arranged for someone to pick them up at the departure lounge (or when they arrive) with a

sign with their name on it and then they take them

to their hotel.

I am travelling early July into Beijing by myself with a young child and am a bit worried about getting to the hotel safely.

Can anyone recommend someone to pick us up like this and how much would it cost approx?

Thanks, Kitty

Hi Kitty,

Beijing is safe.

The cheapest way is taking by airport shuttle bus (RMB 16) or express subway (RMB 25) to Beijing City and then take by taxi (RMB 10/3km) to hotel. another way is take by taxi at airport to hotel directly.

You contact your hotel in Beijing and arrange for them to send someone to pick you up from the airport.

However, this is really only necessary in those countries without metered taxis / airport transport. In Beijing, you just need to get into a taxi, show them the Chinese address, and they will take you to your hotel. Very easy.

Thanks both you guys for your help. Probably a stupid question but where do I get a printout

with the chinese characters of the hotel I want to

go to?

Thanks again,

Kitty

Go to your hotel website. Find the page with the address and possibly a map then change language (usually at the top of the page) to chinese (涓枃)

Otherwise tell us which hotel and we can find it for you. It is also a good idea to have the hotel phone number. There are so many hotels in Beijing that sometimes rivers do not know a particular one, then they just call the hotel for direction.

If your phone works in China actually, no need to print, just call the hotel and pass the phone to the driver.

Ah.. Huh. Thank you so much oh Wise One
