    The trains in China between the large cities are quite good and inexpensive. Their are 4 classes: soft seat first class / second class, softsleeper, hardsleeper and hard seat. We traveled through China using high-speed trains. Many hotels can order train tickets for you. If possible book your train 24 hours ahead.

    Hotels in China can be booked directly through the internet. Often without a creditcard if you book through a Chinese provider.
