Other Apps decisions
Book on Trip.com or use Amap for hotels?
Use Trip.com for advance planning; switch to Amap for same-day walk-in deals once you arrive.
Do I need a translation app in China?
Yes, install at least Apple Translate or Google Translate with the Chinese offline pack. It's 5 minutes of setup for 100+ daily uses.
Do I need to speak Mandarin to travel in China?
No, you don't need to speak Mandarin — translation apps handle 95% of situations. Learn 5–10 phrases (hello, thank you, numbers) for warmth, not survival.

Will you be in a tier-1 city for most of the trip?
Q4YES
→ Trip.com. Tier-1 coverage (Beijing / Shanghai / Guangzhou / Shenzhen) is the universal baseline — outside it the secondary option often wins.
NO
→ Booking.com. If none of the above apply, Booking.com is the safer runner-up for your case.
