Frommer's Review
Presidential, run by CITS, has five ships currently operating on the Yangzi, imaginatively named MV1, MV3, and so on. The Yangzi Paradise (aka MV6) is built to China's four-star standard, and its cabins aren't as spacious as those of Viking and Orient Royal, but the ship is attractively appointed and well-staffed with an English-speaking crew. While the Yellow Crane lacks the slick promotion of Victoria and Orient Royal, the ship itself serves better food, is more luxurious than Victoria's ships, and very nearly meets the five-star standard of the East King and East Queen. Standard rooms are comparable in size and furnishing to those in Victoria Cruises' fleet.
The Yellow Crane travels between Chongqing and Yichang (4 days downriver, 5 days upriver). CITS in Wuhan and Chongqing usually offer great savings on these tours.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
