When you first see the hotel you cannot help but recognize this is a landmark hotel. When you enter it you are dazzled by the empire French marble interior. The fantastic atrium goes all the way up and all floors overlook it (hopefully you are not afraid of heights!). The rooms are fantastic. Our deluxe (the smallest) was 450 sq... More

A very lovely hotel in a fantastic location in Beijing. It is a walking Distance to Wangfujing street, some Hutong Alleys, the Forbidden City, and Tiananmen Square. The subway is also right next to the hotel. I was able to use the subway or taxi cabs to tour the city. I liked the fact that it was not right on... More

Having to pay for swim caps to use pool That breakfast was not only notincluded, but was an extremely expensive extra. Male staff in the driveway (not the doormen) were uncouth No guaranteed wireless Pool water a bit cold Not enough movie channels

Highly recommend the family room: 2 connecting rooms. One room has 2 queens, the other room has a living room and separate room with a king. It fit our family of five quite well. The location is great and near the Forbidden City. Save some money and hire your own private car and driver to go see the sites instead... More

What a place!!! Grand is the word - from the facade with its turrets and palace like look, to the location and to the rooms. It was absolutely breath-taking. We stayed on the club floor and had booked a noble grand deluxe room - and it was beautiful. We were up on the 16th floor and we could see the... More

This is truly a 5 star experience. The service is impeccable. Our room was stunning - quite ornate yet it wasn't tacky. Make sure you get the name of your destination written down for the taxis as we had a lot of confusion about where we were going to.

The hotel's located is ideal - across the street in one direction pedestrian street to just walk around or go to the Forbidden City, the other direction - metro station. Upon entering the hotel, you find yourself in a huge lobby is very nice decorated. The room is very large and too much luxury. Good spa with 25 meter pool,... More

I’d rate this hotel a 3+. While the rooms are quite comfortable and the hotel overall is well kept up, the décor is very “Versailles” (think late 17th century/early 18th century French – lots of gold, marble, high ceilings, big chandeliers, lots of wainscoting and mirrors, etc.) and there were a couple of things that were a little off. Some... More

Yes the foyer is OTT and very grand but it's a case of first impressions. More importantly the hotel is spotless, the beds luxurious and very little noise from passing traffic and late night guests - a must in my view. Rooms are of.a good size with the twins being larger than doubles; bathrooms are of a reasonable size with... More
