Reviews and Ratings
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel with its spacious rooms offering a nice city view, friendly service, ideal location for easy access to the airport terminal, and good dining options. However, the rooms felt a bit dated compared to newer hotels, and the dining experience could be further improved.
The hotel is conveniently located above a shopping mall with easy access to transportation. The rooms are spacious but starting to show their age compared to the lobby. Despite the room change for a bathtub, the overall experience would merit a 5-star rating.
Staying at this hotel was a luxurious and comfortable experience with large, well-equipped rooms. The modern, clean, and spacious setting, especially the bathroom with a Toto Washlet, made my stay truly relaxing. The service was outstanding, particularly thanks to the friendly and helpful Mr Taylor Dong. The location, while not ideal for immediate access to bars and restaurants, was a welcome retreat after a busy day of sightseeing. The dining options were extensive and delicious, providing a perfect conclusion to my trip. The facilities added to the overall experience, making it a delightful stay.
The hotel offers spacious rooms that have a bit of an old-fashioned feel but are well-equipped with modern facilities and a wide range of toiletries. The service is top-notch with professional and friendly staff, especially at the reception. The location is stunning, with a fabulous staircase and cozy coffee shop/bar area. The dining options are varied, accommodating various cultures, and the facilities are first class.
The hotel was fantastic with clean, comfortable rooms and outstanding service from dedicated staff. The location was central with easy access to shopping centers, and the dining experience was authentic. The facilities provided were top-notch, enhancing the overall stay.
Staying in a horizon club room on the top floors was a quiet, comfortable, and well-presented experience. The lovely and spacious rooms offered many extras, although the price may not represent the best value for money. The service was exceptional with friendly, warm, and efficient staff providing excellent amenities like airport transfer service and room facilities. The location, although not ideal for exploring bars and restaurants on foot, is convenient to subway lines and a large underground mall complex. The dining experience at the Café boasted a huge array of delicious options, making it a perfect end to a visit to Beijing. The facilities were top-notch, offering first-class amenities for a luxurious stay.
My stay on the ninth floor offered an amazing view, but the rooms were run down and service fell short compared to other Shangri-La locations. However, the spacious king bed and huge televisions were a plus despite the connecting factor.
The hotel's location is superb situated above a shopping mall with immediate access to two subway lines, making it very convenient for travelers exploring Beijing. The rooms were exceptional, fully equipped with a kitchen and living room, though the lack of a bathtub required us to change rooms. The dining options were varied and catered to guests from different countries, but the prices may not fully justify the experience.
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant. The rooms were spacious and well-equipped, including a kitchen with all necessary amenities. However, they were on the smaller side. The hotel's top 3 floors offer Business room-like accommodations with access to the Business lounge, which was a nice touch. The bathroom was lovely, though.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were huge and let in plenty of natural light, offering a comfortable and spacious living area. The service was impeccable, with attentive and courteous staff. The location was superb, above a shopping mall with easy access to subway lines. The dining experience was great but a bit on the expensive side. Overall, a fantastic place to stay.
My stay was in a spacious and elegant 2-bedroom apartment in the north tower, with access to the executive facilities, which I highly recommend. The rooms were what you would expect from a Shangri-La, offering a comfortable and modern experience. Although the dining experience had some delays, the variety and quality were very good. The service provided by staff members like Desmond and Hovey was exceptionally fine and caring, going above and beyond to assist us throughout our stay. The location within the Embassy District of Beijing was simply breathtaking, offering easy foot access to a shopping mall and the subway station, making it convenient to explore nearby attractions like the Forbidden City and Beihai Park.
I had access to the executive facilities which I would highly recommend. The rooms were very well equipped, with a good shower, comfortable bed, and fast WiFi, although a bit dated given the hotel's age.
I loved staying at this hotel! The location was superb, with easy access to a nearby shopping mall and international brand lounges. The rooms were cozy and well-equipped. The service, though some familiar faces were missing, was generally helpful, offering various conveniences like room service and car hire. The dining experience was good, and the facilities were top-notch.
The hotel is housed in one of the oldest buildings in the whole China World Complex, offering spacious and well-equipped rooms on the top 3 floors. The service is highlighted by the helpful staff, especially Mr Taylor Dong, who went out of his way to assist my mother. The location is walking distance to shops, restaurants, and the subway system, making it convenient for exploring Beijing. The dining options cater to various cultures but could offer more Beijing signature dishes. Overall, a pleasant stay with friendly service and a great location.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of highs and lows. The rooms, though a bit dated, were clean and spacious with great welcome amenities and surprises during turndown service, making them very comfortable and quiet. The service was exceptional, particularly Preston, a welcoming and helpful staff member who went above and beyond to arrange my visit to the Great Wall in the hotel's BMW limousine. The location was convenient, close to the metro, restaurants, and shopping areas, making it a great spot to unwind after a day of sightseeing. The dining options were extensive with a diverse range of Western and Chinese food, offering a big variety of items. Overall, the facilities were excellent, enhancing my stay with their quality offerings.
