We stayed at the China World hotel in Beijing for 9 days. The hotel is run by the Shangri-La chain, and it is up to their typical excellent standards. The public areas are opulent. The room was good sized and had very good amenities, but it was not as large or opulent as a room we had on the same... more

I loved this hotel. The service was exceptional while being very humble. All my request were met and exceeded. The lobby is rich, without being over the top. I especially enjoyed the live music each night in the lobby. I did manage to try a few of the restaurants. The Chinese restaurant is very tradititional. I loved the Mediteranian restaurant.... more

Stayed here before the Olympics near the end of July/start of August and had a pretty good experience. They were renovating things and adding some features to the hotel for the Olympics. In addition, we saw tons of Olympic staff, as well as being able to witness a security practice led by the Beijing police. More on that later, as... more

The China World Hotel is a well run, well maintained and very well located business hotel in the Chaoyang district of Beijing. I had arranged an airport transfer through the hotel, and was pleasantly surprised to see a hotel representative waiting for me at the end of the jetway after the long flight from the US. She walked with me... more

Stayed here for 3 nights with Viking River Cruises. Best hotel of the tour! The Monday night seafood buffet redefined all concepts of buffet! (Don't know cost as it was paid for by tour). Breakfast was great...don't miss the homemade yoghurt. This hotel is getting 4 "stars" on this site, but the St. Regis in Shanghai is getting 5...this hotel... more

I absolutely loved this hotel. Stayed here for a week on business recently and found this to be an excellent business hotel. The gym is one of the finest I've ever encountered in a hotel, the rooms are well-equipped and nicely designed. I loved the soft modern bed after a rock slab in Hong Kong. The staff are all incredibly... more

The hotel is nice and comfortable, but is quite over priced for what it is as there are other choices nearby. We ate at the hotel's Italian restaurant. The menu looked attractive. But the taste was not what it claimed for. The wine selection was impressive. It seemed there were more locals trying to impress other locals here. The evening... more

This hotel is definitely luxurious but it‘s to be expected for the steep prices. Great beds, soft sheets, towel placed on the floor by your bed with soft slippers. Huge bathroom has both a deep tub and powerful shower. The rooms are quiet and the street noise can’t be heard. Helpful tip: If you order a wake up call, they... more

When I stayed at the China World Hotel 10 years ago it was not a Shangri-La, which it now is. This time I stayed in a suit room which was absolutely super. The VIP limousine service from the airport was very efficient and welcoming. The gym and pool really nice, and the massage I took in the spa in the... more
