We stayed here after the Olympic rush for pleasure and found the Ritz Carlton to be very comfortable. The service is very professional--we were constantly greeted and asked if we needed anything. Although the decor is very traditional Victorian the hotel is actually almost brand new--rooms are quite spacious, and the usual high end comfort items are here (towels, cosmetics,... more

Stayed here for 8 nights in June during a business trip to China. It was all around a fantastic experience! The hotel is relatively new (opened at the end of 2007?) and the cab driver had a hard time finding it. However, if you mention XinGuang tiandi (or in English shinkong-place), which is the high-end shopping complex nearby, they should... more

The main reason we booked the Ritz Carlton was because we were seduced by photos of the decor... which does not try to be too obviously Chinese. Instead, the designers have opted to go with touches of Chinoiserie, which make is very refined and elegant. We were certainly not disappointed and there were actually few things to fault about the... more

I stayed here while covering the Olympic games. Although this Ritz isn't as elegant as others I've visited, the staff is amazing! I was blown away by the Chinese hospitality. It eceeded my expectations in every way. The restaurant offers many choices and many different types of cuisine. The exercise room was well equipped. The property is very nice and... more

Stayed during the opening weekend of the Olympics, so perhaps some allowances should be made for a full hotel and an excitable clientele. But at $850 a night, I am not so sure. The hotel is in the middle of what? A faceless, souleless zone of high rises and high-end shops peddling international branded items at super inflated prices. No... more

We mirror the same general "luxurious hotel, professional staff" comments as other reviews: - TRUE - most taxi's will not know where the hotel is if you simply say "Ritz Carlton" ... recommend you print out the name & address in Chinese before you go to get from airport to hotel, then get the hotel business card for later taxi... more

I was initially booked in elsewhere (Raffles Beijing) but it sounded like it was trading on its reputation so i did some homework on here and thanks to a detailed review by somebody who sounds as picky as me i chose the ritz carlton. note there are two in beijing. this is the newer one, opened in q4 2007 or... more

I had to attend a conference at the last minute. The conference was being held in the hotel itslef so i booked a room for two nights. I currently live in Singapore and am originally from India. Having experienced hotels in both these countries and other countries, this was by far my best experience. The staff were excellant and courteous.... more

Thr Ritz Carlton Beijing at China Central Place is fantastic. Service was absolutely stellar. We live in Beijing and often go for weekends "away" in the city. This is now our favorite spot and highly recommend it for anyone who likes a luxury hotel with personalized service and a terrific location. Can't say enough great things about this Ritz. more
