This is an excellent, luxury hotel with impeccable appointments and service. Yes, it is expensive, but I did not feel that it is overpriced. The hotel does not attract the tonier set of the Grand Hyatt, for example, and is not as trendy, which was fine with me. I was very comfortable here. One caveat: the restaurants in the hotel,... more

We spent 5 nights at the Grand Hotel on the last leg of our tour. This was the oldest of all the hotels in China that we stayed in but it was quite comfortable. The Atrium is lovely, however, at night there is often musical entertainment and the noise filters through to the rooms. Our room faced onto the main... more

We liked the hotel's proximity to the Forbidden City and Wangfujing. The rooms are fine and the breakfast wonderful but for the price I much prefered the Novotel Peace hotel a couple of blocks away. more

We stayed in the Grand Hotel on the final leg of our honeymoon. We arrived on 2nd October amid the national holiday. Beijing was buzzing, the streets were packed but inside our hotel was dead. Reception left a lot to be desired. Our room was nice and comfortable. Lovely big comfortable bed and lovely bathroom with seperate shower and bath.... more

Just returned from a China holiday. We stayed at the Grand Hotel Beijing and found the hotel to be perfectly located to all the areas we wanted to visit in the city. We had a room overlooking the inner atrium which had been renovated and was lovely. Bathroom was good and clean. I spent my 40th birthday here and a... more

The Grand Hotel Beijing is very well located with views of the Forbidden City and 1 block away from a buzzing shopping street. On top of that they have a really nice pool & sauna and spa that noone seems to use but it is really nice to go back to after a day of sightseeing. The staff at the... more

The bedrooms were furnished with lovely old Chinese furniture and some had a view to the roofs of the Forbidden City The restaurants were good in the hotel and there was live piano and a string quartet playing delightfully in the atrium over dinner time . Ti Chi (Sp?) could be watched and practised in the atrium about breakfast time.The... more

Fortunately we were not put off by some of your reviewers. Our travel agent Audley Travel insisted they were wrong. What we found was a beautiful hotel with great restaurants (we tried three). So much space to relax in from secluded tea rooms to an enormous atrium. Discreet music every evening, great drinks and service matching the best. We even... more

This hotel is in a fantastic location. The room is well appointed, and on par with most other 5 star places. However, when I stayed in early April, they have no air-conditioning turned on! The room gets quite warm (despite it being quite chilly outside), and the best solution they have is to open the windows!!! This is pretty poor... more
