We were amazed at the personal touch that was extended to us at the hotel, where all the staff seemed to remember our name. The hotel was very clean and the room very spacious. The location was a very short walk to the Forbidden City and Tienanman Square. Also close was the easy to use metro system and the hotel... More

Although the exterior and lobby of Raffles Beijing Hotel are impressive, the room amenities seemed grudging--no razor package, one small vanity package, one small bar of soap, 2 pouches of instant coffee, 2 small bottles of water and one towel each. When we came back from our first day of site-seeing, a dirty coffee cup and an empty take-out cup... More

The hotel is brilliant with a great atmosphere and historical photos of political meetings that have been held there. Staff are helpful and generally proficient in English. Rooms clean and well appointed. We did not eat at the hotel restaurant because we ordered 2 coffee and were shocked at the cost of 135 yuan about $25 dollars. So this discouraged... More

Perfect location for exploring Beijing. We were greeted by an ambassador that was a great source of information. Overall good experience but some difficulty in getting out point across to staff-in English- which is not expected from a hotel of this quality.
