Luxury Hotels in Beijing

This was my partner and my first time vacationing in Miyun, and also our first stay at the Hylla Hotel. The entire trip far exceeded our expectations; it was truly wonderful! I have to specially commend our dedicated concierge, Golden Key Ethan. Before we even arrived, he proactively added us on WeChat to connect, showing incredible thoughtfulness and attention to detail. Knowing we wanted to relax and recuperate, he took the initiative to pre-book Ayurvedic treatments and singing bowl sessions for us at the wellness center. He also thoroughly explained all of the hotel's unique offerings, such as the hillside hot springs, the gymnasium, and the mountain hiking trails, clearly outlining the duration of each activity and any booking注意事项 (important notes). We didn't have to worry about a thing. Throughout our stay, he was incredibly responsive, answering any small questions we had almost instantly. He's reliable, patient, and warm. I later learned he's a professional 'Golden Key' concierge, and his professionalism was evident—it’s rare to find such a dedicated and caring service person. The hotel itself is also outstanding. Tucked away on the hillside, the air is fresh and quiet, with negative oxygen ions reaching 9000! The 12 forest hot springs create an amazing ambiance, the rooms are clean and comfortable, and the breakfast spread is incredibly rich, far surpassing the quality of a five-star hotel in the city. There’s also a huge kids’ play area, with facilities that cater to both adult relaxation and children's fun. This time it was just my partner and me enjoying a relaxing getaway, and we are completely smitten. We'll definitely bring our daughter and the whole family next time, and we'll certainly ask concierge Ethan to arrange our itinerary again! I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a short, relaxing getaway in the Beijing suburbs or a family trip. Whether it's the facilities or the thoughtful service, it's absolutely worth making a special trip!

To experience the authentic courtyard atmosphere, I specifically chose the hotel's Hutong Suite. Outside, Beijing was freezing, but as soon as I entered the room, I was instantly warmed. The bedding was incredibly comfortable, and in the evening, they even provided a complimentary wellness tea and special small snacks, which was a very thoughtful touch! In the morning, I also enjoyed the hotel's breakfast in-room dining service, recharging for the day in the ancient-style room. A special shout-out to Chloe and Willow, thank you for your warm and attentive service. I will definitely choose to stay here again next season!

Four years later, I'm back to experience the Waldorf Astoria's Steiff Enchanted Forest themed suite! Last time I stayed in a terrace suite, and while this one is a bit smaller, it's still full of childlike wonder. From check-in, every staff member was incredibly proactive and enthusiastic, especially Chloe and Willow, who were exceptionally thoughtful and attentive. The delivery of desserts and the welcome bear visit times were all arranged in advance. The room also came with a cute bear bag and a teddy bear toy 🧸. Last time we were here for our wedding anniversary, and this time for a birthday – the hotel really excels at making special occasions memorable. Although the room isn't huge, it's fully equipped with all the amenities, including two bathrooms and a super spacious bathtub.

Bringing my parents and kids along, choosing this hotel was such a smart move! The service was incredibly attentive, the surroundings were beautiful, and we even got a free upgrade to a suite – the whole family was thrilled. My child was participating in the Spartan race, and the hotel provided a special shuttle service, which was a huge convenience. The food was delicious, and breakfast used high-quality ingredients. My kids even loved the hotel's handicraft class. The window view overlooks the lake at the Beijing Expo Park, with mountains in the distance – the scenery is absolutely stunning, making our stay incredibly comfortable!

A butler was waiting for us while we parked, showing exceptional service. Upon checking in at the lobby, we were offered complimentary snacks and drinks. To my delight, they upgraded our room for free, allowing for a better view of Yanqi Lake. The room table had fruit and wine, and the butler had even prepared aromatherapy. Surprisingly, the bathroom floor was also thoughtfully equipped with a non-slip mat. The butler also brought our luggage to our room, and to my surprise, given the slightly chilly temperature, they even brought down a warm coat from the car – incredibly considerate! We had initially mentioned needing to get our luggage, but only remembered when they went to retrieve it, and then they thoughtfully brought us the warm coat! We also participated in an afternoon cultural tour, which provided a deeper understanding of the hotel's design style and philosophy. The food was excellent, and the hotel facilities, cleanliness, and environment were superb! Not to mention the butler's service – it was exceptional! I highly recommend this hotel to families visiting Yanqi Lake. If we go again in the future, we will definitely choose Yanbai Mountain Villa again!

I stayed at the Yanqi Hotel for the last two days of the May Day holiday. I thought there would be fewer people as the holiday was winding down, but even at this price, the hotel was still fully booked. The hotel is divided into a main building and a villa area. The main building isn't large, only three stories, which makes getting around more convenient. The villa area is quiet and secluded, offering more privacy. It's managed by the Kempinski Group, just like the Sunrise Kempinski. If you're staying at Sunrise Kempinski, you can register your car plate to access the island. If you just want to explore Yanqi Island, booking afternoon tea also grants you access. While hiking from the P5 parking lot of the Xishan Trail, I kept looking at the Yanqi Pagoda and the lawn on the island. After visiting in person, I found the scenery was indeed as beautiful as the pictures. However, staying here solely for the view isn't very cost-effective, as a room in the main building for 3000-4000 RMB a night is quite high. Overall, I didn't experience the level of service expected from a five-star hotel, likely due to the large holiday crowds. The food was even more disappointing. Both breakfast and the dinner buffet didn't live up to five-star standards, leading to a very poor experience.

Pros: 1. The room is spacious, with two beds comfortably accommodating 4 people, plus a bunk bed. 2. The view is fantastic, offering an unobstructed panorama of the entire dam and Yanqi Lake. 3. There are plenty of toys for kids, which my children absolutely loved. They are also of good quality and include a star projector, a slide, and a small tent. 4. The location is excellent, making it convenient to explore the dam, and bicycle rentals are available. 5. The electronic amenities seem good, like the Bose speaker system, although I didn't get a chance to use it. Cons: 1. The details are far from what you'd expect from a five-star hotel. For instance, there's no non-slip mat in the shower area, nor any plastic non-slip slippers, making it very easy to slip. The toilet is old and crooked, which is frankly speechless. The shower also flooded into the main bathroom area. For a room meant for five people, there was only one tiny trash can that filled up quickly. 2. There's no room service. I could understand if it was busy, but when I went to the restaurant, it was mostly empty with only one or two tables occupied. 3. The complimentary water and drinks provided were also quite subpar.

I can’t recommend China World Summit Wing, Beijing, managed by Shangri-La, highly enough. As someone who has stayed at many of the world’s finest hotels, the level of care my son and I received here truly stood out. If you’re visiting Beijing, this is the hotel I would recommend without hesitation. Perched at the top of Beijing’s tallest hotel, the views are spectacular—but what impressed me most was the people. My son only likes one particular variety of apple. After Christina, the restaurant manager, noticed this, she quietly made sure that two of his favorite apples were prepared for him every single day so he would never be disappointed. It’s such a small gesture, yet it speaks volumes about the genuine care this team has for its guests. Another unforgettable moment happened at the spa. My son became so relaxed during his treatment that he fell fast asleep. Rather than waking him, Emma and Lily from the spa gently carried him all the way back to our room on the 17th floor so he could continue sleeping peacefully. Luxury is beautiful design and breathtaking views. True luxury is when people care about you without being asked. Thank you, Christina, Emma, Lily, and every member of the team for making our stay so memorable. We will absolutely be back.

Hotel Éclat Beijing truly lives up to its reputation! My stay in the Premier Terrace Deluxe King Room was absolutely perfect. The room was spacious and bright, and the terrace was incredibly comfortable. Being under the glass dome of Parkview Green, you get to enjoy natural light without worrying about the weather. A special thank you goes to Damon Willram for his thoughtful service. From check-in, he was exceptionally professional and enthusiastic, thoroughly explaining the hotel's facilities and the surrounding area. He even helped us with a late check-out, making the entire process incredibly smooth. The hotel itself is an art museum, with masterworks everywhere. The art tour service was very professional, giving us a deeper understanding of these pieces. The travel photographer was also very skilled, and the photos turned out wonderfully. Breakfast offered a wide variety and tasted excellent. I will definitely choose to stay here again on my next visit to Beijing!

I've always loved the high-altitude city views at Park Hyatt, and Concierge Legorie's service left a deep impression. The online communication throughout was incredibly smooth; they confirmed my arrival arrangements in advance, and any requests I had after checking in were handled efficiently and appropriately. The room was quiet and comfortable, with fantastic views from the floor-to-ceiling windows. The concierge was enthusiastic yet discreet, not bothering me too often, which was both peaceful and thoughtful. Highly recommended for any trip.
