We stayed here for 2 nights - beautiful property - only opened approximaly 6 months ago. Lots of staff who are happy to help. Booked their car transfer from the airport - staff meet you directly off the plane - take you to immigration, baggage claim and out to car. It was quite expensive when a taxi is about a fifth of the price - however we had a late arrival. Hotel room was everything you needed - very modern - great bathroom - once again - sofitel have the most comfortable beds. Great location. Concierge booked us a private tour at 10.30pm at night - tour guide picked us up at 8am next morning - very efficient. Going to Beijing - give this hotel a try!

Great new hotel, standard rooms very large nicely decorated , great features like rain shower and tv in bathroom . Lobby is very grand Restaurants way too expensive service only just above average I would expect better from 5 star.Location not that great but you need a taxi to most locations anyway.

New and stylish. Location wise, not too bad, within walking distance to the subway station. Walmart and departmental store nearby. Cinema next door. Food at the restaurants were mediocre though. Staff were still new. inexperienced but eager to help. Rooms were extremely stylish and comfortable. Nice toileteries and good quality in-room slippers. FREE INTERNET!!!!!!!! two thumbs up...

This is a new Sofitel as part of the Wanda Centre, on the airport side of Beijing by the Third Ring Road. It cost about 70 RMB by taxi from the airport. We booked Deluxe rooms (as always in Asia, 'deluxe' means the smallest room in the hotel) but the room was large and the bed huge. Two TVs in the room, one by the bed and one by the bath. Interactive service sporadic, but TV signal fine with CNN, BBC and TV5. Kettle in room which was good, given that breakfast was 200 RMB. Free broadband, both cabled and WiFi was also appreciated. Bathroom huge with rain shower, big bath etc. Huge safe in the room which fitted a laptop and more. Only sorry that I had one day here so didn't have time to use the other facilities. Hotel is 5 mins walk from a metro stop (Dawangli on Line 1) and you can be at Tiananmen Square in 10 mins for 2RMB ticket. Behind the hotel is a WalMart supermarket, a Starbucks and a New World Department Store. All in all, very impressed indeed. Oh, and the room was only 1240 RMB a night (from the website of the hotel).

Had a too fast one night stay at this hotel - I found it excellent. The hotel is brand spanking new and is one of the flagships of the Sofitel brand which is now being postioned by their owners as their global luxury brand. Service was impeccable (although I wasnt particularly demanding), rooms were clean, comfortable and luxurious, and breakfast was good. Highly recommended.
