"This new hotel is an excellent addition to the city center: It's right beside the shopping paradise of Wangfujing... and within walking distance of the Forbidden City and Tian'an Men Square."

The breakfast spread is excellent, but avoid the in-house restaurants for lunch and dinner -- both serve disappointing, lackluster fare.
Rough Guide
"Newly refitted, luxurious and upscale, near the shopping district of Wangfujing, with an impressive gym and pool."
Condé Nast Traveler
"Set in the heart of Beijing’s shopping district, the three-year-old hotel is convenient to trips to the Forbidden City and art galleries."

The 14 connecting rooms should be requested two weeks in advance, however, to guarantee availability.

"Though it's a bit shabby, institutional and lacking in atmosphere, this HI-affiliated hostel has some of the cheapest private rooms in town."
