Cannot understand some of the other poor reviews, overall this is a great hotel. Did my research and chose this hotel from loads of others and glad I did. Got ripped off when leaving Beijing Airport from a useless taxi driver and charged £30, 3 x the normal amount. Dont use a black taxi use the ones with the price... more

I did my homework on Tripadvisor and selected this hotel out of countless hotels in Beijing. I really hit the jackpot. The hotel is located away from the noise of Beijing streets and is a welcome place to call home after a day filled with seeing the sights. You can count on a peaceful night of rest in outstanding accommodations.... more

No attention to detail at this hotel. Spoke to Michael Lucas who I found pompous and condescending in his approach. I can only hope that this General Manager falls victim to the ever expanding recession. Maybe a back to basics realisation is what this Manager needs. more

Stayed at this hotel based on other reviews and the Top Value rating. We were very satisfied with the hotel and its staff, but any savings on the cost of the hotel were eaten up by the time and expense of traveling to the major attractions. more

We spent 6 nights in Beijing as part of a tour and this hotel was fantastic. The hotel staff was very friendly and helpful and there were enough people who spoke English to make it easy to communicate. We enjoyed the breakfast buffet every morning along with the beautiful view overlooking the garden behind the hotel. Each night when we... more

Coming to China for the second time, I was excited about meeting more friendly people and the Mercure did not disapoint. The entire staff, from busboy and maid to front desk and general manager exceeded service and friendliness. I have traveled the world over and stayed at all the major hotels, and never have I seen such integrity, honesty, genuine... more

Our stay at the Mercure Wanshang hotel in Beijing was a great experience. Being of a more than reasonable price to start off, we were expecting our hotel in China to be ok with a bed and hot water (all we thought we needed); however we were surprised to find that our hotel was magnificent!! Every need was catered for;... more

I am writing this review on our 3rd day at the hotel - using the excellent (and free) internet connection. Before we reserved the room I did my usual search for reviews and found nothing useful. Unfortunately, the photos on the Hotel's website are generic ones from European locations that do not do justice to the beautifully finished interior. For... more

I had such a great stay at the Mercure Wanshang in Beijing. As an individual who has travelled to China before, it was by far the best hotel experience I've ever had. The staff was extremely hospitable and were eager to help with whatever problem I encountered. The manager, Michael, was visible at all times and made me feel very... more
