Oustanding in every respect. Valley Wing Club and rooms are outstanding and service impeccable. Faultless. more

Great staff and nice lobby. Rooms of average proptions though. Well stocked tea/cofee making facillities. Large beds and very comfy mattresess. However it is a bit far away from touristy bits of the city. Overall no major complaints, however impersonal and a bit cold like many large sized chain hotels! more

We spent three nights at the very beautiful Beijing Shangrila. Excellent staff- some with good English! Our twin-room on the 24th floor was very comfortable and spacious. Powerful shower and TV with BBC, HBO and ESPN for us to catch the US Open Golf! Breakfast was fantastic. A huge selection of Western and a several Chinese dishes. They have a... more

Great buffet breakfasts and deal for this hotel, especially during the 1-week Mid-Year China Holiday in which all hotels in the financial district had large discounts. Buffet breakfasts at this Shangri-La were excellent. Connected to a mall, for convenience. Only minus: Membership program was poor. We stayed 10 nights, only to be offered the opportunity to *start* a membership (and... more

They must have recently updated the rooms and infrastructure as everything was clean and new(ish). The rooms were large and the beds had nice linens. Good bath products and decent towels. The breakfast buffet is varied if a little bland, but the traditional Chinese fare was very good. Give congee a whirl. The gym and spa facilities were extremely nice... more

I attended a conference at the hotel and found it to be grand, flashy and another really big, expensive hotel. There was nothing wrong with it but it offered an experience that was repeatable at virtually any big hotel in the world. It had Chinese folks working and a Chinese garden but had that "global" feel that is universal. The... more

Booked this hotel as an Oceania pre-cruise option, hence I didn't choose the hotel, it was the only one offered. This hotel and its sister in Kowloon where we stayed after the cruise, couldn't be more different. Where Kowloon was in the thick of it, this hotel is so far removed from the centre of Beijing that you might as... more

I can not believe that this hotel does not fall higher up in the ratings for hotels in Beijing. Over the past few years, we have stayed in quite a few Shangri La hotels, but was least looking forward to staying here becasue of the reviews. The hotel itself is smaller than some of the others and is a taxi... more

We spent 3 days here at the end of March. Our room was in the tower and was, by American standards, a little small. In UK terms it was quite spacious. The bed a full kIng size was very comfortable and the room was very quiet. The bathroom had a shower separate from the bath a real personal plus point.... more
