I just returned from China and spent about 9 nights at this hotel, using it as my base as I traveled around China. The one main reason for staying is the Concierge "Storm" - he made sure we had a unique experience. The first week I thought the hotel was too far from the center but by the second week... more

We read the review on trip advisor - that complimented the concierge - Storm, As we had no previous experience of China we began a dialogue via email with him - he composed a comprehensive itinery for our trip, We stayed at the hotel which was excellent - But never - in all my International luxury hotel experience have I... more

We had a little trouble initially with our reservation but the Holiday Inn more than made up for it by giving us a room upgrade with access to the executive club (free wireless, free food) and free breakfasts each morning! We stayed for 3 nights and the rate was incredibly low. Then there was Storm, the incredible concierge. He would... more

This hotel was really very nice. I stayed for 3 nights, then flew to Xi'an and came back for 1 more night before leaving China. The service was excellent, the staff very friendly and professional - and very stylish uniforms, I must say! The hotel itself is pretty impressive. I did not have any chance to visit the bar and... more

Spent 4 great nights at the HICP. When we came in at 9:30 pm from New York, we were utterly exhausted. The front desk was helpful, and check-in moved quickly. We ordered room service, which came quickly, and the food was delicious. We collapsed, and slept very well. The hotel was quiet, the room had plenty of space and amenities,... more

We booked the Holiday Inn Central Plaza for 3 nights early June after reading the reviews on tripadvisor. We got a great rate in April $90/night (we had to prepay our booking to lock in the rate). We had already arranged for a private car/guide prior to our arrival to Beijing so we did not need to enlist the services... more

HInn Central Plaza was so disappointing!! As mentioned in many other reviews, cabbies dont know of the whereabout of HI Zhong Huang (in Mandarin) nor whereabout of Caiyuen jia, the address in Chinese. The physical property still seems ok. Ooooh the TripAdvisor 2006 trophy takes pride of place in the lobby. BUT this hidden gem of 2006 is fast fading..... more

I booked this hotel based on the reviews. We never met the infamous Storm even though the reviews on his service were the final factor in booking this hotel. The rooms are exceptionally clean and inviting. I do not know about the location and it did not really matter because taxis are readily available and very inexpensive. This is definitely... more

My hasband and I had a really relaxing stay at this hotel. I will come back agian! more
