Our stay in Beijing was all part of our package holiday with Airtours. The Marriott hotel was excellent. The room we had was amazing - huge. Some people in our party ended up with suites.
There isn't a great deal to see around the hotel - there is a Pizza Hut next door and then a few shops but nothing else. You would have to get a taxi to the main parts of Beijing - but the transport is very cheap. It's worth staying here for the hotel. Breakfast was buffet style - with a huge choice. There was definately something for everyone.

Stayed at the hotel for 8 nights. Booked the executive floor with lounge access. The rooms are nice - the suites even nicer. My shower was not hot enough in a standard room after 2 days and was I moved to a suite with no additional charges. The lounge was good. English was at a pretty good level for the hotel staff. Food in the restaurant was good and they provided several "western" choices that were tasty. I'm told the Chinese restaurant provided more Cantanoese style food. The hotel manager was very nice, friendly and humouous. Over all very good place to stay.

The hotel room was nice. Generally the hotel staff was very nice especially when it was my birthday when they sent a cake. There were two complaints that I had of the hotel.

1. The bathroom was not very clean.
2. The location of the hotel was not in the best area

Our family stayed at this beautiful hotel for 4 days. The staff was excellent and tended to our every need. Because we had a group of 8, we were upgraded to suites. The suites were two levels with two bedrooms, including a jacuzzi tub.

The tour group they booked us with was excellent. The shows they recommended were outstanding. It is centrally located, not too far from anything we wanted to see.

The food in the restaurant was delicious and safe to eat and again the staff was very accomodating.

We truly enjoyed our stay and hope you will too.
