This hotel is what every hotel in Beijing--and all of China--should be measured against. The location is perfect, the rooms are comfortable, and the swimming pool is paradise. There was even a wonderful breakfast restaurant in the Oriental Plaza mall called Paris Baguette that provided a relaxing atmosphere to start the morning off right. Every dollar spent at this hotel was well worth it.

My parents & I went to Beijing in July - which was unbelievably hot & humid. It was the kind of weather when you sweat when you walked out the door!

This hotel was amazing. Our room - well that was SMALL but it was ok since only went there to sleep.

There was a mall connected to the hotel. That was fun. Great little restaurants. Perfect after a day of sighseeing!

The fitness center and pool were unbelievable! I had never seen an indoor pool like that!

My Mum and I stayed here for 3 nights last month and have nothing but good things to say. We treated ourselves to a two bedroom suite as we had been traveling for a couple of weeks, sleeping in cramped rooms and overnight trains. The suite was amazing. Immaculately decorated and furnished. Kitchen, two bathrooms, large lounge and two bedrooms. Beds were very comfortableWe were in seventh heaven !.

The hotel ittself is beautiful and I suggest you visit their website to see for yourself. The Oasis pool and gym are amazing.

The staff were friendly and bilingual as you would expect at the level of hotel.

The Hyatt is well positioned for shopping, sightseeing and subway.

We just returned from our 9 day trip in Beijing and split our stay between Hyatt and Westin, spending 5 nights in the formal, 3 the latter. We booked a 2 bedroom grand deluxe via the Hyatt website and from the net, it looked like we were going to get two standard rooms that were interconnecting, that's all . So imagine my surprise when we were shown to a unit with not only two BR, but also a huge sitting area as well as a kitchenette. I later found out that this room type was actually a suite with an interconnecting room. Well, whatever it is, it suited us fine. I had picked the hotel for its location alone but ended up liking it better than the two suites we were to have later at Westin.

We booked the family package which included some welcoming gifts for the kids but I had to remind the staff about it after check in when it did not materialise.Well, this minor glitch was soon ammended and the kids were thrilled to get their pandas, lolipops and ice cream.What a great way to start our holidays!

The staff are very well trained and professional, not all speak good English but they do try . House keeping is efficient and prompt. The room is kept very clean and on several occasions when i've requested for extra towels, they were delivered in no more than 10 mins . The room always smell good as they put fresh lillies on the foyer and bathrooms.

The breakfast buffet offers a good variety of western as well as Asian choices.The kids loved the fruit bar especially. I did hear another guest complain about the lack of daily changes which is true but that didn't bother us even after 5 days as there were so much to choose from.

I have planned to eat out in different local restaurants but ended up eating almost only in the hotel as the restaurants were all so good.We especially liked the Noble Court and Made In China. Actually, we liked Made in China best and won't mind eating all our meals there had it not been that reservations were SO hard to get.My son highly recommends their Peking Duck.

The pool is very well appointed and the kids enjoyed it very much.The spa and sauna is also nice but one attendent who seemed to be in charge of the spa area was quite rude to me on one occasion so I kinda stayed away from it throughout the rest of our stay there.However, that was just one lone incident, the rest of the hotel staff were freindly and more than helpful.

The conceirge were also very knowlegeable and helped out alot with our itinerary.

All in all, a good stay and i would highly recommend it to families travelling with young children.

PS:The hotel provides kid sized bath robe,which is another reason why i'd recommnd it to families.
