“Don’t overlook Hilton Beijing Wangfujing Hotel”

In terms of location, Wangfujing is Beijing’s key shopping area with vibes very similar to Times Square in New York, Oxford Street in London and Boulevard Haussmann in Paris.

In terms of location, Wangfujing is Beijing’s key shopping area with vibes very similar to Times Square in New York, Oxford Street in London and Boulevard Haussmann in Paris. In fact, Hilton Beijing Wangfujing Hotel is within 200 yards of Apple Store on one side and Waldorf Astoria Beijing Hotel on the other. It is unmistakably American in style except that the Executive Lounge here is much better in that it offers the usual generous club benefits outside North America to Hilton Honors members with status. Rooms are very large by European standard - probably over 50% larger than the same category of rooms in, say, Hilton Hague Hotel or Hilton Paris Opera Hotel (both are excellent too). Hilton Wangfujing looks like it has been recently renovated. The breakfast spread is reasonably good but the restaurant breakfast service staff could be more diligent. For dinner, the in-house Chinese Restaurant is surprisingly good in terms of service, quality of food, ambience and price. I particularly like the upscale bright modern Chinese design of the restaurant and the beautiful contemporary table setting. The Peking Duck is divine here, especially when you see more staff per duck to look after you. I initially had some minor issues with the hotel but they were quickly dealt with professionally by their senior management - thanks to Ms Ivanka Zhang. The overall hotel experience is very good. I would recommend Hilton Beijing Wangfujing Hotel.

Amazing service and large comfortable rooms. We recently stayed here for 2 nights and booked 3 rooms for us and extended family. Emily at check-in made the process very efficient and also proactively applied our Diamond benefits for room upgrade and lounge access. Aimee and team at the lounge went above and beyond to help us special order menu items for our child and also helped us retrieve a bag of valuables when we had left in a hurry. Super honest and wonderful service. As a final bonus, the heated pool temperature was the most comfortable out of all our China hotel stays. Would 100% recommend this hotel for its wonderful staff and convenient location.

Thank god for google translate as this is a welcomed choice of interaction between us both that helped both parties.

“Large comfy room, but would benefit from some updating”

Our room was absolutely massive, with a separate dressing area, toilet cubicle, shower room, and a very spacious room that contained a free standing bath and basin - all of which was newly updated, and had sliding doors which opened on to the main bedroom. However, the main bedroom itself was very dated, with a very old-style mirrored drinks wardrobe (but including a fridge with water and soft drinks, plus kettle), and a desk with connections for fax/modem etc! However, despite being old, it was all spotlessly clean, with housekeeping keeping everything perfectly tidy and replenishing water and toiletries. The bed was big and comfy, and a plug in power unit provided USB points. The room was a bit warm for my liking even when the aircon was set on the lowest setting, but it was bearable. We had actually booked a twin king room, but got a toom with a single king plus sofa, but we were able to check in early, so didn't grumble! Staff were friendly, and most spoke reasonable English. Breakfast had a very wide selection for many nationalities, but I was slightly disappointed with the quality compared with other Hiltons - the bakery items in particular seemed very stale, and with very limited selection. Location was perfect and easy to walk to the Forbidden City, and main shopping district and many restaurants on the doorstep, including in the neighbouring apm shopping centre. Dengshikou subway station was less than a 10 minute stroll, while Wangfujing station was also easily walkable.
